Bookmaker Review

Sky Bet Nigeria review

Share this article

Playing the part of the sports arm of the Sky range of websites, Sky Bet stands as one of the most important components of this wide-ranging service. As part of a greater whole, the aim of this website is to seat itself alongside its brothers and sisters, offering a complimentary but utterly different experience. Diversifying the sports and markets available on a level which few manage, in this Sky Bet review, we look at how successful this bookmaker is in its goals.

Like many other aspects of online gambling, sports betting can be home to some less than trustworthy operators. Luckily for us and for users of this service, Sky Bet is legitimate and it holds the right licenses to prove it.

Website review – Navigation and layouts

C:\Users\Сергей\Downloads\sky-bet-home.png

One of the many great features about the site is its clean layout. The moment you log into SkyBet, you are greeted with a mixture of cool blue and white colours. It’s easy on the eyes, as it does not contain too much bright colours. The contrast blends perfectly so that users will be able to read out information without stressing out their eyes.

The site is neatly organised into three sections. The first one, which you will see on the left-hand corner, is a menu which contains a list of pages that will help you quickly navigate around the site. It’s very convenient as you can find the page you want to go to in just a matter of seconds. In here, you can see the home button, promotions, bets, rules and help section. You will also see the most popular sports played by SkyBet’s customers and the site’s extensive list of plays that are conveniently listed in alphabetical order.

The second section of the page contains featured sports and in-plays. You can also check out the next race, updates and markets available. If you want to try something new besides betting on games, you can try betting on roulette or participate in virtual sports. If you’re looking for weekly or daily promotions, they are readily available on the top-centre of the website. Lastly, you can easily check your bet slip by looking at the right-hand section of the page. This section lists out your in-play bets, accumulators and selected upcoming races.

Overall, the design of the site is very straightforward, making it very convenient for customers to use. The format itself is perfectly designed to meet every punter’s needs and is very easy to understand, even for new customers.

Betting Markets and odds

Sky Bet have a massive scope that covers a huge amount of different sport markets, so there is something of interest to everyone.

The sports markets that they offer are:

As you can see, the list of sports available is very extensive. If an event is being broadcasted on their television service, it will have markets available on Sky Bet.

They also have a section on their website which showcase popular competition that would be taking place at the time such as the Premier League. This is an example of how good Sky Bet’s navigation is.

Sky Bet are renowned for their competitive odds. They run alongside competitively amongst the frontrunners of the betting industry in terms of odds so definitely can be trusted to maximise your profits.

They boast to beat the average bookmaker by 5% in sports betting, and probably more in football.

A great feature Sky Bet have in terms of competitive odds is price boost, a feature where you may add a little extra value on just about anything.

In Play Betting

In the past, betting used to be a strict affair dominated by bookies; putting players in a somewhat inferior position. Today, sports betting has advanced, but if there is one form of this activity that has advanced more than any other form, it would be in-play betting. This form of sports betting gives players the chance to place their bets on a sporting event even while the event is ongoing. The new kind of sports betting enthusiast is thrilled by this kind of sports betting, and with this in mind, sky bet included in-play betting in their service description. There are many other online sport betting services that are providing this service to their customers, but only a few have been successful. Skybet supports in-play betting, in fact, this kind of betting is rather prominent both on the Skybet website and Skybet mobile app.

First-time customers who log onto the site cannot help but notice the focus on in-play betting right on the home page. The site offers in-play betting on a large number of sporting markets, offering an equally large number of games for customers to bet on.

In-play bets at Skybet are what most sports bettors would want to engage. Customers find that they can make quick and easy bets on Skybet, and if a customer prefers to use their mobile phone or tablet to place the bet, the experience only gets better.

Sky Bet Live Streaming

With Sky Bet Bet & Watch all customers that place a bet on a race can watch live horse racing.

With Sky Bet Player you can watch more than 2400 live sports events from around the globe including football from Serie A, Bundesliga and Portugese Primeira Liga. Sky Bet player allows you to watch up to six live streamed events at the same time.

Virtual Sports Betting

Virtual Sports is the perfect option for customers who want to bet on a sport that is available around the clock. Compared to other methods of betting, betting on a virtual game enables you to see the game’s results at a faster rate. The fun and thrill experienced in traditional betting are also similar, but this feature can be often more convenient to use.

The virtual sports that are available on SkyBet are horse racing, football, greyhound racing and motorsports. Out of four, horse racing has the most extensive range and variation in contests. Similar methods apply when you are betting on virtual sports. All you have to do is pick out the game you want to play and place your bet.

Cash Out Function

One of the unique features of SkyBet is being able to cash out part of your winnings during an on-going game. The value depends on the time you decide to take out your share and will change depending on the probability of your bet winning. However, this feature is only available on selected sports.

Sky Bet Mobile

You can take Sky Bet with you while on the move thanks to their mobile betting apps for iOS & Android and their mobile website. With Sky Bet Tracker you can keep track of your bets, see real-time stats and cash out before the final whistle blows.

Sky Bet works great on your iPhone, you can choose to play via their mobile website or via their iOS-app. The app requires iOS 7.0 or later.

Sky Bet Android

Sky Bet works great on any Android mobile, you can bet either via their mobile site or via their Android app.

Sky Bet App

C:\Users\Сергей\Downloads\MB-LoggedOut-hero-small3-compressed.png

Sky Bet offer plenty of apps for both Android and iPhones. They offer a Sky Bet app for betting, Sky Vegas for their mobile casino, Sky Bingo Mobile, Sky Sports Mobile, Sky Sports news, Sky Sports Live Football Score Centre app and more.

To install the Sky Bet Android app, you have to Enable ‘Unknown sources’ (Settings > Security > Unknown > Sources), this is because Google Play is not permit gambling apps.

SkyBet’s Sign Up Bonus

Sky Bet have a great sign up bonus. Normally, in this section I would write a step by step guide on how to apply for the sign bonus of the relevant bookmaker.

With Sky Bet, we will not need to do this. Reason being, is SkyBet deposit £10 into your account on sign up. This happens without even needing to deposit! No catch.

There is also a sign up bonus for the SkyBet Club which is free to join. In this club, you are offered a free £5 bet when placing £25 worth of qualifying bets on odds of 2.00 or higher.

You are applicable for this every week! But once you miss a week you will be dropped from the club.

Whilst many people sign up to Skybet through their desktop, creating a Skybet account via your mobile device. The process is exactly the same, and you will still have the opportunity to choose your welcome offer.

Betting Limits

The minimum deposit into your account is £5. There is no stated maximum deposit. As for place staking, Skybet reserves this right for its punters. Maximum winning on a single bet varies according to the game. For instance, maximum earning for football is capped at £500,000 for English Leagues while that of boxing is capped at £250000. Skybet is a member and an advocate of several awareness programs against irresponsible gambling. At all time, they remind punters that gambling should be seen purely as a recreational activity. As such one should only place stakes with money they can afford to lose. Admittedly, Skybet has proven to be a hub for several amazing features for customers to enjoy but it still doesn’t have the influence and authority associated with the bigger firms as a result of the limitations it placed on itself. Of all the limitations, the biggest one is their obvious emphasis on English football and clients.

The Available Deposit And Withdraw Methods

C:\Users\Сергей\Downloads\rtaImage.jpg

Withdrawing funds at Skybet is an experience suited to the individuality of the specific customer. Skybet has an assurance of depositing funds to a client’s account within two to five business days. If they are withdrawing to an e-wallet (like PayPal and other electronic transfer methods), then the funds can be in their accounts within the same day they place their withdrawal request.

Customers can withdraw through their debit cards; a process that usually takes a total of 2 to 5 business working days. The withdrawal options are both online and mobile. Some specific UK and international debit cards, for instance, MasterCards and Visa cards, restrict the online betting service from depositing funds directly into a customer’s debit card. Sky bet usually informs their customers in case anything like this happens.

Customers can withdraw a minimum of £10, but Skybet does not restrict the maximum amount of money that can be withdrawn by a customer in a day. Both deposits and withdrawals can be made with the above-mentioned methods; debit cards, e-wallets, or use of other online and mobile money transfer methods.

Reliability

Skybet might not be the best online betting site but this takes nothing away from the quality service delivery they have been associated with right from inception. As a subsidiary of a media powerhouse with a good reputation and a licensed operator by the United Kingdom Gambling Commission and Alderney Gambling Control Commission, they can be trusted to act in the most professional manners at all time. In addition, they must have undergone a thorough examination and commit themselves to some basic rules before they are granted these operating licenses. As we would expect, Skybet ensures utmost protection of customers’ data by taking all the required security protocol.

Users’ financial data is protected by the latest digital encryption technology (SSL certified) and their servers are also given the strongest firewall protection against any data leak. At no time will Skybet illegally expose your data to any third party user for whatsoever reason. However, you are urged to keep your login credentials as confidential as possible as they shall not be held responsible for any unauthorized usage resulting from your carelessness.

Customer Support

C:\Users\Сергей\Downloads\hj.png

Being a major force in sports betting as they are, the need for a quality customer support system for Sky Bet is undeniable. Sky Bet is no slouch in this area, covering all three common areas to give users quick and reliable access to their systems.

This includes connections such as a direct phone number, which is available from 8 am to midnight every day of the week, and an online chat service available 24/7. On top of this is the email system, which is best reserved from non-urgent and more complicated requests.

Also of note here is the robust FAQ help system, as offered on their main page. Separated into sections which include basics, verification, banking queries, log in problems, sports rules, and user account, the information here is far wider ranging than what most bookmaker websites offer, and appears to be constantly updated with new information as necessary.
