Get an alert when your bet is close
Clutchbell watches the bets you've already placed, from any sportsbook, and sends you a notification during the game: when a bet is close, when it hits or can't win, and at the final. These aren't line alerts. They're about your bet after you've placed it.
The alerts you get
- Close: the bet could go either way, late enough to matter.
- Hit: a total or player prop has gone past its line, even with time left.
- Can't win: the bet is out of reach, so you can stop watching.
- Final: won, lost, or pushed, with the final score.
When a player is close to a prop
Clutchbell follows player props in the NBA, NFL, and NHL. By default, an NBA points prop counts as close within 3 points from the 3rd quarter on, and an NFL rushing or receiving yards prop within 15 yards. You can change both numbers on any bet.
When your parlay is down to its last leg
Clutchbell watches every leg of a parlay, and each leg sends its own alerts. When every leg but one is in, you get one more:
The parlay's page shows where it stands, like "1 won, 1 hit, 2 to go."
When a game total, spread, or moneyline is close
"Close" is set for each league. In the NBA, a total counts as close within 4 points in the last 5 minutes. In the NHL, it's within one goal in the 3rd period. You can change the numbers on any bet.
Bet alerts, line alerts, and sportsbook notifications
| Bet alerts (Clutchbell) | Line alerts | Sportsbook notifications | |
|---|---|---|---|
| When | During the game, after you've bet | Before you bet | Differs by book |
| What they say | Where your bet stands | The odds or the line moved | Differs by book |
| Which bets | Yours, from any book, added by you | Any game you choose to follow | Only bets at that book |
Line alerts are useful for a different job: Action Network and BettingPros both offer them. You can use them alongside Clutchbell.
Common questions
Is there an app that tells me when my bet is close?
Yes. Clutchbell sends a notification when a bet you've placed is close ("needs 3 more, 4:12 left"), when it hits or can't win, and at the final.
Can I get an alert when a player is close to hitting a prop?
Yes, in the NBA, NFL, and NHL. The alert gives the player's number and how many more they need.
Can I get an alert when my parlay is one leg away?
Yes. When every leg but one is in, Clutchbell sends a "One leg left" alert that names the leg and where it stands, even if that leg's game hasn't started.
What's the difference between bet alerts and line alerts?
Line alerts tell you the odds moved, before you bet. Bet alerts tell you how a bet you've placed is doing during the game.
Does it work with DraftKings, FanDuel, and BetMGM?
Yes. It works with bets from any sportsbook, because you add the bet yourself: scan the slip on Pro, or type it in. Clutchbell doesn't connect to your sportsbook.
How do the alerts reach me?
As a notification on any phone or computer where you turn them on, and by email.
What does it cost?
Free for 3 open bets at a time, and a parlay counts as one. Pro is $9.99 a month for unlimited bets. New accounts get 7 days of Pro free, no card needed.
Does Clutchbell tell me what to bet?
No. It doesn't take bets or sell picks. It only watches the bets you've already placed.
