About this calculator
The formula is a direct rearrangement of the payout equation: stake = target total return ÷ decimal odds. Since a decimal odds payout is stake × odds, solving for the stake that produces a specific total return tells you exactly how much to risk to lock in a chosen return figure, and the resulting profit (return − stake) and return-on-stake percentage fall straight out of the same numbers.
Sports bettors doing matched betting or arbitrage use this to size a back or lay stake precisely when covering multiple outcomes across bookmakers or an exchange, while bonus-hunters and value bettors use it to work out exactly how much they need to stake on a free bet or promotion to convert it into a guaranteed, fixed cash return.
