RaceBets Overview

RaceBets is a Maltese bookmaker operated by RaceBets International Gaming Ltd., recorded with a 2005 setup year and a traffic rank of 382 with 8370 monthly visits. A Malta licence is listed, a European Union regulator, and availability spans 40 recorded countries.

RaceBets Betting Experience

The catalogue is a pure racing specialist, recording just three disciplines, greyhound racing, horse racing and trotting, and nothing else. Betting margins are not published, and live streaming is absent from the reviewed data.

The collected player score is 2.1 from 70 ratings, one of the larger samples in the ranking and a clearly below-average verdict. One welcome offer is documented, a 100 percent first-deposit bonus up to 50 Euro with the code WELCOME, a 5x bonus rollover, a 10 minimum deposit and 1.50 minimum odds, cashable.

Platform Design & Usability

The fourteen-method cashier is exceptionally deep for a racing book, running bank transfer, Dankort, eps, giropay, iDEAL, Maestro, MasterCard, Neteller, PayPal, paysafecard, Skrill, Sofort, Trustly and Visa. British Pound, Euro, Norwegian Krone and Swedish Krona are the recorded currencies. No cryptocurrencies are accepted.

Brand Positioning & Appeal

RaceBets suits dedicated racing punters who want horse, greyhound and trotting markets under a Malta licence with a fourteen-method cashier including PayPal. The specialist focus is the feature. The 2.1 player score from 70 ratings is a serious caution. Players should weigh the feedback sample and test payouts carefully before registering.

Outdated odds all the time. When trying to take these odds, they restrict your account. Mine got restricted in less than 24h.

Restricted within 48 hours. I did nothing but lose so can’t understand why? Not angry about losing at all, it was only £50 but find it alarming that they restricted me to 1p bets after winning 2, losing 5, which cleared my account. Deposited another £40 for a race and my bet got accepted, then got cancelled after 5 mins (not sure that’s legal), followed by a snotty email to say that I’ve been restricted. Fair enough, on your horse as they say.

An update on my earlier posting about this company. [I had opened an account deposited about ÂŁ100 changed my mind and Racebets failed despite my repeated requests over ten months to refund MY money.] Only after being contacted by the Gambling Commission did this company agree to refund my deposit.

Mugpunter GB
1/5

Restricted my account within 2 minutes of opening then made it nearly impossible to withdraw my money. Absolute joke of a company best avoided.

Customer service removed initial bonus restriction then, when bonus didn’t appear, was told that the person I spoke to shouldn’t have done that and they wouldn’t honour it.
