How to Place a Bet on BettorEdge
Learn how to place a bet on BettorEdge using a market order, which takes the current available price instead of setting your own.
Before you start
- •Sign in to your BettorEdge account before starting this walkthrough.
- •Open the market you want to bet on and make sure trading is available.
- •This guide covers a market order, which uses the best available price at the time you submit.
Prerequisites
- •You need a funded BettorEdge account or an account eligible to place orders.
- •You should be on desktop web for the clearest view of the order ticket.
- •If you want to choose your own price, use a limit-order guide instead of this workflow.

Open the market where you want to place your bet
Navigate to the BettorEdge market you want to trade. In this example, the market is the NCAA Basketball Winner board.
- 2
Click the available price for the side you want
Select the current available price on the side you want to bet. This opens the order ticket and starts a market-order style flow using the available market price.
- 3
Enter your stake in the order ticket
Type the amount you want to risk or stake in the order form. For this walkthrough, the ticket is using a market order rather than a limit order with a custom price.
- 4
Review the market order details before you submit
Check the side, price, stake, and payout details in the ticket. If you want to set your own price instead of taking the current available one, stop here and use a limit order workflow instead.
- 5
Place the bet
Click the submit button on the ticket to place your market order at the best currently available price.

Confirm the order was fulfilled
After submission, review the confirmation state to make sure the order was filled. Order and position monitoring can be expanded in a separate guide focused on reviewing order or position status.
Tips
- •A market order takes the best currently available price instead of letting you set your own.
- •If your goal is to choose a specific price, place a limit order instead.
- •To check whether an order filled, stayed open, or how a position is performing, use a separate order and position status guide.
