Opening a Sportsbook
How ParlayPlug links to your sportsbook when you're ready to bet.
ParlayPlug doesn't place bets for you. When you're ready to bet, you open your sportsbook app separately.
How it works (iOS)
On iOS, some picks have an "Open in {book}" option. This uses deep links via OddsBlaze to open the sportsbook app.
Tap the accessibility label that says "Open in FanDuel" (or DraftKings, etc.) to launch that sportsbook.
Important: This opens the sportsbook app. It does not automatically place the bet or add it to your slip. You'll need to find the same bet in the sportsbook and add it manually.
When links aren't available
If a pick doesn't have a deep link:
- The pill may be inert (nothing happens when you tap)
- The Bet Slip may note that "some legs have to be added by hand"
This happens when:
- The sportsbook doesn't support deep linking for that bet type
- The prop isn't available at that book
- Technical limitations with the sportsbook's URL scheme
What ParlayPlug doesn't do
- It does not place bets for you
- It does not have access to your sportsbook account
- It does not handle deposits or withdrawals
- It cannot guarantee the odds will be the same when you open the book
Always verify the odds in your sportsbook before confirming any bet. Lines can move between when you saw them in ParlayPlug and when you place the bet.
