Unibet

Unibet, a Malta-based, Scandinavian-owned betting site, is one of the world’s leading betting sites. Their range of apps, and speciality in live betting, give them an edge against their competitors. They offer betting markets ranging from sports, to entertainment, to political events… and usually have an app to facilitate each market.

What about Unibet’s software?

Unibet are unique in their app offerings. Their website is fully optimised for smartphones and tablets, as well as the usual desktops. The Unibet Sports betting app is generally considered one of the best, and is available on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Android. The app offers over 40,000 live streamed events across the year, and gives access to a wide array of both pre-match and live odds. There are also settings to allow customers to set up push notifications for their favourite betting sports.

Alongside the Unibet Sport app, Unibet also offer a range of apps for the casino, live casino, poker, and slot game betting markets- although unfortunately, not bingo.

The Unibet Casino app has a clear, customer-friendly interface, which is easy to navigate. Bets can be filtered by preferred categories, allowing the betting experience to be nicely streamlined. There are 350 betting opportunities offered through the Unibet Casino app.

Unibet Live Casino has a separate app which works hard to offer an immersive experience to customers betting from home. Live games with real dealers in Roulette, Baccarat, Blackjack and Texas Hold’em Poker are all available to bet on.

The Unibet Poker app offers access to the same beginner guides that the website does, making it user-friendly for new and experienced players alike. Unfortunately, the poker app is designed for tablets rather than smartphones, making it a bit cluttered on smaller screens.

How do Unibet’s betting odds compare?

The odds offered by Unibet aren’t particularly competitive against other big name betting sites. However, their range of betting markets, particularly for small leagues, makes them a good choice for customers wishing to bet on slightly more obscure events.

What markets can I bet on?

Unibet offer a range of sports markets to bet on, as well as entertainment and political events. Their main markets include;

• American Football
• Basketball
• Bingo
• Cricket
• Football
• Greyhound Racing
• Horse Racing
• Ice Hockey
• Poker
• Rugby (League and Union)
• Tennis

However, they also offer odds on smaller sports such as darts, beach volley, chess or sumo. Unibet Bingo is heralded as one of Europe’s largest platforms. It’s easy to use and has an extensive beginners’ guide to playing bingo. Various bingo games are available, in formats of 75 or 90 balls, as well as monster themed games.

Their TV and novelty markets aren’t as expansive as other betting sites, but they do offer odds on numerous options ranging from Nobel Peace Prize winners to the next James Bond.

Unibet’s football odds allow players to bet on everything from the Champions’ League to International Youth Friendly matches. There are options to bet on possession, goal-shots or scores, transfers, management, and more. Betting on ice hockey offers similar availability. Unibet offers bets on large leagues such as the NHL, to smaller leagues such as the Polish League. Although there aren’t as many options as the football market, the options for ice hockey (and other sports) are extensive.

Unibet’s live betting and live streaming options

Live betting is how Unibet stands out from their competitors. Unibet TV is a live streaming service that offers access to a huge number of sports and matches. Live betting on tennis is particularly enjoyable with Unibet, due to their extensive range of matches available. The set-up of the website allows customers to live bet on the same page as the streamed match.  In order to access Unibet TV, customers must either have placed a bet in the last day, or have money in their online account.

Unibet Live Casino and Poker

Customers wishing to bet on casino games are well catered for, with two options. The usual casino games such as Blackjack, Craps, and Roulette are offered through a well designed, easily navigable menu. However, it’s Unibet’s Live Casino that makes them stand out as a betting site- offering real-time matches, played with real dealers, which players can live bet on.

Poker is offered in two forms- online and downloadable play. For new poker players, Unibet offers a comprehensive webpage with videos that explain how to get started playing Unibet Poker. For those who just want to jump in and play, their quick-seat cash lobby randomly seats players with no fuss. Customers who want to fully immerse themselves in the game also have options to pick their own avatar and build their wins in story-driven games.

Unibet Open, a live poker tournament, has been running since 2007 and is now playable across most of Europe. The main poker matches are accompanied by smaller attractions, which can range from various casino games, to live betting events, to invite-only parties. The entry fee to Unibet Open is approximately £1000.

Betting promotions and offers

Unibet have a range of generous offers for new players, which makes them a lucrative betting site to sign-up with. When betting on sports, new customers are given bonus money up to the value of £30. While in the Unibet casino, winning first bets up to £200 are given a bonus payout of 100% as well as free attempts at their slot game.

Unibet Poker has an attractive offer for new players who are actively betting; their ‘play-through’ bonus credits customers up to £200. The longer a customer is active for, the more they may be gifted. For all poker players, Unibet also offer a free £10 credit, whether a customer deposits £100 or £1.

It is to be noted though, their offers are subject to change at short notice, so it is always worth reading the site’s terms and conditions before signing-up.
