All reviewsReview of the bookmaker BetVictor from Legalbet
BetVictor, one of the original online betting pioneers, has been around since 1946. The company has suffered a couple of re-brands in the past, but they decided to stay with the BetVictor name back in 2012. BetVictor was the first online bookmaker that has sent their headquarters off-shore, meaning they have been located in Gibraltar since 2000.
BetVictor is now a well-established brand in the UK and also across the world, which offers both sports betting and casino services to its customers. BetVictor is very popular amongst the Irish football bettors due to the quality of their odds and the range of their betting markets.
Odds - Average
We calculated the margin for BetVictor by analyzing the odds they offer and placed them into one of the following three categories:
From 1% to 5%: Good value
Over 5% to 7%: Average value
Over 7% to 10%: Poor value
Football
We analysed the odds for the match result outcomes and also the over/under 2.5 goals markets for several different football leagues. Getting the average results using this method, we were able to obtain the margins for each league and the overall betting margin for the bookmaker.
BetVictor has an overall margin of 5.65% for football and falls in the average value category. In the first section with Premier League and Championship, the margin is at 4.92%. The second section with Spanish La Liga and Italian Seria A, the margin is at 5.9%. Finally, taking the English Football League One, Polish Ekstraklasa and Russian Premier League into account, the margin is at 6.13%.
Range of Sports and Markets - Good
Being such a popular bookmaker, BetVictor has a portfolio of over 30 different sports, including some obscure ones such as politics or entertainment specials. From the Irish punter point of view, there is a lot to bet on at BetVictor and here we can mention horse racing events, Gaelic football, Hurling and also plenty of markets for the Irish and Northern Irish football leagues.
Football betting
Football is definitely the absolute leader in terms of betting, not only at BetVictor but with most of the online bookmakers. Casual punters can place a bet on the most popular leagues, but also on many lower leagues from across the world. BetVictor also offers some special features when it comes to football betting and here we want to mention Bet Builder and the Specials section where customers can wager on Transfer Specials, Manager Specials, Player Specials, Team Specials or England Specials. In addition, BetVictor holds one of the best Enhanced Odds offers which can be found in the Boosts section. As for the betting markets, there are over 90 pre-match markets available for most of the fixtures and it has to be said that wasn’t just for the elite European leagues, but also for lower divisions.
Horse racing
As you might be aware, horse racing is very popular in Ireland and the good news is that BetVictor has a huge racing selection available. The horse racing coverage is impressive as it contains all UK and Irish racing and also international races from the USA, Australia and Japan. Live Streaming is also available for most of the races, but the customers need to place a €1 qualifying bet in order to access the stream. Punters can place a bet on several horse racing betting markets, including Quinella, Exacta, Trifecta, Quadrella, First Four or the classic Win/Place bet.
You can also try the Betfinder feature which allows you to search for a horse based on several criteria like Distance Winners, Beaten Favourite Last Race, Timeform Star Rating, etc.
BetVictor also offers Best Odds Guaranteed to its customers. This means that if you take an early price for a race and the SP (Starting Price) is bigger than the initial odds, then BetVictor will pay you at the best price. This applies to all UK & Irish horse racing bets on the day of the race. Terms and Conditions apply.
In-Play Betting - Good
Live Betting / In-play Betting is available on most of the sports, except horse racing of course. Football is definitely the most popular sport for in-play betting and the range of betting markets is pretty impressive. We have tested BetVictor on a usual day and have easily found over 50 active betting markets during a live football game. Each live football match comes with an excellent animation graphic where the customer can watch the flow of the game, including the eventual incidents that are happening during the match.
Overall, the live betting interface is very easy to use and allows you to click between live events by a pop-out menu located at the top of the page. Customers can also enjoy their favourite sports and horse races through a live streaming service. Furthermore, the Cash Out feature can be used for both pre-match and in-play bets.
