A Quick Guide to NetBet Sports

How this great site manages to stay under the radar for most people is slightly baffling! Offering an easy to navigate interface, a huge range of markets and probably the most helpful and friendly customer support in the industry, NetBet have a lot going for them.

Bonus Offers and Promotions at NetBet

The first thing to mention with NetBet is the welcome offer, when you click on our link to sign up, you will receive a £10 free bet when you bet £5 on Bet Builder. What we like about this offer is that the wagering requirement is only X1, we have seen so many sites offering fantastic deals only then to find the wagering requirements are set at 5,10 and even 20 times your initial deposit so this is very reasonable. The bonus is available once per week.

Other Promotions

You will find that any top online betting site rotates the promotions that they have on offer. We love when new and exciting promotions come out, especially when they offer boosts to something we would probably have bet on anyway.

Soccer Challenge – We love a challenge here and when that challenge is based on football, even better! The idea is simplicity itself, the person who wins the most on football bets won a trip to the Euros, this was a prize fund worth £6,000.

Chase the Dream – This is an almost identical promotion to the Soccer Challenge but instead of being based on Premier League bets, this one was based on who made the most money by betting on Champions League games. The prize? Well this was a beauty, the winner jumped on a private jet to see the Champions League final that saw Real Madrid beat Atlético Madrid on penalties.

NetBet 1 Million Game – I’m not sure you can buy a private jet with a million pounds but it would certainly mean you would be avoiding economy class for a while! This was the prize on offer with the NetBet 1 Million Game, this promotion was based on Euro 2016 but don’t be surprised if this promotion is repeated next season

Money Back if there’s a goal in the last five minutes – I don’t know if we just happen to be the unluckiest gamblers in the world but if we had a £1 for every time a goal was scored late on to destroy a bet, well we wouldn’t need to be visiting betting sites! NetBet will give you 50% cashback on matches when a goal scored in the last five minutes which affects the result. Yes, we know it’s not a million pounds but still…

Live Betting with NetBet

NetBet sports live betting actionLive betting, or in-play betting as it perhaps more commonly known, is one of the most popular features of an online sports betting site. It combines the excitement of constantly changing odds with giving you the ability to judge yourself how well (or poor) a team is playing and if you are good enough, take advantage.

It wasn’t always like this! Before the days of online betting, you had to physically visit a bookmakers and the “book” was closed when an event started. This meant you only had form and past performances to judge how a team would perform. Today, you can watch 10 minutes of a game to see who is looking the liveliest and bet accordingly.

The live offering at NetBet is great, when you click on the in-play button the screen changes to show you all the events that are happening at the moment. The different events are shown as big buttons so it is really easy to select what you want, even on the smaller screens of a mobile. It’s bright, simple to navigate and excellent for making both quick and multiple selections.

Mobile fun with NetBet’s mobile app

We mentioned earlier in this review about how in the past you had to visit a bookie to place a bet, with the introduction of mobile betting you can place a bet at any time and indeed any place you desire. You are out shopping with the Mrs but want to place a bet? No problem! A couple of taps and your bets are done.

Rapid Fire – Minute Markets – This feature is unique to NetBet and is really fun to use. Using the same format as the in-play, the upcoming football matches are shown on screen as large icons. Again, like the in-play this makes it incredibly easy to make selections whilst on the move, perfect for that last minute bet whilst on a crowded train.

If this wasn’t enough to convince you to try the NetBet app, would £10 Free Bet convince you to try it? Well that’s what NetBet are offering you when you use the app for the first time! Sounds like a win/win for all involved.

Payment Methods for NetBet

The minimum deposit amount is a reasonable £10 and NetBet accept a wide range of payment methods such as Mastercard, Visa, Maestro, Skrill, giropay, Euteller, QIWI, Entropay and Astropay among others.

The maximum you can deposit varies quite significantly, Visa and Mastercard for example are capped at £900, if you are a high roller then Skrill at £4,000 is a good choice. If that’s not good enough then you’ll be pleased to know that a bank transfer has no limitations on how much you can deposit.

A friend in need – Support at NetBet

The support options at NetBet are what you would expect from a leading online sportsbook, what I really like is the set out of the FAQ’s and ways to contact them, unlike other companies they don’t force you to go through the FAQ’s first.

Contact methods are email (via online form), live chat and telephone. It’s a little bit surprising that the telephone number is not a Freephone one, however, most of us have included minutes on our phones so I doubt that will cause many issues.

I have contacted NetBet via telephone a few times and cannot fault either the response time or the quality of the information given to me. Live chat is always my preferred method to contact a bookmaker and again, I have always received both a prompt reply and answers to any questions I posed.

NetBet are not a company everyone will have heard of, that doesn’t mean they are not good at what they do! Overall I have a very positive impression of NetBet and recommend you give them a try Bet on over 10,000 live events a month!
