FanDuel vs BetMGM: which book prices better?
FanDuel and BetMGM price the same games differently — we measure which one costs you less, from prices we record all day.
Which book is cheaper, by bet type
The cut is the margin a book builds into its own prices — bettors call it the vig, juice or hold. Lower is better for you.
Beyond the price
FanDuel goes deeper on the big US leagues and is easier to use for combining bets in one slip. BetMGM lists more overseas and secondary leagues, and its rewards are worth more if you also play at an MGM casino.

Common questions
Does FanDuel or BetMGM have better odds?
Neither one, every time. Each posts the better number on a meaningful share of bets, and which one wins changes by bet type and by night. Holding both accounts and checking the price at each before you bet — line shopping — is the simplest way to pay less.
Which book is better for parlays?
Neither: the book's cut applies to every leg, so the more legs you add, the more you pay. If you are building one anyway, our parlay calculator shows what the payout is really worth next to what each book is offering.
