Intertops Review

From what we’ve seen, odds offered at Intertops are lower than the market average. A few examples from tennis and soccer:

Disclaimer: your mileage on margins may vary depending on the event.

The provider offers only a mobile browser version of the website compatible with Android and iOS. There are no native dedicated applications for this sportsbook.

There are several lucrative offers from Intertops to try and sway players it’s way. It has three different first deposit bonuses – each one with its own rules and turnover requirements.

Granted, a user cannot claim all three of them at once, but choosing the one that suits you the most is always a nice thing. Aside from the first deposit bonus, there are also accumulator bonuses that reward winning with the highest odds selected and the most net profit, and a number of lesser bonuses like an occasional free bet (that has to be turned over 16 times to be accessible for withdrawal).

Intertops offers 12 sports and 4 non-sports markets for its users. Except for volleyball, almost all of the largest sports are covered. From the non-sports, there are limited politics, entertainment, stock market and lottery events for betting.

Despite being one of the oldest bookmakers on the market, Intertops does not seem to hold any gaming licences outside of local ones. When asked about this, their support team gave us a “We’re not at liberty to disclose this” response. For a regular user, it means that Intertops regulations come from a local licence – however helpful or unhelpful it might be – rather than from an established gaming authority. It does not mean that you will be defrauded of your money at Intertops, just that there might be a lack of regulations of gaming practices of the company depending on your location.

On the other hand, the company does have an extensive history. Having been online since 1996, Intertops claim to have placed the very first sports bet in the world, which could even be true. It is a well-established brand with an excellent reputation, and during our research, we’ve not encountered any complaints about this sportsbook.

Although Intertops covers most main deposit methods, their withdrawals are a bit lacking in terms of available options and payout limits. On the plus side, the website provides you with all the necessary information for discovering your deposit and withdrawal options.

* For Neteller, Intertops allows two free withdrawals, every 28 days. Each additional withdrawal during that time frame will be charged $15.

It is somewhat fitting that every step of the way you are being reminded about how old Intertops is. Because it does feel old – and not in a good way. It’s like comparing action to inertia: while many young, fast and hungry bookmakers strive to leap into action, Intertops seems to be moved solely by inertia.

If we put lyrics aside, Intertops has a renovated website, which is ok at best and quite basic at worst. It should ideally have a new live betting section, but this was inaccessible at the time of writing (some of our sources claim that the section has been under construction for at least half a year). Intertops covers the main sports, like soccer, basketball etc.. Still, overall there is a very limited amount of markets available, and the betting line is not extensive at all with only 14 additional bets for each event. The new player experience is fine in terms of bonuses, but lack of dedicated Android and iOS applications may somewhat sour it.

The service provider surely has the advantage of being around for a long time, which should mean a steady audience. Looking into the Intertops’s history, we certainly believe that once upon a time it was a pioneer in sports betting… but it’s not 1996 anymore.
