Pay Per Head Beginner’s Guide
Why Go Online with Pay Per Head?
Pay Per Head (PPH) service providers, like 247ppH , cater to sportsbook agents and bookies who are trying to grow their business these days. The services available often include a dedicated call center to handle player wagers and questions, a website for players to wager, and software for tracking and reporting player activities and balances. However, for a long time, Sportsbooks and Racebooks did not use the internet for their business – and in many places in the world they still don’t. So, why it’s important to change all that now?
Well as it turns out, there are a lot of very good reasons why, and nowadays almost all serious bookmakers have gone online. If you are trying to decide if online pay per head is right for your business, consider the following:
• “I my business to grow”
By giving a chance to pay per head on the internet, your horizon will become endless. In addition, growing will cost you less when a large company with dedicated resources handles the day-to-day operations of your business. Think of the time and energy that you can save!
• “I don’t want to leave a paper trail”
247ppH’s advanced pay per head software can completely replace your old paper sheets. All of your player details, balances, actions, and histories will be stored securely online. This is more safe and convenient because you can access your information from anywhere with a computer or mobile phone, but if your belongings are seized, you have no paper trail.
• “I want to have a website”
Most players want the convenience and ease of browsing available wagers, viewing lines, and placing bets online. You have two choices, you can spend a lot of money learning about website marketing and design , OR you can let 247ppH handle all of that for you with our pay per head services.
• “I want 24/7 phone coverage”
If you are taking all of your players’ calls yourself, then you probably aren’t getting as much sleep as you deserve. Not having a professional call center is unacceptable because it is a turn off for players, and it hinders the growth of your company because you just can’t keep up. With 247ppH’s dedicated call center, we can handle the load now. Our staff grew up with American English as their primary language and they follow the sports your players care about.
• “I don’t want to worry about security and technology”
A lot of bookmakers shy away from going online because they don’t like computers, or dealing with the technology required to maintain a call center. 247ppH has a dedicated staff of on-call engineers who manage our data centers and server health around the clock. They mitigate security vulnerabilities, perform routine maintenance on equipment, and we spare no expenses on top-of-the-line technology so you don’t have to!
• “I want full control over my rules and lines”
Not joining the right pay per head service can mean a loss of control. But 247ppH gives agents complete control over the board, the lines, and all of the rules or limitations they want in place. You just have to tell us what you need, and we will make it happen. 247ppH Cost versus Savings Deciding if the price of pay per head services is right differs for every agent. Your added expenses will normally be a small weekly fee for each player that wagered that week, and the savings will be in personal time, investment, and administration. It is usually a win-win situation – please consider the following example:
– Agent John has 20 players currently, and spends all of his free time (30 hours / week) managing the players, taking wagers, and doing accounting
– John joins 247ppH
– In a typical week, 15 of John’s players will wager, so at $10 per head / week, he is now spending $150
– With the accounting done automatically, wagers fielded by our call center, and player management done easily online, John now spends only 10 hours / week managing his players!
– With the extra time on his hands due to 247ppH’s services, John adds 40 brand new players – something he could never have managed before – all without doing more work than his original 30 hours / week. In this example, John is now working just as much as he used to, but instead of just 20 players, he is now spending just $450 to maintain a sportsbook of 60 players! With pay per head services, new heights are possible. Keep in mind that this example was intended for illustration purposes only – actual time savings vary widely by sportsbook.
