Welcome Offer 4.5/5

• Excellent welcome offer bonus (T&Cs apply)
• Minimum deposit of 10 GBP
• Maximum stake of 10 GBP on odds of 1/1 or more

LeoVegas offers an excellent welcome bonus, which allows you to win up to 100 GBP in extra winnings on your first Sports Bet as a 100% Profit Boost. This offer applies to bets placed via mobile only.

In order to be eligible, you must deposit a minimum of 10 GBP into your LeoVegas account and claim the Profit Boost via the betting site’s “My Offers” page. You must place a stake on odds of 1/1 or more up to a maximum of 10 GBP, and tick the “Profit Boost” button at the bottom of your bet slip. A stake exceeding the 10 GBP mark will not count.

You must place the qualifying bet within 7 days of making your first deposit.

Payments made via Neteller and Skrill do not qualify for the welcome offer.

Pre-Match Offer 4.5/5

• Odds on over 25 sports
• Minimum stake of 0.1 GBP
• Maximum stake differs from sport to sport
• Excellent in-play section

LeoVegas offers odds on over 25 sports, including the most popular ones like football, tennis, and cricket, among others. Unique sports markets, like bandy, snooker and sumo are also available, so it’s very likely that you’ll find what you’re looking for here, no matter your preferences.

LeoVegas offers its players a wide variety of superb sports betting features, including “Trending Combo”, “Season Bets”, and “Leo Boosts”. “Trending Combo” refers to a set of combinations which are currently trending on LeoVegas, while “Season Bets” refer to bets which run their course throughout an entire sports season. “Leo Boosts” is a section which is dedicated to a selected combination of selections with boosted odds.

Betting sites make a profit through what is known as the bookmaker’s margin, and you should look to place a bet on a betting variant with a margin nearer to the 100% mark. Betting variants with a margin exceeding the 110% mark are not worth punting on. To determine the bookmaker’s margin, you can calculate its Odds Overround.

To determine the Odds Overround for a bet, convert fractional odds into their decimal form, divide each individual outcome of a bet by 100, and add the resulting numbers together. You can determine the bookmaker’s margin for that betting variant via the result.

We worked out the quality of the odds on offer at LeoVegas by calculating the Odds Overround for a match to be contested in the UEFA Champions League. The Odds Overround were found to be, 105.48, which indicates that LeoVegas offers competitive odds and active sports markets.

Esports

LeoVegas offers odds on several popular local and esports international tournaments, with odds available on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2 and League of Legends.

The minimum stake for an Esports market is also 0.1 GBP, while the maximum stake again depends on the odds that you are backing, the esports market that you have chosen, and the number of selections that you have made.

Other Specials

At the time of writing, LeoVegas is offering odds on Politics and TV & Novelty markets.

The minimum and maximum stakes for Specials markets are the same as they are for both spports and esports.

Cash Out and Bet Builder

At the time of writing, LeoVegas is offering its customers both Cash Out and Bet Builder.

Cash Out is an excellent betting feature which allows you to retrieve a placed bet if you feel that things aren’t going your way during an in-play match. The amount of money retrieved depends on the odds in favour and the exact instance of cashing out your placed bet. You could end up winning more than your initially placed stake or less.

Bet Builder, on the other hand, allows you to combine several different selections and outcomes of your choice into one bet. As soon as you create a bet, LeoVegas will give you the odds. In a nutshell, Bet Builder allows a punter to create a bet with an innumerable number of different possibilities.
