We’ve covered the casino and poker elements of Betway’s online gambling megasite, and found them to be quite good (the games are stellar, with Microgaming software for a guarantee of fundamental quality). With no difference between the customer service and general site security and stability (again, quite good!), all that remains is to determine whether sports bettors can have the same satisfying experience at Betway as casino patrons and poker fans.

First of all, the first thing that you’ll notice if you’re coming from the Casino to the Betting section is the vastly different design, which more resembles the Games or Poker section…or any number of other sports betting sites which provide a clean and clear page with all of the betting types on the left side and the main content in the center. It’s practical, it’s easy to use, and it’s refreshingly free of needless distractions. Exactly what we like to see.

When you get into the actual betting, this same user-friendliness and clarity only increases. Betway lets you narrow down the options until you see exactly what you want and nothing else; the floating “Betslip” stays with you like a miniature shopping cart, giving you immediate feedback on any bets made during your current session.

The categories cover every major sport and plenty of less common types as well (hooray for Futsal and Floorball fans). The football section is particularly extensive, but Tennis and Hockey bets are surprisingly varied (though some of that is, of course, seasonal). From what we’ve seen, the only possible way that you’ll only be disappointed is if you go to sportsbooks to bet on entertainment or political lines; Betway doesn’t offer as many ‘exotics’ as some of the more gimmicky gambling sites.

The lines/ odds are quite competitive — as good as most major online sportsbooks, and better than some. Stats and the Live Score feature both open up in another little browser window, giving you instant confirmation of the latest results without taking you away from the odds. Instead of fantasy football, they have Mythical Matches with the same wide range of options and choices.

Promotions 8/10

Sportsbooks are generally less concerned with bonuses than casinos or poker rooms, mainly designing promotions around specific sports, leagues, or events. On the other hand, Betway’s Welcome Bonus will match your first bet of up to £25 with a Freebet that can be used on virtually any wager on the (sportsbook) site.

Customer Service 9/10

Betway has an exceptional FAQ for every section of the website, including the sportsbook, so there’s a very good chance that any issue you might encounter will have been answered already. Should the self-help options fail you, you may also try the 24/7 Live Chat system or the email option. Email is an extremely good option for those who struggle with any language other than their own, as Betway offers a number of multilingual email addresses and can most likely accommodate many on the Live Chat as well.

Wrap Up

We’re still searching for a flaw in Betway’s multi-pronged approach. The time-worn assumption that a jack of all trades must be a master of none simply doesn’t apply here; the sportsbook is just as good as any of the top sportsbooks that we’ve recommended in the past, without even considering the number of additional gambling options that Betway players can experience.

We’re assured of players’ safety and security (a deal-breaking requirement for our recommendation!), and we’ve heard many stories of complete satisfaction from longtime Betway bettors. We’ve verified the variety of bets, the competitive odds, and the ease of use. Really, there is absolutely no reason than any serious (or casual) sports bettor wouldn’t have a perfect experience at Betway.
