Who Owns Betzone?

Betzone used to be operated by the well-known provider Playbook Gaming Limited, making it a sister site of bookies like NRG Bet and PricedUp. However, in addition to switching ownership from Betzone Ltd to Richmond Atlantic Ltd (UKGC licence number 65056), Betzone launched its new site with the provider Metric Gaming in January 2025.

In December 2025, Betzone announced its decision to close the site after four years of operating in the UK, citing a 'competitive market' as the main reason. It is no longer possible to join the site as a result, and existing customers can find details on how to withdraw funds on the site.

What Are Betzone's Pros and Cons?

First of all, major kudos to Betzone for leaving the Playbook Gaming umbrella and launching a revamped site. While still in its infancy, the sportsbook looks more appealing than the old one and there seems to be better market depth as well. Best odds guaranteed is also offered for horse racing, while it seems more promotions will be added in due course.

That being said, with the site being new, there are some things to work on. Like before, there is a lack of payment methods, with only debit cards accepted. Furthermore, there is no welcome offer at the time of writing, which will be a huge con for many. We have to assume that the latter will be added very soon.

Betzone Alternatives Reviewed

Below, we take a look at three suitable alternatives for Betzone, with a focus on bookies that at least share some similarities. Furthermore, these are bookies that we like a lot and recommend joining either way.

Fitzdares

Fitzdares

Sticking with 'smaller' betting sites for now, Fitzdares is a great option for UK punters. The brand has been around for a long time but the online product is still relatively fresh, hitting the market in 2018. Similarly to Betzone, the bookie obtained its own licence and moved away from FSB Technology for the platform.

Fitzdares horse racing

Horse racing is the main focus of the site, given the nature of the brand, and there is live streaming for most of the races. Best odds guaranteed is offered for plus members, which anyone can apply for, and this adds more of an exclusive feel. The betting app is also very good, while the withdrawal times are very fast.

NetBet logo new

NetBet

NetBet is another relatively new betting site, launching in 2017, and it has made great strides since. Ray Parlour is one of the brand ambassadors and the welcome offer has also helped quite a bit, with more and more punters signing up. Like Betzone, it is a bookie that covers everything from football to cricket, with no real niche.

netbet sportsbook

We had a bit of a snafu when we tested the bookie, resulting in the withdrawal being delayed. However, after everything was sorted with customer support (very helpful) it took just 6 hours for the money to arrive. We were also quite impressed with the sportsbook thanks to good market depth, low betting margins, many promotions and so on.
