Promotions

Our review of EnergyBet found their Welcome Offer for UK customers is well worth checking out. Just for opening an account they offer a generous first deposit bonus. At the time of writing it was not as big as some of the more famous bookmakers, but as they say, “size isn’t everything!”

Terms and conditions apply. 18+.

Enhanced Odds & Acca Insurance

Every day you will find special ‘Energised Odds’ offered on a selected bet at EnergyBet. To find out what’s on offer on any particular day, just click the link on the main slider. If you take advantage of an enhanced odds bet, you simply place it at the normal odds, then Energy will top up your winnings to the equivalent of the enhanced odds. Because you can only see the ‘Energised Odds’ with one day’s notice, it pays to check back at least once every two days.

EnergyBet also run an Acca 4+ insurance offer for weekend football, offering a refund if one of your selections lets you down.

Website

EnergyBet has gone for a clear, modern design, with the same black, white and orange colours that are used at EnergyCasino. Interestingly, they ditched the run-of-the-mill three-column layout found on most bookmakers, and the result is a very easy-to-navigate site that is enjoyable to use, even if you spend quite a bit of time studying odds.

When you arrive at the bookmaker, you’ll normally see live events front and centre, which is great for catching that last-minute opportunity you may have forgotten about. Unlike so many online sports betting sites, there’s plenty of space and nothing is crowded or cramped.

You’ll find your bet slip on the right-hand side, and you can check out all the sports on offer by clicking ‘sports’ from the main navigation menu. Everything is very intuitive and exactly where you’d expect it to be.

The sports are presented as tabs with graphical icons, making them easy to browse. Clicking through markets is simple and easy, with odds clearly displayed, and the option to pull up more statistics for individual matches or events.

Another impressive feature our EnergyBet review team discovered was multiple language options. To improve accessibility and customer experience, EnergyBet is available in English, German and Polish.

EnergyBet have actually won an award for their customer service and if you ever contact them you’ll understand why.

Sports Markets & Odds

This is one area where EnergyBet shines. They offer an outstanding range of traditional sports for you to bet on. Or, if you prefer a more modern betting option, EnergyBet also provides industry leading choice in terms of esports. All of the world’s most popular esport action can be found at this site.

However, if you can’t find the perfect sports or esports bet, don’t worry, they also offer betting on politics and entertainment including movies and TV shows. One omission in the traditional sports list at EnergyBet is horse racing. Yep. This is a shock for such a great bookmaker – absolutely no real horse racing.

Note we said ‘real’, because EnergyBet does offer virtual horse racing. In their last major revamp, EnergyBet added a range of thrilling virtual sports including horse racing and football. Featuring cutting edge, life-like graphics and races every few minutes, virtual sports betting means you never have to wait for the perfect bet.

At the end of the day, bettors want a wide range of sports, and EnergyBet have definitely ticked that box. But, perhaps more important than the variety of events is the competitiveness of the odds and the depths of the markets.

In our research for this EnergyBet bookmaker review, we found odds to be excellent. We checked upcoming football matches and discovered that odds were regularly better than their competitors. There is also a strong number of markets for each game, with Asian handicap betting, total goals, halftime/full time, first scorer, specials and more.

Interestingly, EnergyBet’s esports odds also tend to be very competitive compared to other mainstream bookies. Most of EnergyBet’s books compile to 107-108%, with many rivals coming in at 110%+.

Mobile Betting

Luckily, because EnergyBet was only launched in 2016, it was designed right from the outset with mobile devices like smartphones in mind. This gives it a massive advantage over some of the bigger sports betting sites that have tried to shoehorn their offerings into subpar apps.

At EnergyBet you’ll find that everything loads and scrolls smoothly, menus are dynamic and optimised for mobile devices, and there’s simply no need for a ‘dedicated app.’ In fact, recently Google announced a clampdown on ‘betting apps’ saying that most were simply normal sites hurriedly squashed into apps and giving to advantage to users – it seems EnergyBet already understood this and were ahead of the curve!

Deposits, Withdrawals and Currencies

A wide spectrum of payment methods are covered by EnergyBet, giving UK bettors several ways to fund their accounts:

• Mastercard/Visa
• E-wallets: Neteller, Skrill, Skril 1-Tap
• Paysafecard
• Bank transfer

The minimum deposit amount is £10 for all payment methods, with the minimum withdrawal being £20. Customers get one free withdrawal per week – in the unlikely event you need to make more than one a week there is a small £5 fee. A big plus is there’s a huge £5,000 daily withdrawal limit, so you never need worry about big winnings getting trapped.

Usually e-wallet withdrawals take 1-12 hours, cards from 2-3 working days, and bank transfers up to 5 working days.

Customers of EnergyBet are spoilt for choice when it comes to picking a currency to use on their website. Currencies offered include:

• Canadian Dollars
• Euro
• Pounds Sterling
• Hungarian Forint
• Norwegian Krone
• Polish Zloty

SBO.net Verdict

Overall, our EnergyBet Sports review discovered this site has loads of great perks for users. It would be good to see them offer Cash Out and live streaming, and maybe they will in the not too distant future. But, on the whole, for a bookies that’s been going less than three years, they’ve managed to put together a very nice site. They have an impressive range of sports and esports, good odds, decent offers, and importantly, excellent support. Add to this their reputation for no hassle fast payouts and you can see why we strongly recommend them.
