VBet Review

VBet may be new to the UK market, but it is a betting site that has been around for over a decade in other territories and that experience has been pivotal as the product is constantly refined and the brand continues to grow. The selection of betting markets and casino games is top-notch, and a partnership with the English Premier League club Arsenal only legitimises VBet further.

• Hundreds of available bets per football match
• Extensive Esports offering
• Great range of promotions

When VBet became Arsenal's official betting and gaming partner in 2019, this may have been the first that UK punters had heard of the BetConstruct-operated brand.

Gunners fans have since been treated to Arsenal-specific betting offers, as well as a series of content involving the current players as well as VBet ambassador Ray Parlour.

Unsurprisingly, football is a key part of the VBet sportsbook, with an impressive set of markets for each fixture - especially the top leagues.

Not only can you bet on Asian lines and other specific stat bets and combinations, but there are also special novelty markets plus enhanced odds.

At the top of the sidebar menu there is a 'boosted odds' section in which there are enhanced prices on events within the likes of football, darts, rugby league, MMA, Esports, and more.

While the boosted odds are a good addition to the site, the enhancements are not huge, and instead it just brings the odds more in line with the bookies that have a higher payout percentage which is much-needed as standard odds are not the highest across the board on VBet.

VBet betting offers include Best Odds Guaranteed on racing and football Acca Insurance.

Unfortunately, there are no international horse racing markets on the VBet site, with the focus instead just on the UK and Ireland.

There are standalone sections for Esports and live betting, and the lack of a mobile app means that the in-play wagering experience is better on desktop than mobile.

In the VBet Casino, there are many slot games courtesy of top providers like NetEnt, Play'n Go, Microgaming, and more.

The selection of table games, including those with live dealers, is more than adequate. Fans of video poker also have plenty of variations to pick from.

Customer support is available 24/7, and the wide range of payment methods, which includes PayPal, Skrill, and Neteller, is also a big positive for VBet.

• Limited horse racing

If horse racing is the one sport you bet the most on, then you should probably look elsewhere. Of course, the Best Odds Guaranteed offer is excellent for UK and Irish racing, but many bettors enjoy international action and this is not something available on VBet.

When you sign up with VBet you can claim a lucrative welcome bonus package worth up to £20 in free bets.

How to claim the VBet sign up offer:

1. Click 'Claim' above and sign up for a new VBet account.
2. Place your first bet with at least £10 stake at any odds
3. Receive a free £20 bet if your first qualifying bet loses.

VBet's selection of banking options is one of the best out there, particularly among the new UK betting sites.

You can easily deposit via debit card or through eWallets such as PayPal, Skrill, and Neteller. Other popular methods are also available, including ecoPayz, MuchBetter, and Trustly.

VBet Limits on Payments and Withdrawals

The minimum deposit amount is £5, and users can set their own maximum deposit limit when they first sign up with VBet.

A maximum of £100,000 per customer can be won across the major football leagues in any one day's business, with £25,000 the limit for smaller leagues.

£50,000 is the maximum limit for UK and Irish racing, while non-sport and specialty bets winnings are limited to £5,000 per day.

VBet Verification

When you first register with VBet, age verification checks will be performed using the information you provide.

Even if you pass, VBet may still request documents throughout the lifetime of your account in order to meet legal and regulatory requirements.

You may be required to send VBet:

• ID documents - passport, birth certificate, ID card, driving licence, etc
  
• Address documents - Utility bill, council tax bill, bank statement etc
• Source of Wealth

The VBet promotions can be seen by clicking on the gift box icon, and there is a great selection of various betting deals for existing customers to add to the welcome offers on display.

Acca Insurance is one of the best promotions, while there are also good horse racing deals such as the £5 free bet offer and Best Odds Guaranteed.

Money back specials are listed, including one that is specific to VBet's partners, Arsenal Football Club.

VBet Casino promotions are more limited, with the exception of the VBet Casino welcome offer.

VBet acquired a UK licence in 2016 and now offers over 30,000 live betting events every month, as well as a broad selection of casino games.

BetConstruct provide VBet with their award-winning iGaming software.

Online gaming company Vivaro Limited, whose headquarters are in Malta, are the operators behind the VBet site.

With live games managed by over 300 traders and 24/7 customer support, VBet provides betting availability to punters at all times.

With over 50 categories to bet on and more than 30,000 live betting events each month, the VBet sportsbook is extensive, to say the least.

There are separate sections for both pre-match and in-play betting, both of which are jam-packed with tons of markets across not just the typically popular British sports, but also the likes of poker, chess, sailing, plus politics and TV specials.

The payout percentage is not up there with some of the other top sports betting sites, but with so many boosted odds, there are some instances of VBet having the very best price on some markets.

VBet's Esports selection is perhaps the most unique and impressive aspect of the sportsbook.

Horse racing is a welcome inclusion, even if it is restricted to UK and Irish meetings.

On top of the breadth of available bets for each event, there are many outright markets also available, and you can place bets on the Super Bowl or NBA Championship winner before the season has even started.

VBet Football Betting

Football bettors should be more than happy with the number of matches and markets offered by VBet, and they have some good football betting promotions to boot.

Popular bet types such as goalscorer wagers, total goals, win both halves, and many more are all available, and while there is no VBet Bet Builder, there are still plenty of ready-made combinations such as a team to win and over 4.5 goals.

You can place Asian handicap bets, as well as total goals Asian.

Many of the VBet boosted odds offers are based around football, and can be found not just on the top leagues but also more obscure tournaments.

To survive as a main player in the UK market, betting sites must incorporate all of the modern features, most of which are centred around live betting.

VBet offer a great selection of in-play markets, and while the live streaming catalogue is limited, you can still follow the action through live graphics and stats.

VBet Live Betting

When you visit the VBet sportsbook, you can choose to only view live betting markets by selecting the 'In-Play' tab. 

You can then choose how you want to display the events and odds, and there is also a seven-day calendar which outlines which events will be available to bet on and in some cases watch through VBet live streaming.

In the in-play overview, you will often find not only football, tennis and basketball but also the likes of Esports, beach volleyball, and other niche sports.

The live betting experience on VBet is exemplary on desktop, and even on mobile despite the lack of an app.

VBet Cash Out

Many of the betting markets on VBet are eligible for cash out, which allows punters to close their bet early.

While cashing out may not be the best strategy in the long run, it can ease those nerves late on if your team is on the wrong end of an onslaught.

VBet Live Streaming

A small number of events are available on the VBet live streaming service. Look out for a TV icon on the in-play calendar.

For bettors who like to wager on the go, they can do so on the VBet mobile site which is fully optimised and suitable for smartphone usage.

It looks and behaves just like an app, with a narrow design and a bottom toolbar with icons for live betting, pre-match, games, live casino, and more.

VBet iPhone

There is no VBet iPhone app in the UK App Store, but by visiting the VBet site and clicking the arrow icon on Safari, you can choose to 'Add to Home Screen'.

This will then create a shortcut so that you can access the betting site quickly at any time, just like you would with an app.

VBet Android

In the absence of a VBet Android app, users are best served simply visiting the mobile site through a browser. All of the same betting markets and features are available on the mobile site, and it is a smooth and seamless user experience.

You can find VBet Casino games in three separate sections on the betting site, with the titles 'Games', 'Live Casino', and 'Casino.

In truth, there is not a great deal of difference between the Games and Casino sections on VBet. On either of them, you can find the same slot machines and table games, with popular titles from leading providers such as NetEnt, Microgaming, Thunderkick and more.

You can use the search tool to look for specific games, with many forms of video poker on tap.

VBet Live Casino

There is a great selection of live tables and games in the VBet Live Casino, with NetEnt, Evolution Gaming, Hollywood TV, and BetConstruct among the providers with live dealers.

Baccarat, poker, blackjack, and roulette are the main offerings, but it does not stop there.
