SPORTSBETTING REVIEW - SPORTSBETTING.COM

Sportsbetting.com has been operating for over 15 years with a gaming licence issued by the government of Antigua and Barbuda. What concerns us is that there are no details of who actually owns/manages Sportsbetting.com, nor is there a proper operating address of the company. Their cashier services are managed by Internet Opportunity Entertainment Ltd. IOE is a subsidiary of a company publicly traded on the London Stock Exchange AIM. We have not come across any really bad reviews as of yet on Sportsbetting.com and there are a lot of satisfied customers. Just that we do value and actually demand transparency of the online gaming community.

Having said that, Sportsbetting.com offer lines/bets on most of the popular North American sports such as American Football, College Basketball, NBA, Baseball and so on. What surprised us pleasantly was their very extensive soccer coverage - which includes 15 European soccer leagues, 7-8 South American soccer leagues and US Major Soccer League as well as the World Cup. So if you are into international soccer, Sportsbetting.com is definitely a must for you.

Sportsbetting.com offers all new customers 10% FREE CASH just for becoming a member up to a maximum of $100. In order to withdraw your initial deposit plus your sign-up bonus you must wager an amount equal to three times your initial deposit plus your sign-up bonus otherwise you will forfeit your sign-up bonus.

SPORTSBETTING.COM - LOYALTY PROGRAMME

Sportsbetting.com has no regular loyalty programme although they do offer monthly photos of swimsuit models. Some may deem this as a loyalty thingy but we are unsure how this relates to sportsbetting. We would welcome any suggestions.

SPORTSBETTING.COM - SOFTWARE & INTERFACE

Easy to use software and everything is done via the website so no need to download any software. The website is very easy to use and bets downloaded quickly. Only issue that we had was that some lines that were advertised had no or few bets available.

There is a 24/7 Live Chat facility. Very quick attendance in our tests. However, the responses were very slow coming. Took on average about 3 minutes at least to answer the simplest question and that is if they could. Not impressed by quality.
