OrbitX review verdict Orbit Exchange:
Orbit Exchange:
who it suits.
OrbitX is built for bettors who want to choose a side, request a price and manage the position after the market moves.
Why choose an exchange?
Back an outcome, lay against it or request your own odds. The price ladder shows the money available to match, while the bet list keeps accepted positions and exposure in view.
Broker-managed access
AsianConnect88 handles your account, payments and support. That brings OrbitX and PS3838 together through one broker relationship.
Orbit Exchange sports and markets Choose the sport.
Choose the sport.
Read the market.
OrbitX covers football, tennis, cricket, horse racing, American football and basketball. The useful comparison is the available price and stake in your chosen market, after commission.
A team or a total?
A match-winner selection and an over/under line are separate markets. Choose the period and line first, then read the back and lay prices and the money available at each price.
Follow the market state
In-play prices respond to the score and market suspensions. Read the event's settlement rules and available depth before planning an entry or an opposing exit.
Read the exact outcome
Laying a runner to win means betting against that runner winning the race. Each market has its own outcome and rules; liquidity in another race or sport does not establish what you can match here.
For fixed-odds handicaps and totals, compare PS3838 sports and markets. For back-and-lay positions, use the net-odds calculator and the worked market example.

vs Betfair.
Both routes offer back-and-lay betting. The choice depends on the account you can open, its costs and the features you actually use.

|---|---|---|
| Account & funding | AsianConnect88 handles registration, verification, payments and account support. | Your Betfair account handles registration, verification, payments and support. |
| Commission & charges | 3% on positive net market profit. Broker payment fees are separate. | Commission and additional charges follow Betfair's account and country-specific fee rules. |
| Market depth | The money available at each price determines how much you can match. Market depth changes as orders enter, trade or leave the exchange. | |
| Eligibility | AsianConnect88 and platform conditions apply. | Betfair's country and account conditions apply. |
Our take: OrbitX is a practical fit when you want exchange trading alongside PS3838 through one broker. Direct Betfair access suits customers who prefer managing the exchange relationship themselves.
Use the commission calculator to compare the return after fees. The broker payment fees and account conditions explain the funding side.

and liquidity.
Three details shape the net result: commission, the price your bet matches at and the position you hold when the market settles.
3% on net market profit
OrbitX charges 3% on positive net market profit. Winning and losing positions in the same market are combined first: a 100€ net profit incurs 3€ commission and leaves 97€. A market finishing at a net loss carries no exchange commission.
A bet starts when it matches
An order becomes a bet when another customer matches it. The price ladder shows available money; the bet list shows the amount accepted. Matched market volume records previous trading activity.
Manage the exit and liability
Trading out uses an opposing bet at an available price. Liquidity, price movements and market suspensions affect the exit. Lay liability is the amount at risk: a 20€ lay stake at 4.00 creates 60€ of liability.
OrbitX odds after commission A bigger price.
A bigger price.
A better return?
Compare the return on the same selection after costs. This worked example uses a winning 100€ stake at sportsbook odds of 2.00 or exchange odds of 2.04.
| Example offer | Profit before commission | Commission | Net profit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sportsbook · 2.00 | 100€ | None separately charged in this example | 100€ |
| OrbitX · 2.04 · 3% | 104€ | 3,12€ | 100,88€ |
| Comparison rate · 2.04 · 5% | 104€ | 5,20€ | 98,80€ |
At 3%, the exchange price produces slightly more profit; at 5%, it produces less. For this single-bet example, effective decimal odds = 1 + (quoted odds − 1) × (1 − commission rate). Multiple positions in the same market require a market-level calculation.
The odds are example prices; 3% is the OrbitX rate through AsianConnect88, while 5% illustrates a higher comparison rate. The calculation uses one fully matched winning bet and no other market positions or charges.
Compare the PS3838 sportsbook and OrbitX exchange, then check the separate broker payment fees and withdrawal conditions.

After commission.
OrbitX through AsianConnect88 charges 3% on positive net market profit. Enter two quotes for the same selection and settlement rules to compare the return after commission. You can adjust the rate to compare other exchange offers.
- Sportsbook profit if it wins
- 100,00€
- Exchange profit after commission if it wins
- 100,88€
- Exchange commission if it wins
- 3,12€
- Exchange profit minus sportsbook profit
- +0,88€
Effective exchange odds: approximately 2.0088. Exchange odds needed to equal the sportsbook: approximately 2.0309.
This example uses one fully matched winning back bet, commission on positive net market profit and no other positions or charges. Profit excludes the returned stake. With several bets in one market, commission applies to their combined net result.
Backed and laid the same selection? See the two-position market example.
Back and lay in the same market Two positions.
Two positions.
One net result.
Suppose you back a selection for 100€ at 3.00, then lay the same selection for 150€ at 2.00. Both bets are fully matched in the same market. Here is how the 3% commission applies.
| Profit or loss | Selection wins | Selection loses |
|---|---|---|
| Back: 100€ at 3.00 | +200,00€ | −100,00€ |
| Lay: 150€ at 2.00 | −150,00€ | +150,00€ |
| Combined market profit | 50,00€ | 50,00€ |
| 3% commission | 1,50€ | 1,50€ |
| Profit after commission | 48,50€ | 48,50€ |
Commission is calculated on the 50€ combined market profit. Charging it separately on the winning bet would miss the offsetting loss from the other position.
Example prices with no other positions or charges. The lay bet carries 150€ liability. An unmatched or partly matched exit leaves a different exposure; the second price and full matching are assumptions of this example.

This OrbitX screenshot shows an in-play Over/Under 2.5 Goals market and one matched lay bet. The price ladder, market turnover and bet list answer different questions: what is available, what has traded, and what exposure the account already holds.
01 Read the ladder 02 Check matched bets 03 Calculate liability
- Matched volume is not available liquidity
- The market header shows 25,915.28 matched. That is traded volume, not an amount waiting for your next bet. The ladder separates Back, Lay and Traded columns: look at the available amount at your intended price rather than using the market total as a stake limit.
- The bet list shows a matched order
- Under Matched, the visible row is a lay of Over 2.5 Goals at 2.06 with a stake of 100.00. The accepted stake, price and selection define the position the account holds.
- A 100-unit lay can risk 106 units
- For the displayed bet, liability is 100 × (2.06 − 1) = 106 units. The −106 for Over and +100 for Under show the two possible outcomes before commission. The final market result determines whether commission is due.
Compare a back bet after fees with the commission calculator. For the exchange mechanics behind this example, see Betfair’s guide to odds, available amounts and lay liability.
Built for action An exchange

wants the volume.
Traditional bookmakers manage bettors. An exchange grows when customers keep trading.
OrbitX does not need to take the opposite side of your bet. It matches customers against each other and charges commission on the net profit from each settled market. Your activity adds liquidity to the market.
For price-sensitive bettors, that changes the relationship. You are not asking a bookmaker to accept your opinion. You are bringing liquidity to a marketplace.

Questions OrbitX,
OrbitX,
answered.
What is lay betting?
Backing is betting for an outcome. Laying is betting against it: you take the bookmaker side and win when the outcome does not happen. OrbitX gives you both options from one account.
How much commission does OrbitX charge?
OrbitX through AsianConnect88 charges 3% on positive net market profit. Winning and losing positions in the same market are combined before commission is calculated. A 100€ net market profit incurs 3€ commission, leaving 97€. There is no exchange commission on a market that finishes with a net loss.
Is OrbitX the same as Betfair?
OrbitX is a Betfair-powered white-label exchange available through AsianConnect88. It offers back and lay betting with broker-managed funding and support. A direct Betfair account has its own fee structure, tools and country eligibility.
Can I trade out before the event ends?
You can try to place an opposing bet or use available cash-out controls. An exit requires an open market and sufficient liquidity at an acceptable price. It is not guaranteed, and the resulting position can still be a loss.
Can I set my own odds on OrbitX?
Yes. Take an available price or submit your own and wait for another customer to match it. The market, not a bookmaker pricing desk, sets the odds.
How do I open an OrbitX account?
Register with AsianConnect88, complete identity verification and request OrbitX access. The broker manages funding and transfers between your supported betting accounts.
Is OrbitX available in my country?
Access is provided through AsianConnect88 and depends on your location and account eligibility. You remain responsible for complying with local law.
