In the storied history of betting on the NFL, 1 out of 32 teams that you can wager a Super Bowl Future on will make you money. Whoever is holding a ticket on the Super Bowl Champions, walks away with the cash, and everyone else goes home empty handed. The odds have never been in your favor.
The heavy favorite doesn’t provide those big returns we’re seeking, and the longshot most likely will miss the playoffs. Often, you can sense by week 3 or 4, or in some cases half time of week 1, that the ticket you are holding will inevitably be worthless in a few months.
Even if you are right about one team having a better year than most anticipate, you probably aren’t winning squat unless Patrick Mahomes is your QB. Take the Eagles for example, who were a semi-longshot to raise the Lombardi trophy this time around. Putting $100 on the birds going into the year turned out to be a pretty sharp bet, one where you deserve a little credit. In reality, Eagles futures bettors walked away with the exact same amount as Houston Texans bettors, with the exception of a few extra months of hope.
When you invest in the stock market, you aren’t necessarily betting for one company to win above the rest, rather you are aiming to buy low on a firm and sell when the outlook is much higher. In every other industry, there is not only one winner and loser, but rather highs and lows for each market participant. Investors are able to profit on those swings, and don’t have to tie up all of their liquidity for a whole season to do so. Secondary exchanges are prevalent in industries from traditional investing to sneakers to ticket sales and more. WagerWire is the company bringing this fair and just economic principle to the world of sports betting.
WagerWire is a secondary betting exchange presenting bettors on every team an opportunity to make money throughout the season. Take control of your futures bets and treat them like the assets they truly are. According to our proprietary deal calculator, that same $100 Eagles bettor who watched her wager get booted into oblivion by Harrison Butker, could have cashed in for $1,238 before the big game. The frisky Jacksonville Jaguars could have turned $100 into $581 before they bowed out, and even the Giants could have given you a 5x return at one point in January. Without a platform like WagerWire, backers of all those teams, and 28 others are left with nothing but a broken dream.
The swings of an NFL season are staggering, with more volatility than a share of Tesla stock. Why not profit from those ups and downs like Warren Buffet does all day long. Why place a futures bet and hold it all the way to zero, when you can make money hopping in and out of bets every week? WagerWire is here to modernize the way we think about betting on future outcomes in sports and to democratize the process to give more users better deals and a better chance to win. The graph above shows us at what point in the season each NFL playoff team achieved their peak valuation. So take control of your action, stop throwing away money, and join the Wire, the bettor way to play.
