Please focus on the following features when choosing your online bookmaker:

Odds

Nothing is more important than the highest possible quota for the next sporting event. If your bookmaker only offers average odds, you should look for a better one sometime. The comparison of odds helps you to find the best bookmaker. If you are unsure about the seriousness of the odds, a quick search for reviews will help. This will take a few minutes of your time, but on the other hand, you will not be annoyed about supposedly bad odds and you will regret the registration. As already mentioned: For beginners odds are not important, but that will change quickly – for professionals they are the most important element when betting.

Limits

Also, betting limits do not affect new players, but that changes quickly – especially if you start very successfully right away. If you are very skilled, private bookmakers will quickly take note and take appropriate action. This is usually done by limiting your bets. If you are suddenly only able to place bets with a maximum stake of five euros, you have been limited and your bookmaker is not as pleased with your performance as you are. The solution: Either you use a betting exchange right from the start or you find one of the few private bookmakers who does not set any limits and therefore wants to be attractive for professional players.

Markets

Bookmakers offer a range of sports and leagues and a variety of markets. One of the most popular bets is the Asian Handicap, which is now more popular than the classic (European) handicap. Although this type of betting carries a lower risk than other handicaps and bets, not every operator offers Asian Handicaps. It is best to check the offer from your bookmaker to make sure they are as varied as possible.

This advice applies to the different types of bets and the sports and leagues that are offered. It can be a considerable advantage if your bookmaker covers some of the lower leagues such as the Conference National and Isthmian League. The lower the level of the quoted league, the better it is for you. While most of the leading operators know more than you about the major leagues, they are uncertain about setting the odds for a game such as Fleetwood Town vs Barnet.

We have now divided the betting operators into three groups and informed you of the key points to consider before making a final decision. However, even with these different groups there are many variations and it is hard to find a bookmaker that fits your needs perfectly. To remedy this, we have created some guidelines for the different types of players.
