From login to bet settlement — how to place bets on 888starz, read odds and manage your budget, all in one place.

Find Markets and Learn to Read Odds
When you enter the Sports section on 888starz, markets are arranged by sport and league. Choose the market you prefer from various types such as match winner, total goals and handicap.
Odds can be displayed in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. The table below shows the same price in all three formats (all examples are for illustration purposes only and do not represent any guaranteed return):
| Format | Odds for Team A to Win | Stake ৳1,000 → Return |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | ৳2,500 (profit ৳1,500) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳2,500 (profit ৳1,500) |
| American | +150 | ৳2,500 (profit ৳1,500) |
A favourite's odds are generally lower. For example, if Team B is expected to win: decimal 1.25, fractional 1/4, American -400 — meaning a ৳1,000 stake returns ৳1,250 (profit of only ৳250). With American minus odds, the number tells you how much you need to stake to win ৳100.
Cricket markets generally do not have a draw option (in limited-overs matches). Example: Team A 2.10, Team B 1.75 — a ৳1,000 bet on Team B returns ৳1,750 if Team B wins (profit ৳750); if Team A wins, you lose ৳1,000. Learn more about cricket betting markets on 888starz.
Quick Guide to Reading Odds
- With decimal odds, multiply the stake by the odds to get the total return.
- With fractional odds, the first number is the profit and the second is the stake.
- American plus (+) means profit on a ৳100 stake. Minus (−) means how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit.
- The higher the odds, the less likely the outcome is considered to be.
- Handicap and over/under markets describe outcomes in words — there is no fixed stake or return.
How to Place a Single Bet and a Multi Bet
Clicking on the odds of any market automatically adds it to the bet slip. You will see the bet slip on the side or at the bottom of the screen. If there is only one selection, it is a single bet.
Adding multiple selections creates a multi bet (accumulator). The odds of all selections are multiplied together to form the combined odds — for example, three selections at 1.40, 1.50 and 1.60 give combined odds of 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.60 = 3.36 (approximate). A ৳100 stake returns ৳336 if all selections are correct — but if even one is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost.
Enter the stake amount in the bet slip, check the estimated return, then press the "Confirm Bet" button. Once a bet is confirmed it generally cannot be changed — so check your stake and selections before confirming.
Multi bet calculation — example with three selections
If even one selection is wrong, the entire stake is lost. These figures are for illustration purposes only and do not represent any guaranteed return.
Betting on Sports and Casino Games
Bet on Cricket, Football and More
888starz offers both live and pre-match markets. You can bet on domestic and international cricket leagues including BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup, as well as major football tournaments.
You can also bet in exchange format: BACK ৳500 on Team A and if Team A wins you make ৳750 profit before commission; if they do not win you lose ৳500. LAY means your liability is ৳750; if Team A does not win you make ৳500, but if they do win you pay ৳750 — before commission.
See the 888starz cricket betting guide for more details.
Bet on Live Casino and Slot Games
Betting on casino games works a little differently — in slots or live casino games you set your stake each round before the round begins. Payout depends on the game's RTP and volatility.
Visit the live casino and slots section on 888starz — it includes information on game types, RTP and game providers.
View Open and Settled Bet History
After logging in to your 888starz account, go to "My Bets" or "Bet History" and you will see two tabs — open bets and settled bets.
Open bets show when the event starts or the current score, the stake amount and the current potential return. Settled bets clearly show win or loss, and winnings from successful bets are added to your balance.
You can filter by date to view bets from a specific period. This is a simple way to track your spending — you can see your total stake and total return side by side.
For live bets, odds in in-play markets can change quickly. The odds shown at the moment of confirmation are final — even if odds move up or down afterwards, the bet you confirmed stays the same.
Set Your Budget and Limits in Advance
Betting is a form of entertainment — it should not be treated as a reliable source of income. Before you start, decide how much you will stake and where you will stop. Follow the responsible gaming guidelines.
Daily and Weekly Budget
Decide in advance the maximum amount you will stake each day or each week. Once you reach that amount, the session ends there.
Set a Time Limit
Betting for long stretches without a break reduces your ability to make good decisions. Take a break after a set amount of time.
Do Not Chase Losses
Placing a larger stake to recover a lost bet is not a sound approach. Each bet is independent.
The 888starz VIP programme offers weekly cashback, but it is not a tool for reducing losses — it is simply a reward. Learn more about 888starz VIP benefits.
