Right now BeatVig prices 18 NFL props at both. Fanatics Sportsbook is the cheaper side on 2 of them and Novig on 15. That is fewer than 30 comparable props, which is too small a sample to state as a percentage, so the counts are published on their own. This is the board as it stands at 01 Nov 23:39 ET, not an average over any period — BeatVig measures live prices and keeps no price history.
How they differ
Fanatics Sportsbook is a sportsbook: it posts its own line and keeps its margin inside the two prices. Novig is an exchange: traders set the price between themselves and the fee sits outside it. Which of them is cheaper is not a constant and is not something this page asserts: every prop Fanatics Sportsbook and Novig 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.

How each one charges
- Fanatics Sportsbook
- Fanatics Sportsbook is a traditional sportsbook: it sets the line and prices both sides with its own margin included, rather than matching two users against each other the way an exchange does.
- Fanatics builds its margin into the price instead of charging a visible fee, so the cost applies to every bet regardless of the result. Reading it means adding the two sides' implied probabilities together and seeing how far past 100% they land.
- Fanatics spreads its player-prop coverage across more players than any other venue on this site while keeping to the core yardage markets — passing, rushing and receiving yards — so it is broad across the slate rather than deep on any one game.
- 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.
In short
Fanatics Sportsbook and Novig currently price 18 NFL props in common, which is too few to state a reliable percentage yet.
