Betmaze Review

Betmaze are a great addition to the UK sports betting landscape. Firstly, they offer a great range of sports, leagues and markets, covering high-profile and niche events. Their odds are competitive, and they already go toe-to-toe with some of the best in the business for Premier League betting odds, where they are consistently taking a margin of less than 8%.

There are, however, areas for development. We would like to see an improvement in promotions. The new customer offer could be more generous and there could be more promos and bonuses for existing Betmaze UK players. Withdrawal times could be quicker, and we would like to see the bookie set things out a little more clearly, with greater prominence given to the responsible gambling section and to customer support. Overall, our Betmaze Review shows us that the operator provides a great sports betting experience, where you can find good value.

At TPP, we praise operators who are fully licenced and properly regulated. Betmaze have flown over that hurdle with ease, as they are licensed and regulated in the UK by the Great Britain Gambling Commission (account number: 39483). The bookie is operated by AG Communications Limited, who are owned by Aspire Global Limited. They are based in Malta, with registration no. C80711.

For responsible gambling, Betmaze ticks all the boxes. However, we feel that this could be more extensive, since the responsible gambling section could be in a more prominent place on the page, and the layout could be more attractive. The bookie has links to BeGambleAware, GamCare and GAMSTOP, they encourage new players to set their deposit limits, and they have tools available to help customers manage their gambling. Nonetheless, a more readable design and a higher profile position on the page would greatly improve things.

Moving on to security, Betmaze UK has the latest 128-bit SSL encryption technology to make sure that data is transferred securely over the internet to their secure server, which is protected by the latest firewall. You can have the greatest of confidence that your personal information is kept confidential and that your funds and financial data is completely secure. Betmaze state on their website that data is not shared with other organisations for commercial purposes.

Betmaze: Fully licenced and well regulated

Chris Sampson: As with any bookie we review, the first question we asked was “is Betmaze legit?” The answer was 100% yes. They hold a licence from the UKGC, they are operated by a reliable company and have watertight security. I would like to see them give more prominence to their responsible gambling section, though.

There were no problems when it came to registering with Betmaze UK. We found the registration process to be straightforward, and you can be signed up and ready to go within minutes. We have produced a step-by-step guide to demonstrate how simple it is.

Betmaze marketing preferences

Select your marketing preferences, accept the terms and conditions and you’re up and running. Remember to opt into the Betmaze sign-up offer.

Betmaze KYC Account Verification

At the time of writing, we have not been asked for any further verification at Betmaze. A name, address, phone number and email have been enough to fulfil the KYC criteria. However, UK bookmakers must adhere to a strict code of conduct, and you may be asked to provide additional documents and information. This type of attention to detail across the industry means that we all have a safer environment for online gambling.

Should you be asked to provide additional documents, the following are accepted at Betmaze UK. Passports and drivers’ licences are accepted for proof of identity. For prof of address, a utility bill or bank statement is required. For source of funds, financial statements and bank statements are needed. For proof of payment, methods payment cards, a screenshot of your e-wallet account or a bank statement showing deposits made to AG Communications (who own and operate Betmaze) are accepted.

Quick and easy sign-up at Betmaze

Chris Sampson: The registration process was quick, efficient and simple at Betmaze. We were betting within 10 minutes.

We bring you all the key information about the Betmaze sign-up offer and promotions aimed at existing customers.

Betmaze Sign-Up Offer

The Betmaze sign-up offer of Bet £20 Get £20 Free Bets gives you a £20 free bet when you deposit and wager £20 at odds of evens or greater. A welcome offer of 100% of your initial stake is in line with many UK bookies and minimum odds of evens for your qualifying bet is decent value. We feel that it is a slightly better offer than BetGoodwin’s Bet £10 and Get £10 as a Free Acca and that it beats Betition’s Bet £15 Get £10. There is no Betmaze bonus code to enter.

However, Betmaze have some way to go before they can match the best sign-up offers in the UK. For example, Coral offers £20 in free bets plus 50 free spins in the casino after you make an initial bet of only £5 with qualifying odds of 1/2 and bet365 have an offer of bet £10 get £30 in free bets with qualifying odds of 1/5.

As far as use of the Betmaze free bets is concerned, there is more freedom compared to some the best UK bookmakers. However, you can’t use the bonus on horse racing and the minimum odds for the free bet is set at 4/5.

Betmaze: Solid welcome offer

Chris Sampson: The Betmaze welcome offer gives value for money and matches or betters many UK new customer offers. However, many of the leading bookies offer more lucrative and flexible sign-up bonuses, so Betmaze have room for development in this area.

Betmaze Other Promotions

Our Betmaze review found that the promotions offered by the bookie provide punters with great value. However, sports offers for existing customers are a little thin on the ground. We have an overview of what is available.

Boosted Odds – Enjoy Greater Value With Enhanced Selections

Betmaze consistently offer odds boosts. There will be a range of bets with enhanced odds available every day, giving you a chance to increase your potential winnings.

Early Payout – Two Goals Up? Your bet is won

When betting on football, if your team goes two goals up you are paid as a winner. There is no need to opt in and there is no extra cost attached. Simply follow the action and rest easy in the knowledge that a rousing comeback cannot stop your wallet getting a boost, should your selected team open a two-goal margin.

Casino Welcome Offer Up to £75 + 50 Spins

To access the Betmaze casino bonus for new customers, you must make a minimum deposit of £20. You then get a 100% matched bonus up to £75 and 50 Spins on Book of Dead. The bonus winnings are capped at £100, while there is a £30 cap on the spins winnings. Remember that there is a x30 wagering requirement on winnings from both the bonus and the spins.

Betmaze VIP and Loyalty Programme

Betmaze UK do not currently offer a VIP programme or any sort of loyalty scheme for sports betting punters.

Value boosting promos at Betmaze, but we would like there to be more

Chris Sampson: Sportsbook promos for existing customers at Betmaze add value to your betting. However, we feel that they could be offering more in terms of offers including acca insurance, Betmaze free bets awarded for loyalty and extra places in big events.

Betmaze have a range of payment options available. There are no fees attached, and deposits come through to your account instantly. Withdrawals can take a little longer than some of the leading UK online bookmakers, and the stated times give Betmaze a little more leeway. However, we found the processing times to be towards the faster end of the timescale given. The process is generally straightforward. However, you need to remember that you will usually need to use the same method to withdraw that was used to deposit. In addition, you will need to deposit via a debit card to be eligible for the new customer bonus.

Smooth Payment Process at Betmaze UK

Chris Sampson: We found deposits and withdrawals to be nice and easy, with the timescales very much in line with what was stated, and, in our experience, towards the faster end.

Betmaze offer a good range of sports to bet on with over 35 available at the time of writing. They have a fantastic mix of traditional and popular sports for betting and more niche sports. With the demand for betting on football being so high, it is no surprise that Betmaze UK have gone big with this in terms of depth and breadth. Horse racing and greyhound racing punters will find a selection of meetings around the world, as well as good coverage of the UK and Ireland. Those looking to bet on tennis, basketball and esports will also find plenty to get stuck into.

The minimum stake at Betmaze is £0.09, while the maximum stake and the maximum payout is not stated and is at the discretion of the operator. This will vary across different sports, competitions and types of bets.

Betmaze Football Betting Coverage

Football is given huge prominence at Betmaze. Domestic football in over 60 countries is covered, as well as international club competitions around the world and international soccer. There are outrights available to bet on in many of the leagues covered, as well as individual matches. Fixtures in prominent competitions, such as the Premier League, the UEFA Champions League and La Liga, have hundreds of betting markets. You can bet pre-match or in-play, and even more niche fixtures give bettors a decent choice of markets.

Betmaze Horse Racing Betting Coverage

Horse racing is another strength of Betmaze. They have competitive odds and have meetings from all over the world, with livestreaming for some meetings. However, they only cover selected meetings from the UK and Ireland, while some of the top horse racing bookies have every race. We would like to see Betmaze be a little more comprehensive in their coverage of UK and Irish racing, increase the amount of livestreaming and introduce Best Odds Guaranteed and Non-Runner No Bet insurance. Another area for development would be to include an ante-post section.

Betmaze Greyhound Racing Betting Coverage

Like the horse racing section, Betmaze UK’s greyhound betting gets a lot right. They boast competitive odds, livestreaming, coverage of meetings in the UK and Ireland, as well as further afield, for example Australia. We would like to see them to extend their UK and Irish coverage to every meeting, include an ante-post section and offer Best Odds Guaranteed to move a very good greyhound platform towards the industry’s elite.

Betmaze Tennis Betting Coverage

Betmaze are challenging the top UK bookies with their tennis coverage. They have outrights for the four Grand Slams available all year round and they give great attention to the other ATP and WTA tournaments. The bookie also goes in-depth with the WTA 125k and the Challenger tours. There are a great range of markets available on standard Challenger tournament match and there is a tennis bet builder available, while the odds are competitive. We feel that some tennis specific promos could further develop this platform.

Betmaze Basketball Betting Coverage

Betmaze UK have great quality and depth to their basketball coverage. Naturally, the NBA takes centre stage, where there are hundreds of markets for each match, including player props. College basketball in the United States is covered thoroughly, and you can get odds on many domestic leagues around the world, as well as international matches and international club tournaments like the Euroleague.

Our Betmaze review discovered that they offer good value betting odds across a range of sports. If bookies are taking a margin under 10% is generally classed as good value. However, to get a true picture of Betmaze’s odds, we pitted them against two of the UK’s best and most established online bookmakers, bet365 and BetVictor.

Taking on bet365 and BetVictor is a big ask, so it is a good achievement for Betmaze to be in the same ballpark for football betting. And while both heavyweights fared better on the tennis and darts matches we looked at, it must be said that Betmaze’s odds were still decent value.

Betmaze offer good depth to their betting markets over a range of sports, giving punters plenty of options, whatever their betting habits. Again, the bigger names will, at this stage, offer greater depth in a greater range of events, but Betmaze are defiantly giving customers a good value experience.

Betmaze: Great value Premier League Odds

Chris Sampson: Betmaze are on the coattails of the industry leaders for the Premier League and are not too far away across the board. A great start for a new bookie.

Betmaze has a few features to enhance your betting journey. We will look in detail at the important tools and features that they offer.

Betmaze Live Betting

Betmaze offer a good range of live betting options. On a standard weekday afternoon, there are between 60 and 80 live events to bet on. The odds are competitive and are quickly updated and you can use the bet builder when making your live picks. There are loads of markets for top football matches, though there is a drop off for lower-profile games. The live section is quick and responsive both on the desktop version of the site and on the Betmaze app.

The updates on the action, graphics and stats are limited. There is also very little livestreaming. Betmaze get a lot right in terms of their in-play platform but there is a way to go before they challenge the industry leaders.

Betmaze Cash Out

Punters at Betmaze can cash their bets out on selected events. Cash out is available for most standard betting markets, allowing you to get out when things are going well and to salvage something when a bet looks like failing. Unfortunately, there is no partial cash out option.

Betmaze Bet Builder

Betmaze’s bet builder is available for a few sports, including football, basketball, American football and tennis. It is easy to navigate and there are plenty of markets available. Like other features on this site, the high-profile matches boast a lot of options, but there is a steep drop off in the range when it comes to more niche games.

Betmaze Additional Betting Tools

Betmaze have some other useful tools to give you more control and flexibility over your betting.

Odds movement is a big factor in betting, and in the last hour or so before an event there can be dramatic shifts. Your betslip on Betmaze has a tool attached that allows you to select your preferences. You can set this to accept higher odds, lower odds, accept odds changes or ask about odds changes. This gives you additional control over your bets.

1-Click Betting allows you to set a stake before adding wagers and confirming your bet with one click. This is useful during in-play betting, where you can spot an opportunity and jump on it immediately.

Betmaze Casino

Our Betmaze casino review found that this vertical gives players a great experience. They have an extensive selection of slots from top providers. Some of the best slots available include 9 Pots of Gold, Big Bass Bonanza, Sugar Rush and Raging Rhino.

Their live casino boasts superb roulette and blackjack. Fireball Roulette, Football Roulette and Power Blackjack are favourites, and the Live Poker section contains several different variations.

The casino has a greater selection of promos for existing customers than the sportsbook. The welcome offer compares well to many other online casinos in the UK, even though it comes with a wagering requirement.

Betmaze has live chat available, however, it is not easy to find, and it is automated at first. It takes a while to reach an advisor. After this, things are dealt with quickly and efficiently. There is also a good bank of FAQs, though this could be presented better. The current set up is quite clunky. Once again, the essentials are there, but we feel that Betmaze could be doing more if they are to challenge the best bookies in the UK.

The Betmaze app is available to download for free for Android and Apple users. We found that the app generally functioned well, and you can access everything that the site offers on the PC version. We found depositing, betting and withdrawing simple and straightforward via the app.
