BetVictor Review

Whilst completing this BetVictor review, I was thinking that within the sports betting industry, you’ll find that bettors are spoiled with choice. There are plenty of bookmakers, though, that, unfortunately, leave a lot to be desired.  

For this reason, you often find yourself jumping ship hoping to fortuitously discover a bookie that offers something magical, be it the best value for money or just an all-around good experience. If you happen to find yourself feeling this way, then you are not alone. Thankfully, our Bet Victor review will be of interest.

As we prepare to start, let’s touch on what you’ll discover here as you read on. We'll be looking to answer questions like ‘who are Bet Victor’, ‘what do Bet Victor do differently?' and ‘what about them blows the competition out of the water?'. Everything you need to know, from the sports on offer to how you can withdraw your winnings, can be found in this in-depth Bet Victor review. Let’s go.

A brief history of Bet Victor

Bet Victor was originally established in 1946 by William Chandler. Chandler wasn't averse to gambling, given he owned a Greyhound Stadium. It wasn't until the late 90s when the bookie began to gain real prominence, though.

Victor Chandler, William's grandson, took charge of the business as it moved into its third generation. With new eyes and fresh ideas, Victor decided a change of approach was needed. He moved away from the old-school model of bookmaking; instead, he put emphasis on establishing a solid online presence to support the growing trend of remote betting.

Fast forward 20 odd years, and how is Bet Victor fairing today? Well, once again, they have a new honcho in place. Now it’s a long-time majority shareholder Michael Tabor. Thanks to a solid base and the steering hand of Tabor, Bet Victor has established itself as one of the best bookmakers and online casinos. This is particularly true of the UK market.

The original online plan for Bet Victor was intended to see them on their way to operating an All-in-One platform. This would see them run a host of different gambling forms, such as sportsbooks, casinos, poker and lotto, to name a few. Instead, they opted to discard some dead weight. This means they split their eggs between two baskets – as opposed to many. Their focus now is on the sportsbook and casino. It was a bold strategic decision but was executed perfectly and continues to prove a smart move; that is evident in their £1 billion revenue generation from a customer base of over 500,000 punters.

So, that's your background check. Let’s proceed with the next stage of our Bet Victor review.

Registration Process

Deposit and Withdrawal Options

In regards to deposits and withdrawals, there are a lot of methods you can choose from, some of which are MasterCard, PayPal, Neteller and Bank Transfer. Surprisingly, Bitcoin is also accepted, which is a very welcome option given the growth in that market. The minimum deposit, depending on the payment method used, ranges between £5 – £10, while maximum sits between £30,000 to £50,000. Again, those maximums depend on the payment you are using. Withdrawal times are also pretty decent with the majority processed in under 24 hours. Overall, the deposit and withdrawal methods on BetVictor are multifaceted, which is good for bettors; that is particularly true of those who use unconventional payment means.

BetVictor Welcome Offer

So, what offers do you unlock as a new customer? It's not a complicated process but it's also not as straight forward as the offering from most bookies. The reason for that is because BetVictor have a series of welcome offers to choose from; you'll only be able to use one though so choose carefully. At present, your sportsbook options come in three forms.

The first is a bet £5 get £30 in free bets, which comes in the shape of two £10 bets and a £10 bonus in the live casino. The second specifically looks at the horse racing markets and works in a similar manner. Instead of wagering £5 for £30 in freebies, you have to stake £10 but you do get a larger bonus of £40. This is spread as three £10 bets and a £10 casino bonus.

Your final option is to take a gamble on a specific bet. At the moment, that bet is Conor McGregor to beat Dustin Poirier by KO or TKO and, here's the perk, it's priced at a mammoth 50/1. The standard odds for this bet are 4/7. You are, however, limited to a £1 stake. Whatever welcome bonus you plump for, you should be pretty satisfied.

Sportsbook Promotions

As a punter on the lookout for a new bookie, the hook of strong promotions is one that catches its fair share of fish. If, however, you're hoping to find jaw-dropping, mouth-watering, irresistible bonuses on BetVictor, we might suggest you lower your expectations a bit. Their welcome offers are pretty strong but the day-to-day bonuses that reward customer loyalty are extremely lacking.

Pre-Event Offers

Your pre-match betting is where you’re opting to place your bet before an event kicks off or before the race begins – depending on your poison. Let’s take a look at football, to begin with.

So, with respect to the beautiful game, all the top European leagues are covered, as are plenty of competitions from other lesser-known countries and lower league divisions. How deep does Bet Victor go on this front? The answer is very well.

Featuring the likes of the Premier League, La Liga, and Serie A are all pretty bog-standard. However, dipping your toes into the waters of Algeria’s first division might test your footballing knowledge!

The markets themselves are tremendously rich, with a glut of options available to choose from. To give you a quick flavour, you can bet on goalscorer markets – including first, last and anytime scorers, cards, correct score, corner kicks, first/second half bets and, in a unique spin, VAR specials. The latter also proves how Bet Victor rolls with the times.

The market depth we speak of isn't limited to football. There is a wide variety of options in most other sports. One of the exceptions to this, though, is one of their dominant markets – horse racing.

Of course, you don’t expect to find the same options on a horse race as you would in football, but bookies such as William Hill will let you bet on races without favourites. With Bet Victor, you’ll be betting on a horse to win the race, with your only other option to bet each way. Whilst your betting options are potentially a little restricted here, the events covered are not with race days covered the whole world over.

Live Offers

Another area that is mammoth in the sports betting industry nowadays is in-play or live sports betting; Bet Victor have you covered here too. The first thing to note is that the in-play bets take pride of place on the site when you first log in or return to the homepage; this is important because the markets and prices move so quickly. Events are laid out by category – one of which is live streams meaning you can watch the action unfold – and show you the live score all in one place. Once you click into an event, what you see varies depending on the event.

The markets, as we’ve touched on, obviously differ. So do a few other things though and some of these are less obvious. Given football is one of Bet Victor’s major sports, a downside worth highlighting is the lack of live streaming. It's not critical to the success of a bookmaker but certainly brings something to the in-play market. You do, however, see a real-time, on-pitch animation of match stats that does lessen that pain. The lack of streaming isn’t something that impacts everything though because live streams are available on horse racing, greyhounds, e-sports amongst others.

Usability & Mobile Betting

The overall feel of a bookie's website, as well as that of their mobile apps, if any, is key to keeping customers. No one wants to deal with some clunky website with a workflow that wobbles and frustrates your betting experience.

Thankfully, BetVictor doesn't suffer from any of these issues. The intuitiveness and overall flow of their site are pretty much on point. Buttons are big and are placed in an orderly manner, thereby making navigation a breeze; a comprehensive list of your betting options is laid out in the left-hand menu whilst the more popular markets are displayed centrally with a horizontal ribbon to aid quick selections. 

Most importantly, despite the fluid animations used in various places, the website is surprisingly lightweight and fast, meaning you'll have no issues with bet slips timing out before you get your punt placed. The same level of design is carried over to the mobile app which is available on both Android & iOS platforms. Bets are easy to wager on all platforms and access to things such as form guides and real-time stats is a real perk.

Player Security

Safety is a concern for many bettors these days. They want be sure the bookmaker they are dealing with are answerable to the law. Providing their services across 150 countries, BetVictor is licensed in Europe by the UK Gambling Commission, as well as the Gibraltar Gambing Commission. These are big, credible authorities; therefore, if BetVictor do not comply with any of the conditions included in their license conditions, that aforementioned license may be revoked.

Where responsible gambling is concerned, Bet Victor do not shy away from the subject. They have a ‘Safer Gambling' section easily accessible in their left hand menu where you'll find a host of information and support. There are checklists you can tap into, links to third parties who can lend a helping hand and a huge amount of self-help tools. You can set yourself deposit limits through your account settings but things like time trackers and product restrictions can be activated also to ensure you bet smart.

Customer Support

Customer service can be of paramount importance when things take a turn for the worse. BetVictor don't offer a up a phone line, which can be frustrating, however, they do operate live chat, email and text message support alongside offering contact via their social media platforms. On the bright side, there is an option to get on call with the support team. You just have to do so by requesting a call via email. You will then be contacted with the number you input in your request form. On top of all those options, there is also a fairly detailed FAQ page that should allow you to iron out most issues you come across.

Independent review site TrustPilot shows BetVictor to have a tidy 3.9 out of 5 for their customer service with many users particularly lauding the efficiency of their live chat feature. The final bonus is that you'll have support around the clock with the customer support team operating in some guise 24/7.
