Hi,

Yes there is a minimum stake required for SP bets.

See http://promo.betfair.com/betfairsp/FAQs_theBasics.html

Regards,
Mark

Not if you want to place an SP bet and limit the odds. If you don't need to set a limit then you can use the -SP modifier, eg. BACK-SP. You could request odds that won't get matched, eg. 990. When the market turns in play it will be converted to an SP bet and this works with below minimum stakes. It doesn't work with LAY-SP though.

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.

Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.

Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.

He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.

We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
