Laying Accas on Smarkets

Learn how to lay accumulator bets on Smarkets using their Multiples feature.

What this feature does

Smarkets lets you build a custom accumulator (they call them multiples) and lay it as one bet. That means you can back the acca at a bookmaker and lay the exact same acca at Smarkets in a single go.

Add each team/selection to the betslip, then switch to Sell to lay the acca.

Step-by-step

1) Build your acca at the bookmaker and note the final decimal odds.
2) On Smarkets, search each match and click the green box (buy/back button) on each selection to add it to the betslip.
3) In the betslip, switch from Buy to Sell, which turns it into a lay acca.
4) Note the combined lay odds shown for the acca.
5) Open your calculator (normal back-lay mode), enter the bookmaker acca odds, the Smarkets lay odds, your stake, and your commission rate.
6) Copy the lay stake from the calculator into the bottom stake box under the Multiples section and place your lay.

Standard Calculator
If Smarkets shows a maximum stake message, reduce your lay stake to that amount (it means there isn’t enough availability to lay more right now).

Small example

Back acca at bookie (free bet), lay acca at Smarkets

Back £20 FREE BET (SNR) at 4.50 with the bookmaker. Lay the same acca at 4.60 on Smarkets (0% commission).
Calculator returns lay stake ≈ £15.22 and liability ≈ £54.78.
Equal profit either way ≈ £15.22 (rounded). Actual results vary with odds and exchange limits.

Checks before you confirm

• Selections match exactly (same teams/markets on both sides).
• Order and legs count are the same on both slips.
• You entered decimal odds and the correct commission rate.
• Liquidity/availability is sufficient for your lay stake.
• You’re happy with the calculator’s expected profit or qualifying cost.

Still unsure?

If you are still struggling with the Smarkets Acca Laying feature, you should read through the official Smarkets guide below.

Other methods to lay an accumulator

There is also a more advanced method to laying accumulators which doesn't require high liquidity on the exchange. This method is 'Sequential Laying' and it requires all selections to be at different times without overlapping kick-off/finish times. Read the guide below to learn how to do it.
