Sports betting has been, remains and, perhaps, will be popular with millions of fans for a long time to come. Today we can say with confidence that this industry, despite numerous prohibitions from the legislative bodies of certain countries, continues to develop. This is facilitated by the introduction of new betting tools, including those offered by the "old-timers" of the market.
One of the companies that appeared at the dawn of the heyday of the betting market is Sportingbet. In addition to her, this also includes William Hill, Bwin, Bet888 and others.
Online bookmakers
In addition to the fact that each of the mentioned offices has entire networks of representative offices in real life, they also carry out successful activities offline. So, each has a large portal, developed in most cases for different countries (for example, there is Sportingbet.cz - the Czech “mirror” of the Sportingbet website). Every day, such sites are visited by millions of players who place thousands of bets. And, despite the fact that there are quite a lot of bookmakers, each has a whole market in which they successfully operate. Sportingbet.com is no exception. About herwe will talk in the framework of this article.
Sportingbet bookmaker
The history of this BC, one might say, is not much different from how similar projects developed and were created. Sportingbet was launched back in 1998, and already in 2006 it entered the global market. The home of the project is the USA. It was from there that the first players were attracted. True, today in the territory of this country there is a law that prohibits the activities of offices that accept bets, which is why the company exists on the Internet. In addition, it has offices in several dozen countries from Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. According to the company's reports, the bookmaker Sportingbet accepts bets in total in the amount of almost 2 billion pounds sterling per year. The company's profit is relatively small - only 20-25 million.
The office has been translated into 20 languages, it, as already noted, works in different national domain zones (the address Sportingbet.ru, for example, also functions successfully). This testifies to the individual approach of developers to positioning in different markets.
Sports betting
Sportingbet (player reviews call this a huge plus) offers bets on more than 24 different sports. In addition to, of course, football (as the most popular of all existing today), they are also ready to accept bets on darts, cricket, golf and others. Here they are even ready to accept them on the outcome of various political events, which is clearlyfans of predicting such things will like it.
In general, the Sportingbet bookmaker, in addition to the reputation of one of the oldest players, also has a tool for customizing the interface (depending on which country the user came from), a wide range of payment options and, of course, a lot of tools, with which you can place bets. A real paradise for a betting lover, what can I say!
Live Betting
Interesting for sports fans is another mechanism. This is the acceptance of bets directly during the broadcast of a match or game. Such bets are called Live, which translates from English as “live”. At one time, they came to bookmakers, after which they won the hearts of many fans. The main principle of such games is the possibility of accepting bets during matches. Accordingly, the odds for a particular outcome will vary depending on how the course of the game turns.
In fact, live betting is nothing new. It should just be said that the Sportingbet office allows bets in the course of events, and this function is implemented well. A lot of users leave positive recommendations regarding this method of sports predictions. For some, betting "live" is also the main method of earning. In particular, on the Internet you can find a lot of guides on how to win money in this way.
Registration in BC
So, if you already have an account on the site"Sportingbet" ("mirror", for example, with a.ru or even.cz domain is also considered), you can skip this section. If you are new to the world of betting and you would like to try working with this office, you are welcome to start by creating an account. You can do this directly on the company's website using a special link.
The office requires a list of data from you that most fully identifies your personality. In particular, these are: name, surname, address of residence, as well as some passport data. Do not forget that in order to place bets on Sportingbet, you must be over 18 years old. It may be that the project administration will ask you to send a photo (or scan) of a document that can confirm this condition.
In general, it should be said that registration in this office is quite simple in itself and takes no more than a few minutes. You will be notified via email after it has been completed, and after that it will be possible to fund your account and start placing bets.
Sportingbet bonuses
Like all other betting resources, according to reviews, Sportingbet offers its users some bonuses and additional privileges. For example, the office has a rule to provide so-called free bets for a certain amount, due to which you can win something. This is both useful in terms of attracting users, and pleasant for the people themselves who make predictions.
In addition to bonuses related to sports betting, the company has a number of similar promotions for casinos. Of course, in order to win them, you must either spend a certain amount of money on bets, or simply hit the right time. In general, according to reviews, Sportingbet offers a whole calendar of bonuses. You can navigate along it if you want to get some nice prize in the form of the same free bets, for example.
Deposit and payout methods
No matter what bonuses the office has, you must always understand that in order to make bets, in any case, you will have to enter some money. There are several ways to do this at once.
Obviously, methods that are suitable for Sportingbet.cz, such as PayPal or Neteller, will not work for users from Russia. Therefore, the company provided for this by connecting also such payment systems that are used by us - Ya. Dengi, Webmoney and Qiwi. It is noteworthy that it will be possible to receive your winnings in the same system.
Another nice thing that concerns any user is commissions. Experienced players know that most bookmakers charge a certain percentage for depositing and withdrawing money, due to which the final profit decreases against the interests of the user. Sportingbet (reviews will not let you lie about this) does not charge commissions from its participants, due to which the final amount of the winnings remains untouched. Let the collection of the system is not so significant, but still it is very nice. Under equal conditions, a person, in the end, can choose thisoffice, if it will not be inferior to competing companies in everything else.
Customer support
In addition to a well-thought-out financial mechanism, the office also boasts a high-quality interface that can satisfy all user needs, as well as a high-level support service.
Thus, according to official data, players are served for 10 hours by more than 150 operators. Each of them is promptly able to respond to the request that interests the client. In addition, Sportingbet is a bookmaker whose reviews mention a special service - accepting bets by phone. This is a really new feature that can make the work of those users who are without access to the Internet more comfortable. In order to bet, the player only needs to call the dedicated line, dictate the details of his account and clarify his decision. The operator will bet.
Access to Sportingbet
Like other projects in this area, "Sportingbet" has a "mirror" (a resource located on a different domain and IP address), which can be accessed if the main address is blocked. These can be, as already noted, addresses in other domain zones - ru, cz, pl, de, fr (depending on the country where the office operates).
Cases of blocking an address can occur, for example, if the provider has closed access to the portal due to the activity thathe carries out (gambling and betting). In our country, this ban is not common, as, for example, in the States, so it is unlikely that anyone will establish a taboo on this bookmaker at the provider level. The maximum is the blocking of working computers in the office, which can be bypassed using proxy services or VPN. In this case, you don't need a "mirror" to enter Sportingbet.
Poker and Casino sections at Sportingbet
Like other services that accept bets, this office allows users to try their luck with the help of their daughter projects - poker rooms and casinos.
Their purpose is clear: people who often bet on sports are prone to excitement. This means that in the moments when they have funds available, but there is no significant sporting event, such users can happily part with the funds in one of the categories of the Sportingbet site - casino or at the poker table.
On the first one, everything is clear - this is a standard set of roulette and slot machines, which are designed solely for the user's luck. Those who are confident in their abilities, for example, can easily double their winnings on bets in such a simple way. The main thing is that the need for some kind of excitement will be eliminated, and the project will earn some money.
As for poker, the situation is somewhat different. Poker is played by a category of people who can dryly analyze the facts, which, as a rule, wins. At the same time, of course, such a person may be interested in sports betting. Then,of course, the Sportingbet service is simply designed for him. It is convenient because the interface, as well as the cashier, is the same here - you can actually play and place bets at the same time.
Reviews. Sportingbet through the eyes of players
As a result, we can cite some of the main positions. They are voiced by reviews. Sportingbet has generally positive recommendations. This applies, as already noted, to bonuses for new players, financial instruments for betting, the number of games that the office works with, and various additional opportunities that open up for the player.
Negative feedback refers to individual situations. For example, people complain that after a streak of wins, they are suddenly hit by several big losses that result in the loss of the entire pot. Other categories of complaints are theft and alteration of personal data. A person, for example, claims that his password was changed by the administration of the resource in order to steal the funds on the account.
Of course, the egregious facts described above are unacceptable for a bookmaker. However, they cannot be confirmed or disproved. Besides, it's hard to believe that a billion-dollar business would be doing this to steal someone's hundreds of dollars.
Therefore, think whether you should trust such recommendations or not. And good luck with your bets!
