What is slippage?

Slippage is a common phenomenon in crypto frequently encountered on decentralized exchanges when swapping tokens. It is the difference between the quoted and executed price of the swap. Similarly, on Azuro, the slippage is related to the change in odds while executing the bet: the difference between quoted odds and executed odds.

A bettor will normally have some extremely minor/negligible slippage (fractions of a percent).

It is possible to adjust the "Odds slippage tolerance" in the settings tab of the bet slip. This way if there happens to be slippage above your preference - the transaction(bet) will not go through.

Most bettors will rarely encounter noticeable slippage when betting.
