How Parlotto works

Questions people ask before they try it

What is Parlotto?

Parlotto builds parlays that reach the biggest payout a sportsbook allows on one ticket. It reads the odds the books in your state already publish and, for each book, finds the combination of real lines that gets there.

Is it a picks or tipster service?

No. Parlotto does not predict who will win, sell picks or claim an edge. It searches prices and rules: which real lines, combined, reach a prize, and which book will pay it out. The odds are long, exactly as long as the combined price says.

Does Parlotto place bets?

No. Parlotto is not a sportsbook and never takes a bet. It cannot see your book account. Tap Load it and the ticket opens in that book's own app, where you place it with your own money.

Will I win?

Almost certainly not on any one ticket. A $1.00 ticket that pays a big prize needs every leg to win, and most tickets lose. Treat the entry as the price of a lottery ticket and stake only what you are happy to lose.

Where do the legs come from?

Every leg is a real line a licensed sportsbook in your state is offering right now, priced from that book's own board. Nothing is invented or filled in. Lines move, so check the slip in the book before you stake.

What does it cost?

The $1.00 entry is free to look at, with no account. Every other entry size and pack needs the Pass: $9.99 a month, or $79.99 a year.

How do I track a ticket?

Load a ticket in your book, then come back to Parlotto and tap Put it in My Tickets. It is graded as the games settle. Parlotto only knows what you tell it, because it cannot see your book.

Who can use it?

You need to be 21 or older, in a state where the book takes bets. Pick your state and tickets are built only from books that operate there. If gambling stops being fun, call 1-800-GAMBLER.
