Market Maker Rewards

SX Bet has launched Market Maker Rewards, a new program that pays users in USDC for providing liquidity on sports markets.

You don’t need to win a bet to earn or even have your bet matched — just help make SX Bet’s markets sharper.

Look for markets marked with a 💎 diamond, these have active USDC prize pools.

This program is designed to:

  • Incentivize liquidity throughout each game’s entire lifecycle.

  • Reward market makers who post differentiated, competitive pricing.

  • Encourage tight, consistent liquidity that benefits all SX traders.

Every eligible market features its own 💎 USDC prize pool, and rewards accrue automatically as qualifying limit orders remain active. The longer and tighter your liquidity, the more you can earn.

💎 Eligible Markets

Look for the 💎 diamond symbol next to a market — these have active USDC prize pools and include a 5x multipliers for being the top order.

Check the Market Maker Rewards Page to see a full list of eligible markets.

🧮 How Points Are Calculated

Rewards are earned automatically when you provide liquidity that improves market pricing on selected markets.

Your points are based on: Stake amount × (Taker odds / Global consensus odds – 1) × Top-offer multiplier.

Qualifying Bets

  • Orders must remain live for at least 10 seconds to qualify.

  • Must be a limit order that is better than the Global Line and meet the minimum stake requirement (typically $100, but may vary by market)

  • Top-of-book orders earn up to a 5× multiplier for the time they’re at the top.

  • Limit order must be placed on the mainline (stay tuned for the addition of alt. lines)

🕐 Reward Timing

  • You stop earning points once your order is matched or removed — points are only earned while your limit order remains active and unmatched on the order book.

  • Orders that are taken immediately (within 10s) do not earn points.

  • Rewards are checked at random time intervals to prevent gaming.

  • Rewards become claimable after the game begins for Pre-Match markets, and after the game ends for Live markets (coming soon!)

💰Claiming Your Rewards

Visit the Market Maker Rewards Page and click Claim Rewards. You can claim your rewards anytime.

You’ll need a small amount of SX Token to cover network gas fees. If you don’t have any, visit the SX Faucet to receive a small amount for free.

FAQ

What if my Limit Order does not get filled?

That’s okay! Qualifying limit orders only earn points for the time your qualifying order remains open.

What if I cancel my Limit Order?

As long as your qualifying limit order is up long enough to accrue points, you keep your points and earn your share of the USDC reward pool.

What Is the Global Line?

The Global Line (orange line on the order book) represents the global consensus odds across major sportsbooks (like Pinnacle). To qualify, your order must offer better odds than this global line.

Do I need to place a bet to earn rewards?

Technically, no. You don’t need your bet to be matched to earn— you earn points for the time your qualifying order remains live. You stop earning points once your bet is matched or cancelled.

Do I have to offer on both sides of the line?

No.

Are alt. lines included?

No, not yet. Limit orders must be on the mainline.

How do I place a limit order?

When you place a limit order on SX Bet, you’re setting the exact odds you want for your bet — instead of taking the current market price.

Example:

You want to bet the Over 226.5 in the Detroit Pistons vs. Houston Rockets game. The Global Line (orange line) on the orderbook shows 1.97 on the other side of the book.

To qualify for Market Maker Rewards, your limit order must beat that line — meaning you offer better odds than 1.97.

👉 Click Over 226.5, select Limit, and enter 2.00 as your requested odds. Your order now appears on the opposite side of the book (Under 226.5) in blue— visible as a new offer that’s better than the global line.

✅ To Qualify for Rewards

  • Beat the Global Line (orange line) on eligible markets.

  • Meet the minimum stake requirement (typically $100, varies by market).

  • Place your limit order on the mainline (alt lines not yet eligible).

What if there is no Global Line on the order book?

If the market is included in the Maker Rewards but you don't see an orange line on the order book, you will not collect points by placing a limit order. Refresh the page or check the market later — sometimes it can take time for the Global Line to update. If the issue persist, message our support team.
