Betway
The Betway bookmaker appeared on the gambling market in 2002. It is officially registered in Malta, like most offices, because it is simply more profitable to pay taxes there. Basically, Betway focuses on Western players. Most of all here the British (almost 50%). Residents of not all countries can register on the site. There are restrictions for citizens of states whose domestic legislation prohibits sports betting.
Website
The main page of the site introduces us to the main functionality of the resource. Here you can select the section you need – sports betting, casino, esports prediction and poker. Here we see that Betway sponsors West Ham Football Club and darts championships. Therefore, in competitions in this sport, as well as on the uniform of the Hammers, we see the name of the Betway bookmaker.
In the upper block there are tabs for selecting the section you need. There is also a blog in which the office itself gives interesting predictions for the upcoming matches. Whether to listen to them is up to you, but they deserve attention, if only because among the recommended coefficients you will almost never find anything below 2.0.
The sports betting section itself looks traditional. The line is on the left, in the center are the upcoming matches, as well as live games, and on the right are all kinds of bonuses and special offers. The “Relevant” block immediately above the line deserves special mention. Here are the most popular events among bettors, such as matches of European football top championships, NBA, NHL, etc.From the top center, you can choose the language that is convenient for you to navigate the site, the format for displaying odds, as well as links to the rules, contacts and feedback form with the bookmaker.
What I don’t particularly like about Betway is the combination of the color palette. A dark background often comes with a green font color, and this does not look very attractive. Although, it is quite possible that this is a matter of taste and you will like this choice of developers.
Line
Bets are available on all popular sports, as well as on political and cultural events. The abundance of markets is at an average level, especially in live. In the prematch, you can bet on the exact score of football matches, the time/match market, handicaps, totals, and, of course, the outcome of the match. Well, in live, the matter is limited to outcomes, totals and odds, with the rare exception of individual matches. The margin at the standard level for most bookmakers is 3-5%. Traditionally, if you bet on exotic markets, the margin will increase.
The maximums here are not cut as actively as at other bookmakers. That is, even having secured some winnings for yourself, you can count on accepting bets at good odds in the future.
Deposit and withdrawal of funds
For depositing and withdrawing funds, the same tools are available that are offered by most bookmakers. Credit cards, virtual payment instruments, bank transfers – it’s all there. It’s nice to have WebMoney in the list of used payment systems, but there is a nuance here – using WebMoney you can only replenish your account, but not withdraw winnings.
The minimum bet here is very small – 10 cents.The maximums are always set individually, depending on what sport you bet on and what kind of game history you have on this site. The rules state that the office does not count more than 100 thousand euros as a win on a single bet.
Support service
Feedback is provided either using a special form on the site, which we mentioned above, or by e-mail. Well, before writing to the bookmaker, make sure that you have conscientiously studied all the information in the “Help” section. This is especially true for beginners who may not know many of the nuances of betting on sports events.
Overall rating
Betway is a solid middle peasant in the betting world of Western Europe. There is nothing outstanding and qualitatively distinguishing this office from others, but there is an acceptable level of service, good odds and a good reputation and history of winnings. We can recommend this office for playing, if not as the main one, as one of the alternative options for betting on sports events.
