8.2Expert Score
1Bet is undoubtedly one of the top betting sites in Ireland, boasting the features and offerings of a world-class sportsbook. However, it's important to note a couple of limitations: 1Bet is one of the few platforms that imposes a maximum bonus conversion limit. It is one of the very few sportsbooks with partial cashout and market leading live streaming offerings.

1Bet betting bonus

We have high expectations of 1Bet as it’s one of the few betting sites that’s betting-centred, without strong emphasis on casino games. However, they offer a rather standard welcome match bonus up to average €100.

Make sure you use the bonus code WB1001B when you deposit to claim the welcome bonus. Luckily, unlike other online sportsbook, 1Bet doesn’t require wagering the full deposit amount for the bonus balance to be credited to the customer’s account.

Bonus terms

Instead of following the rest of the pack claiming that the wagering requirement is 6x the deposit and the bonus amount, 1Bet requires customers to wager the bonus amount 12 times, which is equally same as the welcome bonus matches your deposit. However, if the bonus percentage changes at any point in the future and the wagering requirement stays the same, we’d have to evaluate the bonus with a different approach.

Wagering requirement (WR)12x bonus
Minimum qualifying odds1.80 (4/5)
Minimum qualifying deposit€10
Sports restrictionsNHL; NBA: “Two way first to score” “Two way last to score” “Team highest-scoring quarter” “Two-way race to”
Time to complete WR21 days
RestrictionsRefunded, Tie, Cancelled, Denied bets

The odds of 1.80 (4/5) are on the lower end – they are the most favourable ones among all CashtoCode betting sites.

Betting promotions for registered customers

At the time of the reviewing process of 1Bet, which spanned roughly 10 days, we notice that the offers changed based on the trending matches. As the UEFA Champions League knockout stage was trending, there was a limited time free bet. The next week, the offer was gone, but we are confident that they offer bonuses and promotions for other events that are popular to engage customers.

UEFA Tournaments Knockout Stage75% up to €100 Free Bet
Bet €20 on Event Builder€30 Free Bet
Spin the WheelDeposit with ApplePay
Weekly Free Bet€5 free bet on every €50 deposit
Outer Space TournamentsPrizes

A unique offer which we haven’t seen elsewhere is the Bet Builder promotion which requires bettors to place a bet of €20 using the Bet Builder to get a €30 free bet. This is not only a great way of promoting a feature which is often overlooked by casual bettors, but also a great way to reward existing active customers.

Overall, 1Bet has fewer bonuses and promotions that its competitors, but they seem more practical. Also, simply by being relevant to the trending sporting events, even we were more interested than usual in the promotions we evaluate.

VIP program

The VIP membership at 1Bet is by invitation only, meaning simply betting or depositing will not get you among the “very important players”. In addition, 1Bet claims the number of VIP customers is limited so they can pay special attention to every VIP.

From the publicly available details, we can extrapolate the following VIP perks:

  • Expert guidance
  • Quick payments
  • Higher payout limits
  • Priority service for all requests
  • Tailored promotions
  • Exclusive tournaments
  • Special gifts

We’re honestly and pleasantly surprised by this approach of keeping the VIP number limited. It appears the Irish betting site market is oversaturated by VIP and loyalty programs that in practice don’t offer much. On the other hand, there are plenty of sportsbooks that offer loyalty programs that take thousands of euros in deposits or years before you start getting decent perks or promotions.

1Bet only says that there are four different levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond. However, they don’t say anything about which perks are available to which VIP level. As the membership is by invitation only, we can’t see why they’d put VIPs in different groups.

They also claim that the two account managers that take care of all the VIPs are called Gabriella and Francesco. You can contact them directly from the VIP Club page.

Banking at 1Bet

Depositing and withdrawing is made easy at 1Bet. However, we had to take away some of their points as they hide some terms related to withdrawals. This, then in turn, can significantly increase the customer support queries and cause commotion with bettors of all types.

Depositing with CashtoCode at 1Bet

1Bet accepts CashtoCode deposits from customers based in Ireland. You can deposit any amount in the range of €20 to €800, meaning there are no fixed price points. Select the amount you with to deposit during the deposit.

Here are the steps you should take to deposit with CashtoCode and bet with real money at 1Bet:

  1. Visit the 1Bet website by tapping on the Play Now button.
  2. Register an account with 1Bet.
  3. Select CashtoCode in the Cashier and select one of the deposit amounts.
  4. Select a nearby CashtoCode outlet to generate a barcode slip.
  5. Visit the outlet and present the CashtoCode barcode slip before making the payment.
  6. Once the cashier scans the barcode the transaction is complete.

Other deposit methods

If you don’t find CashtoCode convenient, you can choose from a range of cards, e-wallets and you even have access to crypto deposits. Here’s how the limits look like per deposit method at 1Bet.

Deposit methodLimits
VISA€10 – €5,000
VISA Electron€10 – €5,000
Maestro€10 – €5,000
MasterCard€10 – €5,000
Revolut€10 – €5,000
Paysafecard€10 – €1,000
Skrill€10 – €10,000
Neteller€10 – €10,000
M2P€30 – €5,000

Bank Transfer€10 – €2,000
Instant Payment€10 – €5,000
Crypto€20 – €10,000
MiFinity€10 – €2,500

The only thing we don’t like in this section is how the Crypto deposits aren’t individually displayed. It may cause confusion among customers who are already doing a lot to get out of their comfort zone depositing in crypto. Here, we see crypto limits in EUR.

Withdrawal methods

The full list of withdrawal methods is hidden until you have sufficient balance to submit a withdrawal. To this day, we can’t understand why a sportsbook would do such a thing. It’s always best to provide as much details as possible so new and prospecting customers are fully informed. These are what the potential payout options should be at 1Bet based on our experience and insights:

Withdrawal methodLimits
Skrill€10 – €10,000
Neteller€10 – €10,000
Bank Transfer€50 – €5,000
Crypto€20 – €5,000
MiFinity€10 – €2,500

Ensure the details with which you register at 1Bet match your personal details in your ID. Additionally, provide a proof of address such as a utility bill or a bank statement. 1Bet, like many other international betting sites, take KYC very seriously, especially with successful bettors.

Customer support

1Bet exhibits the characteristics of a well-established, large betting site, especially in its approach to customer support. We received a prompt response during our live chat test and were satisfied with the quality of the reply.

All email correspondence, including details about bonus activations and awarded coupons, is recorded and accessible under the ‘Mailbox' tab in your account, earning 1Bet additional points for transparency.

FAQsBasic

At first glance, the FAQ section seems comprehensive and thoroughly covers common questions. However, upon closer examination, we found that the information provided is quite sparse. Important details like withdrawal limits and processing times are notably missing, and more sensitive topics are conspicuously overlooked.

Is 1Bet safe?

1Bet scores highly for its longevity in the market, though its licensing and user feedback garner only average ratings. There is notable feedback from Irish customers, where 1Bet had a significant presence a few years ago. It appears to continue attracting a considerable number of bettors from Ireland today.

Trustpilot rating2.3
Launch date2011
LicenseCuracao
Parent companyBellona N.V. Casinos
Affiliate program1Bet Affiliates

Bellona N.V. operates nearly a dozen betting sites, with 1Bet standing out as the most popular. It is effectively the flagship of their operations, and they treat it accordingly. As with any betting service, user reviews reveal that there are always some dissatisfied customers, particularly concerning bonus policies.

Betting with 1Bet

1Bet provides its customers with the ability to choose from three different interface views: American, Asian, and European. Each view highlights sports that are most popular in those regions. For instance, selecting the American view brings leagues such as the NBA, MLB, NFL, MLS, and NHL to the forefront of the sidebar, followed by tennis and football, with the order influenced by the league or sport's popularity.

While this customisation is user-centric, ideally, it would automatically adjust based on the user's location. Currently, users need to make this adjustment manually.

The platform also offers a wide variety of other sports, including golf, formula 1, cricket, and MMA, totalling 40 different sports.

Betting features

For those who enjoy live betting, 1Bet's early cashout feature is a significant advantage, offering both full and partial cashout options – while many Irish betting sites provide early cashout, not all include the partial cashout option.

The Bet Builder at 1Bet is user-friendly, enhancing betting possibilities. 1Bet also encourages the use of this tool with a promotional offer, which was available at the time of writing this review. Please verify the current availability of this promotion on the Promotions page.

Live betting

Considering all the tools and features available at 1Bet, it’s by far the best Irish betting site for live betting. Instead of focusing on various promotions, 1Bet prioritises user-friendy interface with no frills and advanced betting features.

For example, as a customer who’s into live betting, you can easily and quickly navigate to the team or championship of your interest with the search bar, use partial and full cashout, place Quick Single Bets as you’re closely following the live stats and the live video feed.

Live streaming

1Bet has market leading live streaming considering both the quantity of events on offer for live streaming and the quality of the streams. Besides crisp video feed, you can also easily follow the live match stats that help you place a better and informed live bet.

The only thing missing is live streaming filters, meaning a toggle or a menu that will allow customers to filter only the matches that come with live video streaming. This shouldn’t be a complicated feature to integrate, but we’re positive 1Bet have their own reasons.

Margin3.55%2.02%2.02%

The difference in betting margins is significant and many serious bettors will look the other way and join a sportsbook with better odds. However, if you’re into live betting, or you consider yourself a casual bettor, 1Bet has all the bells and whistles you need to enjoy online betting. The narrow difference in profit margin starts affecting your bankroll after dozens of bets.

1Bet app and user-interface

Whether you opt to download the 1Bet app or use its features directly in your mobile browser, the quality of the experience remains outstanding. The interface is designed for ease of navigation, and locating specific odds is straightforward. Unlike many other betting sites, 1Bet enhances user experience with a search function that allows you to quickly find specific tournaments or clubs along with their upcoming matches.

Overall, the design is clean, almost too minimal. Decorations are not their thing and any serious bettor would agree that this is the right approach.

You can download the Android app directly from their site which is compatible with both Android smartphones and tablets. All iOS users, including iPads and iPhones can bet at 1Bet via their respective mobile web browsers.

Conclusion

1Bet stands out as a giant among Curacao-licenced betting sites in Ireland, embodying all the traits of a top-tier sportsbook that offers a comprehensive betting experience. The live betting and streaming functionalities are particularly impressive, greatly enhancing user engagement. The additional betting features further contribute to the overall convenience and broaden the betting options available.

While there are slightly higher betting margins, the overall cost to the user is relatively minor. Notably, using CashtoCode for deposits helps avoid sharing of personal and payment details.

Sportaza has all the features you need to enjoy both live and pre-match betting on all popular sports. If you’re lucky, you might even find a live broadcast or at least a live stream at Sportaza on the match you’re betting. It has fewer promotions than the average Canadian betting site, but it has a VIP program which can benefit you in the long run. Lastly, the Boosted Odds promotion which is available regularly is something to take note of before placing any bet.

Sportuna does a great job at making online betting fun. However, it stops there. It’s not a sportsbook for serious sports bettors, but it’s the perfect site for casual betting. Early cashout, lots of promotions, bet builder and an easy to navigate odds selection – it ticks all the boxes. Live streaming is not their forte and they are licensed abroad. If these two are not your prime concern, deposit and bet in EUR in minutes.

3 N1bet
More details +
N1Bet may sound like a betting-oriented gambling site, but it’s geared for online casino players. There’s more in store for casino players than there is for sports betting enthusiasts. It comes with the usual bells and whistles, but it’s not doing anything exceptionally well. It’s just in the middle in all aspects. The welcome bonus, while difficult to understand, we think it’s more advantageous than the usual welcome bonus we get to see at a betting site of this kind.

Objectively, 1Bet stands out in Canada with its comprehensive feature set that few other sportsbooks can match. However, there are a few alternatives on the Rabidi platform that are both safe and reliable, which you might consider.

Firstly, there's Sportuna Sportsbook, known for offering better betting margins. Sportaza mirrors Sportuna in both features and odds, providing a similar betting experience. If you're looking for a different option, N1Bet elevates the offerings of the previous two, positioning itself as a more sophisticated sportsbook. These alternatives, while distinct, provide viable options for those seeking variety beyond what 1Bet offers.
