Discover BetDEX: a decentralized sports betting exchange on Solana offering low fees, deep liquidity, and fast, secure transactions.
About BetDEX
BetDEX is a decentralized sports betting exchange built on Solana and powered by the Monaco Protocol. It offers exchange-style betting (back and lay orders) with programmatic matching on-chain, while BetDEX provides the user interface, account management, and operations around events, odds, settlement, and support. In practical terms, you browse events and place orders on BetDEX; the matching logic and settlement occur via Monaco Protocol on Solana for transparency and finality.
BetDEX focuses on popular pre-match markets across global sports and competitions. The product follows a clear rulebook (exchange rules plus sport-specific rules) and is structured to operate like a “sports exchange” rather than a traditional bookmaker: prices are set by participants and liquidity providers, not by a house making fixed-odds. Commission applies only to net winnings on settled markets, not on every matched order
BetDEX integrates the Monaco Protocol’s core design—non-custodial on-chain market logic and settlement—and adds an operator layer for the day-to-day experience: event creation, display, limits and responsible-gaming controls, and customer support. The protocol itself is open and on Solana, while BetDEX runs the consumer platform that most users interact with.

What makes BetDEX special?
BetDEX combines a familiar, regulated sports-exchange experience with on-chain market logic. Monaco Protocol’s design keeps matching and settlement transparent on Solana, while BetDEX handles the operational front end: onboarding, KYC where required, event curation, and customer support. This separation lets traders see markets, place orders, and settle outcomes with a clear understanding of who does what at each stage.
Fees are documented and simple to understand: commission is charged on net winnings per settled market, rather than on every bet. The total 3% commission is split between BetDEX (operator) and protocol, which is easy to verify before you trade.
The exchange provides extensive rule coverage (general + sport-specific) so participants know how each market settles, including postponements and void scenarios. That clarity reduces confusion around edge cases—particularly important for traders who hedge across multiple outcomes or manage lay exposure.
Responsible-gaming controls are part of the audited platform build. The GLI (Gaming Laboratories International) evaluation for the BetDEX PAM and sportsbook platform includes checks for account registration, player protection/exclusion systems, and logging, among other elements. That report underpins the platform’s compliance posture.
Finally, the sports and competition coverage is broad, with a growing catalog of markets. In-play trading is technically supported by the protocol. BetDEX’s documentation notes that the team is onboarding liquidity providers and expanding availability—so check the exchange interface to see which in-play markets are currently offered.

BetDEX applies commission to net winnings on a settled market. The documented commission is 3% total, composed of a 2% operator commission plus a 1% protocol commission attributed to Monaco Protocol. If you do not win on a market, there is no commission charged for that market.
For funding, BetDEX indicates no deposit fees when you deposit via supported cryptocurrencies (BTC, SOL, USDC, USDT). Network fees or third-party provider fees can still apply, and deposits are automatically converted to USDC for use on the exchange.
If you are evaluating additional fees (withdrawals, currency conversions, or third-party payment methods), review the funding pages or your cashier before transacting, as those costs can vary by method and venue.
