At Dafabet you will have the option of selecting Fractional or Decimal odds. A brief explanation about these different types of odds format is explained below. Fractional odds, so lets take a price which is odds on, which might be 1/4 or one quarter. So If you place a bet on of one pound, you will receive back your one pound stake plus one quarter, so a total of £1.25 Decimal odds are quite straightforward to understand, as all you need to do is take the decimal number, lets say 7.0 and deduct 1 which would give you odds of 6/1.

Betting limits

At Dafabet there are certain betting limits in place. The minimum deposit amount is £10 The maximum daily withdrawal amount is unlimited on cards but has a limit of £60,000 on Skrill and £31,000 on Neteller. Maximum win amount on any one days betting is £100,000.

Sport coverage

Dafabet currently have 23 different sports that you can place a bet on

In-play experience

The Dafabet live offer includes in-play and events coming soon The interface for live betting is again very straightforward and easy to use.

Live streaming

Dafabet does not currently supply live streaming of events, however this is planned.

The site at Dafabet is very fast loading and is one of the nicest looking sites we have reviewed. The colour scheme is a mixture of light and dark grey with the font colour being an iron grey colour. This is mixed with dark red/wine colour menus and headings to give it a look of quality but more importantly all content is easily read and odds stand out very clearly.

The set up of the page is very good with a top banner where you login or register as a new Dafabet customer. Below this is the main product menu and on the left we have the traditional sports menu. The right side contains the bet slip and some promotional banners.

Users should take note of the left side menu as it contains 3 sections.

Highlights – Which gives an overview of upcoming events across all sports Football Coupons – As it would suggest focuses on all live and upcoming football in the major European leagues
Sports – Which contains all of the sports that a user can bet on.

The help and FAQ section can be found on a dark black ribbon at the bottom of the page along with clear links to betting help and information on the various payment methods available.

Although Dafabet have a very competitive overall betting margin of 4.9%, that does not really give the full picture.

The excellent overall margin is made up by having very competitive odds on US Sports.

Basketball betting strategy at 3.1%, Ice Hockey at 3.8%, Baseball at 4% and American Football at 4.5% are some of the best odds on the market. So if you are a fan and punter on American sports the Dafabet is a great bookmaker as an option, however, if we look at the main Uk betting sport of football then the margin is a very poor 7.4%. This is one of the highest and most uncompetitive margins on football we have reviewed.

Dafabet has football as one of it’s main markets and currently offers over 100 leagues to bet on which covers 90 leagues worldwide as well as betting on 11 groups/markets from the forthcoming FIFA World Cup.

Looking at the major European leagues you will often find around 40 – 50 markets on each game which is not as strong as some of the bigger brand sportsbooks. Dafabet do have some quite unique markets though, so well worth taking a look at that part of the site.

The In-play interface is very easy to use and one of the best we have reviewed. The colour scheme is the samme as the main site but the full listing of matches is very uncluttered. In the main view you will have the current score, the teams playing, the odds for 1X2. It is that simple.

When you open up an individual game you are greeted with Match stats and scores in big bold white text on a dark black background and then under this you have all the various In-play markets.

Odds are white text on a dark red background which makes them stand out very clearly and all odds boxes are big and bold which makes the In-play part of the site visually appealing.

Dafabet is very football focused so most of the promotions and bonuses revolve around football betting.

Welcome Offer – Get a free bet up to £/€30 if your first bet does not win.

Acca Free Bet – Place a six selection football accumulator bet. If one selection loses, then they will refund your stake up to £/€30 as a free bet.

Second Goalscorer – If your 1st goal scorer fails to score the 1st but gets the 2nd goal, we shall match your stake up to £/€50 as a free bet.

Goaless Draw – Place abet on the FT correct score and/or HT/FT and get a free bet up to £/€50 oevery time the match ends in a scoreless draw (0-0).

Dafabet also offer Best Odds Guaranteed on all UK and Irish horse racing.

Dafabet provide a good selection of deposit and withdrawal methods with the main cards and e-wallets available on the site.

For card payments you can use VISA, Visa Electron, Mastercard and Maestro and for e-wallets you can use Skrill and Neteller. The only thing with card withdrawals is that the can take up to 5 days, whereas e-wallet withdrawals are processed within an hour.

The customer support and live chat was very good with a question we had relating to the World Cup. Very quick response and a knowledgeable agent.
