Short answers about how WynFynd works. For the math, see the lessons.

Sites and prices

Which betting sites do you check?

Right now we have prices from 6 Ontario-registered betting sites: Betano, BetMGM, BetRivers, PointsBet, PROLINE+ and Sports Interaction. Not in our data: BET99, FanDuel, DraftKings, theScore Bet, Caesars, bet365, NorthStar Bets, 888sport and Betway. They are registered in Ontario. We don't have their prices, so no alert uses them. The list updates by itself. A site counts once we have had a price from it in the last 6 hours. Pinnacle's prices are used only as the fair-price reference for value bets, never as a bet in an alert.

Which sites can my alerts use?

Only sites legal in the province on your profile, and this can't be turned off. In Ontario that means the Ontario-registered sites. In British Columbia it is PlayNow, the only legal online site there, so only value bets work. Alberta gets no alerts until its sites' prices are in our feeds. You can also pick just the sites you have accounts at, in Alerts.

How old can a price be?

Every price shows how long ago we checked it, like "12s ago". On the lists, a bet whose oldest price is over 2 minutes old is marked stale. Prices can still change between our check and your bet. So always check the price on the site's bet slip before you confirm.

What is a big price move?

On the price chart, a marked move is a price whose chance changed by 3% or more within 10 minutes. Other sites often follow a move like that. So a price that has not moved yet can be worth a look.

Using WynFynd

What do the score, Go and Check first mean?

The score goes from 0 to 100. It is our guess of how likely a bet is to still be there when you place it. It comes from things like how old the prices are. Go is 70 or more, Check first is 40 to 69, Skip is below 40. A bet is also Skip when its amount is over your limit at a site. It is Skip during a big price move too. Your heat at a site can lower it. At heat 60 or more, a site's bets are never Go. At 75 or more they are Skip.

Does WynFynd place bets for me?

No. WynFynd finds the prices and works out the amount at each site. You place every bet yourself, in your own accounts. We never ask for your betting site login.

What is Bet next?

Bet next shows where the money at each site makes the most per hour. Profit is divided by the hours your money is tied up. That runs from now until the game should pay out: its start, plus a usual game length, plus 15 minutes. A small profit that pays back soon can beat a bigger one that ties your money up all night. It needs your balances to be right. Add them on the Money page, or answer What's left after you log a bet.

How does My bets know my results?

You log each bet. Tap Log both bets on a ticket or under the alert in Telegram. Or tap Add a bet in My bets. Main bets are then marked from the final score. You mark player props yourself. No betting site login is needed. You can download your bets as a spreadsheet file (CSV) from My bets.

Accounts and limits

Why do betting sites limit winners?

Betting sites are allowed to lower the most a customer can bet. Many do it to people who win often, or who bet both-sides bets and value bets. It is legal and common. Read when a site limits you for what makes an account stand out, and how to look after yours.

A site limited me. What now?

Save the new limit. Tap Site limited me on the Each site card in My bets. Or send /limit BetMGM 50 to the bot in Telegram. Alerts then never ask for more than that at the site, and Bet next uses it too. Never use someone else's account, a VPN or a fake location to get around a limit.

Plans and billing

How does the trial work?

Your first paid plan starts with a 14-day trial. You need a card, but you pay $0 that day. Cancel before it ends and you pay nothing. Cancelling ends the trial right away. In its last 2 hours, it may end when the trial ends instead. If you keep it, the price is charged when the trial ends, then every month or year. We remind you 3 days before the first charge, by email and on Telegram if you linked it. If you turned emails off, there is no reminder email. One free trial per person. To check, we keep a one-way code of each trial's email, card (when one is used) and IP address for 24 months. If that email or card already had a free trial, a new account gets no free trial. You can still buy the plan. See plans for what Both sides and Pro have.

How do I cancel?

On your Account page, tap Cancel plan (Cancel trial during a trial). It is the small link at the very bottom of the page. We ask why, but you can skip it. Then confirm. That is 3 taps, with no call or email needed. A paid plan keeps working until the end of the time you paid for. A paused plan, or one with a failed payment, ends right away. A trial ends right away, and nothing is charged. In its last 2 hours, it may end when the trial ends instead. Manage billing opens Stripe's page to switch plans or change your card.

Do you give refunds?

We don't refund part of a month or year, unless the law says we must. That is what the 14-day trial is for: cancel before it ends and you pay nothing.

Money, taxes and help

Do I pay tax on betting winnings in Canada?

General information, not tax advice: in Canada, winnings from gambling as a pastime are generally not taxed. It can be different if your betting is run like a business. Read taxes in Canada and talk to an accountant about your own situation.

Who can use WynFynd?

Adults 19 and older. Sports betting in Ontario is 19+. If betting stops being fun, ConnexOntario is free, private and open 24 hours a day: 1-866-531-2600. More help is on the responsible gambling page.
