Sports betting is a type of gambling in which bets are placed on certain sporting events, for a winning amount if the player or a team betted wins the particular event. It is the process of placing wagers on the outcome of a sports event.

The main types of sports betting are line-in play, fixed old betting, exchange betting, daily fantasy, spread betting, e-sports, pari-mutuel and other types.
