How do you decide where to bet?
Deciding where to bet can be a challenge, we only recommend the best UK bookmakers on this site and it is all from personal experience. We dive deep when we look at choosing a bookmaker to use and some of the key factors are:-
- Customer Service – Dedicated customer support is very important.
- Reputation – Some bookmakers have an awful reputation for voiding bets or not paying out, best to avoid these ones.
- Odds – Using a bookmaker with good odds is very important so in the long run you extract value fro myour bets. Our betting guides explain this in detail.
- Withdrawals – Fast and easy withdrawals are important, you do not want to be waiting weeks for your money!
- Markets covered – Ensuring that the bookmaker covers the sports and markets you want to bet on is a no brainer. No point depositing your hard earned money and finding out the bookie does not cover horse racing!
- Deposit methods – There are many ways to deposit to a online bookmaker, make sure the way you want to deposit is covered.
- Licensed – Must be licensed in the UK.
- Promotions – Most bookmakers will have bonus bets available when you sign up. These can help start building your betting balance. Also you can take advantage of ongoing bonuses.
How do you open a betting account?
It may seem like a daunting process to open a new account and input your details, however the bookies have made it a very easy and simple process. We have put together a great guide on opening a betting account which will help with the basics.
Once you have opened your betting account you will need to set up the preferences to help you get the most out of your account. Also having a handy odds conversion table bookmarked is always a good idea.
Should you follow betting tips?
We dont advocate betting tipsters, do your own research is the best policy. Anyone can set themselves up as a betting tipster and take money. But think about it, if you could actually tip winners, would you pass that info on?
