Bethard Sportsbook Review

The Bethard website opens up to a clean black and yellow theme, which looks pretty similar to Bwin original black-yellow combination. But Bethard still seems more straightforward and more comfortable to navigate compared to Bwin, and we consider this as an advantage. The homepage features tabs for each of the available products, including sports, live betting, casino, live casino, and fantasy sports.

All sports markets both on desktop and mobile versions are listed in descending order from the most popular to the rarest picks like sailing or politics. It is also worth mentioning that it takes some time to adjust to the menu, which is located at the bottom of the page in mobile/app versions.

Bethard odds surpass all other top online bookies. Its pre-match wagers have an overall payout of 95.6% in the top football leagues. There are only a few bookies nowadays where you could find even better odds on top European leagues; this makes Bethard a top pick for football punters. For example, the Serie A league has a massive payout of 97%! Secondary bets are a little lower, except totals. Basketball and tennis payouts are competitive and come out at 95%. Bethard odds on popular basketball games are on par with the market average.

You can take advantage of Bethard odds on markets such as alternative handicaps, props, outright bets, moneylines, futures and many more.

Bethard Sports betting supports three odds formats: decimal, fractional and American.

The Bethard app is available both for any Android or iOS device. Due to some local laws, you won’t find the app button on the Bethard UK website. The only way to get is to contact the support and ask for the download link. We will save you some time; here it is. Before download, Android users should first head over to their security settings and allow the installation of apps from ‘unknown sources’.

If you don’t want to download the app, you can simply use the Bethard mobile site. The website is fully optimized for mobile users. To be honest, functionality both for the mobile version and app is pretty much the same. It has no extras that would allow the customer to choose the app over the mobile site.

As an advantage – a large search bar allows you to find the sport you wish to wager on quickly. An unpopular decision was to put the menu bar at the bottom of the page in mobile/app versions. It takes some time to adapt to this.

Other Promotions

Bethard offers other promotions, depending on sports seasons. The most recent was its money-back offer on the Cheltenham horse racing festival. This Bethard promotion offered up to £20 back for your selection, if it placed second or third on the first race of the day.

Currently, in April 2020, there are no other promos except for the first deposit bonus. Although the betting market is currently going through tough times, we believe Bethard will do its best to meet esports lovers’ demands and will demonstrate its flexibility by adding some hot esports promotions.

Bethard bet types are offered on up to 25 different sports markets. This means it’s easy to find a sport you like and want to wager on. You can place in-play bets on over 30,000 live Bethard sports events every month. That’s around 2,000 pre-match markets daily. Live stats and scores are continuously updated, along with fast odds.

Bethard sports pool is mainly focused on the British market. By accessing the site from the UK, the client is offered with quick links to sports like football, horse racing, darts, rugby, snooker – simply everything that brits like. Change the initial location, for example, to Denmark and quick links offered are more adapted to the selected area – ice hockey, trotting, etc.

Football, like in any other bookmaker in the world, is the most popular market, with Bethard bet markets like total goals, double chance, Asian handicaps, over/under, three-way handicap, odd/even, and last to score. Horse racing is perhaps the second popular sport at the site, and many think it’s one of the best horse racing betting sites for big events such as Cheltenham and the Grand National.

The Bethard sportsbook is a part of Bethard Group Limited. 

Bethard is located in Malta and holds a license from the Malta Gaming Authority. Additionally, it is also licensed by the UK Gambling Commission for its Bethard UK players peace of mind.

It also holds further local licenses in Spain, Sweden, Denmark, and Ireland. These licenses mean that the Bethard sportsbook is a very legitimate and secure operator. 

Bethard is very strict in terms of user account verification. UK customers won’t even be able to deposit until they prove their identity. For the rest of the world, a customer will be given 30 days to verify themselves (passport/ID copy, utility or bills copy, bank statement). In some cases, they could request proof of wealth/income.

There are some negative complaints on the web, but we are considering them as fake as the majority as our team never had any issues with Bethard.

The Bethard sportsbook also employs state-of-the-art security measures to protect and encrypt the sensitive information of all players.

Deposits

To wager at Bethard, you’ll need to deposit some real money into your account. If we’re honest, there aren’t really that many Bethard deposit options to choose from. For example, UK customers have only six available deposit options, which is tiny for most sportsbook of their level. For the vast majority of payment methods, the minimum deposit sum is 10£/€. Deposits usually reflect instantly in your Bethard account. Bank transfers may take a little longer due to relevant bank checks.

Withdrawals

If you want to take advantage of the Bethard cash-out feature, you can conduct a Bethard withdrawal via Skrill, Neteller, Trustly, Visa or Mastercard starting from 20£/€. From our perspective, Trustly is a natural pick top choice as they provide instant money operations and maximum withdrawal amount is 50,000$ (according to Bethard’s support provided info).

Back up

The customer service options include email and live chat. There is no Bethard contact number listed under its help menu.

The quickest option is the live chat feature. Bethard Live support is available 24 hours a day.  You can expect to receive a response within 1-5 minutes. If you have a complicated request, email may be a better choice. But, be prepared to wait up to a day or two for a reply. However, we got lucky and got an email response in under 2 hours.

There is also a comprehensive FAQ section on its website, which may aid you in finding an answer to your question.

The live-betting feature is well-designed, and you can wager on more than 30,000 live events every month. The mobile app provides convenience. Customer service is efficient with quick response times. Payment methods are reliable and cover familiar options.

Let’s end up this Bethard review by summarizing all the available features.

Advantages

Pre-match and Live in-game cash-outs

Odds above market average

Bet builder option

British favourite sports included: Football, Horse racing, Cricket, Darts, Snooker

Incredibly broad betting market for horse racing

Superb 100% sign up bonus

Limitations

Huge restriced countries list

Phone support unavailable

No live-streaming

Limited payment method list

There are some downsides to this operator. The unavailability of live-streaming is a significant limitation, considering this feature is already available at various top bookie sites. Bethard’s promotions are somewhat limited as well, though the welcome bonus is worthwhile and has no wagering requirements. The fact that Bethard offers 95%+ payout on football markets makes it a perfect and safe spot for footy punters. Bethard was successfully tested and approved by the MightyTips football experts!
