Website review – Design and layouts

The website can’t be viewed by those outside selected European countries, so it’s difficult for curious players to explore it. The design is not that user-friendly nor is it as slick as its competitors’ site. However, it’s good enough. You may have trouble navigating around it as some features are disorganised, but you can get by especially if you visit the site often and get used to their layout.

Sports bettings

888Sport may be younger than other big bookmakers, but it has successfully established its name and deserves to rank along with them. They have an extensive number of markets including Australian rules, American football, boxing, basketball, cycling, boxing, darts, cricket, football, golf, GAA, horse racing, greyhounds, motorsport, ice hockey, Olympic sports, rugby, tennis, UFC, and more. What’s more, is that they also offer individual markets.

The sports markets offered by 888sport have depth in them, and they offer them at good odds. They give an excellent betting margin which is good news to punters who are looking for less than 4% betting margins. Still, if they were to compete with other bookmakers in terms of odds, they might be having trouble.

There’s really not a lot of things you can complain about their markets. Paired with heavy advertising, it’s not surprising that they have built a good reputation.

In-Play

The 888sport in-play section does not have that wow factor like other bookmakers’ in-play features have. However, it does come with a clear and clean layout. It’s easy on the eyes and can be used conveniently. You can view the on-going action of different sports without any trouble. They also feature clear presentations of the current market odds and the number of markets available.

To access the in-play feature, you only have to click the Live Betting tab which you can find on the left side of the page. Use the interface to click different events that you like to bet on, and you’ll see the in-depth odds for each.

888sport in-play service runs in several live markets including big tennis matches and top soccer matches. Once you click on a specific event, you will be given a text guide and graphics about the game flow. There will also be statistics to help you in making an original bet.

Live stream option

You can access 888sport livestreaming option for free if you are based in Ireland and the UK. This will be available in your desktop, tablet, or mobile, which is convenient. It will not cost you a penny so it’s a great deal.

888sport Horse racings

888sport uses iCard which is the hub for all horse racing-related info. They give great details of all the matches.

Visiting the horse racing market, you will see the racecards and the course information on the main screen. On its left are informative introductions of players and the course information. On the middle is the layout of the course. On a small section of the screen are the results of the previous matches. These are all very helpful.

Another good thing about 888sport horse racing market is that they have a lot of promotions and bonuses for it.

Cash-Out option

888Sport offers the cash out feature to its customers. With this service, you can close your bets earlier and take an instant profit or minimise loses. Not every bet is able to be cashed-out, but most of the events and markets are eligible for cash out.

Virtual sports bettings

Virtual sports betting offer of 888sport is good enough to compete with other big bookmakers. However, it’s not good enough to place no.1. This is understandable as they don’t put much promotion in their virtual sports betting market. If you enjoy virtuals, then 888sports might not be the place for you.

888sport mobile

888sports have made several changes to their sportsbook layout through the years. It’s clear that they are trying to clarify and organise their site. One of these changes is making their site more mobile-friendly.

The 888sport mobile app allows Android and IOS users to place acca, singles, and multiple bets, use in-play features, stream live events, and see the latest match results.

The mobile version of 888sport is not that different from the website. However, its app works better than the site itself. Why? Because the site features these big boxes – an indication that it is not much to offer.

However, in the app, these boxes are minimized to fit the small screen. There’s still a lot to improve in this area.

Affiliate program

The affiliate program of 888sports is part of the Uffiliates affiliate network set by 888 Holdings. Those who are part of the program can earn a commission by referring visitors to 888sports.com.
