We continue our look at both the old and new online casinos with a look now at the Betway site. Here you can find a number of different options including Betway Sports, Casino, Live Casino and Esports.

Our in-depth examination of what Betway offers its customers will cover the important aspects of the site, ranging from customer service, licensing, payment options and site dynamics, through to welcome bonuses, long term offers and responsible gambling tools.

Remember too, we don’t pull any punches here. If a site does something very well, we’ll of course let you know, but if the site falls below our expectations in any area, we’ll tell you that straight too!

Let’s begin with a quick preview of the main review with a look at some of the Pros and Cons of the Betway family of sites.

Welcome Bonus and Other Betway Promotions

One immediate positive for new Betway customers is that they have four options when it comes to a welcome bonus. Two for Betway Sports and Two for Betway Casino.

The good news for customers is that there is no Betway promo code required to access either of the two welcome bonuses available on each of the Sports and Casino sites.

Website Interface and Usability

In our review we have to report that we found the Betway website very easy to use. In terms of user-friendliness and looks alone, it is certainly one of the most accessible sites we have come across. There is just the right mix of images and text on each page, set out in such a way as it appears uncluttered and logical to access.

This usability is reflected across all areas of the site with simple menu-driven options allowing you to find the bets you want to make or games you want to play. The site is speedy, stable and ticks all the boxes for a customer wanting a secure platform on which to gamble.

Mobile Options

What did our Betway app review find out? Well, Betway offers two apps for both Android and iOS devices. The first is a Betway Sports app, which also includes Esports betting. The second is the Betway Casino app, which also includes access to the Live Casino part of the site.

We found the mobile apps to be as user-friendly and intuitive as the website and can safely say that in terms of its infrastructure and software, Betway is certainly one of the easiest to access services for mobile or desktop based customers.

Payment Options

Customers using Betway have a broad choice of payment methods available, although cryptocurrency wagering is not accepted.

Accepted Payment Methods

Deposit Details

The minimum deposit method across all the different payment methods that accept deposits is £10.

Withdrawal Details

Processing time for withdrawals is dependent upon which method you use from the list above and can range from as little as two hours to 1-2 business days.

Customer Service Review

So far so good for this Betway review, but here is our first gripe and it is a big one. Customer service options are not as accessible or user-friendly as they should be.

Let’s explore why.

Support Options

Help Resources

A big positive is the extensive help section, which does cover all of the most common queries. It is clear Betway want customers to use this resource rather than use Chat or customer services.

However, the Chat option, which has to be navigated to through the Help section, is automated and many times, the bot will refer you to an article which often does not deal exactly with the query you need answering.

Licensing and Security

Betway’s site is fully secured with industry-standard SSL technology and it is licensed for use in countries in which it operates. For example, in the UK, it operates under a Gambling Commission licence number 39372.

Is Betway Legit?

Given that it holds all the licences we have outlined above and has robust security procedures, plus has high-profile sponsorship deals with Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea and Brighton football clubs, it is certainly fair to say Betway is entirely legit.

Betway Sports Book Review

Betting Markets

In terms of betting markets, Betway offers an outstanding choice of sports, fixtures and individual betting markets on these fixtures. Top soccer matches, for example, will have hundreds of different betting options to pick from across a wide range of different bet types. If you like variation in your sports bets, from sport to sport and from market to market, Betway certainly delivers on all counts.

Odds Value

This is where Betway’s offering does have a little dip. In comparison, we feel Betway’s odds tend to be middle of the pack compared to similar sites for most options and for others it tends to be on the lower side. That doesn’t mean you can’t get long term value here, but it does mean that if value odds are your primary concern when betting, then Betway tends not to offer the best value for most markets.

Live Betting & Streaming

Live betting on Betway is a real joy. The interface is easy to find, and very well designed making you able to keep tabs on the action in your chosen fixture and all the available in-play markets. In terms of presentation, Betway Live Betting is superb.

The only down side of the In Play service is a lack of streaming.

Betting Limits

Betting limits will vary from the individual user to user and also from the different bet types. In addition, as part of their safer gambling remit, Betway will also allow users to set betting limits on their account to ensure they gamble responsibly.

Betway Casino Review

With a selection of over 500 rich and varied casino games, Betway Casino offers a smaller than usual number of options compared to some of its main rivals. But the good news is that all the games on offer on the site are very high quality.

Software Providers

Game Selection

Live Casino

Betting Limits

As with the Betway Sports site, the individual betting limits at the casino depend on the game you are playing. Bets can be made from just a few cents up to hundreds or thousands per game. Live Dealer games tend to offer higher value betting options for higher stakes players.

Betway Esports Review

In our review, we felt that Betway offered one of the best esports betting sites for customers that we have come across outside of specialised esports betting services.

Available Games

Odds Value

As with their Sports betting service, we found that Betway’s odds for esports were generally middle of the pack, but we did find some examples of them offering better value than competitors on a number of markets, notably for CS2.

Live Esports Betting and Streaming

Unfortunately, Betway doesn’t offer streaming on the site, but it does have an excellent In-Play betting service for esports, which covers many of the fixtures you can bet on in the standard betting markets.

Betway’s Presence in the Casino Streaming Scene

Betway is not one of the larger casinos when it comes to online streaming. Customers looking for streamers to watch playing games at Betway will likely find significantly fewer options compared to other sites.

Our Betway Review Conclusion

Like many sites, we don’t really find the criticism in the Betway Trustpilot reviews necessarily fair or accurate. In our opinion, if you are asking can Betway be trusted, then we have to say that from our review that yes they can. They hold all the relevant licenses to operate legally and from our experience reviewing and using the site, we have not come across any issues.

As such we have no hesitation recommending Betway to new customers. If you want to check out a similar site with great options, our bet365 review is a great place to start, especially for sports betting fans. Casino enthusiasts may find our Leovegas review more to their liking.

FAQs

Is it safe to play at Betway?

Yes, given that Betway is fully licensed, has partnerships with several top football clubs and has a secure, SSL-protected site, you can be sure that your account and details are secure at Betway. All games are eCogra certified too.

Does Betway pay real money?

Yes, Betway pays real money on all its sites. Occasionally, a customer may be awarded bonus cash which has a wagering requirement attached before it can be withdrawn. However for standard gameplay and bets using real cash, Betway pays out real cash to winners.

How long does Betway take to pay out?

Withdrawals can take anywhere from 2 hours up to 2 working days depending on the withdrawal method used.
