Reviewer's notes

What it holds

Betway's strength is its layout. Menus follow a logical order and the account pages are easy to manage. Sports coverage is narrower than William Hill's, with live betting and streams on the key events.

Paying in and out

6 payment methods, cards and PayPal among them. The qualifying £10 deposit has to go through a debit card.

The welcome, read closely

Bet £10 at odds of 2.0 or more and receive 4 free bet tokens of £10: 2 for Bet Builders and 2 for accumulators. They stay valid for 30 days, against the 7 William Hill allows.

Best suited to

Bettors who want a clean screen and a welcome with time to use it. UK readers used to UKGC regulation should note that the licence Betway lists is from Malta.
