SkipOdds

Description

SkipOdds shows the market’s honest opinion of upcoming matches: every surveyed bookmaker price, aggregated and stripped of its built-in margin (“de-vigged”), so the probabilities for each event sum to exactly 100%. No bookmaker names, no betting links — informational only.

Thirteen sports, one widget: soccer, tennis, baseball, American football, basketball, hockey, college football, college basketball, cricket, rugby, MMA, boxing, and golf.

Drop it anywhere:

  • Shortcode[skipodds] renders the next fixtures with live win probabilities. [skipodds sport="golf"] picks a sport; [skipodds theme="light"] matches light sites; [skipodds limit="3"] shows three; [skipodds sport="soccer" competition="fifa-world-cup-2026"] pins a soccer competition.
  • Block — insert “SkipOdds probabilities” from the editor; sport, theme, competition, and fixture count sit in the block sidebar.

Site-wide defaults live under Settings SkipOdds. The widget is dark-themed, responsive, and sizes itself to its content.

Probabilities update continuously through the day and refresh on each page load.

External services

This plugin embeds a widget served by skipodds.com, a SkipSeek AI service, via an iframe. The widget delivers the live probability data; without it the plugin displays nothing.

  • What it is: SkipOdds — de-vigged, aggregated sports probabilities across 13 sports (skipodds.com).
  • What is sent: the embed iframe requests the widget from skipodds.com with your chosen sport, competition, and fixture count. The widget sets no cookies and runs no analytics on your visitors.
  • Terms: skipodds.com/terms · Privacy: skipodds.com/privacy

No other external requests are made. All plugin JavaScript is bundled locally.

FAQ

Where do the numbers come from?

SkipOdds surveys bookmaker prices for each event, averages them per outcome, and removes the bookmaker margin so the probabilities sum to 100%. It is an aggregate market read, not a prediction model.

Is this a betting plugin?

No. The widget shows probabilities only — no bookmaker names, no odds links, no betting calls to action. It is informational content, like a weather widget for sports.

Which sports are available?

Soccer, tennis, baseball, American football, basketball, hockey, college football, college basketball, cricket, rugby, MMA, boxing, and golf — set per embed with the sport attribute or site-wide in Settings. Seasonal sports show fixtures when their leagues are active.

Which soccer competitions are available?

World Cup 2026 at launch; club competitions arrive with the 2026/27 season. The competition slug is set per embed or site-wide in Settings.

Can I style the widget?

The widget ships in dark and light themes — pick per embed (theme="light"), in the block sidebar, or site-wide in Settings. It fills the width of its container, so size it by placing the shortcode/block inside any column or group.
