Right now BeatVig prices 805 NBA props at both. Novig is the cheaper side 66% of the time (538 of 805), and FanDuel is cheaper on 176. This is the board as it stands at 02 Nov 01:43 ET, not an average over any period — BeatVig measures live prices and keeps no price history.
How they differ
Novig is an exchange: traders set the price between themselves and the fee sits outside it. FanDuel is a sportsbook: it posts its own line and keeps its margin inside the two prices. Which of them is cheaper is not a constant and is not something this page asserts: every prop Novig and FanDuel both price right now is converted to the implied probability of the same outcome and counted below, so the answer moves with the two boards rather than with the date this page was written.

Go PremiumHow each one charges
- Novig
- Novig is a peer-to-peer exchange wearing a sportsbook interface: your price comes from another user rather than from a trading desk that sets a margin.
- Novig takes a small per-contract fee from the taker and pays makers a rebate rather than baking vig into the line. It is low-fee rather than fee-free, and when Novig steps in as counterparty in a thin market a spread comes back into the price.
- Novig covers the mainstream major-league slate with real depth and thins out quickly past it.
- FanDuel
- FanDuel is a traditional sportsbook: it sets the line and prices both sides with its margin included rather than matching you against another bettor.
- FanDuel's margin is inside the price, so it is charged on every bet regardless of the result.
- FanDuel prices a broad US player-prop menu across the major leagues.
