Install It
Four steps, about a minute. Your key is stamped into the download, so you have nothing to type in afterwards.
Download
Paste your access key to get the current release. We check the key before the download starts.
Signed in? Download from your account page instead. You won't need a key there.
No key yet? Buy one on the subscription page. Lost yours? It's on your account page.

Unzip it, somewhere permanent.
The download unpacks to a folder called
boost-dashboard. Chrome loads the extension from that folder every time it starts, so put it somewhere you won't tidy up later: Documents, not Downloads. Moving or deleting the folder uninstalls the extension. -
Check you picked the right folder.
manifest.jsonmust be directly inside it. On Windows, "Extract All" sometimes nests a second folder of the same name. If you seeboost-dashboardinsideboost-dashboard, use the inner one. -
Open the extensions page and turn on Developer mode.
Chrome won't let this page open it for you, so copy the address and paste it into your
address bar. Edge uses
edge://extensionsand Brave usesbrave://extensions. The Developer mode switch is in the top right.chrome://extensions - Press Load unpacked and choose that folder. StakeHUD appears in the list. Now pin it: click the puzzle-piece icon in the toolbar, then the pin beside StakeHUD. The popup is then one click away.
You are done when: you open a Stake game page (refresh it if it was already open) and the StakeHUD overlay appears on the right of the screen. The settings button in its header opens Settings. If the overlay stays locked, your key wasn't stamped into the download. Click the StakeHUD icon in the toolbar and paste the key into the Access tab.
Chrome can't load the zip itself, so unzip it first. Works in Chrome,
Brave, Edge and other Chromium browsers; Safari and Firefox are not supported. The version you installed is in VERSION.txt.
After It Is Installed
How to update, and how to move your key to another machine.
Updates
Your account page shows the latest version next to Download. Compare it with VERSION.txt in your folder. Every release unpacks to the same boost-dashboard folder, so updating is a straight swap:
- Download the new zip (above, or from your account page) and unzip it.
- Drag the new
boost-dashboardfolder onto the same place your old one lives and choose Replace. On a Mac, don't hold ⌥: that merges the folders and leaves old files behind. - Open
chrome://extensionsand press the reload icon on StakeHUD. If Chrome switched it off during the swap, switch it back on.
Your key, bet history and settings all carry over, because Chrome stores them, not the folder. Don't unzip to a new location: Chrome identifies an unpacked extension by its folder path, so a new path starts empty. Never press Remove on the extension; that is the one action that deletes your data. For a safety net first, use Settings → Export → Backup — everything.
Devices
A key works on one device at a time. Moving to a new machine? Remove the old one on your account page, or contact us.
Troubleshooting
The overlay does not appear
Check the extension is enabled at chrome://extensions, then hard refresh the game page (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + R).
The overlay says locked
The key hasn't been entered. Click the toolbar icon and paste it into the Access tab.
Still locked after pasting the key
The key has expired. Renew it on the subscription page.
"Extension was reloaded"
This is normal after an update. Refresh the game tab and the overlay comes back.
Privacy
Your play history and statistics stay in your own browser. The extension never sends your bets, balances, or Stake account details to us; the requests it makes to Stake go straight from your browser and never pass through our servers. The full details are in the Privacy Policy.
- Stored on your device. Bet history, statistics, and settings live in the extension's own storage. You can export them as an archive or clear them at any time. Remove the extension and they go with it.
- Sent only when a feature needs it. Your access key when it is checked (with a random device ID and your browser's user-agent, so we can enforce the device limit), and the seeds of rounds you choose to verify. Nothing else is sent anywhere.
- No tracking. No advertising or analytics scripts on this site or in the extension. The website sets a single cookie, used only to keep you signed in.
- You stay in control. Every device using your key is listed on your account page, where you can remove one yourself. To have your records deleted, ask us on the contact page.
