The coverage of sporting and non-sporting events such as politics is excellent. Also, 888 sportsbook have betting platform that is very user-friendly.
888sport-website.png First, let's say a few words about 888 Holdings PLC. In 2005, they became part of the London Stock exchange, which gives its clients additional insurance about the reliability of the bookmaker, considering its activity is constantly monitored and regulated by UK's Gambling Commission and Gibraltar Gambling Division. 888 Sport provides a secure environment for conducting transactions and advocates that they are carried out responsibly. In fact, the group as a whole has received several prestigious gaming industry awards.

Bets are accepted on the outcome of individual matches and on the outcomes of entire tournaments. The most popular sports are horse racing and football. In football, bets are accepted on all English leagues but other national leagues are also covered nicely, especially the ones in the Europe. Bookmaker offers in-play betting on certain sports which add to the excitement when paired with live streaming feature. Regarding betting offer, there is a category of special bets that covers the outcome of popular television contests, including BBC Sports Personality, and the United Kingdom general election.

One of other nice features is the mobile betting app for iPhone and iPad, that is available for clients from Ireland, UK and few more countries. It's a great help for those who don't go anywhere without their smartphones.
One of the best features from 888sport is the live diary, as it shows details of upcoming events in the live section. Another novelty is the Icard, which in itself could be a stand-alone site from which you can watch horse racing live, keep up with results, and predict the outcomes. In addition, you will also find several features useful to bettors, which include live scores, statistics and sports news.

When you open an account, you can choose to view the site and the odds in the format most suited for you, be it decimal, fractional or the American one. Payout or betting margin is in the range of their competitors so you can expect the return of 95-96% in average.

Now let's go on promotions. They constantly offers great deals to all their customers and new players who would like to make the most of a smashing venue to wager on sports and claim a host of tempting deals and promotions. There are multitude ways to scoop yourself some free bet bonuses and lots of other perks. Using the name of the company, they invented very special promotion called "88th minute special", where if you bet on a certain game in a certain league, and you lost the bet in the last minute of the game, you receive £88 back.

Of course, to start betting you will have to fund your account. At 888sport players can use a large number of credit and debit cards to deposit funds. For example, Visa, MasterCard and Diners credit cards can be used internationally while Maestro can be used in the United Kingdom. Many electronic wallets are also available to players, many of these like Neteller, Skrill and PayPal can be used internationally. There are several local e-wallets that will be a great help to local players, for example, Abagoos is available in Hungary and iDEAL in the Netherlands. Local bank transfers and prepaid cards can also be used to deposit funds. Generally, the same options can be used for withdrawals. The processing times and transaction limits are given in the table below.

So far the site is presented in 11 languages, but considering the pace at which they're improving, chances are we will see many more languages on their site.

You can get help by chat, phone, fax and email, available 24/7 and they get back to you within 24 hours after you've submitted the email.

Other services offered
  • Casino - The winner of numerous awards and beside Cryptologic games, they finally offer Netent ones which we prefer, just as a majority of casino fans.
  • Poker - Some might argue that that the poker room doesn't have as many options as it should have, but it still gives you the popular games including Texas Hold'em, Omaha, Omaha hi/lo and 7 Card Stud. The Quick Seat feature will allow you to navigate among money tables, without wasting too much time or it could lead you to its beginner's section. Anyway, you can expect a lot of traffic on 888 poker network, but there are some complaints by experienced players that their exchange rates aren't the best and there is no rakeback. OK, they do offer rakeback, but only in the games with higher stakes.
  • Bingo - 888Ladies is a well-known name in the bingo community, powered by Dragonfish software, but honestly, we don't have any ladies at BettingSOS.com. None of us is playing bingo, in other words.
Affiliate program affiliates.888.com - If you decide to promote 888sport as an affiliate you can earn gross revenue of up to 30%, but you will have to send them at least 20 new players per calendar month. They do not carry over negative balance which is a big plus for sports affiliates.
