Affiliate Update
After a rocky start, it appears Gumroad is up and running successfully. Thanks to all that helped me test. I love this community. If you’re interested in creating an additional income stream as a BowTiedBum affiliate, please check out this post. Congratulations to those who made their first sale, and covered an entire year of their membership!
Intro
We launched BowTiedBum last November to help people earn $10K+ through credit card hacks. Then, we introduced Amazon FBA as a way to help hit credit card SUB’s quickly and create your own biz. We recently introduced an affiliate oppurtunity to allow bums to create yet an additional income stream.
Now?
I’m happy to introduce what is potentially the most lucrative income stream yet.
A small group of Bums have been testing this in the Slack Group, and although we are still collecting a lot of data points, we wanted to introduce it to the larger audience.
Dark Horse Odds is a matched-betting platform that allows you make riskless bets by taking advantage of sportbook signup offers, deposit matches, free bets, profit boosts, and more.
Their website describes it as a “side hustle that mathematically guarantees profit from sportsbook promotions.”

Note From Garret (fellow bum)
Like many things in this game we play, it sounds too good to be true.
Fortunately, one of the bums in the Slack Group (User: Garret) has made over $100K+ in the past 12 months using similar methods!
Note from Garret below:
“I started my journey a couple of years ago when I came across a Reddit post about a guy supporting his family solely from matched betting and I had never heard of it. At first, I was skeptical and naturally had concerns around both legality and legitimacy. It’s hard to wrap your head around there being a “risk free” side of gambling or betting. Once I realized it is no different than arbitrage in any other industry, I decided to give it a shot.
When I first started, I had to manually find betting lines that would maximize the promotions that I was receiving. When DarkHorse launched, it completely changed the game as a way to streamline my matched betting and not have to spend time searching manually for lines that would convert well.In the last 12 months, I have profited over $140,000 from various sports books and casino sites, using Darkhorse as my main odds sourcing tool. This allowed me to put increasing volume through sports books to earn myself VIP status at them and receive more lucrative promotions. Liquidity matters in matched betting to avoid being limited, and there is no better market than the NFL, which we are leading into this week.” - Garret
BowTiedBum Thoughts
A couple considerations, but first off, this is incredibly exciting stuff.
This play has two MASSIVE benefits, effectively killing two birds with one stone:
First, you can make a serious income stream with this method (Garret made over $100K+ in a year!).
