For one of the most sophisticated and complete sports betting experiences out there, you could do a lot worse than signing up with Betsafe. The sportsbook is owned by the Swedish gambling company Betsson and is incredibly well run. From the huge menu of sports to bet on, modern software and valuable promotions, it’s hard to find any weaknesses. Our Betsafe sportsbook review explains why we like it so much.

Sports markets and bet types

4.5

The opinion of Ian

"Betsafe combines an extremely comprehensive range of betting options with one of the largest menus of sports we’ve come across anywhere. That said, thanks to great software the site is still very beginner friendly".

Singles are always the most popular bets, and Betsafe gives them the most prominence on the site. Each way bets are easy to place too, and you can simply choose the option once you’ve added a bet to your bet slip.

Choose your bet

The bet slip appears in the panel on the right-hand side of the screen. It’s a really effective feature. You can add as many bets as you want, which makes it easy to build parlay bets and accumulators. The bet slip is intelligent, so it offers you all the different possible multi-bet options once you add a few specific wagers.For users who want to bet on more technical things, the Betsafe sportsbook has a full menu of prop bets too. Just click on any match to reveal all the possible bets associated with it. Popular matches have hundreds of markets which allows you to bet on almost anything. Betsafe also has futures bets for all sports, if you prefer to bet on the overall winner at the end of the season.Another area that impressed us is the live betting section. All the in-play events are gathered in one place. It’s easy to cycle between sports to see the different options. Color coded flashes help you keep track of how the odds are changing. Red means they have gone down, and green means they have gone up. You still have a full menu of prop bets for live games too.The number of sports available to bet on at Betsafe more than matches the huge menu of betting options. If you want to bet on the biggest sporting events in the world they are all here.Major leagues including the NFL, MLB, NHL and NBA are all included, as well as major events like the Olympics, the World Cup and the Champions League. You can also bet on tons of domestic leagues from around the world including football, basketball, hockey, baseball and soccer. There’s also motorsports, boxing, MMA, tennis, golf, chess and way more. There really are too many sports to list. You can even bet on TV and politics.

Bonuses and promotions

3.8

The opinion of Ian

"As well as the sportsbook, Betsafe has an active online casino. In fact, if you download the Betsafe sports app you will have automatic access to the casino too. For this reason, some of the bonuses and promotions that Betsafe run are more focused on the casino than the sportsbook. This is a nice perk for people who want to both bet on sports and play online casino games like roulette or blackjack".

If you’re not interested in casino, don’t worry. There are lots of sports betting bonuses available too.One promotion that is sportsbook specific that we really liked was the “enhanced accas”. These are basically accumulators or parlays with boosted odds. Betsafe selects a number of parlays from the biggest sports every day to receive boosted odds. Using these regularly can really make a big difference in your winnings in the long run, plus it’s fun to see what has been chosen every day.Betsafe has other promotions starting and finishing all the time too. If you use Betsafe regularly, you can expect to pick up free bets along the way, or be able to take advantage of money back offers.For live betting, Betsafe has another great feature that can save you a lot of money. The “Cash Out” feature allows users to end their bet early, for reduced odds. We’ve all experienced a late-game upset that costs us a big winning bet so it’s nice to have the option to lock in a profit regardless of what happens.The cash out option is just another example of Betsafe giving users the very best chances to maximise winnings, and adding an extra element of excitement to live betting.

Banking

4.3

The opinion of Ian

"We were impressed with the banking options and fast processing times for withdrawals at Betsafe".

E-wallet services are a popular way to manage your funds with sportsbooks and Betsafe allows users to both deposit and withdraw using Skrill, Neteller and PayPal. You can also use your debit or credit card and there is a prepaid card option. However, the most convenient option for many users is likely to be the bank transfer, which sends the money directly from your bank account to that of Betsafe.Whichever method you choose, during our tests the funds were deposited and ready to bet with immediately.Betsafe has a withdrawal policy that encourages users to withdraw their funds using the same method they deposited. It’s pretty common among online sportsbooks and casinos and makes practical sense because the site can automatically verify it’s going to the right account. It also removes the need to find two different methods to manage your funds.Betsafe says withdrawals will be completed within 24 hours but during our tests we received our money much more quickly.We also really appreciated how quickly Betsafe settles winning bets. The sportsbook says that the policy is to settle within 15 minutes, but ours were often settled within a minute or two. Of course, there are exceptions to this for more complicated events, but in general you can expect to have your winnings available to bet with or withdraw almost immediately.

Security and fair play

4.0

The opinion of Ian

"Betsafe really lives up to its name. Security is a strong point. The company is registered in Malta, but has received a gaming licence from the gaming commission of every country that it is currently available in".

The terms and conditions you agree to when you sign up explain exactly what you can expect from the company. All of your data is private, and your funds are protected so you never have to worry about your money disappearing.If you have any specific questions about security, you can always contact Betsafe directly. If you navigate to the “Help Centre” you have the option of using email, a phone call or live chat to talk to a customer service agent. We found the live chat to be the best option and we had our questions answered immediately during our tests.You can also find a long list of FAQs in the Help Center which contain loads of useful information. You can search them by keyword too, so chances are you won’t even need to contact an agent.Overall we are very satisfied with Betsafe’s security and customer support. We didn’t run into a lot of problems using the site but it’s good to know there’s a dedicated team ready to help if you do.

The opinion of Ian

"Using Betsafe’s desktop website is just one way to play. On the Betsafe mobile app you can access all the same betting options and tools, but from your phone. You even have the same streaming options in the live betting section. The Betsafe app is really convenient and makes it easy to keep track of every game and every bet, no matter where you are".

During our tests, we had no issues with the software. The layout is similar to the website and it’s nice to have consistency from one to the other. Depositing funds, contacting customer service, building your parlay bets - everything is just as easy to do and looks great on the small screen.Another bonus with the app is that you get automatic access to the Betsafe casino games too. If you like the idea of using both the sportsbook and the casino together, the app is a great choice.Some users may prefer the bigger screen of the computer, but we found the user experience on the app to be even better. If you don’t want to download the app you can just access the Betsafe mobile site right in your phone or tablet’s internet browser.
