Betfair Commission is automatically removed from your winnings when the market is settled.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BETFAIR COMMISSION EXAMPLE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Victorian thoroughbred racing (i.e. the Melbourne Cup market) has a 8% Market Base Rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You place a $50 BACK bet on Incentivise in the Melbourne Cup at odds of $3.00. Incentivise wins. This means that your winnings are $100 ($150 return \u2013 $50 stake).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the Market Base Rate at 8%, the commission you will pay is $100 x 8% = $8.00.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-market-base-rates\"><strong>WHAT ARE THE MARKET BASE RATES?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Market Base Rates for sport and international racing markets are 6%, except for NRL at 10%.
