Request a Bet at Sky Bet
How does the Request A Bet feature work at Sky Bet, and how do you use it? In our guide below, we answer these questions.
Sky Bet Request a Bet Explained
Many of the top online betting sites in the UK now put the power in the hands of their customers by allowing them to request a bet, or build one, with SkyBet among these sites. In the last few years, in fact, the bet-builder feature has skyrocketed in popularity and it is no surprise that most of the betting sites constantly are developing the feature.
With Sky Bet's bet builder, also known as Request A Bet or #RequestABet, punters have the chance to create their own unique wager. It can be frustrating if the bet you want to place is not available, with the standard markets coming up short, and this is what Request A Bet aims to solve. This can either be done directly on the site or via social media, which we will come on to.
Furthermore, the Request A Bet section at Sky Bet also displays bets that other punters have put together. It should be noted that on most betting sites, including Sky Bet, not all of the markets are available for the bet-builder feature. But as this type of betting is becoming increasingly popular, that is bound to change in the very near future.
How to Use Request a Bet With Sky Bet
There are two ways to Request A Bet with Sky Bet, with the easiest one being through the 'BuildABet' section of the website. You can follow our step-by-step guide on that process below:
-
Log in to your Sky Bet account
If you do not have an account at Sky Bet, simply head over to SkyBet.com and create one.
-
Head over to the Sky Bet Sportsbook
Pick the event that you would like to build a bet for and tap on the 'BuildABet' tab.
-
Add your picks to the bet slip
Once you feel comfortable with the bet you have put together, you need to add it to your bet slip to proceed. As always, make sure to think through your selections.
-
Enter the Desired Stake and Confirm the Bet
Once the bet has been added to the bet slip, you will be able to enter a stake and then confirm the bet. Good luck!
How to Request a Bet via Social Media
If you do not want to use the website, or if something is missing, you can also use the #RequestABet feature on X (formerly known as Twitter). Simply outline the bet you want, then add @SkyBet as well as the hashtag #RequestABet in the tweet. The Sky Bet trading team will now price up the bet, before adding it to the #RequestABet section of the website.
Of course, you will then have to log in to the website and actually place the bet, but the whole process is very smooth indeed.
