What is payout split?

What it means

Splits have compressed as the industry has become competitive, and headline percentages of 90% or more are now common. The percentage alone is a poor basis for choosing a firm, because payout frequency, minimum thresholds and processing reliability vary far more than the split does.

Why it matters

The questions that matter more are how often payouts can be requested, what minimum applies, how long processing takes in practice, and whether the firm has a history of paying. A 90% split from a firm that disputes withdrawals is worth less than 75% from one that does not.

What this changes in practice

Consistency rules can also gate payouts independently of the split. A firm may require that no single day accounts for more than a set share of total profit, which can delay or void a payout earned largely in one strong session — a specific risk for bots that occasionally have an outsized day.
