Bonus and Promotions

As a new player, you get to enjoy a £20 free bet when you deposit and bet £10. So you can start with a little bit extra in your bankroll. Betsafe likes to run regular promotions. You’ll find all these under the promotions section of the homepage.
As a sportsbook, Betsafe is one of the most generous out there. Customers will get to enjoy some special deals. Betsafe offers generous bonuses for winning ‘Combi-bets’ – place an acca with four selections or more, and players get extra cash if the accumulator bet comes through. Betsafe will even refund losing acca bets if one selection lets you down. You can’t argue with the boosted winners and acca insurance!

Markets, Odds, Cashouts, Special Features

Betsafe has improved its sports coverage in recent years but the main focus still remains on the Scandinavian sports. There are around 30 sports to bet on at the moment. Football gets most of the attention, with every European and South American league covered. Betsafe doesn’t offer horse racing, which has to count against it, but if you’re not a fan of betting on horses then you’ll be in the right place.
The live play betting and cash out feature could do with a few improvements, but there are plenty of markets to bet on in live play.
Betsafe has odds that just fall short of the average. However, non-Scandinavian players can enjoy better odds on the Scandinavian sports markets.

Deposit / Withdrawal

You won’t be short of payment options when you play at Betsafe, you can deposit using VISA, ECMC Mastercard, Maestro, Speedcard Direct, EntroPay, Neteller, prepaid Paysafe card, ClickandBuy, bank wire, Citadel Instant Banking and Skrill (Moneybookers).

All payments and withdrawals are fully encrypted so you can make transactions with complete peace of mind. It is worth mentioning that you can only withdraw £2,000 per transaction.
