BetVictor Review

BetVictor, formerly known as Victor Chandler and VC Bet, was founded in the UK in 1946. It was one of the first UK bookmakers to move its business to Gibraltar to avoid higher taxes. Today, still based in Gibraltar, BetVictor is one of Europe’s leading online gaming and sports betting companies.

Betvictor Liverpool — In 2016, BetVictor signed a 3 year deal to become LFC's official global online betting partner and shirt sponsor.

In the online world, BetVictor has garnered a reputation for being the go-to bookmaker for football betting. On multiple occasions it has been named as the bookmaker which offers the best odds on European football by the leading odds comparison website Oddschecker.

With a continued drive for innovation, the BetVictor website was also given a major update a few years, and it has developed betting apps and betting tools to offer punters a seamless and enjoyable online experience.

BetVictor is licenced in Great Britain by the UK Gambling Commission, in the Republic of Ireland by the Revenue Commissioners and internationally by the Government of Gibraltar. It has more than 1 million customers from more than 100 countries who trust its service.

BetVictor Football Betting Tips

Punters can choose between 120 leagues and cup competitions from all over the globe. England is the best supported country (as you would expect) with all four top divisions plus it offers the Ryman League, Conference and Pro-Development League among others.

An average Premier League match has 90 pre-match betting markets - this is someway shy compared to William Hill and Unibet that muster up well over 200. With that said, BetVictor still offers all of the popular betting options such as; BTTS, match winner, scorecast, double chance, over/under and totals to name a few. You also have unique #PriceItUp bets being added plus you can use the builder tool to create your own bets.

Assessing market depth in major leagues, BetVictor delivers 75+ markets on La Liga, Serie A, MLS, Bundesliga, SPL and France’s Ligue 1. Things drop-off from there a bit with the top divisions in Turkey and Brazil offering around 40 markets per match. Certainly, BetVictor will cater to the needs of most football bettors but there are more comprehensive bookies to choose from.

BetVictor does claim to offer the best odds most often, so we compared the upcoming Premier League match odds to see. Listed below are the odds for the favourite to win the match. BetVictor showed that it is competitive, yet from this small batch, it’s clearly not the outright market leader.

Match/Event	Betvictor	Unibet	bet365
Spurs v Liverpool	2.50	2.48	2.30
Bournemouth v Leicester	2.40	2.43	2.37
Chelsea v Cardiff	1.20	1.18	1.16
Huddersfield v Palace	2.45	2.50	2.40
Man City v Fulham	1.12	1.13	1.10
Newcastle v Arsenal	1.92	1.94	1.85

BetVictor Horse Racing Betting Tips & more

BetVictor covers all UK and Ireland horse races as well as a selection of international meeting from the USA, South Africa and France. However, it doesn’t offer much from Australia or New Zealand like other bookmakers do.

Punters have a TimeForm racing guide for all local races and it covers some from South Africa, too. This is not as comprehensive as what the Racing Post offers in our opinion. You get an overview of the race followed by some experts predictions. The betting markets are win, each way, forecast and tricast - which can be straight or reversed. Live streaming is also available on the majority of races, both in the UK and abroad but you need to have a punt of at less £1 on the race to view it.

Virtual horse racing is another way you can bet. BetVictor offers these computer-generated races around the clock. The betting markets are the same and you have mini-form guides to add a little more realism to each event.

BetVictor Other Sports

If you like greyhound racing, BetVictor delivers every single race from the UK and Ireland with Timeform guides plus a few from the US and other countries. Moving to action from overseas, you have all the top American sports such as NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL are available for your betting pleasure. There’s plenty of tennis, golf, rugby, cricket and Aussie rules, too. Market depth could definitely be stronger, with many of these sports way off what you can find elsewhere.

BetVictor Live Betting

We aren’t going to sugarcoat this, BetVictor’s live betting could be far better. It delivers action from a range of sports, including football, tennis, rugby, golf, table tennis, volleyball and snooker among others. However, the average depth is sub-standard compared to industry rivals. For example, an ITF tennis match covered in-play at BetVictor had 8 betting markets open - the same game at bet365 had 68 markets.

Also, the digital scoreboard is lacklustre and there are no stats to give you an idea of which markets to bet on. The good news is, placing live bets is easy - and we found the platform to be very responsive, so it only took a couple of seconds to get your money in the game.

BetVictor Website & Login

Betting Products - Noteworthy Features

Delivering great odds is a key component to operating a successful online bookmakers, but it’s only one part of the complete package punters expect. BetVictor knows this, which is why its site boasts the following features:

BetVictor Cash Out

Now you can take control of your bets by using Cash Out. If you’re unfamiliar with this betting tool, it allows you to settle your bet before the match is over. Let’s say for instance you put £20 on Manchester v Liverpool to finish with under 2.5 goals and it’s 1 - 1 with 85 minutes on the clock. Your bet is in profit according to the live odds so you have the option of cashing out and making a few quid without having to stress for the final few minutes. Cash Out also works at the other end of the spectrum. When you’ve backed a dud - you can reclaim a little of your stake back instead of losing the lot. BetVictor offers both full and partial Cash Out on selected football, horse racing, tennis and basketball markets.

BetVictor #PriceItUp

The modern online bookmaker offers a wide variety of betting markets on every single event. However, you might have a unique bet in mind that isn’t listed. Maybe, you want to have a punt of Mo Salah scoring an own goal in the first half and then adding a brace in the second half. Well now you can, simply send a tweet to BetVictor with the hashtag #PriceItUp and when BetVictor’s traders have priced it up, they will let you know. The new market appears on the website, so placing the bet is the same as you would do normally. You can even piggy-back off of another punter’s ingenious thinking by having a punt one any of the other #PriceItUp bets displayed.

BetVictor #PriceItUp Builder

In addition to #PriceItUp, BetVictor now offers #PriceItUp Builder. This gives punters to opportunity to combine up to 10 selections from a single event into one unique bet. This is the largest same game accumulator feature currently on the market which is a definite feather in the cap for BetVictor. What’s also unique is that it has a new ‘Edit’ feature so you can alter the markets to find the exact bet you want.

BetVictor Bet Calculator

When planning your bets, it’s only natural to want to know how much you stand to win, which is why the bet calculator is a useful tool. BetVictor’s calculator provides 26 different bet types for you. Simply tap in the odds and the bet type and see your potential winnings. It can also calculate reverse forecast bets which is something many other calculators don’t offer.

Website/Usability

BetVictor’s website is functional but it’s by no means the best in class. It offers quick links to featured pages and popular pages which is useful as it does save a little time. There is also a main menu which lists the entire range of sports. For players accessing through a mobile device, the layout is slightly different in that there are featured pages across the top and a drop-down menu lists all the other sports.

When you click on a specific sport, everything is in list form - unlike other sites that divide things up in tabs, so you have to scroll down until you find exactly what you’re after. When you do click into a specific match market all the options are neatly laid out. Adding bets to your bet slip from both the full and mobile platform is easy. If you add multiple selections, the options are displayed as to what bets you can place. However, there are no breadcrumbs which makes navigation rather tedious at times as you always have to go back to the main hub page to look at other matches.

BetVictor Mobile App

An alternative to using the web-based mobile betting platform is to download the BetVictor mobile app - available for iOS and Android devices. Whilst, we didn’t find the desktop platform as user-friendly as some other bookmakers’, the BetVictor mobile app is much better. It’s neatly organised and it packs in all on the great features associated with this brand. One of the best features which is only available on the iOS is super-fast Cash Out where you only need to swipe down on your screen. No many bookies have this yet - so it’s another first for BetVictor.

BetVictor Withdrawals & Deposits

All of the main payment methods are available ranging from credit and debit cards to e-wallets and prepaid vouchers.

Credit Cards
Debit Cards
PayPal
Neteller
Skrill
Paysafecard
Entropay
Apple Pay

Payout times vary. E-wallets expect to wait between 1 - 3 days. Debit/Credit cards take 3 - 6 days and BACS (UK only) take 3 - 5 days.

Live chat: click the speech bubble icon on the website to launch this feature
Email: help@betvictor.com
Telephone: BetVictor provides a Request A Call service. Just tap in your phone number and customer support will call you back
