Bet365 is one of the biggest online betting sites on the planet. They are based in the UK, but in recent years they have turned their attention to Canada and the blossoming sports betting market that is taking off over here. Bet365 is a reputable and trustworthy site that as a Canadian you have probably heard about due to their aggressive marketing in trying to gain market share in Canada.
In my opinion Bet365 is the best overall sportsbook of the ones I promote here at Sports Betting Canadian. They have the best live betting option and the biggest selection of sports to bet on. If you had to sign up at just one betting site I would suggest Bet365 (although it is advantageous to sign up with more than one sportsbook).
Canadian Sports Coverage
Bet365 is one of the biggest betting sites in the world so their sports coverage is second to none in the sports betting industry. And yes this does of course include all the sports that are popular among Canadian bettors. There are 100+ bets available on every NHL game and the other big Canadian sports are all covered supremely well.
On top of the Canadian content Bet365 literally covers everything in the world of sports. One look at their sportsbook and you will see that if a sporting event is taking place you can bet on it at Bet365. A great example of just how many betting lines Bet365 offers is that they even accept bets on Czech junior hockey and German Eishockey Liga 2 games!
Live Betting
In my opinion, Bet365 is hands down the best live betting sportsbook online. They offer live betting on literally almost every event that they take pre game bets on. Bet365 also has live streaming video on their website so a good chunk of the events are broadcast right at Bet365.com with the live betting options available beside the stream. They really have got live betting down to an art form at Bet365 and they are committed to continuing to stay ahead of the curve with all sports betting technologies.
A word from Bet365 on their streaming service:
Mobile Betting
As expected, Bet365 also has a very strong mobile betting software. This is crucial because mobile betting is the easiest way to place live bets. You will notice that the live betting options are featured prominently on Bet365’s mobile betting platform.
Deposit Options
It is very easy to deposit and cash out at Bet365. Interac e-Transfer is our recommended deposit/withdrawal option for Canadians and Bet365 features this payment method. They also accept Visa and MasterCard deposits at a very high rate compared to other sportsbooks (from my experience).
On top of this they also accept a bunch of other deposit methods. Here are a few categorized by the type of deposit.
***These were the deposit options the last time I checked the site. They can change at any time.
- Deposits directly from your bank account: Interac, InstaDebit or Wire Transfer.
- Deposits using a prepaid voucher: paysafecard.
- Credit card deposits through a third party (to ensure acceptance): Click to Pay, ApplePay.
When cashing out Bet365 will automatically try to withdraw your funds via the method that you deposited. For example, if you deposited through Interac, Bet365 makes it easy to use Interac to withdraw funds back to your bank account. To change your cash out method you will have to contact Bet365 customer support.
Customer Support
You don’t get to be the biggest online betting site in the world without treating your customers right. I have had to contact Bet365 customer support a few times to change my withdrawal details and have only had positive results. The customer service people are given the power to truly help the customers rather than just give set answers like you see at some betting sites.
You can contact Bet365 support via 24 hour live chat (this is what I suggest), email, web message or even mail. Bet365 makes themselves very accessible to the customer and no question or concern is too small.
