General(6)

Momentum Bets is a real-time sports betting alert service that sends you personalized SMS notifications based on criteria you define. You choose your sport, league, team, market type (moneyline, spread, or total), and set an odds threshold or line movement trigger. Our system continuously monitors odds from supported sportsbooks and sends you a text message within seconds of your criteria being met. We don't tell you what to bet - you set the rules, and we notify you when the market matches your parameters.

You can create custom betting alerts across three main markets: moneyline, spread, and over/under (totals). Each criteria can be filtered by sport, league, team, pre-match vs. in-play (live) odds, and specific American odds values. You can set threshold alerts that notify you when odds reach a specific number, or shift alerts that trigger when a line moves by a certain amount. We are continually expanding the available criteria options - email criteria@momentumbets.com with suggestions.

Momentum Bets covers seven major sports with leagues: NFL, NCAA Football, NBA, NCAA Basketball, MLB, NHL, UFC/MMA, Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Champions League, ATP, WTA, and many more. Full league coverage details are available on our pricing page. New sports and leagues are added regularly and included automatically in every subscription.

The majority of Momentum Bets alerts arrive within 10 seconds of the sportsbook updating its lines. Our system ingests odds data in real time and evaluates your criteria continuously across all supported sports, leagues, and sportsbooks. Alerts are delivered via SMS, so they reach your phone instantly without requiring an app to be open or a Wi-Fi connection.

All Momentum Bets alerts are delivered via SMS text message directly to your phone. When your custom criteria are met, you receive a text within seconds. SMS delivery means you don't need to have an app open, be connected to Wi-Fi, or be at a computer. As long as you have cell service, you'll receive your sports betting alerts in real time.

The Sharp Bettor plan includes up to 20 active customized betting alerts running simultaneously. You can also save more inactive criteria and swap them in at any time. This makes it easy to rotate alerts by season - run NFL and college football criteria in the fall, then switch to MLB and NBA alerts in the spring - without losing any of your saved setups.

Getting Started(2)

Getting started takes just a few minutes:

  3. Save your criteria and start receiving SMS alerts the moment your conditions are met.

You can create, edit, and test multiple criteria from day one, just opt-in to receive messages.

No. Momentum Bets is designed to be simple. You build criteria using dropdown menus to select your sport, league, team, market, and odds parameters. No coding or technical knowledge required. If you're new, start with one criteria on a sport you follow closely. You can edit, pause, or add criteria from your dashboard at any time. If you need help, our support team is available at support@momentumbets.com.

How We Are Different(2)

Momentum Bets stands apart from other sports betting tools in three key ways. First, we emphasize live in-play odds, most alert services only cover pre-match lines. Second, we let you build fully custom criteria rather than sending you generic picks or pre-set EV alerts. Third, we track line movements both pre-match and from pre-match to in-play, capturing opportunities that other services miss entirely. You control the notifications. We just make sure you don't miss the line you're looking for.

No. Momentum Bets is not a picks service, tipster, or betting advisor. We are a real-time sports betting notification service. We monitor odds and alert you when your custom criteria are met. We don't tell you what to bet on or provide any predictions. You define your own strategy and parameters, and we provide the real-time information you need to execute it. All services are intended solely for informational purposes.

Sportsbook Coverage(1)

Momentum Bets currently supports DraftKings with real-time odds monitoring across all covered sports, leagues, and markets. We are actively expanding sportsbook coverage, and when new sportsbooks are enabled, every subscriber gets access automatically at no additional cost.
