Turnkey Sportsbook
A turnkey sportsbook is a pre-built sports betting platform that includes odds feeds, risk management, and payment processing, enabling operators to launch quickly.
What it means in practice
A turnkey sportsbook is a fully assembled sports betting platform provided by a technology vendor to operators who want to launch a sportsbook without building the technology stack from scratch. Unlike a white-label sportsbook, which typically operates under the vendor's license, a turnkey solution transfers more operational control to the operator, who usually holds their own gambling license and brand identity.
The turnkey package typically includes an odds feed integration, trading and risk management engine, player account management, payment processing, CMS for content and promotions, and front-end interfaces for web and mobile. Some vendors also bundle KYC/AML modules and responsible gambling tools. The operator customizes branding, markets, and pricing but relies on the vendor's core technology infrastructure.
For affiliate program managers, the sportsbook launch model matters because it determines how quickly an affiliate program can go live and what tracking capabilities are available. Turnkey solutions that include built-in affiliate management modules — or that integrate with platforms like Track360 — allow operators to start recruiting affiliates from day one. Operators evaluating turnkey vendors should assess the platform's S2S tracking capabilities, commission model flexibility, and real-time reporting depth.

White-Label Sportsbook
A white-label sportsbook is a pre-built sports betting platform licensed to operators who brand it as their own, reducing time-to-market and development costs.
White Label vs Turnkey Platform
A white label platform lets operators rebrand existing software, while a turnkey platform provides a complete pre-built business package including licensing and payments.
Odds Feed Integration
Odds feed integration is the technical process of connecting a sportsbook or affiliate platform to a real-time data feed that provides live odds, market availability, and event information from odds providers.
Betting Margin
The betting margin (also called overround, vigorish, or juice) is the built-in profit margin a sportsbook applies to its odds, representing the difference between the true probability of outcomes and the implied probability reflected in the offered odds.
Sportsbook RevShare
Sportsbook RevShare is a commission model where affiliates earn an ongoing percentage of the net revenue generated by their referred bettors from sports betting activity, typically calculated on net sportsbook revenue after payouts and adjustments.
Sportsbook CPA
Sportsbook CPA (Cost Per Acquisition) is a commission model where affiliates earn a fixed payment for each bettor they refer who meets a defined qualifying action, such as making a first deposit and placing a bet.
Turnover-Based Commission
Turnover-based commission is a payout model where affiliates earn a percentage of the total amount wagered (handle) by their referred players, rather than a share of the operator's net revenue.
