BetNow Sportsbook Review

Massive Deposit Bonuses

We mentioned that BetNow.eu has a simplistic theme overall, and this is true of its bonuses as well.

Many of the best sports betting sites pack out their offers page in an attempt to attract new players. This is great, but it can also feel clogged and confusing. Too much of a good thing, as they say.

At BetNow, there’s a crisp, clean emphasis on deposit bonuses.

At BetNow, there’s a crisp, clean emphasis on deposit bonuses. The waters aren’t muddied by confusing bonuses where you have to jump through hoops. Instead, you can log in, get ready to make a deposit, and be reasonably certain that there’s a reload bonus waiting for you.

These deposit bonuses are large, often exceeding the 100% mark, and wagering requirements are extremely reasonable. At the time of our BetNow review, we claimed a big deposit bonus with just 7x wagering – and that was for existing players, not new ones.

Terms and conditions apply, 18+.

Safe and Licensed Sportsbook

We already know that BetNow is a safe and secure site, having thoroughly researched it and played there ourselves. But we also wanted objective data to prove this – starting with a gambling license.

Technically, online sportsbooks don’t need a gambling license, particularly if they’re based offshore. But it’s a strong sign of trust to players, because it shows that the company and website have been inspected and approved by a trusted third party.

BetNow holds a current gambling license from Anjouan, or the Union of Comoros. If you’ve not heard of it, that’s understandable; its population is under 300,000, and it’s pretty new to the gambling scene. But we’ve noticed more and more US betting sites applying for an Anjouan license, and it’s quickly becoming the norm.

If you look in the footer of the official BetNow website, you’ll see a section on responsible gambling. This includes ways that you can get help if you feel your gambling is getting out of control, and includes links to third-party help sites such as GamCare. Hopefully, this isn’t something that will ever be a problem for you – but simply knowing that BetNow are doing what they can to keep players safe is another plus.

Finally, we were able to deposit and withdraw at BetNow with no issues. We also claimed multiple bonuses, including the welcome bonus and a subsequent deposit bonus, and it was all straightforward.

Simple Sports Betting

If you’ve checked out any of our other sportsbook reviews, you’ll know that most of them hit you with a huge offer and an upcoming match as soon as you get to the betting area. And that’s why BetNow.eu surprised us so much.

Click on ‘Sportsbook’ from the top menu to bring up a list of betting options. As we mentioned earlier in our BetNow review, there are no banners or flashy images. It’s all business.

A simple white backdrop and very basic fonts make it super-easy to spot what you’re after. On the left-hand side, you have a no-nonsense list of sports, with a strong emphasis on US sports such as the NFL, NBA and MLB betting.

There are hundreds (if not thousands) or markets for all major events, and the odds are consistently competitive.

The layout is simple, but the markets are detailed. There are hundreds (if not thousands) or markets for all major events, and the odds are consistently competitive.

Easy Access on Mobile

There’s a whole section dedicated to live betting, which you can access from the top menu. You’ll need to be signed up and logged in to access the latest odds, and one of the best ways to do this is from your mobile.

In the words of BetNow themselves, “there aren’t that many changes between mobile and online betting”. You just have to hop onto the standard website through your mobile browser and you’ll get all the same markets and offers as you do on desktop.

Instant Crypto Withdrawals

The world’s your oyster when it comes to payments at BetNow, as you can choose between traditional payment methods like Visa and American Express or go down the modern route and deposit using crypto.

For obvious reasons, we’re massive fans of Bitcoin-friendly betting sites like BetNow. It gives you way more privacy and you can access your winnings in minutes, rather than hours or days. At BetNow, you can use BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC, or USDC. We also saw AltCoins listed in the payment methods, and DOGE is mentioned specifically.

If you’re new to crypto, they’ve got that covered too. In the footer of the site, you’ll see a link to a ‘Crypto Tutorial’, which gives you a step-by-step guide on how to buy and deposit coins.

Crypto has the lowest minimum deposit at $10, while Visa, Mastercard and American Express are $20. Person2Person transfers are higher at $50. When it comes to cashing out, crypto gives you a massive ceiling of up to $100,000.

Try Your Hand at Poker

For our BetNow sportsbook review, we didn’t really branch out to the other sections of the website, as they aren’t relevant. But we still noticed the site has not only casino games, but also poker.

It’s rare to find US-facing gambling sites which have player-to-player poker, but BetNow does. The guarantees are fairly modest, often at just a few hundred dollars, but it’s an excellent option to have if you’re a fan of Hold’em or Omaha.

Our Verdict

In a world where every sportsbook seems to be screaming at customers to place a wager, BetNow does the opposite – which is ironic, given the name.

BetNow takes a uniquely simplistic approach to every aspect of betting, from the layout of its markets to the straightforward bonuses and everything in between. If you’re a no-nonsense type of player, you’ll love it. And, if you do want to give it a go, don’t forget to claim the massive welcome bonus.
