It seems that we sparked a little bit of excitement when we posted our review of Profit Accumulator, with many people getting in touch with us to thank us for our uniquely blunt, honest approach and for finally revealing the things that many others try to hide about their service.

Because of this, we thought it was only fair to review their biggest competitor: Oddsmonkey.
In this Oddsmonkey review you will find zero bullsh**; only honest facts in order to help you make an informed opinion on the best Matched Betting site for you.
General Overview of Oddsmonkey
Matched betting isn’t a new concept. In fact, it has been around on the fringes of mainstream exposure a few years before Oddsmonkey decided to make the game their own – however, they’re certainly causing a lot of disturbance in the industry.
Originally providing their oddsmatcher to other matched betting sites, Oddsmonkey decided in April 2016 that they wanted to Offer the full package.
Not only this…
They wanted to do it better than anyone else.
Providing the best value for customers was their aim, offering a range of tools that were unique to the site and freely including them in their subscriptions.
Most matched betting sites charge extra for additional products that assist with matched betting.
They offer two pricing tiers of Oddsmonkey premium; £15 per month or £150 per year.
All tools are included in each version of their premium membership, and you can get a forever-free trial by signing up through this link.
How Does Oddsmonkey Work?
Oddsmonkey are a matched betting service that post bookmaker offers online every single day – collating each and every offer from over 100 different bookies.
Not only this, but they post up the exact method to lock in a profit on almost every single one of these offers – meaning every member makes a profit week in, week out.
Many people – including ourselves – make four figure profits comfortably every single month by using their service.
They have several tools that we have reviewed below in more detail:
Tools & Services
As previously stated, all tools that Oddsmonkey have developed are included in their premium membership.
So, without further ado, let’s get reviewing Oddsmonkey’s products and service…
Tutorials & Training
In terms of beginner training, Oddsmonkey will take you through the entire matched betting process from start to finish.
This includes videos and written guides to help you complete your very first offer, right through to completing more complex, high-earning offers.
Even the most simple offers can earn you a few hundred quid to complete, so they’re well worth doing. You can actually earn £45 risk-free during their free trial.
Oddsmatcher
The oddsmatcher was the original Oddsmonkey product – the thing that kept many matched betting sites running smoothly…
It really threw a spanner in the works when Oddsmonkey decided to start their own matched betting service!
Sites like Profit Accumulator didn’t really know what to do with themselves, and rushed out their own sub-par oddsmatcher.
Oddsmonkey’s oddsmatcher is still without a doubt the best odds search there is – it will find every bet you need to place to complete any type of basic offer.
That’s right:
You don’t need to worry about finding your own bets.
The oddsmatcher will find them for you – easy!
Matched Betting Calculator
Oddsmonkey provide a simple betting calculator which tells you the exact stake to bet once you have entered the odds into it.
The calculator will inform you of how much profit you will make regardless of the outcome of the event.
The oddsmatcher and the calculator is all most people need when first introduced to matched betting, and the two tools alone can earn you over £1,000 in profit.
Horse Racing Matcher
Lots of matched betting reload offers (the offers that you start after you’ve completed the sign-up bonuses) take place on horse races.
Because there are so many horse races each day, it can be easy to lose track of which races have offers on them and which don’t.
The horse racing matcher was designed to filter out any race that didn’t have an offer on them, and filters out all of the bookmakers that aren’t running promotions on each race too.
This means you can find horse racing matches with ease when you move onto the reload offers – and this is where the real money is.
Each Way Matcher
Sticking with the same sport, Oddsmonkey also have an extra place horse racing oddsmatcher.
This tool is without a doubt the biggest benefit of a subscription with the company.
‘Extra place’ races are when bookmakers offer you 5 places each way instead of 4. Sometimes, they’ll be more generous and offer you 6, or 7, or maybe even 8 places on events like the Grand National.
With matched betting, you can hit a huge payout on these races for minimal risk, if your horse lands in the additional or ‘extra’ place.
Thanks to the each way matcher, you can cover the entire field of horses – or close to it – to guarantee that a horse of yours lands in an additional place.
Additional places are often worth hundreds of pounds in profit each time one lands, and without this tool it can be extremely difficult to cover more than a couple of horses at most.
Each way races aren’t for matched betting newcomers, and come once you are fully comfortable with the matched betting process – probably one or two months after you start up and have built your bankroll to a good level.
Acca Matcher
Would you like to make a profit on every single accumulator you ever place?
It sounds unbelievable – believe me when I say I’ve been told it isn’t possible on more than one occasion!
However, with the acca matcher, you have multiple ways to make immediate and long-term profits on your accumulators.
Like extra places, acca offers aren’t for newcomers to matched betting – they are something that comes once you are fully comfortable with matched betting, reload offers and extracting maximum value from your free bets.
With the acca matcher, you have the option to:
Lock in a small profit from the start…
Risk a small qualifying loss for a bigger profit along the way, or…
Use their +EV ‘no lay’ accas that actually will earn you money long-term, even though you are essentially ‘gambling’. We weren’t sure about their no-lays at first, but after placing around 500 of them, we are comfortably in profit and can back them up.
Locking in a profit from the start is the most common and popular form of accumulator betting on OM – who wouldn’t want to earn a profit from every accumulator they ever place?!
Dutching Searcher
Dutching is similar to backing and laying, but instead of placing your back and lay bet, you instead place multiple back bets at different bookmakers.
This can help you to look like more of a mug bettor at various bookies at the same time, and it can actually help you to create arbitrage opportunities too.
The dutching software makes it incredibly easy to find two or three bookies with close odds to guarantee a profit or miniscule qualifying loss when completing reload offers.
Matched Betting Community Forum
We praised the forum on PA for being thriving, but our Oddsmonkey forum review would have to be this: simple, efficient, effective.
It’s not too busy with people posting matches – but there are their tools to solve this anyway, without having to waste time searching through comments for answers.
What it does have is plenty of people from the OM staff, along with tonnes of helpful users and moderators who post daily/weekly offers for everyone to jump on board with.
It’s not hard to filter out the social chatter from the offers, thanks to their daily offer calendar.
This means if you’re tight for time of an evening or weekend, you can quickly find the offers, place your bets and log out. Simple!
Support
We don’t say this lightly…
Oddsmonkey gave us the best customer service we’ve ever received from a company. Ever.
Seriously.
Their email staff were so helpful, and when we had some initial fears we had a phone conversation that answered all of our questions.
We’ve never looked back since – and their service, along with their amazing value product, is what stands them apart from their competitors.
If you ever get stuck for any reason – whether that be with an offer, with your membership or anything else – they are more than willing to lend a hand.
Success Stories
There are absolutely thousands of Oddsmonkey success stories, but we decided to ask members of the site themselves what their own success story was.
We’ve cherry picked a few of the best ones to include here…
This guy managed to use matched betting with Oddsmonkey to fund a startup business:
Keeping things closer to home, one forum member had managed to save £5,000 towards a house deposit:
There were plenty of stories from people that have bought cars, paid for holidays and weddings – and even some that have wasted a lot of money enjoying themselves too!
And there was a touching story which we’re sure will resonate with a number of readers, and it was a big hit with other forum users on the Oddsmonkey site:
Conclusion
We give Oddsmonkey a full 5 out of 5 stars, compared to the 2 out of 5 we awarded to their biggest competitor in our Profit Accumulator review.
We absolutely recommend Oddsmonkey for your matched betting, and can comfortably say they offer the best value premium matched betting membership in the entire industry, with better products and significantly cheaper subscription fees than their biggest rivals.
With most of their rivals, you have to pay extra to get the tools you get with Oddsmonkey…
And they aren’t even as good!
In fact…
They don’t even come close.
