Betway UK Review (2023)

Formed in 2006, Betway has been in the sportsbook industry for a long time. They offer a complete gambling product with Betway Sports, Betway Casino, and more.

Betway was also one of the first betting sites that launched a product focused on betting on e-sports, and it is still one of the best available.

If the name Betway sounds familiar, it’s likely due to their increased commitment to sponsorships. Notably, West Ham United, Premier League Darts and many others now displaying the brand.

Playing at Betway is intended to be fun and entertaining. Our commitment is to our customers – sharing the thrill with you. That means it’s our responsibility to give you a safe gambling environment, which is why we’re encouraging everyone to check out some safer gambling tips and advice here: https://www.begambleaware.org/safer-gambling/tips-for-gambling-safely/

Appearance and Navigation

At first glance, Betway offers a clean design and the colour scheme is clear and easy to read.

We have no complaints about the appearance of the site, in fact, it is up there as one of our favourites. The layout has stuck to the industry standard. In brief, the sports list is to the left with the main content being in the middle.

When navigating, Betway uses some handy shortcuts to make things a lot less painful.

We are big fans of their quick links and highlights section, as well as current promotions near the top. Advertising may bother some people but we like it. It saves time having to search for the current promotions ourselves.

As with all sites, you want it to be fast and easy to navigate. There is nothing more frustrating than a slow site or confusing information. Thankfully using Betway is very simple and doesn't have this as an issue.

Betway has a huge emphasis on its Esports platform. It is the only sport with its separate page and colouring.

Live Betting and Streaming

Live betting is a crucial part of any successful sportsbook. First of all, the layout of the live betting section is strong. It's easy to use, navigate and full of tons of games from plenty of different sports.

Betway's live markets have a great organisation as well. Allowing for quick bet selections. The infographic is large. But, it is full of key stats and up-to-date data coming from the game.

If you are lucky enough to be in countries that allow live streaming, it is an awesome feature to have. To find out if you can access a free live stream contact customer service.

Betway App Review

The Betway betting app and mobile site are both identical, and they both utilise quick links to great effect for fast bet building and general navigation.

Once you have an active account (deposit of more than £10) you can get free access to several live sports streams.

But, you will also need a positive account balance to be logged in. You can watch some different sports ranging from ice hockey to football.

You can find their customer service built into the app with a 24/7 live chat, free phone, and email all available.

It's much easier to access their customer service through their mobile platforms than through your desktop.

Overall, Betway has a fast and sleek mobile platform up there with the best betting apps. Both are user-friendly, have plenty of markets and events to choose from and live streaming is a great bonus.

Customer Service

Betway's customer service is available in several different languages.

• English
• German
• French
• Swedish

The main help page links are filled with FAQ and a live chat. But, customer support could improve. It doesn't make it too clear where the live chat is, and when you finally find it right at the bottom. It links you to the FAQ page.

If you are unable to solve your query through the FAQ's page, you can select the option to speak to a customer support operator.

Betway Conclusion

In conclusion, Betway is a great sports betting site with good odds, a wide range of markets, live streaming, and plenty of unique promotions to reward existing customers.
