BetVictor Review 2024

There are few bigger or better-known bookmakers in the gambling industry than BetVictor right now. 

The company have been about since 1946 and was started by William Chandler. It's gone on to change names several times, although has always stayed connected to the Chandler family.

As you would expect from such an iconic brand, BetVictor has been at the forefront of sponsorship for both sports teams and sporting events. Over the years they have sponsored the likes of Chelsea FC as well as bringing on board gambling ambassadors such as Michael Owen, Harry Redknapp and Teddy Sheringham. 

The most notable of the sporting events have to be that of the Victor Chandler Chase, a Group 1 race run at Ascot Racecourse each year.

Current Promotions

BetVictor has lots of promotions on offer throughout the year. Here are some of the current offers:

• Harry's Picks Free Bet – Place 5 bets of €2 or more on any sports market and get €1 to use on Harry Redknapp's weekend picks.
• Run For Your Money – If your horse fails to start or loses all chance of winning at the start for whatever reason, then you will get a cash refund on selected races.
• Acca Insurance – If 1 leg of your 5+ fold (cumulative odds of 5.00+) lets you down then you will get your stake back up to €10.

Sports and Markets Available at BetVictor

There's a crazy range of sports on offer at BetVictor. Football is dominating on the site and few can match their market and even game coverage. 

Outside of this, horse racing is another sport that is brilliantly covered, along with the likes of tennis, cricket, golf, rugby and a range of US-based sports as well.

It's not just the range of sports though. The amount of markets available at events will rival anything you'll find at another bookmaker. That number just increases when you factor in the #PriceItUp tool. We'll have more on that a little later.

Betting Features

The first place that we have to start is the in-play betting section. 

Football shows off the full skill set here, and you get to choose from pretty much all the games that are offered within the football betting section. We loved the all-new match centre at the top of the page and the graphics that come with it are second to none. A slight gripe here is that we would like it to be a little more accurate at times, as it does seem to go dead for a while.

The horse racing betting section allows you to access the bookmakers live streaming section. Races from the UK and Ireland, with some international races as well, can be streamed from within the race card of each race. All you need to access this is to have placed a bet of €1 or more on said race and you get to start watching about 5 minutes before the start of that race.

Another relatively new area is the BetVictor Blog. Here they can utilise their sports ambassadors who create quite a lot of content for it. An example of this is Michael Owen who uploads articles a couple of times a week as part of his role. You get around 10 articles per day, which is crazy good considering it's free and of course, each article is related to betting, so it's not just a “sports” blog.

The #PrictItUp bet builder is one of our favourites at BetVictor and this allows you to create your bets. All you need to do is pick the game that you want to build a bet for and then simply choose the bets that you want to include. For example, this could be Harry Kane to score first, both teams to score and over 4.5 corners in each half. BetVictor will then give you an instant price for that bet. 

What's great about it is that you can build your own bet on a variety of sports. Choose your own NFL player line, add lengths to a horse's winning distance or bet on an NBA player's rebounds. The possibilities are endless.

Betting Odds with BetVictor

BetVictor has been able to win awards for its pricing structure in the past. Their current structure is just as good, if not better than pretty much all of the competition. 

It's the consistency that we found to be most remarkable and they were able to offer incredible prices on so many different sports and markets.

Payments and Banking Methods

The first thing to note when banking at BetVictor is that the deposit methods that you can access will depend on the country and the currency that you have chosen. While it is region specific, debit card, Neteller, PayPal, Skrill and Paysafecard are available to most users.

Withdrawals are available on all of these methods where applicable. There are no fees at any point for banking with BetVictor and payments are generally processed pretty quickly. Debit cards are within 3 to 6 working days and e-wallets within 1 to 3 working days. However, we have found that often they are much quicker than their reported timeframes.

Desktop/Mobile Experience

BetVictor has gone through several rebrands and site refreshes over the last 20 years or so. They are constantly changing their platform to make it better for their users. The latest update came about in 2019 and we have to admit, it's their best yet.

The menu system down the left-hand side is brilliant. It works like a menu system on your computer in that the page doesn't move, and you can navigate within this until you find roughly where you want to go. It means you can either select a sport to get an overview of the whole sport or just use the ladder system to get a more specific look at the marketplace.

The betting app has also had a facelift as well and again, it looks stunning. You have the menu section at the bottom allowing you to easily access your open bets, bet slip, cash out and then the casino.

Everything moves and loads instantly. There is no waiting around, no loading times and no fuss. It's hands down one of the best-looking bookmakers on the market right now.
