How Payouts Work

BeeNBet uses automated blockchain systems to ensure all crypto payouts are processed fairly, transparently, and automatically. When a betting market resolves, winners receive their crypto funds immediately without any manual intervention.

Payout Process

1. Market Resolution

When a market resolves:

  • Outcome Determination: Smart contracts identify the winning side
  • Winner Identification: System identifies all winning positions
  • Payout Calculation: Calculate how much each winner receives
  • Fund Distribution: Automatically transfer funds to winners

2. Automatic Settlement

All payouts are processed automatically:

  • No Manual Intervention: Smart contracts handle everything
  • Immediate Processing: Payouts occur as soon as resolution is confirmed
  • Transparent Rules: All payout calculations are publicly verifiable
  • Equal Treatment: All winners receive their fair share

3. Winner Notification

Winners are notified of their payouts:

  • Transaction Confirmation: Blockchain transaction confirms the payout
  • Wallet Update: Your wallet balance reflects the new funds
  • Email Notification: Optional email alerts for payouts
  • Dashboard Update: Your account shows the updated balance

Payout Calculations

Basic Formula

For each winning share you hold:

Payout = (Total Market Pool / Number of Winning Shares) × Your Winning Shares

Example Calculation

Let's say you have a market with:

  • Total Market Pool: 1000 BNB
  • Winning Shares: 200 shares
  • Your Winning Shares: 10 shares

Your payout would be:

Payout = (1000 BNB / 200 shares) × 10 shares = 50 BNB

Share Value

  • Initial Price: All shares start at 0.5 BNB
  • Market Price: Share prices fluctuate based on demand
  • Final Value: Winning shares are worth 1.0 BNB each
  • Losing Shares: Worth 0 BNB (total loss)

Payout Examples

Example 1: Crypto Price Prediction

Market: "Will BTC reach $100,000 by 2024-12-31?"
Your Position: 5 Yes shares at 0.6 BNB each
Market Resolution: BTC reaches $95,000 (No shares win)
Your Payout: 0 BNB (you lose your 3 BNB investment)

Example 2: Sports Event

Market: "Will Team A win the championship?"
Your Position: 10 Yes shares at 0.4 BNB each
Market Resolution: Team A wins (Yes shares win)
Your Payout: 10 BNB (you win 6 BNB profit)

Example 3: Global Event

Market: "Will the new policy be implemented?"
Your Position: 20 No shares at 0.7 BNB each
Market Resolution: Policy is not implemented (No shares win)
Your Payout: 20 BNB (you win 6 BNB profit)
