Best In-Play Betting Sites

Best In-Play Betting Sites

In-running betting is very common and betting sites will offer it on most races, sports, events or tournaments. Most sites will have a dedicated In-Play, In-Game, Live or In-Running betting tab on their homepage. Most live markets are calculated using software and algorithms that take into account the initial odds and then factor in anything that could influence those odds (goals, time left, red cards, subs and injuries, etc). Computers rapidly calculate probabilities and risk and the outcome of this is an odds price.

Live in-game betting sites, but who are the best? Our selection of the best in-play betting sites is based on the following criteria:

Reputation – A well known brand will always wants to keep its reputation intact and so will behave responsibly. Well known brands also provide most of the other criteria listed below.

Being a member of these sports betting industry groups also show that in-play betting sites want to behave responsibly: Independent Betting Adjudication Service (IBAS) offering adjudication for customers, European Sports Security Association (ESSA) monitors irregular betting patterns and possible instances of event manipulation and eCommerce and Online Gaming Regulation and Assurance (eCOGRA) an internationally approved testing agency, accredited certification body and player protection and standards organisation.

Security – A 100% safe and well regulated sports betting site, with SSL from a Leading Certificate Authority such as Thawte, providing security from 128-bit up to “military grade” 256-bit AES encryption.

Promotions – We’re looking for sports betting sites that provide not just a great sign up offer but ongoing daily and weekly offers, regular money back offers, odds and acca boosts.

Sports Markets – Many to choose from including e-sports, UFC, world cups in fact a market on sporting events that are happening around the globe 24/7 365 days a year. Plus Politics, Financials and Special Bets.

Betting Types & Bet Markets – A sports betting site offering the full array of betting types and markets on each event, not just win or lose, for example Betfair offer over 120 markets on a single football match.

Cash Out – A must for any sports betting site, puts you in control of your bet.

Live In-Play Betting – Again another must for any betting site, puts you at the heart of the game.

Competitive Odds – Obvious one this!

Best Odds Guaranteed – A nice one to have when betting on horses or greyhounds. If the SP is higher than your early price then the higher price is paid on a win.

Fully Licensed – Last but not least the sports betting site should have a valid licence for your jurisdiction ensuring that they are regularly tested for fairness and security.
