Slide 1: Introduction
• What is a betting website?
• Online platform where users place bets on sports, events, or games.
• Importance of coding: seamless user experience, secure transactions,
and legal compliance.
Slide 2: Core Features
• User Registration & Authentication: Sign up, login, 2FA
• Wallet System: Deposit, withdrawal, balance tracking
• Betting System:
• Sports/event listing
• Odds calculation
• Bet placement and settlement
• Admin Panel: Manage events, users, payments
• Notifications: Email/SMS updates for results
Slide 3: Technology Stack
• Frontend:
• HTML, CSS, JavaScript
• Frameworks: React, Angular, or Vue.js
• Backend:
• Node.js, Python (Django/Flask), or PHP
• Handles user requests, bets, odds calculations
• Database:
• SQL (MySQL/PostgreSQL) for structured data
• NoSQL (MongoDB) for flexible data like logs or session data
• Server/Hosting:
• AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean
Slide 4: Core Functional Logic
• Odds Calculation: Algorithm for fair betting
• Bet Settlement: Update user balance after event completion
• Transaction Handling:
• Secure deposits/withdrawals
• Integration with payment gateways (Stripe, PayPal)
• Randomization & Fairness: Ensure RNG for games or events
Slide 5: Security Measures
• User Data Protection: Encrypt sensitive info (passwords, payments)
• Secure Communication: HTTPS & SSL
• Fraud Detection: Monitor suspicious betting patterns
• Server Security: Firewalls, DDoS protection
• Regulatory Compliance: Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer
(KYC)
Slide 6: Example Code Snippets
• User Registration (Python Flask example):
from flask import Flask, request
from werkzeug.security import generate_password_hash
@app.route('/register', methods=['POST'])
def register():
username = request.form['username']
password = generate_password_hash(request.form['password'])
# save username & hashed password in DB
return "User registered successfully"
• Placing a Bet (pseudo-code):
if user_balance >= bet_amount:
deduct(user_balance, bet_amount)
record_bet(user_id, event_id, bet_amount, odds)
Slide 7: Frontend UI Example
• Clean, mobile-friendly dashboard:
• Live events
• Betting slip
• Transaction history
• Tools: Figma/Adobe XD mockups or React components
Slide 8: Legal & Ethical Considerations
• Must comply with local gambling laws
• Age verification (18+ or local legal age)
• Responsible gambling features: self-limit, cooldowns
Slide 9: Challenges
• Real-time odds and live event updates
• Payment gateway integration & latency
• Security & anti-fraud measures
• Scalability for high traffic
Slide 10: Conclusion
• Betting websites require careful coding: security, fairness, and
compliance
• Tech stack and architecture determine reliability and user experience
• Future: AI for odds prediction, better fraud detection
