# BetFi Sportsbook Revenue Model

The BetFi Sportsbook applies a **9% rake (house edge)** on all winning bets. Sportsbook revenue differs from poker due to higher volatility and risk management requirements.

To ensure sustainable operations, liquidity, and long-term growth, the sportsbook rake is distributed as follows:

### **Sportsbook Rake Distribution**

* **10% → BetFi Platform Reserve**\
  Critical for:
  * Risk buffers
  * Oracle data feeds
  * Settlement costs
  * Sportsbook risk modeling and insurance
* **50% → BetFi Operations**\
  Used for:
  * Development
  * Salaries
  * Marketing
  * Compliance
  * Partnership expansion
  * On-chain settlement infrastructure
* **40% → Distributed to $BETFI Token Stakers & Premium NFT Holders**\
  To remain consistent with the poker distribution model, the 40% pool is split as:
  * **$BETFI Token Stakers: 80% of the 40% pool**
  * **Premium NFT Holders: 20% of the 40% pool**

#### **Final Sportsbook Rake Distribution**

* **10% → Platform / Treasury**
* **50% → Team, Operations, Founders**
* **32% → $BETFI Token Stakers**
* **8% → Premium NFT Holders**

This ensures the sportsbook remains highly profitable while still delivering strong passive earnings to $BETFI holders.
