IOS rates 3.7/5; we could not find a Quickbet app on the UK Google Play store. UK horse racing is not available, though Irish and international meetings are covered, and Best Odds Guaranteed is absent. Smart Boosts automatically apply enhanced racing prices.
BOG applies to UK and Irish horse racing from 8am, with no max benefit cap stated. The iOS app rates 4.7/5, among the highest on this list, and bet365 also tops our ranking of the best betting apps in the UK. Also ranking top among the UK bookmakers for football betting, bet365’s Bet Builder+ is another standout. The in-play interface shows detailed player, in-game, and timeline stats with play-by-play animation for non-livestreaming events.
Unibet provides a solid selection of betting markets, especially for football and racing, and our Unibet review rates its live streaming service as one of the best among UK bookmakers. In our testing, bet365’s app ran without crashes through both scenarios, and its bet builder, cash out and live streaming tools all stayed responsive under peak Premier League load. The catch is that the welcome offer is football-only and tied to specific markets, so punters who prefer wagering on other sports won’t find the £30 in free bets as appealing. It also runs sport-specific promotions, live streaming and in-play betting across its app and website, all of which our Kwiff review covers. Swifty Sports suits mobile-first bettors who prioritise a clean, uncluttered app over promotions or live streaming, and racing punters who’ll use the 10am Best Odds Guaranteed.
This is where, if your player goalscorer or shots-on-target bet gets subbed off, the bet rolls over to the substitute. Newcomers are better off starting on the sportsbook before trying the exchange. Rewards are valid for 30 days from the credit date, which is the longest expiry window among the major UK welcome offers (most run to 7 days).
The QuickBet sign up offer is a £25 free bet when you deposit £10 and place a first bet of £10 or more at odds of 6/4 (2.50) or bigger. Like Ladbrokes, the welcome offer is six £5 free bets for a £5 first bet. The £5 qualifying bet for the welcome offer is one of the lowest here, and the free bets come as six £5 tokens, so you can spread them across several bets. Ladbrokes is one of the oldest names in British betting, and its iOS app is among the best rated on this list at 4.7/5. The Ladbrokes sign up offer is £30 in free bets when you bet £5, credited as 6 x £5 free bets.
It refunds selected goalless draws with its Bore Draw offer and runs 0% margins on certain bets. 7bet covers 35 sports, including esports and table tennis, according to our 7bet review. To get the 7bet sign up offer, new customers must make a first deposit of at least £10 with the applicable bonus code and bet £10. 7bet operates under UKGC licence 48789, with a welcome offer of £30 in bonus bets. If racing or other sports come first for you, the welcome offer is less useful. Betano suits football-first punters who like non gamstop horse racing betting sites Bet Builders and boosted prices, especially on iPhone.
