The Offshore Tracking Problem

If you've tried to use a mainstream bet tracker and noticed that your Bovada account simply isn't in the list of supported sportsbooks, you've run into the same wall that frustrates millions of offshore bettors. It's not a bug — it's a deliberate architectural choice by those apps, and it's not going to change.

Offshore books dominate betting volume in the US and Canada despite operating outside state-regulated markets. Bovada alone is estimated to handle billions in wagers annually. Yet if you want to track your sports bets properly, most tools treat you like you don't exist.

Why Offshore Books Are Excluded from Most Trackers

Apps like Betstamp and The Action Network connect to sportsbooks via official APIs. Those APIs are granted by regulated, state-licensed operators — DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars. It's a business arrangement: the sportsbook provides data access, and the tracker builds features around it.

Offshore books — Bovada, BetOnline, MyBookie, Bet99, Pinnacle — don't play that game. They operate outside US regulatory frameworks, don't pursue licensing agreements, and have no incentive to offer API access to third-party developers. The result is a hard wall: no API, no integration.

There's also a business incentive problem. Most bet tracker developers are building for the regulated US market because that's where venture money flows. The offshore segment, while large in dollar terms, is politically inconvenient to explicitly support.

So the typical advice is "switch to a regulated book." Which works great — unless you're betting on Bovada because they have better lines, lower juice, or markets that US books don't offer.

The One Method That Works with Every Sportsbook

Screenshots.

Every sportsbook in the world — regulated or offshore, mobile app or web browser, US-based or international — shows you a bet slip or bet confirmation. That's a visual record of your wager. If you can see it, you can capture it.

S2S Bets reads that screenshot and converts it into a spreadsheet row automatically. No API. No account linking. No sportsbook partnership required. It works the same way whether you're on Bovada or DraftKings, because it's reading pixels, not pinging an API.

Works with any book: The screenshot method is sportsbook-agnostic by design. If a bet slip is visible on your screen, S2S Bets can parse it. Offshore, international, regional — doesn't matter.

Step-by-Step: Tracking Your Bovada Bets

Here's exactly how the workflow looks on Bovada. The process is identical for BetOnline, MyBookie, Bet99, and every other offshore book.

  1. Place your bet on Bovada — via the Bovada app or the web. Make your selection, set your stake, confirm the bet as you normally would.
  2. Take a screenshot of your bet slip — on iOS, press the side button + volume up. On Android, press power + volume down. On the Bovada website, use your browser's screenshot tool or OS shortcut. Capture the full bet slip showing selection, odds, and stake.
  3. Open S2S Bets and select your screenshot — the app recognises the bet slip automatically. It identifies the sportsbook, parses all the relevant fields, and shows you a preview of what it extracted.
  4. Confirm and it goes to your spreadsheet — the parsed row is appended to your Google Sheets or Excel workbook. Date, sport, book, selection, market, odds, and stake — all filled in.
  5. Mark the result when it settles — once Bovada grades the bet, you return to the row and mark Win, Loss, or Push. The P&L calculates automatically.

The whole process from screenshot to logged bet takes under 30 seconds. You do it right after placing, the same way you'd take a screenshot of a receipt.

What Gets Extracted from Your Bet Slip

S2S Bets pulls every piece of data visible on the bet slip. For a typical Bovada straight bet, that means:

Result is the one field you fill in yourself — because Bovada doesn't show the outcome on the bet slip, it shows it later when the bet settles. Everything else is captured automatically.

Supported Offshore Sportsbooks

Because the method is screenshot-based rather than API-based, there's no fixed "supported" list in the traditional sense. If your sportsbook shows a readable bet slip, S2S Bets can parse it. That includes:

It also works with every regulated US sportsbook — DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars, PointsBet, and more. If you split your action across multiple books (offshore and regulated), everything ends up in the same spreadsheet. That's the real power: a unified record regardless of where each bet was placed.
