BetNow Sportsbook Review

Our BetNow Rating

• BetNow Sign up Process

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  When you decide to sign up for the BetNow sportsbook, you can expect a fairly simple process. You select the Join button, then you’ll be directed to a page where you enter personal information like your address, birth date, and your new account password. Once you select join now, you should be all set up and are ready to make your first deposit.

  Sing-up is quick, easy and intuitive. You should not need much time before you are ready to deposit and enjoy the BetNow sportsbook.

   

• BetNow Sportsbook Website

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow has a pretty standard website, it is competitive and comparable to other popular North American focused online sportsbooks. They do like to change up their logos and themes based on upcoming North American holidays like Halloween and Christmas, which can be fun but not really a groundbreaking change to make in terms of sportsbook functionality.

  Mobile Features

  Their site functions well on mobile devices and tablets, which is great if you plan to bet on the go- but we believe it’s far from the best mobile functionality.

  Desktop Interface

  On the desktop, we have a great experience, you can find everything you’ll need on the site fairly accessible and easy to locate. They have some great in-play betting options, and you can easily customize your experience by selecting which odds format you want to see, whether it’s American, decimal or fractional odds.

  No Ads

  Another bonus is that BetNow doesn’t spatter the pages with advertisements, cheapening their brand. Everything is kept clean and distraction-free.

  One thing to note is that when you log in to BetNow you start on a page that displays the sites bonuses and promotions. For those who want to get right to the sportsbook, this might feel like an unnecessary delay.

  Also, when you click on the sportsbook, the betting lines do not show right away, you need to select the sport you want to see. It would be helpful if users were led directly to the “Popular Games” section of the site once they signed in.

• BetNow Sportsbook Bonuses

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  Bonuses are the best part about signing up for an online sportsbook. BetNow has great welcome bonuses available for new members.

  BeNow has three current bonuses for new non-crypto customers. The site’s 150 percent match (BN150) has a maximum bonus of $225. A minimum deposit of $10 is required and there is a 15x rollover requirement.

  The 100 percent match (BN100) requires a minimum of $20, and has a maximum bonus of $500. There is a 12x rollover for this bonus.

  There is also a 50 percent match (BN50) that requires a $20 minimum deposit. That awards has a maximum bonus of $500, and has a 12x rollover.

  Crypto users get the best deal with a 200 percent match (CRYPTO 200). That bonus requires a $10 deposit, and is maxed out at $225 with a 15x rollover.

  New customers can also opt out of the bonus program.

  The number of promotions BetNow runs is impressive. However, one should be sure they can meet the rollover requirements before signing up.

• BetNow Sportsbook Promotions

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow has a great referral program that allows you to tell your friends about the sportsbook and earn bonuses when your friends register and make a deposit. When your friend registers and they get to the “How did you hear about us?” field, they enter your name or account number. You can earn up to $200 with the 20% cash bonus, it depends on how much your friend deposits.

  Contests and Promotions

  They also have plenty of seasonal promotions and contests depending on which sports are available to bet on and which holidays are coming up.

  One thing to look forward to on BetNow is the Vig Free November promotion, which runs for the last two weeks of that month. Bettors can bet special teasers on their favorite football team without vig or juice during that time. The promotion runs every year.

  With the NFL season underway, users should check out BetNow for several NFL related promotions and contests, including “King of the Hill.”

• BetNow Sportsbook Odds

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  When it comes to competitiveness of odds, BetNow offers betting lines that are similar to its top competitors.

  BetsNow does offer reduced juice on some of its wagering options. The site calls these “teaser bets.” According to the site, the juice is lowered on “special teasers to -110 or 1.91 (2 team 6.5 point special teasers and 2 team 7 point special teasers are not included). You must lay 11/10 minimum on all teasers and remember that ties push. A Minimum of $11 will be required on all teaser bets when wagering through the Internet and $50 through the call center.” BetNow also offers “Vegas teasers” for football and basketball that allow the suer to pick between three and eight teams.

  While BetNow odds are competitive, users should be aware that some sports are more competitive than others when it comes to the competition. For instance MMA betting, the favorites are in line with other sites, while the underdog odds are worse. As for football, the favorite odds are a little worse, while the underdog odds are slightly better.

  BetNow quickly responds to market changes and news, but the site does not update its odds as quickly as some of its bigger competitors. This can be a good or bad thing depending on how the odds are moving for a specific event.

  BetNow updates its overnight odds every few hours, which is helpful for bettors who wager at any time of the day or night. Odds for live betting are updated very quickly. The frequency of  those updates is helpful for those looking for real-time information.

  BetNow odds can be displayed as American odds, Fractional odds and Decimal odds.

   

• BetNow Sportsbook Live Betting

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow makes live betting easy for users. There is an “in play” option from the Sportsbook pulldown on the home page, which takes the user into the live betting section.

  The in play betting as it is called on BetNow shows users every event in every sport that is live on the left hand-side of the screen.

  All live betting options for an event open on the same page, which make viewing all in-play betting options very convenient.

  The live betting is updated often and quickly, which can result in a lag for users who are looking to place live bets, but this is not uncommon for online betting sites.

  BetNow has robust live betting options. One thing that could make the site’s live betting choices more attractive is if the site offered a user-customizable interface.

  BetNow does not provide the level of visualizations and live statistics as some of its competitors. However, bettors can also place wagers quickly and efficiently during events.

  There are no special promotions or bonuses for live betting, which could be a drawback for some users. As with most online sportsbooks, there are no event streaming options on the site.

  Live betting is easy, but as with most online sportsbooks, the volatile nature of the changing odds of in play betting can make things tricky. BetNow does alert the bettor as to changing odds before allowing them to confirm a bet. For those who bet the minimum amount this can cause some bets to be cancelled, which is something to keep in mind when wagering on live events. For those who bet higher than the minimum amount, live bets should go through quickly and easily.

  One thing I like about BetNow’s live betting is that when you select the quick bet option, there is a pop-up that shows you how much you have available to bet, the odds, and the max and min bet options for the wager you select.

• BetNow Sportsbook Banking Options

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow Withdrawal Review

  With multiple withdrawal methods available, BetNow’s got you covered.

  Here’s the rundown of the payout times and methods available at BetNow:

  • Bitcoin (min: $50, max: $3,000)
  • tether (min: $50, max: $2,000)
  • Litecoin (min: $50, max: $2,000)
  • Ethereum (min: $50, max: $1,000)
  • Check (min: $100, max: $3,000)
  • Bank wire (min: $100, max: $4,000)
  • Direct deposit (min: $100, max: $2,500)
  • Cash MG (min: $100, max: $299)

  If you opt for crypto withdrawal, you can receive your payout within 12 hours. The other options have longer payout timeframes:

  • Direct Deposit: Five business days
  • Check: Five business days
  • Bank Wire: Eight business days
  • Cash MG: 24-48 hours

  BetNow does charge fees for some payout options, so it’s not a bad idea to reach out to customer support before signing up to discuss what’s the best option for you.

  Keep in mind is that BetNow doesn’t process payouts over the weekend and may require you to have your ID or a utility bill on file for certain methods.

  The fact that BetNow doesn’t process withdrawals over the weekend, when most betting takes place, is a  bummer, but it should not be a dealbreaker.

  I was unable to process a payout because I had not hit the playthrough requirements for the site. If you have used BetNow and made a withdrawal and the fees or timing don’t align with what the site promises, please let us know.

   

• BetNow Sportsbook Mobile Betting

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow offers a mobile betting site that provides users a convenient and fully functional betting experience. Although it’s marketed as an app, it’s a separate mobile site accessed from any iOS or Android device.

  No download is required from the App Store or Google Play to use BetNow on a mobile device, making it easily accessible to anyone. The mobile site shares the same features as the desktop site, including sports betting, casino, and poker room betting lines, but with the added convenience of placing bets anywhere at any time.

  The mobile site is easy to use and navigate.

  I didn’t have any issues using the mobile site. It performed well, and had the same features as the desktop site.

• BetNow Sportsbook Casino

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow Casino Review

  The BetNow casino compares favorably to other online sportsbooks. The bigger online sportsbooks have Vegas-style casinos that allow you to bet on sports and casino games in the same spot.

  BetNow has 21 table games, 18 video poker options, over 250 slot games, and robust selection of live dealer games. 

  The table games offered include Blackjack, poker, baccarat, craps, roulette among others.

  The live dealer games include blackjack, roulette, baccarat, super6, slots, poker, bingo and keno. The blackjack tables have the highest limits in the live dealer section with limits starting at $10 and going up to $5,000.

  The site has improved its casino offerings dramatically over the years.

  One thing that is missing from the site is a dedicated poker page.

   

• BetNow Sportsbook Customer Support

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  Need a hand from BetNow? No sweat! BetNow has got you covered in both English and Spanish through live chat, email and phone support. You can find their contact info by clicking the chat icon at the bottom right corner of their website, whether you’re on your desktop or mobile device. 

  The help section could be better labeled, as this is the spot to contact the site in any form.

  I’ve reached out to BetNow’s customer service team before, and can say firsthand that they’re well-trained and reliable. Every time I contacted them through their toll-free phone number (1-844-823-8669), we were connected with attentive representatives who addressed our questions quickly and efficiently.

  While email support (support@betnow.eu) is available, I always recommend their phone support for the fastest and most direct assistance. Plus, it’s available 24/7, so you can call them whenever you need to!

  The live chat function is excellent and I saw no lag in getting a customer service rep online.

  

  BetNow is also active on Twitter and Instagram, but they may not be the best way to solve urgent issues since their response times can be a bit slow.

  And while they may not have an FAQ section per se, their blog is full of valuable information on all things betting-related. You can check BetNow’s blog by clicking on the link at the bottom right section of their homepage. The best part about their blog is that it’s not just for newbies – even experienced bettors can learn a thing or two from their articles and How-To guides.

  From our experience, we can confidently say that BetNow lives up to their tagline of ‘we make it simple.’ Their customer service is responsive, and they do go above and beyond to help their users.

  • Service Hours: 24/7
  • Phone: 1-844-U-BETNOW (1-844-823-8669)
  • Live Chat: Yes
  • Email: support@betnow.eu
  • Languages: EN, ES
  • FAQs: While they don’t have a FAQ section, they do have a blog that’s updated regularly. 
• BetNow Sports Betting Options Available

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow has a limited selection of options on its sportsbook, with nine different sports to select from.

  Inside many of those sports, there are additional betting options. For example, football includes: NFL, NCAA, CFL, and Aussie Rules. While soccer has even more options including Europe, Africa, Asia, FIFA, North America, South America and more. If there is a major sporting event taking place, BetNow is likely to have odds and betting options.

  • Basketball (NBA, NCAA, WNBA)
  • Football (NFL, NCAA, CFL, Aussie Rules)
  • Baseball (MLB, Japan, MLB AAA, South Korea, Taiwan)
  • Hockey (NHL)
  • Soccer (Premier League, La Liga, MLS, FIFA, Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Sweden)
  • Auto Racing (NASCAR)
  • Fighting (UFC, Boxing)
  • Tennis (ATP, WTA)
  • Esports 

  Bettors should be aware of the limited choices on BetNow, but this could appeal to users who restrict their betting to major events and leagues. 

  For my use, BetNow had everything I wanted to bet on, and its low minimum bet requirement makes the site attractive.

• BetNow Security

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, which ensures that sensitive data remains encrypted and protected. SSL encryption establishes a secure connection, making personal information safe. 

  BetNow also uses highly secured servers that use class-leading firewall and other comparable protection technologies to restrict any outsider’s access or manipulation to the platform.

  In addition, the sportsbook performs regular audits on its security to assess strengths and weaknesses.

  For its casino games, BetNow adheres to the industry’s best practices by utilizing a Random Number Generator (RNG) to ensure that the outcomes of their games are fair. 

  BetNow offers responsible gaming options for its users. The site provides links to support groups and offers a self-exclusion program, which it covers in detail on its website.

  Further, when users communicate with customer service they must provide their account PIN. No other site that I tested required this step.

• BetNow Maximum Bet

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  The minimum sportsbook bet on BetNow is $1.

  The maximum bets vary by sport and are lower than some of the bigger sportsbook competition.

  NFL maximums differ by day with side bet maximums ranging from $1,000 on Monday to $10,000 on game day. Totals range from $1,000 to $5,000. Parlays, Teasers, Reverses, and Round Robins range from $1,000 to $5,000 and Money Line bets are capped at $3,000 on game day. Money Line parlays have a max of $2,000 on game day.

  NBA and college basketball betting maximums range from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the type of bet.

  Boxing bets have a low maximum with title fights capped at $2,000 and non-title matchups at $1,000.

  On a positive note, BetNow allows users to request higher maximum bets.

  For those looking for high maximum bets, BetNow might not be a good fit.

  I’m not a high-stakes bettor, so BetNow is a good fit for me. For those who wager large amounts, it might be a good idea to get the maximum betting limits locked in and figured out before signing up with the site. Customer service should be able to help on this front.

• BetNow Accessibility

  ☆☆☆☆☆

  BetNow does not offer as many languages as some other sportsbooks. The only language option for the site is English, but there are options to translate the page. However, we are unsure of how well those options work.  

  I ran BetNow through an ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) checker. The results are as follows:

  • Clickables: 71
  • Titles: 75
  • Orientation: 33
  • Menus: 100
  • Graphics: 87
  • Forms: Neutral
  • Document: 75
  • Readability: 58
  • Carousels: Neutral
  • Tables: Neutral
  • General: 100

Our Sportsbook Reviewing Process

Twenty Recommendations

We don’t recommend all sports betting operators online; it’s not even close. We know over two hundred operators offering betting lines for US players. Still, only 20 sportsbooks have earned our recommendation during the decade we have been reviewing bookies.

What are they doing right?

Some sportsbooks fail even before we test them because their reputation among their existing players is so bad. Problems with payments? No thanks! Insane wagering rules for bonuses? No thanks! The customer support is M-I-A? No thanks!

Customer service is important

We only recommend sportsbooks that succeed in the above areas. We also love it when the customer support agents are friendly while helping us. Some will even give you a bonus if you ask them!

Only use trusted sportsbooks

We recommend you to only use the sportsbooks from our trusted list. While we can’t guarantee that you will win your bets, we can guarantee that you will see the profits in your hand if you win at these sportsbooks.
