1. Start from the right image
For sports bets, use the original open bet slip, settled result screen, or completed cash-out screen. The useful image shows the bookmaker or exchange, event, selection, market, stake, odds, offer wording, and return or settlement amount where relevant.
2. Wait for processing
After upload, the tracker may show Processing / Upload received while the image is checked. Uploads are checked by scheduled MBT review passes at 10am, then hourly from 1pm to 11pm UK time. Outside those times, wait for the next review window. Then check the processed record against the bookmaker or exchange account before relying on the totals.
3. Keep open bets separate
Open bets should not be treated as profit or loss yet. Save them as Open, then update them later with a settled screenshot or use the result checker where the record has enough detail.
4. Use sources like folders
Bet source is where the idea came from, such as Outplayed bets, Non-offer bets, Non-offer casino, Casino Offers, AI Bot, Price Boost, Matched betting, or your own custom categories. You can add your own source, then rename or delete only custom sources later. If a deleted source has records attached, those records move back to Unassigned.
5. Use the source-specific fields
Non-offer bets usually need one bookmaker screenshot. If that bet was already layed on an exchange, leave Did you lay this bet? as No unless the answer is Yes; choosing Yes asks for the exchange lay screenshot only. Price Boost needs the bookmaker boost screenshot and the exchange lay screenshot. Matched betting offers need the four labelled screenshots for qualifier, qualifier lay, free bet, and free-bet lay.
6. Manual P/L sources
Non-offer casino and Casino Offers do not need a screenshot. For casino, choose the bookmaker/casino from the saved operator dropdown, choose the product or offer type, then enter the approximate P/L as numbers only. AI Bot is informational in the upload form because those records should come from a connected bot rather than hand-entered figures.
7. Add the Outplayed method
When the source is Outplayed bets, choose the method as well: Singles, Multiples, Lucky 15s / system bets, Edge Finder, Steam Chaser, or Other / unsure. This keeps Outplayed results and Account Sustainability analysis clearer without changing how P/L is calculated.
8. Query rare mistakes
Processed, open, and settled records include Query bet. Use it when a record looks wrong after processing. Settled matched-betting calculations are left read-only; query them if the bookmaker, exchange, or calculation evidence needs a second check.
9. Review by one question at a time
Use Date view and the filters to answer one question: daily profit, weekly profit, rolling fortnight profit, monthly profit, all-time profit, Outplayed-only results, Lucky 15 records, open bets, or a specific bookmaker. The realised P/L label shows the active date range so you can see exactly what is being counted. Clear filters before starting the next review.
10. Treat official accounts as the truth
The tracker is for clean record keeping. If the tracker and bookmaker account disagree, check the official account, settlement rules, deductions, non-runners, voids, cash-outs, and exchange commission before editing the record.
