188Bet

Background

188Bet was established in 2006 and are owned by Cube Limited, which is fully licensed and regulated by the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Committee. They have become arguably the most trusted bookmaker in Asia and they are after a piece of the UK market.
They are obviously keen to dispel the myth that Asian bookmakers aren’t secure, as all deposits and winnings are held in a separate account with the Royal Bank of Scotland, increasing the safety of your money.

The In-Play market is huge and they’ve gained a reputation for being an In-Play specialist. They guarantee at least 2200 live betting events each month. They also publish odds earlier than most other bookmakers, so if you get in early enough, you can get some decent odds. Although the football coverage is good, other markets remain a bit limited

The website is a bit different from the way UK bookies are set out. However, it is nicely presented and straightforward, allowing the event or match of choice to be found easily. In addition to sports betting, 188Bet also offer casino and live casino.
