ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS MUST SCORE HIGHLY IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS TO QUALIFY FOR INCLUSION ON THE BEST SPORTSBOOKS GRID.

// Years Online

An online sportsbook should operate for a minimum of 7 years without major qualify blemishes in order to get eligibility.
While there are many good sportsbooks established over the past 7 years that have been displayed on the rating guide, most of them do not yet have enough mileage and history to make it to the top sportsbooks list.

// Sportsbook Bonuses & Incentives

Most bettors today usually have more than one sportsbook account, the main reason for that are bonuses.
It can be difficult to profit wagering throughout a long sports calendar without the benefit of perks and incentives; the online sportsbooks listed on this page offer some form of a sports free play, cash bonus, or reduced juice (discounted bookmaking margins).
Sportsbooks that offer outlandish bonuses with inordinately high rollover requirements are not eligible to be included in the top sportsbooks list.
The companies listed have reasonable and fun perks for bettors who like to search for some bang for their buck. There are no hidden nor impossible to complete wagering requirements buried in the small print at these betting sites.

// Cashier Options: Sending & Receiving Funds from Online Sportsbooks

Sometimes it can be more difficult to make a successful deposit than to place a winning sports bet. The betting sites on the top sportsbooks list have shown initiative in this area by keeping up with the times and adding unique and cheap ways of funding accounts such as bitcoin, and a host of other options, to allow quick and convenient funding.
Bitcoin, for example, allows players to move funds through a number of sportsbooks without incurring costly fees on top of every transaction.
Sending and receiving money should be the most hassle-free aspect in an online bookmaker relationship; while third-party processors can occasionally muck up any gambler’s day as seasoned veterans know, the sportsbooks listed on the above grid had proven to be the most consistent and reliable facilitating transactions over a long haul.

// Wagering Variety

Betting vanilla lines with no spice is no fun for even the most average of Joes. The online sportsbooks listed each offer some form of exotic wagering, super teasers, proposition bets, or dedicated in-play wagering to provide a more well-rounded wagering experience, and one with more possibility than a bettor might find even at the Las Vegas strip.
All of the sportsbooks displayed also make their betting odds feed available on SBROdds, allowing bettors to compare their product vs. rival bookmakers and showing a complete history of line changes, which can be invaluable for interpreting market movements and predicting future market fluctuations.

// Software & Mobile Betting Platforms

Mobile wagering accounts constitute more than 50% of sports betting volume these days, a figure that will only increase once players discover the efficiency of using their smartphones, tablets, and other devices over their traditional desktop computers and laptops. All of the online sportsbooks displayed on the top sportsbooks grid make either a dedicated mobile platform or responsive website design available, ensuring that regardless of the device, sports bettors are treated to a world-class betting experience.

// Customer Service

Poor customer service can ruin your day no matter the industry, sportsbooks industry is no different.
SBR constantly surveys and monitors the forum publications to gather up feedbacks from bettors in this area, and annually conducts an email response test to measure how much time it takes for sportsbooks to address random questions.
The online sportsbooks featured also offer either phone support (wagering and/or customer service), and assistance via live chat, which is the preferred method of contacting online sportsbooks according to most players.
