Summary
Bet365 Sportsbook Rating
Bet365 has been in business for over 20 years in the United Kingdom. The betting menu and interface are good but not outstanding. The live betting interface on the computer is easy to navigate and make bets fast. The app has all of the bets that would be expected. Bet365 was once one of the leaders in the online sports betting world but the features offered have been copied by several other sportsbooks.
An advantage that Bet365 has is that it has a large user base and deep pockets. This does allow Bet365 to move fast in an area when it becomes popular.
Overall, Bet365 is a solid sportsbook but like many in this market it does not really standout with sports or bets offered. In the UK Bet365 is known for having a top of the line customer service department and there is no reason to expect any less in the US. Where Bet365 fails is with the bonus and rewards programs. Neither offers any real incentive to make Bet365 your sportsbook.
Bet365 Sportsbook Review 2023
Bet365 key features
Live betting
This is an area where Bet365 is worth having a at least a second sportsbook. I wouldn’t open an account just for the live betting platform but I would want it for fast line shopping. If you are a regular with in-play sports betting then I recommend using Bet365 on your desktop. Live betting shopping should always be done on a desktop with all of your books open in a tab.
Early cash out
This feature has become very common with sportsbooks. An example would be if you had bet the over on an NFL game such as the Buccaneers vs Chiefs in the Super Bowl and the score after 3 quarters was 21 to 21 with the total set at 48.5. While you haven’t won the bet yet, there is a good likelihood that you will. Bet365 will let you take the win now and not risk the game going under the total. Now, you won’t get full credit for the win but you will get paid now. This means you can use the win to make more in-play wagers.
Live streaming
Another service that was offered by big players like Bet365 that has become more common with sportsbooks as they add partnership deals with sports leagues and media outlets. Some games will be available for live streaming within the sports betting interface. Sportsbooks are doing everything they can to maximize live betting opportunities.
Casino
I wouldn’t join Bet365 for the casino games offered. There are many other platforms that offer the same games with a betting welcome bonus. If you do like to play some games on the side, Then Bet365 can accommodate you but, if you a casino game regular then shop around for a better bonus and rewards program.
bet365 Mastercard
Offered in New Jersey the bet365 Mastercard works just like any other debit card. One thing I say I do like about Bet365 is the ability to access my money fast. Did you have a big win today? Want to buy some new clothes or go out on the town and enjoy it? With the Bet365 Mastercard you can. This is an area where Mastercard & Visa have not delivered yet. A debit card that would allow access to all of my sportsbook accounts. Maybe one day but for now I really like this feature.
Bet365 sports available
Each state can limit what sports can be bet on so the menu can change. Some states do not allow betting on college games played by teams in the state. Some may ban pro teams in their state. Below is a general betting menu of available sports for most states served by Fanduel.
| · Baseball · Basketball · Boxing · Football · Golf | · Hockey · MMA · NASCAR · Soccer · Tennis |
Bet365 Bet Options
Big matches come with plenty of betting options across different categories. The bookmaker is really aiming to have something for everyone.

Bet365 Sports Betting App
The Bet365 is available for Android and iOS. The bet365 app supports live betting, live streaming, and early cash-out, The interface is easy to navigate. As always, I recommend that you take the time to get used to the differences in the mobile interface as compared to the desktop. Users can sign in using their fingerprint if this is supported on your phone.
One reason to test out the app before you deposit is to make sure it operates on your phones software version and that the geo-location works properly. Download the app and signup without making a deposit. The geo-location will attempt to verify that you are within the state licensed by Bet365. Once you have been verified and you have looked at a few betting options to make sure the app does not lockup on your phone. Then it is time to make a deposit and get started.
Depositing money into Bet365 Sportbook
The minimum deposit is $10 and the wagering requirements are as low as 20x, which is much lower than we’ve seen at other NJ online casinos.
Deposits can be made through:
- Visa
- Mastercard
- Discover
- PayNearME (7-11 stores)

- Paypal
- Cash
- e-Check
Withdrawals can be made by:

Making a Bet
Making bets is easy with the app or on your computer. The app screen has useful easy to read links at the top for you to choose the sports you want from the icons. Choose NFL or MLB and a list of games available is presented. Spreads, totals and money lines are readily available. I do like the in-play betting screen for mobile wagering and if you will be making live bets then this app is a good one for it.
On a desktop the screen is well laid out and within a few minutes you should be able to learn the interface and move quickly to any bet type. Bet365 was once the leader in this area but others have copied it enough that it no longer stands out but is still a very intuitive interface.
Below are a couple of pics of the desktop interface.
