New Betting Sites 2019

New Betting Sites 2019

We are midway through 2019, but we are yet to see any new online betting sites worthy of being listed on BettingLounge.

It is likely new bookmakers are holding off as we are without a major tournament this year, for example, the Euros or the World Cup.

But, below are the three latest online sports bookies worthy of your time. They are fully licensed in the UK and offer a safe, fun and secure product for gambling.

	Bethard	5.0	Review

We’re very excited to see which new betting websites launch in 2019, and what kind of difference they can bring to the already saturated market.

In 2018, we saw the launch of innovative new online bookies like Bethard, MansionBet, and MoPlay.

However, we do not think this year will be similar to 2018, with many sites launching last year to take advantage of the 2018 World Cup.

New Bookmakers 2018

Below are three excellent new bookmakers that launched in 2018.

Logo	Name	Rating	Review
	VStarBet	4.2	Review
	Bethard	5.0	Review
	Mansionbet	4.5	Review
	MoPlay	4.5	Review

Bethard launched in May 2018 and has been a clear favourite to our visitors here at Bettinglounge. But that’s no surprise with the Swedish superstar Zlatan Ibrahimovic as their frontman.

Also, Bethard offers a fantastic product with high odds, low betting margins, and a wide range of markets.

However, their sign up offer is quite poor if we are completely honest.

New Betting Sites 2017

Three notable online sports betting sites that launched in 2017.

	Mobilebet	4	Review

FansBet is a new betting site that initially launched in June 2017, while SportNation started just two months later in August 2017.

Sports Betting Sites Launched in 2016

2016 was a year of the summer Olympics in Rio as well as the Euro 2016 in France which meant that some new operators joined the highly competitive UK sports betting market.

Among the bookies launched Leo Vegas stands out as one of the more successful launches together with Mr Green.

Recent Launch Dates of New Betting sites

Below is a list of the UK launch dates for the latest betting sites.

How do I Choose a New Bookmaker?

Welcome Offer- Start off by looking at their welcome offer. What kind of offer is it? How much is it worth?

Banking Options (Depositing and Withdrawing)- What payment methods can you use to deposit? Cards, Paypal, etc.

How long will it take to withdraw and is there an identity verification process (more on this later)

Odds and Markets- Does the betting site have good odds and is there the sports you want to bet on? How is their market range or is there just popular betting types?

Promotions and Rewards- Do the betting sites have ongoing promotions for existing customers or just the welcome offer? Is there a free bet club?

Customer Service- Is there a 24/7 customer service or is it severely limited? What different contact methods do they have available?

Live Betting and Streaming- Almost all bookies have a live betting section but check just to be sure. Is there a live streaming service available?

Mobile Betting- Is there a mobile app available to use? With smartphones dominating our everyday lives, almost all UK betting sites now have a mobile app.

Check out our full in-depth reviews for answers to all these questions!

New Betting Sites Licences and Regulation (UK)

If the new bookmaker is listed on this site, they will have a UK Licence and abide by all the UKGC regulations that make them a safe and accountable betting site.

But, if you come across a site that is not on our list, be sure to check for UK licences.

You can do this by checking the bottom of the website for a Gambling Commission link, or it should also be listed in their about us page.

Never sign up to new bookies that do not show a valid UK licence.

Software and Design

You will often find the latest software combined with a fresh and innovative design.

But, credible and trusted bookmakers also have the financial backing to offer the best service available.

To compete with the best, new bookmakers often have to be unique and innovative to incentivise new punters.

Secure Banking

Be sure to check if the betting site has your desired payment option before you check the rest of the site.

You could find the perfect betting site, but if it doesn’t accept your payment method, it will be of no use to you.

Most new bookies will offer a wide range of deposit and withdrawal methods, including cards, eWallets, PayPal, etc.

We list all the payment options available on each betting site in their individual reviews.

Odds, Sports, and Markets

New online bookies do not always offer complete products, and it is important to check if they offer the sports you want to bet on.

Also, how many markets do they offer and how do their odds compare to the industry standard?

For example, Bethard is a fantastic new betting site that launched in 2018. They are a great option for betting on football, tennis, American football, basketball and more.

But, they only recently introduced a horse racing section, which is pretty small for most punters.

However, if you want a good new football betting site, try out Bethard.

Bethard has a great football betting product with a wide range of leagues and markets while featuring in our football betting tips with the highest odds regularly.

New Betting Sites Offers and Promotions

Finally, new betting sites usually have great sign up offers (apart from Bethard) But, a large sign up offer does not necessarily mean it’s good.

Check out our betting offers guide explaining why, and how to choose the best sign up offers.

After you have found a worthwhile betting offer to suit your needs, be sure to check their offers and promotions for existing customers.

For example, Bethard has a small promotions page compared to the industry standard.

However, you will still get great value with Bethard due to their high odds.

Ultimately, it all depends on how you gamble for whether you will get more value from a big or small welcome offer.

Or whether you should opt for a betting site that has plenty of offers for existing customers, like free bet clubs, money back specials, odds boosts and more.

How to Open an Account on a New Bookmaker

1. Pick a betting site – We recommend Bethard
2. Enter your details and a depositing method
3. Deposit an amount of your choice but remember to meet the sites welcome offer T&Cs to take full advantage as a new customer
4. Now you are ready to start betting. Good Luck!

Identity Verification Process

As part of the UK gambling regulations, bookies are required to verify your identity.

As of Tuesday 7th May 2019, there have been changes to the Age and Identity verification rules for betting sites in the UK.

You must now verify your age and identity before being allowed to:

• Deposit money
• Bet with money or bonuses
• Access free to play games
• Be eligible for any bonuses

This is done to make sure you are over 18, whether you have self-excluded from gambling and to confirm your identity.

For most punters, this will be done automatically through the details you provide when you sign up.

They can look at databases that hold a range of information about people and match that information on your account.

However, if they do require more you can use these documents to verify your identity.

Simply take a photo and send it to the betting site in question.

• Proof of age/identity with photo (Passport or Driving licence)
• Proof of permanent residence address ( Any bills, mobile, internet, bank statements, utility bill)
• Bank card or other payment methods

Gambling Responsibly

We take great pride in promoting gambling in a safe and responsible manner here at BettingLounge.

We will only recommend new online bookmakers that have responsible gambling protocols in place on their site.

Check out our Responsible Gambling Guide for tips and advice for how to stay in control, and services offering free professional help!

• Self-assessment tests: We check to make sure the new bookmakers offer self-assessment tests to help you if you are at risk of developing a gambling problem.
• Deposit Limits: Almost all new betting sites offer deposit limits, and we recommend all punters set a limit and stick to a budget they can afford.
• Reality Checks: We check to make sure new bookmakers offer reality checks to monitor your time and money spend on a betting site.
• Self-exclusion: Again, all new betting sites in our list offer self-exclusion options if you want to take a break or suspend your account for 6 months, 1 year, 5 years or longer.
