What makes BetUK Safe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Betting sites need to deal with sensitive information, including financial and personal details, so it is essential that this information is kept secure. It is essential that betting sites are well regulated and everything that they offer is fair and legal. We set out our key points for making betting sites safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What makes a betting site safe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n All of the information regarding these policies and all terms and conditions are straightforward to find on BetUK\u2019s website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK offer over 30 different sports markets. The bookmaker covers football and horse racing especially well. Other popular sports such as rugby union, cricket, tennis and golf are catered for along with more niche sports such as netball and volleyball. The depth to the football and horse racing markets is impressive with a large variety of leagues and meetings to wager on. The bookmaker also has sections for esports and specials such as politics and TV shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK\u2019s sportsbook consistently offer fair and competitive odds. The company can often boast more attractive odds than many of the bigger bookmakers, especially in football. I looked at three football matches, from the Premier League and the Championship in England, and from the Champions League. Their payout margins averaged at 96.4%. For the same matches bet365 averaged 94.8%, Unibet 95.5% and 10bet 96.2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For Rugby Union I looked at the three fixtures in the third round of Six Nations matches. BetUK\u2019s payout margin was 91.8%. This time they couldn\u2019t match bet365 (93.4%) but were again ahead of Unibet (91.4%) and 10bet (90.3%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n For horse racing I took the 15:45 at Market Resen and, in a six horse race, BetUK had a payout margin of 87.9%. This was slightly ahead of bet365 (87.5%) and also bettered Unibet (86%) and 10bet (84.4%). This shows that the bookie is very competitive in football and horse racing, while their Rugby Union margins are definitely fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Odds can be viewed as fractional or decimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK offer a good range of markets, options and features to enhance your betting experience. You can bet on match results and you can make long term predictions ahead of events (such as who will win next season\u2019s Premier League). There are also various multiples and accumulators available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK have a cash out feature which allows you to lock in a profit or loss before waiting for the event to finish. At the time of writing, they do not offer partial cash out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As well as traditional markets BetUK offer a wide range of options. Individual player props are becoming very popular, and these are available. In football, for some individual players, there are number of special markets set up for number of shots, passes or cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK has a comprehensive bet builder, which is available on a range of sports. There are many options which you can combine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The bookmaker offers a good range of in-play betting options, which allows to monitor the action and place your wagers accordingly. The depth of football markets mean that you can find a match to bet on at most times throughout the day. Other sports to offer in-play betting include tennis, rugby union and cricket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK provides live streaming for horse racing and greyhounds. Overall, however, this aspect of their service is work in progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Also known as accumulators or accas, BetUK allows you to place a variety of these bets. They also offer an Acca Betting Guide and Calculator. This gives you help in terms of looking at wagers you can put together and to work out your potential winners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The bookie have a blog with a range of articles and betting tips. They also have a podcasts featuring brand ambassadors such eight-time Champion Jockey Peter Scudamore and former England footballer Teddy Sherringham who pass on their betting tips on their respective sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are promotions for existing customers, including the Acca Club. Many promotions, tips and other information can be found by clicking on the BetUK Specials tab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the Cheltenham horse racing festival, BetUK have a great sign-up offer for new customers. Place a minimum bet of \u00a310 on the Sportsbook on odds of a minimum of 4\/5 (1.8), and get \u00a330 in free bets. To claim this offer you must opt-in and deposit within 7 days, then settle a \u00a310 minimum bet at odds of 4\/5 (1.8) or greater, to be credited with 3x \u00a310 free bets. These free bets consist of: 2 x \u00a310 Horse Racing and 1 x \u00a310 Free Bet Builder. 7 day expiry. Stake not returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is no deposit bonus available on the sportsbook at BetUK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK often run promos where you can be rewarded with free bets. One example is the Champions League Round of 16. The bookie ran a \u00a32 Free Bet Builder Ahead of the Round of 16 promotion. To qualify you must opt in and stake \u00a310 on any Champions League market to receive a \u00a32 Free Bet Builder bet. Terms and conditions apply. <\/p>\n\n\n\n For horse racing fans there is the Free Bet Club, where you can get 2 x \u00a33 Free Bets every week. When you stake \u00a315 on any horse racing event between Monday and Sunday you get one \u00a33 Free Bet. Within a single weekly Offer Card, you’ll find two offers waiting for you to activate them, giving you the chance to claim a \u00a33 Free Bet each time you bet \u00a315.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Acca club also gives free bets as rewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Acca club has two main advantages. A \u00a35 Free Bet and Profit Boosts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Place a bet of \u00a320 on accumulators with five legs or more (each leg must have minimum odds of 1.2 or more). Upon the settlement of the accumulator, a \u00a35 Free Bet will be credited to your account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you claim your bonus card on your My Promotions page, you will get 5 profit boosts to use on accas with different numbers of selections. The minimum odds per selection is 1.2 (1\/5). The maximum stake to use the profit boosts is \u00a320 and your profit boosts will increase your winnings up to a max of \u00a31000 per boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can claim 5 boosts every week, refreshing every Monday – visit the “My Promotions” page again next week to claim your new boosts. You can claim five profit boosts in a week up to a maximum of a 50% profit boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As ever, terms and conditions apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While BetUK offer a number of promotions with free-bets, they are not currently running any promos with risk-free bets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As mentioned earlier, BetUK have a number of offers available for existing customers, which give you the chance to rack up free bets and profit boosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the time of writing BetUK do not offer a VIP programme on the sportsbook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Firstly, I looked at how to register an account, along with the welcome bonus, terms and conditions, before completing the registration and verification process. I checked out a number of the different sports available before looking in greater detail at specific bets, focusing on football, rugby union and horse racing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I placed a couple of bets to check everything ran smoothly before looking at the customer service section, the terms and conditions and at the information and support on safer gambling. I conducted this research using both the desktop version of the website and the app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The BetUK desktop website is user friendly and allows access to all the different features the site offers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The help section is easily found, and the number of topics covered in this is extensive. The in-play section is easy to use, with regular opportunities for live betting. Some of the pages tend to load a little slower than some of the leading betting websites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK provide an excellent service on mobile devices. The app is responsive, reasonably quick and offers easy access to promotions, different sports markets, and all that the site has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can register a new account with BetUK in a matter of minutes. You simply hit the join button, provide your personal information, select a username, password and security question, enter the bonus code and click join. I have outlined the steps for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After you\u2019re done, you\u2019ll have to go through the Know Your Customer (KYC) process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As mentioned earlier you need to share personal details such as name, a valid email address, a phone number, country of residence and your current address. In order to verify your account you need to go through the following steps, which includes uploading a photo of your Passport, Drivers Licence or National ID. <\/p>\n\n\n\n ID Verification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n You will need to upload a photo of one of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n National ID<\/p>\n\n\n\n Passport<\/p>\n\n\n\n Driver\u2019s Licence<\/p>\n\n\n\n Address Verification<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Copy of a bank statement (less than six months old).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Utility bill (less than six months old).<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK have a number of options available for deposit and withdrawal, though other bookmakers can offer greater variety, especially through E-Wallets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the time of writing, no crypto payments are available at BetUK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Withdrawal at BetUK follows a number of straightforward steps which I have outlined for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After you request your withdrawal the amount will still be visible on the withdrawal page until it has been sent from BetUK. This time frame can vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK have a fairly robust help section, with many FAQs. There is also a live chat feature, available 24\/7. While BetUK have an online presence on Twitter and Facebook, there is currently no customer support\/contact through these mediums. There is no option to contact the bookie via telephone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK take responsible gambling seriously. There are clear links to safer gambling on the website and app. Here you can find tools, including Deposit Limits, Loss Limits, Session Limits, Wagering Limits, Reality Check, Time-Out and Self-Exclusion. There is also an advice on controlling your gambling, parental controls to protect minors and a self-assessment to help you recognise if your gambling is becoming a problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n BetUK\u2019s customer service staff are trained to recognise signs of problem gambling and addiction and are available to listen and support you in keeping in control of your gambling. There are also links to outside agencies and organisations who can provide you with support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Sports Betting Markets at BetUK: depth and quality<\/th><\/tr><\/thead> BetUK have a broad sportsbook, which also offers depth across a range of sports and leagues in the more popular sports. Football and horse racing and Tennis are all covered particularly well. Football, for example, has huge depth, with bets available for some of the more obscure leagues around the world, as well as popular markets such as the Premier League. They offer a large range of markets from the result of games, to player props (number of shots, cards, goals, assists). As well these hugely popular sports, punters who want to bet on sports with smaller followings such as chess, handball and lacrosse have their needs catered for, along with the specials markets for TV and politics.
