In what box are you entering 70%? Are you talking about fill %?

It applies to the £40. For example if £10 is matched initially then £10 will immediately be placed at 40 ticks below the matched odds. The tick offset will still be active at the point becase 40% of £40 (£28) is not matched. If another £18 or more gets matched and some of the £40 is still unmatched then another offset bet will be placed and the remaining unmatched back bet will be cancelled. ie. it is at least 40% filled. It is for you to decide if this is useful to you or not.

"Ticks = %" means that the number of ticks represents a percentage instead of ticks so if your back bet is matched at 2.8 then the lay bet will be placed at 40% of 2.8 which is 1.72.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
