What is STX?

STX is a sports betting platform licensed by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) for registered users who are physically present in Ontario.

Am I betting against STX?

No. STX does not take part in the wager. Every wager you make is matched with another player on the platform. STX runs the exchange and makes sure players on it are operating fairly.

How does wagering work?

Every market is a question that results in YES or NO. You buy contracts if you think the answer will be YES, and sell contracts if you think it will be NO. When the market expires, each contract is worth $1 if the result is YES and $0 if it is NO.

Prices run from 1¢ to 99¢, and a price reads as the market’s view of how likely the outcome is: a contract trading at 60¢ suggests about a 60% chance of YES. Prices move as the game or season goes on, so you can get in or out of a position at any time before the market expires. See How to place a wager and 0 to 100 pricing.

Markets created before September 20, 2026 settle at $100 per contract instead of $1. They keep that value until they resolve.

What does it cost?

STX uses maker-taker pricing. If your order adds liquidity to the order book and is matched later (a maker order), you pay no fee. If your order matches an order that is already on the book (a taker order), you pay a fee that depends on the price and on your loyalty tier. The full formula and the rates for each tier are in the Fee Schedule.

Where can I use STX?
