With a pink and white ‘V sign’ as its logo, Vbet is a brand that likes to approach betting a little differently. When looking at things such as the website structure and the type of offers they run, Vbet does stand out from the competition. Their original approach to betting is one that I quickly noticed when visiting Vbet for the first time to undertake this Vbet review.

Pros and Cons

Who Is Vbet Best For?

Vbet suits players who want choice when betting as there are so many events and markets covered. It is also a great option for people who enjoy both sports betting and casino games, as Vbet offers both to a high standard.

The absence of mobile apps means Vbet is less ideal for players who do most of their betting via their smartphone. It is also not the best choice for in-play gamblers due to the absence of live streaming and detailed match stats.

Vbet Sports Betting Coverage

With 40,000+ pre-match events covered each month, there is never a shortage of something to bet on at Vbet. Not only do Vbet UK cover a lot of events within a sport though, they provide odds for a wide range of sports too. Their full list includes 40 different sports plus several of the top esports games on top of this. They are particularly strong when it comes to horse and greyhound racing, which is why they have a dedicated racing page on the top menu.

With coverage so broad, Vbet ranks highly in this area when compared to rival bookmakers. Rarely will you find sites that cover so many sports and fixtures.

Betting Markets, Odds and Margins

Betting markets are typically numerous and varied at Vbet sports. The exact number of markets differs by sport and event but when compared to other bookmakers, Vbet stands up well. This means that for most sporting events, certainly among the more popular sports, there is excellent market choice available.

You tend to get good value across these markets too as Vbet do not operate with a huge house edge/overround. If you look at their margin across sporting events, it tends to be fairly consistent, between 5% and 8%. That gives us sports betting punters a decent chance of winning and is slightly better than many UK bookies.

Vbet Live Betting

Vbet do not let their standards slip when heading into live betting. Here they provide odds for 30,000+ live matches each month, which is an impressive total.

Organising so many fixtures can be tricky but Vbet finds a way to present them in an uncluttered and user-friendly fashion.

Across the top menu Vbet UK customers can flick between various layout options such as event view or multi-view (desktop only). They can also filter events in time or alphabetical order.

Personally, I found the entire in-play page extremely easy to navigate and place bets. I only wish there had been more live stats for each match as the selection was limited for most sports.

Top Betting Features

Here is some information on various betting features and their availability at Vbet.

• Bet builder – Vbet’s bet builder function allows customers to mix and match markets from within the same fixture, to create a one-game multi leg bet. It is a quality feature that is widely available among football matches but it is not too common elsewhere. You can find it for some basketball and ice hockey games but not the likes of tennis. You can search exclusively for games that offer a bet builder by clicking the option on the main pre-event page.
• Cash out – Cash-out fans should note that any betting market accompanied by a dollar symbol is eligible for cash out at Vbet sports. If your bet features only these markets, you will have the option to cash it out both pre-game and in-play. For an additional layer of control, Vbet also supports a partial cash out, rather than just a full cash out.
• Live streaming – Vbet does not currently offer live streaming of in-play events.

How to place a bet at Vbet

Placing a bet at Vbet is easy and follows a very standard process.

1. Use the menu options to find the sport and competition you wish to bet on.
2. Click on a fixture or market within the competition to load all betting options.
3. Select the odds of the market you wish to bet on. Doing this will add it to your betslip.
4. If you want to place a multiple bet, repeat steps 1-3.
5. On your betslip, enter the desired stake in the relevant bet-type box (select ‘multiples’ for all options).
6. Confirm your bet using the green button below.

Overall, this is a simple and familiar process and one that allowed me to enjoy fast and hassle-free betting.

Vbet Compared to Other Bookmakers

There is a huge amount of competition in the UK betting market but Vbet are stronger than most options. Compared to your average brand, Vbet have more betting possibilities, faster customer support and better promotions.

They offer less of a complete package than some top names though due to the absence of live streaming and mobile apps.

Vbet Casino – Top Games and Features

To accompany its large sportsbook, Vbet UK provides customers with a similarly large casino. Consisting of more than 35 game providers, the choice of titles is excellent. You can find many big developers among the list of names present too, meaning both quantity and quality is available. Slots are the most widely available game type, with hundreds upon hundreds of different options. You also have special types of slots such as Megaways, Drops and Wins, and Jackpots.

Outside of slots, users can access a great selection of table games – mainly versions of blackjack and roulette but not exclusively. There is also a strong selection of lottery-style games, scratchcards, plus other ‘miscellaneous’ games on the ‘More’ page.

Moving onto live tables, and again Vbet supplies customers with real variety and quality. High-definition tables from the likes of Evolution, Pragmatic Play, and CreedRoomz ensure there is non-stop entertainment day and night. As well as many variations of blackjack and roulette, players can also try baccarat, hold’em, sic bo, and stud poker.

For players into their gaming, be aware that Vbet runs a special casino welcome bonus that features a 50 free spins.

Mobile Gambling Options – Is There a Vbet App?

Vbet has a mobile app for other regions but not yet for customers in the UK. This means you will not find an official Vbet app in the UK Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Be aware of imitation apps as these can appear when a big brand has no official application.

That said, mobile customers can still place bets and play games via the Vbet mobile site. Compatible across mobile browsers, it is very simple to find and place bets. The games section is just as well-stocked as it is on the desktop site too. Personally, I found it to be one of the easiest mobile betting sites I have used.

Registration Process and Account Verification

To create a new account at Vbet, follow our simple instructions below.

1. On the Vbet homepage, click ‘Join’ to load the three-part registration form.
2. Enter an account username/email and password, your name and your email address.
3. Then, input your gender, date of birth, home address, occupation and phone number.
4. At this stage, you must also specify your daily, weekly and monthly deposit limits.
5. On the last step, select your marketing communication preferences and confirm you agree with the site’s terms and conditions. Once complete click ‘Join’.

For most people, this will be all they need to do. A minority of players must, however, provide verification documents. If this is the case, Vbet will notify you of this.

Vbet Welcome Bonus Bundle – £10 in Free Bets + £10 at Casino + 20 Free Spins

Rather than having to decide between a casino or sports welcome bonus, at Vbet they give you two in one. To claim this unique package (£10 free bet, £10 casino bonus, and 20 free spins) new customers need to make a first bet worth at least £10. The minimum qualifying odds for this initial bet is 2/5 (1.4) per selection and all sports are eligible except horse racing and greyhound racing.

I really like the variety of this welcome offer as very few sites give you three separate bonuses. It’s good value too as you are effectively gaining £22 in rewards (the free spins are worth £0.10 each) for just a £10 bet.

Payment Options – Deposits and Withdrawals

At Vbet UK, the only supported currency is GBP and this applies to all deposits and withdrawals. There is, however, more choice when it comes to payment methods. Vbet accepts a range of popular options including debit cards, PayPal, and e-wallets.

For withdrawals, customers will typically receive the funds in their selected account within 72 hours of the request. It is not unusual to receive funds on the same day though. Just remember that players, where possible, need to withdraw to the same account that made the initial deposit.

There are no fees charged by Vbet when depositing or withdrawing funds, regardless of the payment method. However, a debit card is still my favorite method as it is quick, easy, secure, and does not involve a third party.

How Helpful is Vbet Customer Support?

In my experiences, I found Vbet support to be extremely fast. I tended to raise issues via live chat as not only are responses immediate but it is open 24/7. Live chat is one of three ways of getting support at Vbet. Customers can also send an email to support@vbet.co.uk (include your username and account ID) or call +44 (0)203 582 4005 between 5:00 and 22:00. This is a regular number and one that is typically included in inclusive call packages.

As for the quality of support, I found this was a little mixed. Most of the time I would get correct information but not always, as staff would sometimes misunderstand my question.

Security and Licensing

The UK-facing operation of Vbet is run by SCGO Limited, a company registered in Malta. Their UK Gambling Commission account number is 44662 and they have five active licences, which cover all the various betting services they offer. They also hold customer funds separately from company accounts, meaning they have earned ‘medium protection’ status.

Vbet keep data in an encrypted, password-protected database, safely behind state-of-the-art firewall software (SSL Version TLS 1.2 with 256-bit encryption).

Should you find yourself having a dispute with Vbet they cannot resolve, IBAS is Vbet’s Alternative Dispute Resolution provider.

Vbet Responsible Gambling Features

Responsible Gambling is something Vbet takes seriously. Even during registration players must input daily, weekly and monthly deposit limits. Players can decrease these limits at any time but raising them has a 24-hour cooling-off period. There is also the option of setting up a daily/weekly/monthly bet limit on bets at the Vbet sportsbook and/or casino.

To help reduce time, rather than spending, players can set up reality check notifications which tell you how long you have been playing. For any player wishing to take a short break (one day to one month), the time out feature enables this. For longer breaks or permanent withdrawal, there is the option of self-excluding yourself.

As well as these features, Vbet also has a dedicated page on Responsible Gambling which lists helpful support organisations.

User Experience and Feedback

Vbet attracts the same type of negative feedback you will find for virtually any gambling website. Complaints typically relate to problems with withdrawals, verification or account closures. As a high proportion of the reviews are negative, it can be a little off-putting. You should always remember though that Vbet do not ask their customers to leave feedback as standard. Those that do, therefore, are typically the small minority who have run into a problem.

We believe it is therefore better to trust the good reputation Vbet have in the industry. Moreover, most Vbet customers have a smooth, trouble-free experience and there is evidence of this in some of the more positive reviews. People most often praise the speed of withdrawals and customer support.

History and Background of Vbet

Vbet (originally Vivaro) was the creation of Vigen and Vahe Badalyan back in 2003. Three years after setting up the company they went live with their website, offering betting to customers in Armenia. In the following years, the pair began setting up physical stores in the country and had more than 300 by 2009.

It was in 2014 when Vbet really began to expand as they acquired a Curacao gambling licence. A year later they also picked up a Malta Gambling Authority licence. This saw them move into 12 European nations within the next three years. A big move into France followed soon after, thanks to acquiring a highly sought after French licence.

Today, Vbet serves over 120 countries and has more than 10 regional betting licences, making it a truly global operation.

Our Verdict and Rating – Why You Should Bet at Vbet

I will admit that Vbet is not yet a complete package. It still lacks some important features which are not hard to find elsewhere. That said, I would still argue that Vbet is a brand well worth trying out. It has some real redeeming qualities such as its user-friendly website, impressive selection of sports and markets, good odds, top-quality casino and refreshing selection of promos. My final Vbet rating is 4.3 out of 5.
