Sports & Betting Markets

Customers at 888Sport can bet on over 30 different sports ranging from football and horse racing to even chess and trotting. It’s unlikely that you’ll not find the sport you’re looking for at 888Sport.

Below is a selection of sports available to bet on at 888Sport.

There is no shortage of available markets either with some high-profile football matches having well over 100. Customers can bet on anything from the first goalscorer to whether or not a penalty will be awarded or if an individual player will receive a red or yellow card during the match.

Horse Racing

As well as offering new customers a generous sign-up offer, customers can also take advantage of a number of horse racing offers at 888Sport. Offers include free bets for backing a winner, Best Odds Guaranteed, Extra Places and more. You can also watch all UK racing live as well, as other races taking place around the world, via the 888Sport live streaming service.

Bet Builder

888Sport allow customers to build their own bet through the ‘Bet Builder’ feature. With Bet Builder, you’re able to combine markets within the same sporting event to create your own unique multiple. Bet Builder applies to both pre-match and in-play bets giving you enormous flexibility on your bets.

For example, if you wanted to bet on Arsenal to win, Aubameyang to score first, the match to have over 11.5 corners, Özil to receive a yellow card and for there to be over 10.5 fouls, you could add these selections using Bet Builder and you would instantly receive odds for them to come in. Bet Builder differed from standard accumulators as it allows you to combine markets which usually wouldn’t be possible.

888Sport often run Bet Builder promotions from which you can receive a free bet for placing a bet builder on a specific event. These are worth looking out for and will be displayed on the promotion page of the 888Sport website when they become available.

In-Play Betting

All in-play events which are available to bet on at 888Sport can be found by clicking on the ‘LIVE NOW’ tab in the sidebar. All in-play events are grouped by sport making it easy to find the in-play event you are looking for.

While there is a reasonable number of in-play markets, we would say that there are probably more at some other top bookmakers. However, the vast majority of users will find the selection more than sufficient. 

Like many bookmakers, 888Sport display stats for each in-play event. These are generally excellent on 888Sport and show a lot more detail than with other bookmakers. For example, you’ll not only be able to view stats such as the number of shots on target, the number of cards, corners and throw-ins, you’ll also be able to view the current form of each team and their past results against other opposition. 

Live Streaming

Customers at 888Sport can watch a range of sporting events live directly through their accounts. Live events for football, basketball and tennis are all available to stream for free by simply clicking on the TV icon next to any eligible in-play event.

Horse racing streams are also available from every one of the UK & Ireland’s 85 racecourses. To view these races, you must place a £1 win or 50p each-way bet on the race you wish to watch. For customers whose accounts are in Euros, the minimum bets are €2 win or € 1 each way.

All steams can be watched either via desktop, mobile or tablet and the quality is generally very good providing you have a reasonable internet connection.

Customer Service

Customer support at 888Sport is excellent and is available via email, telephone and live chat in multiple languages. There is also a comprehensive help section which contains answers to the most frequently asked questions. All FAQ’s are grouped into categories such as ‘Bonus & Promotions’, ‘Deposits’, ‘My Account, ‘Technical Issues’ and more to make it easy to find what you’re looking for.

Upon testing, we received an email reply within 3 hours from the 888Sport support team and were connected to an agent via live chat within under a minute who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. 

888Sport App

The 888Sport App is available for both iOS and Android devices and available to download for free from the app stores. User reviews of the app aren’t the best to say the least with many comments regarding the app being slow and unresponsive. 888Sport have made updates to the app following these comments and we found no cause for concern upon testing the app.

The 888Sport app is user-friendly and easy to navigate between sports and the various available markets. You can also access features such as cash out and live streaming through the app. However, if you want to play casino games which are featured on 888Casino, you will have to download a separate app to access them.

The Website

The 888Sport website features the brands bold orange colours against a dark grey background which some will like more than others. However, despite the striking colours, it’s not too harsh on the eyes and is generally very tidy. Navigation between sports is done via the list of sports in the sidebar and all current 888Sport promotions and offers can be seen via the banners on the homepage. 

Navigation around the site is generally very easy but we did find the site to be slower than expected. Although pages don’t load so slow that it would cause many issues, it can be a slight inconvenience at times and would be more of a problem to those with a poor internet connection.

888Sport offer customers a Cash Out option which allows you to end your bet early before it has settled. Cash out is available both pre-match and in-play, as well as on both single and multiple bets. If you choose to cashout your bet early, your bet will be settled at that point and the cashed out amount will be instantly added to your balance. Unfortunately, partial cash out is not a feature 888Sport offer currently and their standard cash out option is not available on bets placed using free bets.

Online Casino

888Casino is how it all began for the company behind 888 back in 1997 and is what propelled them to being one of the biggest online gaming brands in the world. The online casino is host to hundreds of games from providers such as Playtech, NextGen, Dragonfish, NetEnt and more 888Casino holds licences from various countries such as Gibraltar, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Spain, USA and Denmark and accepts players from all around the world. They also provide a range of live casino games ranging from blackjack to roulette, baccarat, oker and a number of game shows such as Deal or No Deal and Dreamcatcher.

The 888Casino welcome offer is one of the most recognised bonuses available. New players can receive £88 free play with no deposit required. It’s a great chance to try out 888Casino without having to deposit any of your own money. This is separate from the 888Sport free bet that you can claim as a new customer in the sportsbook.

Banking

888Sport provide customers with a range of deposit and withdrawal options. Players can deposit using standard debit and credit cards or choose to use a variety of e-Wallet options such as PayPal, Neteller or Skrill. 

Withdrawal times are reasonable and can be seen in the table below.

Responsible Gambling

888Sport are committed to responsible gambling and as well as providing a lot of useful information and links to third-party websites which can help with gambling addiction, they provide customers with a number of in-account settings which can be of use. Below are some of the responsible gambling settings 888Sport provide to customers.

Self Limits – Set deposit limits at any time. This can either be done by contacting the 888Sport support team or by yourself through the cashier.

Reverse Withdrawal Preferences – Customers are able to turn reverse withdrawals on and off at any time by accessing the settings screen on the menu tab in the top right corner of the screen.

Game Time Reminder & Autoplay Limits – Users can set reminders for specific game sessions so that they can keep track and limit the time they spend playing casino games. They can also set the maximum number of rounds which can be played in any one session.

Self-Exclusion & ‘Take a Break’ – Customers can opt to exclude themselves from 888Sport for specific lengths of time such as a set number of days, weeks or months. During this time, the user won’t be able to place bets.

Summary

Overall, 888Sport is a good choice of bookmaker. They are a reputable brand that has been around since betting sites first launched online so have a lot of experience in the industry. We especially like the welcome offer at 888Sport and the no deposit offer at 888Casino which are both very generous. We would like to see the 888Sport website improved slightly, especially in terms of speed as there can be some lagging at times.
