Description
|
Licensed by the governments of Antigua and Barbuda, SportsBetting.com is operating from the Caribbean under parent company Real Entertainment, Ltd. With generous bonuses and incentives that include weekly chance to win $100,000, SportsBetting has always been a major player in the industry. The company has been established for over 15 years, and they currently processes millions of dollars in bets each week.
The website, while lacking in information and details, provides a straightforward approach towards sports betting. Account creation and wagering are relatively simple, albeit geared towards the more experience player. Deposits are accepted 24-hours a day, using Credit Card (VISA, MasterCard), NETeller, FirePay, Citadel eChecks, CentralCoin, Phone Deposit by On Demand Funds, Bank Wire Transfer or FedEx-ing a Check. Western Union deposits are not accepted.
New customers will benefit from a 10% bonus added to their first deposit. Since the industry-standard V-chips betting system is used, most players will find the system intuitive and simple. The lines offered are indeed impressive and include, for example, Pick 3-of-4 parlays and a Gridiron Pick 'em worth $500,000. The lack of information and statistics, however, takes away from the betting process for all but the most seasoned players.
Sports offered at SportsBetting include little more than the usual suspects: Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Soccer, Auto Racing, Golf, Tennis, Horse Racing & Boxing. Customers also have access to an integrated Race Book and casino, which is often an added bonus and a way to kill time for users awaiting the results of football or hockey game.
Once ready to withdraw funds, users can select from receiving their winnings by NETeller, FirePay or Check. The withdrawal format is dictated by the deposit: funds deposited via NETeller or Firepay must be credited in the same way, while all other deposit methods are paid out via check. The minimum withdrawal amount is only $20, and the site doesn't charge any fees in addition to the FedEx shipping charges.
The customer service organization is a clear strength for SportsBetting. The site offers toll-free, 24-hour access numbers for both the US and the UK, and representatives were readily available and eager to please. Around-the-clock support is also available via email and online chat, a rapidly expanding form of customer relations for online wagering sites.
The SportsBetting website is clearly an established and attractive destination for online wagering. The site's approach is clearly to target experienced players who are looking for major events and attractive lines, rather than niche players or beginners. The site achieves this quite nicely, attracting users with strong offers, although a content overhaul and additional information, rules, and help sections are much needed.
