Betano

Bettors in Germany can claim the €100 sign-up bonus when they register with Betano for the first time.

When you successfully verify your account with IDNow or Sofort you will receive the first part of the bonus - €20 in Free Bets within 24 hours.

If you deposit between €10 and €80 you will also get matched Free Bets up to €80.

Betano has quite the list of passive bonuses for existing customers and one of my favourites is the brand new "xGoals" or "Expected Goals", which is powered by Opta and works on any live match.

We've seen this before in a collaboration between the Bundesliga and AWS, where similarly, a computer looked at the positions of the players and their playstyle and calculated their chances of scoring the next goal.

Here is a list of a few of the better existing player bonuses worth paying attention to:

1. Missions
   Missions is a pretty cool feature of Betano, where you get a notification at the bottom of your screen while you're browsing the site, telling you that there is a new mission available. These missions are basically tasks that you have to complete to receive free bets. Usually you would have to bet on a few matches at some random minimum odds to unlock your free bets.
   
   The first mission that I had to complete was to place an ACCA bet worth €25 with at least two selections and at minimum odds of 1.60 per selection. Once my bets settled I received €10 in Free Bets for any sport I wanted - fantastic if you ask me!
2. Betano Master
   This promo has been runnning since 2021, and is coming to an end on May 31st 2023, so if you want to give it a try, now is the time!
   
   All you have to do is predict the outcome of a match once per week and it costs you nothing. If you correctly guess the first goalscorer and the exact match result, you can win up to €2500 in free bets (unless someone else also guessed it, as then you'll have to split the prizes).
   
   You can also win €20000 cash if you guess the outcomes of 6 games, but in my experience it's easier said than done, as I've also managed to correctly guess 2 games so far.
3. "X, Y or Z Goals ahead, you've just won!"
   This ongoing promotion is more of an incentive to bet on teams who like to focus on offence and have a score-as-many-goals-as-possible mentality. In a nutshell, if your football team leads by 6 goals, your outright bet will win, or if your ice hockey team is 3 goals ahead your bet is once again automatically successful.
   
   The only catch is that the qualifying leagues are a bit limiting and I can't think of the last time whenI saw an eligible match with a 6-goal lead.
   
   There are many versions of these, so make sure to check them out and to look for the qualifying leagues first.
4. Bore Draw Refund
   This bonus is for those of us who hate wasting money on uneventful matches. If the game you punt on results in a 0-0, your stake will be refunded.

Betano doesn't have the most extensive sports selection on the market by any of todays' standards, but it is still comprehensive enough for most bettors.

These are the 20 currently available sports on Betano:

• Football
• Basketball
• Tennis
• Formula 1
• Ice Hockey
• Darts

• Winter Sports
• Snooker

• Golf
• Moto GP
• Motor Sport
• Chess
• Olympic Games

Betano is not a bookmaker you want to simply glance over. Since its launch in 2018, the bookie has improved a lot and today it is rubbing shoulders with some of the other industry leaders, such as bet365 or Betway.

There are things that could be improved, just like with most things in life, but Betano remains a solid choice for any bettor, experienced or not, and it is certainly a bookie I would recommend you try at least once.

The way I like to put it - if you want to see and feel quality, you have to try Betano.
