Cloudbet's Whale Mode helps you place large sports bets automatically. Instead of hitting the max stake cap, Whale Mode breaks your total amount into multiple smaller ones until your full target amount is placed.
The feature is currently available on the mobile version of the site. It'll be available on desktop soon.
Why use Whale Mode
Whale Mode is ideal if:
Your target stake amount is higher than the maximum allowed for a single bet
You want to build up a large position gradually
You want bets to place automatically as long as the odds stay above your chosen minimum
How Whale Mode works
Once Whale Mode starts, it will automatically place bets one after another using the current market odds for each bet. It’ll continue to place bets until your full target stake is placed or if you stop it manually.
What sports are eligible for Whale Mode?
Whale Mode is available for:
Single bets (no parlays or same game parlays)
Certain pre-match markets (not live or in-play betting)
Whale Mode example
Let’s say a market allows a maximum bet of $5,000, but you want to make a bet of $20,000.
Instead of placing four separate bets manually, Whale Mode automatically places multiple bets up to the bet limit each time, until your full $20,000 target is reached.
