Rabona Sportsbook Review

Rabona Betting Bonus

Rabona puts forward a sports welcome bonus of 100% up to $/€100 for new members, if they deposit at least $/€20 or currency equivalent. The deposit amount must be wagered 1x at minimum odds of 1.50 to unlock the offer, and all bets must be settled. After that, you’ll find the bonus automatically activated in your account, without the need to use any specific promo codes.

Because Rabona is open to numerous jurisdictions, the bonus amount is redeemable in several different currencies, including HUF, NOK, PLN, INR, NZD and CAD. To help you figure it out, here are some example equivalents to expect: 

Whilst this offer is not bad at all for a new punter, we wouldn’t call it the most impressive one on the market. You can find similar offers at other bookmakers as well, for example LibraBet and RTBet.

Bonus terms

Whether you are just placing your first sports ticket or you already know your way around the markets like no one else, in terms of transparency, Rabona caters to both audiences. 

The promo terms are explained in a detailed and clear manner, from the activation process, to the minimum odds allowed, alongside any specific geographical differences and restrictions. The same can be said across all bonus types, not just the welcome offer, but if you need extra clarifications, you can always reach out to customer service.

Deposits made through Skrill and NETELLER do not qualify for the promotion. In addition, certain bets are excluded from the bonus wagering, namely cashed out, system bets, wagers placed with free bets or bonus funds, voided bets, and any bets made in other sections of the site (Casino, Live Casino and Virtuals). 

The welcome offer is also subjected to a maximum cashout rule of 10x the bonus amount for residents of Thailand, Japan, Brazil, Chile and Peru. 

Available Countries

Rabona is a foreign bookmaker that’s open to global visitors, and it’s especially relevant in countries like Australia, Italy, France, Greece, Spain and Norway. However, some jurisdictions are restricted entirely from using the platform due to regulatory reasons, for example Afghanistan, Belarus, Iran, North Korea and the United States. Players based in these locations are not allowed to open accounts or deposit funds. 

In addition to the general exclusions, certain countries are specifically banned from participating in promotions or bonuses, namely Armenia, Tunisia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Indonesia, Georgia and Malaysia. Even if users from these regions can access the platform and deposit, they are not eligible for any promotional offers or bonuses associated with the site.

Betting promotions for registered customers

We must give credit where credit is due, and Rabona definitely deserves some praise for the number of sportsbetting promotions. Alongside the welcome bonus, players can grab 9 additional offers, including cashback and weekly reloads. It’s also worth noting that this is one of the few brands to provide a horse racing bonus, which is quite rare and will definitely appeal to niche audiences as well. 

VIP program

The Rabona VIP program contains five statuses —Beginner, Amateur, Professional, World Class and Legend. Each one offers increasing benefits, such as higher cashback percentages (ranging from 0% to 15%), monthly withdrawal limits (from $/€7,000 to $/€20,000), and access to a personal account manager starting with the World Class level. 

VIP players also receive tailored financial privileges, exclusive promotions and the chance to enjoy gameplay with no limits on winnings. The tier-specific payout caps applicable daily and monthly are also adapted to various international currencies, and here just are a few examples:

The program exhibits a strong appeal and value for both casino players and sports bettors, as the benefits apply across the platform, so you make progress on bets made on every vertical. Cashback can offset losses, whilst higher withdrawal limits and personalized support are especially beneficial for high rollers. 

The VIP level is determined by your activity over the past 90 days, taking deposits, withdrawals and bonus usage into account. However, a downside is that if you’re not active for one month, you get reverted to the lowest level.

In addition to the VIP scheme, Rabona has a plethora of loyalty rewards for bettors, including:

• Loyalty Points: You get 5% of every deposit back as points, and you can earn even more by placing bets—every $/€100 or A$150 wagered gives you points
• Weekly Challenges: Completing 20 or 40 casino or sports challenges each week can earn you up to 50 bonus points 
• Tournaments: By joining tournaments, you can collect additional points and climb leaderboards for better prizes of up to $/€1,500 or more
• Collections Reward: You can use points to collect digital sports cards and receive free bets or free spins for each one. Completing a full set gives you a cash reward of up to $/€8,500 or A$12,750
• CUP Reward: When you acquire 80,000 Points, you can unlock CUP milestones that lead to a final reward of up to $/€8,000 or A$12,000, paid out gradually as you progress.

Banking at Rabona 

To see the payment methods applicable to you, make sure you select the appropriate language from the website settings, go to the payments page, specify your country and currency. All payment methods are localized, meaning some might not be available to everyone. Alternatively, if you have an account, you can go to the deposit page, and then you will be prompted to select the payments system.

Based on our checks, the main deposit options include VISA/Mastercard credit/debit cards, bank transfer, e-wallets (MiFinity, Skrill, NETELLER), and 8+ cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH, USDT, ADA etc.). The transaction limits are around $/€10 to $/€2,000 for bank cards and bank transfer, but slightly higher for crypto ($/€10 to $/€5,000). No fees apply on the bookie’s end on any deposit. These options are further listed for withdrawals, with similar financial caps once again, and an approximate payout duration of 1-3 days. 

The withdrawal limits are in line with your current VIP status and, in our opinion, they are quite low for level 1 (only $/€500 daily), which might not be appreciated by high rollers. However, VIPs do get priority cash out, also.

Accepted currencies

If you want to stick to traditional currencies or enjoy anonymous betting through crypto, you’ll be in good hands here, on Rabona. On both ends, the brand offers more options than other competitors, but especially for crypto, since we’re seeing niche coins like ADA displayed as well:

Customer support

Rabona offers several resources to help players deal with any issues that may arise when navigating the site. The first one is the FAQs section which you can access from the footer of the homepage. Here, there are 9 answered questions about games not loading, withdrawals, account closure and other common problems, so you should be set if that’s what you’re struggling with. Alternatively, you can open a live chat 24/7 from the contact page. 

After inserting your username, message and e-mail address, based on our tests, you get connected with an agent in around 30 seconds to 1 minute, especially if you’re in a higher position in the queue. The agents were helpful, fast and committed to solving our test issue as well. You can also receive e-mail support for more complicated matters, at support@rabona.com. 

In terms of KYC, Rabona doesn’t make the process mandatory until you make a first withdrawal request, so you can deposit and bet in the meantime. From your profile, in the verification tab, you’ll be notified if and when documents are required.

But, in general, players must submit certified ID, proof of residence, and bank or card statements, within 30 days of the request date. Verification typically takes 10 days but may be longer for complex cases, and accompanied by additional checks like phone calls or facial recognition.

Is Rabona legit?

Rabona is definitely a legitimate operator, as it’s been around since 2019 and is part of the Rabidi N.V. group of brands. You’ll find a valid license listed on the homepage, issued by Anjouan Gaming. The site connection is secured through SSL encryption as well, protecting any incoming and outgoing data from outside attacks.

Other factors that provide credibility are the integration of trusted payments systems like VISA and Mastercard, plus the presence of 100+ known software providers for the casino section, such as Spinomenal, Red Rake Gaming and NoLimit City.

Furthermore, Rabona has over 1,355+ reviews submitted on TrustPilot and an average rating of 3.4 out of 5. Players noted the friendliness of the customer support team the most and the good sports odds, whilst other members were dissatisfied with the payout speed and listed it as something to be adjusted for the future.

Responsible Gaming

Rabona demonstrates a strong commitment to responsible gambling by promoting safe play and offering practical tools to help players maintain healthy habits or seek support if needed:

• Tips to maintain control: Players are advised to only use extra funds, avoid chasing losses and treat gambling as a leisure activity, not a source of income
• Self-exclusion: Players can request a temporary or indefinite break by contacting the support team at support@rabona.com. The account will be closed within 24 hours
• Self-assessment questionnaire: A detailed checklist helps players evaluate if gambling is negatively affecting their life, prompting them to reflect and take action if needed
• Specialized support: Rabona refers members to trusted organizations such as GamCare, Gamblers Anonymous and Gambling Therapy for confidential and professional guidance
• Prohibiting underage access: Strict measures are in place to prevent the access of individuals under the age of 18, with any winnings by underage players forfeited upon verification

Betting with Rabona

Rabona tackles the needs of multiple punter categories effortlessly, as it offers 30+ conventional sports like football, tennis, basketball and ice hockey, but also 260+ e-sports matches, horse racing, virtual sports and a live section. 

In our opinion, the brand caters to beginner and advanced bettors the most, because for the main events, there are numerous popular markets supported, for example handicaps, last goals, correct score, odd/even. Combo wagers are also listed like 1×2 & total or fourth goal & 1×2. 

Other standout features worth mentioning are the live stream, Bet Builder, Fast Markets and Quick Single Betting. Finally, players can also try out specials for a touch of variety (music, political events and awards shows).

Betting Features

Now, to gain a better understanding of how these features provide value here on Rabona, we’ll analyze some of them more closely. The betting limits are generally okay, though your wager could still be lowered for some events based on our checks, so we wouldn’t call it a high-roller dedicated sportsbook, either: 

• Bet Builder – combine selections from the same event into a single bet, available across most sports
• Enhanced Odds – only for single, multiple and system bets placed on the 1×2 market before the start of an eligible match, not during
• Accumulator Boost – if you place multibets with 3+ events with minimum odds of 1.40, you can get a combo booster multiplier of 3% to 100%
• Early Payout – only for single, multiple and system bets placed during the pre-match on the 1×2 market (Home or Away Win)
• Bore draw 100% refund – if the match ends in a 0:0 draw, you get 100% of your bet back. Only available for correct score, halftime/fulltime correct score and halftime/full time markets, and only on specific leagues 

Live Betting

The live betting section is spectacular on Rabona. The platform connects players with over 25,000 live events monthly from 30+ sports. To feel the pulse of the action up close, there’s also a live stream that loads fairly fast. Placing a ticket only takes a few seconds and the odds get adjusted in real time as well. Finally, around 10+ major leagues are available for live betting, such as Premier League and UEFA Champions League, alongside smaller competitions from all across the globe.

Odds & Pricing

Rabona offers competitive pre-match football odds with a low margin of 4.34%, beating industry averages and providing strong long-term value. However, these margins rise for basketball (6.78%) and tennis (6.23%), reducing profitability in those markets. In-play odds are more volatile and typically less favorable due to rapid adjustments. 

Players can benefit from boosted odds and accumulator bonuses of up to 100%, which help offset higher margins. Overall, value-seeking bettors should focus on football pre-match markets and promotions, whilst being cautious with live betting and high-margin sports where long-term returns are less favorable.

Rabona app and user-interface

Are you the type of bettor who doesn’t want to miss any key moment of the game, even if you’re not at home? Thankfully, Rabona makes it extremely easy to stay connected at all times. For starters, the website is responsive, so you can access it from the browser of any device.

On top, the brand offers a desktop app compatible with MacOS and Windows, which you can install in just a few clicks from the footer of the Rabona homepage. Next to it, you’ll also find the corresponding QR codes of the mobile apps for Android and iOS. This is definitely a strong suit, because you can use all account features much easier as well (e.g. deposits, withdrawals, customer support, responsible gambling).  

Conclusion

Rabona is definitely a competitive bookmaker to consider, especially by sports fans who value frequent promotions, from boosted odds to loyalty points. Whilst it doesn’t have the highest number of sports, it does provide great coverage in terms of leagues, markets and live streaming. However, there’s a delay in loading at times and some sportsbook sections take a while to display correctly, which should definitely be rectified.
