Action Network is a free sports betting companion app, not a sportsbook. It shows live odds from multiple sportsbooks, tracks your bets (including automatic BetSync), and offers expert picks and live scores. A paid PRO subscription adds public betting and money percentages.
- Free odds, bet tracking, picks and live scores
- Compare lines across multiple sportsbooks
- BetSync imports bets from supported sportsbooks
- PRO adds money percentages and betting systems
- Owned by Better Collective; not a sportsbook
Action Network is one of the most popular companion apps for sports bettors. It is not a sportsbook: you cannot place bets in it. Instead, it brings live odds from many sportsbooks, bet tracking, expert picks and betting data into one app. Since 2016 it has built a large following, and it now belongs to Better Collective, one of the biggest sports betting media groups. The free version covers most daily needs, and a PRO subscription unlocks sharper data.
What the Action Network app does
- Live odds comparison: see spreads, totals, moneylines and props from multiple sportsbooks side by side, so you can find the best price.
- Bet tracking: track all your bets in one place, add bets from a screenshot of your bet slip, and follow them live with win probabilities.
- BetSync: connect eligible sportsbook accounts so your bets are imported automatically.
- Expert picks and analysis: follow picks from Action Network’s analysts and read betting previews for major games.
- Live scores and alerts: fast scores, line-movement alerts and lock-screen widgets.
Action Network PRO
PRO adds the data that serious bettors look for: public betting and money percentages, PRO Report signals, projections and betting systems. Prices in the US App Store vary by plan, from weekly options around $9.99 to about $119.99 a year, and there is a separate EDGE tier. Many casual bettors never need PRO, but if you bet regularly, the money percentages (where the big bets are going) are the feature most people pay for.
How to use Action Network with a sportsbook
A typical routine looks like this: check odds across books in Action Network, place the bet at the sportsbook with the best price, then let BetSync or a bet-slip screenshot add the bet to your tracker. Over time you see your record by sport, bet type and sportsbook. BetSync only works one way (from sportsbook to Action Network) and only with supported, licensed sportsbooks in your state. Offshore sportsbooks are generally not supported, so log those bets manually.
Tips for getting the most from Action Network
- Set your favorites first. Pick your teams, leagues and sportsbooks so the odds screen only shows what you bet on.
- Shop every line. Even half a point or a few cents of juice adds up over a season.
- Track everything. Log bets from every book, including ones BetSync does not support, so your record is complete.
- Use alerts. Line-movement alerts help you bet before the price moves against you.
- Try PRO in a busy season. If you are unsure, test it during the NFL or March Madness, when the data is most useful.
Mobile experience
The iOS app has a 4.8 rating from almost 40,000 ratings and is about 100 MB. It needs iOS 16.4 or later. On Google Play it has more than 500,000 downloads and a 4.6 rating. The app is dense with information, and the free version shows ads and sportsbook offers, which some users find pushy. Once you set up your favorite teams and sports, it is a fast daily tool.
Who Action Network is for
Action Network suits anyone who already bets on sports with real money and wants better prices and better records. Beginners get value from the free odds and scores, while regular bettors benefit most from bet tracking and PRO data. If you only want automatic bet tracking with a social feed, Pikkit is a strong alternative. If you are not ready to bet real money, try free prediction games such as Stadium Live or social sportsbooks like Fliff. Our guide to sports betting apps covers all options.
Prefer a real-money sportsbook?
