Bonuses & Promotions

6 / 10

The Betsafe sign up offer is subject to change, and may vary depending on your location. There are offers for the sportsbook and casino, as well as a special welcome poker deal. Rather than enter a promo code, you’ll need to choose your offer when you complete the signup process and make your first deposit.

Betsafe doesn’t offer any welcome bonus for British bettors for now. However, you can enjoy other bonuses:

  • the highest odds challenge
  • the live sports cash race

We recommend ticking the box at registration to receive Betsafe promotions via email so that you can get new and tailored offers straight to your inbox.

Odds

7 / 10

From the bet slip, you can change how you view the odds, with the traditional decimal, fractional, and American odds being your three choices. At the Betsafe sportsbook, you also have the option to decide whether you will accept all odds changes, or have your bet slip returned for confirmation of the change, which is a nice touch.

Betsafe odds are around the market average, although slightly on the lower side, with soccer and ice hockey not being the most competitive odds that you’ll find. There are some high payouts to be found, as American football compares well.

Mobile

8 / 10

There are two main ways to enjoy the Betsafe mobile experience. The mobile version of the site gives access to the majority of the features and games and works well for the casino. Sports bettors may prefer the Betsafe app, as it is the most straightforward way to access all of the information, and the bet slip is easy to submit.

The applications are available for Android and iOS users. Once you’ve signed in, all of your account details and history will be there, so you can carry out all of your transactions on your smartphone or tablet if you prefer.

Usability

7 / 10

The black, red, and white theme for the Betsafe betting site looks good, and the design makes it easy enough to find what you need. There are a few images and graphics; otherwise, the information is neatly organized, just where you need it. The different sides of the operation can be selected from the toolbar at the top, and the sportsbook has a sports menu that you can expand to view the full list of sports.

Types of Bets

8 / 10

With more than 30 types of markets, as well as specials, there are plenty of ways to place wagers at Betsafe. There is substantial coverage of the most popular sports, and MMA also gets some attention here. Athletics, cycling, darts, and esports all have several betting opportunities. The TV events we found were somewhat limited, but there was an interesting array of politics and business bets.

In terms of Betsafe sports, most of the action is split between in-play and upcoming, and outrights. The depth of sports markets in Betsafe betting was disappointing. For a forthcoming match in NBA, we could only bet on the match-winner, as well as the outright bets for the NBA Championship, the conferences, and each division winner. There are also a few player prop bets.

Besides the enhanced accas, the other appealing features of the betting section are the bet builder, which helped to display the wide choice of bets for a soccer match. A large number of the bets we came across allowed us to cash out our bets early, which is an excellent way to cut your losses or guarantee a profit.

Credibility

7 / 10

A credibility check always means a look at the licenses to answer is Betsafe legit. Since Betsafe operates in many locations, it has several licenses, which is a positive sign. They hold a license with The Malta Gaming Authority and the UK Gambling Commission, which is good news for customers at Betsafe UK. They are also overseen by the Republic of Ireland’s regulatory bodies, and the Swedish Gambling Authority.

Customers can find out more about Betsafe’s practices from its game rules, terms and conditions, and privacy policy, which is all available on the website. They display an AskGamblers certificate of trust and work with several responsible gambling organizations, including GamStop and GamCare.

Despite the certificate of trust, there are several existing complaints from customers who have not been able to withdraw their funds or have experienced a delay in withdrawing. There are also instances of other customers complaining about being limited after a few months on the site.

Payment Methods

5 / 10

Deposits

The Betsafe deposit methods are limited and focus on the most commonly used payment types. There is a service fee for using a Visa or MasterCard to deposit, which ranges from 0% up to 2.50%, which you may want to avoid. Minimum deposits start at $10.

Withdrawals

There are no charges for a Betsafe withdrawal, although the choice of methods is small. The verification process for accounts and withdrawal may cause delays in payment, even though processing times are shown to be 2-5 days at most. The minimum amount for withdrawal is $20 or €10 for PayPal.

Overall

6.9 / 10

Betsafe is a good all-rounder with a long reputation in the business. The casino, sportsbook, and poker services offer a good range of games, tournaments and betting options. It’s a concern to see the complaints about limits and withdrawal issues, which is something to keep in mind.

  • Limitations
  • Withdrawal issues

The licenses and number of regulators are reassuring, and Betsafe has a smooth operation otherwise. Overall, as a sportsbook, Betsafe has got most things right but doesn’t do anything particular to offer value or stand out from the crowd.
