96ex (formerly BFB247)

Short answer: 96ex (formerly BFB247) is an exchange-betting platform that routes your account into Orbit Exchange liquidity. You get back and lay betting with genuine depth on cricket and top football, no personal winnings limits, and a flat 5% commission charged on net winnings only.

Commercial disclosure: SureBets may receive commission if you follow a sponsored link and become a customer. That does not change our checks. Gambling can result in loss, and offshore access can offer less practical recourse than a locally licensed operator.

96ex is a niche but genuinely useful account for exchange bettors focused on cricket and football liquidity. The former BFB247 domain now reaches 96ex, and the product remains a front-end onto Orbit Exchange. Open an account only if you already understand back-and-lay trading and you are in a permitted jurisdiction.

Commission is a flat 5% on net market winnings. Nothing is charged on losing markets and nothing on your stake: if a market settles in profit, 5% of that profit is deducted. There are no personal winnings limits, so liquidity is the only cap on what you can get matched.

• Orbit is one of the deepest exchanges for cricket, with genuine depth on Premier League, Champions League and top ATP tennis.
• Back and lay both sides of a market, exchange-style.
• Live streaming for cricket and football is included on an active-account basis.
• An obscure fixture with thin Orbit liquidity is still an obscure fixture: check the market before you plan around it.

Residents of the US, UK, France, Sweden, Turkey, the Netherlands and Singapore cannot register. Enforcement happens at sign-up and at withdrawal, and VPN workarounds violate the terms. Always confirm the current operator, licence and account terms for your exact jurisdiction before depositing.

An exchange is useful for lay bets only when the market has enough volume at the price used in your calculation. Partial matching, price movement, commission and void rules can turn an apparent hedge into a loss. Use our matched betting calculator with the 5% fee, then confirm the order is fully matched. Compare alternatives in our betting exchange guide.

Do not treat exchange betting or arbitrage as guaranteed income. Use a fixed budget, allow for execution errors and never chase losses. If gambling stops feeling controlled, stop and use a free support service available in your country.
