Bet365’s unique Bet365ting system offers a different way to wager from traditional sportsbooks. Their strong odds combined with fun promotions make them a very appealing betting site.

Bet365 has established itself as one of the leading operators in Australia and is one of the most exciting brands available for India bettors thanks to their unique Bet365ting system.

Pros

• Innovative Points Betting feature
• Attractive promotions on major sports
• Most number of markets on major sports
• Excellent welcome bonus

Cons

• Not as many sports as others
• Bad blog

The Bet365ting aspect is totally unique to the sportsbook and Name A Bet is another feature that very few other legal betting sites in India offer.

The welcome bonus and the promotions available to bettors, especially No Juice Spreads, are particularly excellent and this overshadows the fact they have fewer sports than the likes of BetMGM.

Bet365 Welcome Bonus

Bet365 have a risk-free welcome bonus of up to $2,000 which is one of the best sign-up offers available and a higher amount than most other sportsbooks. It is available to all new bettors in every state that the sportsbook is licensed in.

Unlike most other major betting sites, there is a sign-up code to access the Bet365 bonus but it is automatically filled in when you register.

A free bet of up to $2,000 if your first bet loses is extremely generous by Bet365 and is more than other major betting sites in the India like BetMGM and DraftKings Sportsbook.

The bonus is delivered as a single Bet365 free bet but you do have the option to split it into two, three or four free bets in your account settings, each of equal value.

So if you fancied a bet on Aaron Judge to hit a home run at +250 but didn’t want to put all $2,000, you have the option to split your free bet and just put $500 on.

You then have three more $500 free bets to use on any markets within seven days.

Wagers made with free bets don’t include the initial stake in the returns, so winning bets will only return the profit and not the risk.

Bet365 Bonus T&Cs

There are some important Bet365 welcome bonus terms and conditions to be aware of before you register and use the offer.

The terms are similar to many other major sportsbooks in the India but you should particularly note that free bets will expire after seven days.

Key T&Cs

• Welcome bonus is only valid on your first bet
• If your bet settles as a loss, you’ll receive your stake back as a free bet up to $2,000
• You will not receive the bonus if your first bet is a winner, voided, or pushed
• Max bonus is $2,000 in free bets
• Bonus expires 7 days after receipt

Other Promotions

Bet365 offer some of the best promotions of any India betting site, frequently rewarding bettors with money back on losing same game parlays and occasionally offering boosted odds.

No Juice Spreads

The No Juice Spreads promo removes the vig from both sides of the spread in the first month of NFL games and makes each line +100. This is arguably one of the most attractive promotions in the India.

In a match between Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Rams, the Bills are -1.5 favorites on the spread. Normally, you’d see the Bills -1.5 at -110 odds and the Rams at +1.5 at -110 odds.

Bet365’s No Juice Spread promo means that those -110 odds are both +100 – removing the sportsbook margin on both sides and giving you more returns on successful bets.

Bet365 also boast their Karma Kommittee, which returns stakes as free bets on select wagers if they are considered to be a “bad beat”, such as a referee making a bad call. This promo is only available to customers in IL/IA/NJ/NY/PA/VA/WV and free bets are given at the discretion of Bet365.

Loyalty Program — Bet365 Rewards

Earn points on every Bet365 wager which can be redeemed for free bets.

• For fixed odds wagers, you earn 1 point for every $5 wagered.
• For parlay wagers, you earn 1 point for every $1 wagered.
• For Bet365ting wagers, you earn 1 point for every $1 won or lost.

The minimum you can exchange is 250 reward points, which will give you a $2.50 free bet. The maximum you can exchange is 100,000 points, which nets you a $1,000 free bet.

Bet365 Referral Program

The Bet365 referral program rewards bettors with a $100 free bet when someone they refer deposits $50.

It is worth noting that the referrer must have been a member of Bet365 for a minimum of 14 days and must have: a betting history with Bet365; a registered Colorado address; deposited and turned over a total of $1000 or more, and not hold a current negative balance.

These terms make the refer a friend system unfavorable for casual bettors and will not appeal to everyone.

Payment Methods at Bet365

Bet365 have a decent range of payment methods with both online and physical deposits covered. It is worth noting that only Illinois, Iowa and New Jersey bettors can fund their accounts at a physical sportsbook.

Aside from cash at cage, all deposit methods are available in all states and one of the best aspects about Bet365 is their low minimum deposit amounts.

You only have to deposit $5 at Bet365 to get up and running, which is perfect for new and more casual bettors who only want to place small wagers.

						ACH/eCheck
Min/max deposit	$5/-	$5/-	$5/$500	$5/$10,000	$1/-	$5/-
Min/max withdrawal	N/A	$5/-	N/A	$5/-	$50/$10,000	$5/-
Fees	None	None	None	None	None	None
Payout time	N/A	1-2 Days	N/A	2-5 Days	Up to 24 Hours	2-5 Days
Withdrawal method	No	Yes	No	Yes	Yes	Yes

Adding more methods like VIP Preferred and Play+ would be ideal as that would give more options to bettors and make Bet365 even stronger in this aspect.

How to Withdraw at Bet365

Bet365 offer four different withdrawal methods, each of which is available in all states where the sportsbook has a license.

Each method of withdrawal is listed below, including the processing time:

• PayPal: 1-2 days
• Online banking: 2-5 days
• Cash at Cage: Up to 24 hours
• ACH/eCheck: 2-5 days

PayPal is the standout method here due to its popularity and the fact that the money will be with you inside a couple of days.

Bet365 Mobile App

Bet365 have a mobile app for both iOS and Android, with easy links to them via the menu on the desktop website.

Apple users can download the Bet365 app via the App Store onto iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch, whilst the Android version is available on Google Play.

The Bet365 app is generally very good, providing bettors with a seamless experience that really makes it easy to wager with them.

Five buttons across the bottom take you to the sections you are most likely to want to visit, including live betting and the bet slip, although we did find that there was occasional freezing when trying to navigate the Bet365 app.

Bet365 Customer Support

Bet365 have comprehensive customer support, offering the trifecta of live chat, phone number, and email to provide you with all the options you need.

Our experience with support agents found them to be knowledgeable and quick to respond about both general sports betting queries and more specific account questions.

The Bet365 FAQ is also detailed and can often give you the answers that you need without having to contact agents directly.

Sports Available to Bet On

Bet365 specialize in NBA betting by their own admission, but that does not stop them from offering a decent list of sports for bettors.
