Top 10 bookmakers

The Betcity website provides comprehensive legal information, the company is licensed by the Federal Tax Service of Russia, has not been seen in any blacklist and is deservedly considered a reliable operator of betting services. She accepts sports betting both online and at any of the 150 land-based points. Although not the main, but an important advantage of the portal is a simple web interface that allows you to almost instantly find and put in the desired position. You can register without leaving your home. Deposits are credited instantly, which also contributes to the efficiency of the betting process. The line features more than 20 sports with a high variability of painting.

Undoubtedly, Betsity could take a higher place in the ranking, but its reputation is spoiled by reviews of returns on winning rates and a maximum limit of 10 rubles, while not responding to all requests in a timely manner. But in favor of the bookmaker is the fact that the players withdraw their hard-earned and won money without any problems. The odds are not the best, but they suit the majority, especially in comparison with other offices. To sum up, although the company has room for development, it is quite suitable for successful online betting.

Leon has been present on the betting market relatively recently, since 2011, but has managed to gain a reputation as the best service for those who have just started playing sports betting.Professionals, judging by their reviews, consider the presented line to be average (although this does not apply to football), and the odds are low, but they note the speed of calculations, convenient placement of bets via smartphones and the hassle-free withdrawal of funds won. In addition to cash bonuses, there are motivational prizes - the opportunity to win a T-shirt, a ball or a calendar autographed by an athlete known throughout the world.

In general, even after a long period of use, the bookmaker leaves bettors with a positive impression. Difficulties can only be caused by the verification procedure - although it takes place online, it requires a lot of identity documents. We didn’t find any complaints about problems with withdrawing money, they don’t cheat with bonuses, it’s very easy to bet on an event, desktop applications work perfectly, without bugs and freezes – we think Leon has earned its place in the top ten most reliable bookmakers in Russia.

When it comes to hundreds and thousands, live feedback from the bookmaker for a player who has fallen into a freelance situation is of great importance. Apparently, Pari Match understands this very well, since it has created one of the best customer support services. You can contact a representative of the company through any channel - mail, chat, call, while the appeal is almost instantly answered. The standard service does not lag behind in terms of level: accepting bets does not close prematurely, “maximum” rates are available for all matches, many interesting promotions are provided, there are welcome bonuses, deposit doubling, insurance, prediction contests, etc.

More importantly, the bookmaker tried to create optimal conditions for making informed decisions: a large list of video broadcasts, a results section with infographics and statistics allow you to analyze the situation and immediately place a bet. Yes, there is some negative feedback, but we got the impression that it comes from novice bettors who do not understand the rules. By the way, another plus in the portal's piggy bank is a simple and understandable description of the regulations, indicating important points in the first positions.

At the international exhibition-forum Russian Gaming Week, the bookmaker's office "Winline" won twice in the "Best Product of the Year" nomination - in 2015 and 2016. The company operates in the legal field of the Russian Federation, has a license, is a member of a self-regulatory organization (SRO) of bookmakers, conducts all settlements with bettors through an independent center TsUPIS and thus guarantees all players without exception a reliable and fair game. The site offers to replenish the account in rubles through banking and electronic payment services, as well as through mobile operators, while the withdrawal is carried out only through payment systems.

The mural line (i.e. the list of betting offers) features about 20 sports with a varied selection of tournaments and championships. The minimum bet is 50 rubles. A nice feature is to watch two video broadcasts at the same time. To participate in the game, you need to spend a few minutes registering and going through verification - a huge plus that this can be done via video link through popular instant messengers.Each client automatically becomes a member of the loyalty program, in which they are awarded bonuses for each bet. In the reviews, the bookmaker is called one of the most loyal and they ask only to slightly increase the odds.

The international organization Betfair offers to bet on sports on the basis of a bookmaker's office or a betting exchange. An alternative option involves betting between the players themselves, so there is no margin here. Limiting bets and maximum winnings is not practiced, and the exchange is actively used by betting professionals. The company has been operating all over the world since 1999, has gaming licenses in 8 countries of the world, practically does not receive complaints about its activities, which has earned it a reputation as a loyal and reliable platform for professionals.

On the stock exchange and on the bookmaker, there is a wide line and painting, the odds are above average. Betfire also offers an extensive list of services - casinos, slot machines, betting on virtual sports, poker, etc. There are no welcome bonuses, but players can participate in draws and receive cashback under certain conditions. The service provides a Russian-language version of the site, but in Russia it is blocked due to the illegal position of the company. Accordingly, telephone technical support is available only in English, while in Russian you can write an e-mail - according to reviews, you need to wait 1-2 days for a response.

A clear idea of ​​how reliable a bookmaker is can be obtained from reviews.In the case of Olimp, the user rating based on 200 ratings is 3.8 points and is considered quite high by all criteria. In particular, the players speak positively about the skillfully organized interface, extensive pre-match and live list (up to 800 picks for top events), acceptable margin - 5% and 10% on average. There are no significant problems with receiving the won funds; you can withdraw through the usual payment systems and to the account of most mobile operators. There is no commission for withdrawal from the bookmaker, however, according to the requirements of the Tax Code of Russia, it must withhold tax in the amount of 13% of the amount won.

After studying the site and the list of comments, we can conclude that bets are accepted quickly and without changing the value of the odds, the company does not sin with unreasonable sanctions such as lowering highs and returning winning bets, and bets with erroneous odds are calculated according to market indicators. There are native applications for Android and iOS, but some users are unhappy with their usability. In general, this bookmaker gives the impression of a reliable participant in the gambling market with a conscientious attitude towards accounts created on its platform.

One of the largest bookmakers in the world, 1xbet accepts bets both online and through an extensive network of 750 reception points operating throughout Russia. In addition, its facilities are successfully operating in more than 50 countries - a complete list is available on the official website. With almost 12 years of successful existence, the company proves that it is a "long-playing" brand.It sponsors big-time sports teams and events, invests considerable resources in the development of e-sports, and cooperates with world-class athletes. So, the famous football player Andre Pirlo, named the best midfielder in the world, became its ambassador in 2018.

However, reviews about the service are quite contradictory. On the one hand, some players doubt the reputation of the bookmaker, since he is not a member of the TsUPIS and is legally considered illegal in the territory of the Russian Federation. Other bettors refer to him as the most promising in terms of earnings. They like simple registration conditions, the widest rate line, a universal interface with the possibility of individual customization, and a high level of technical support. Unprecedented conditions are provided for replenishing a deposit (more than 180 ways) and withdrawing funds won (more than 100 ways), bonuses are actively offered - welcome, birthday, for installing an application, etc.

The Liga Stavok bookmaker is known as a partner of the largest sports organizations in Russia. A solid age (registered in 2007), the presence of an official license, a conscientious attitude to payments and a good reputation in gaming communities indicate the high reliability of the bookmaker. Both novice players and professionals resort to his services. Beginners who have registered and been identified are offered a free bet (bonus) in the amount of 555 rubles, which, in the case of two unplayed bets, is re-charged twice more. Bettors, confident in their abilities and ready to make a millionth bet, receive a much more serious bonus - 10,000 rubles.

Other positive aspects of the "League" are the simplicity and convenience of the interface in a personal account, an acceptable (no worse, and no better than other bookmakers) level of odds, high (up to 6 hours) speed of payments to a bank card, a competent support service for round-the-clock dealing with emergencies via chat, email or phone call. Relative shortcomings include only the need for identification through a personal visit to the betting shop (PPS) - the usual online registration is not enough. However, the company is working to expand the PPP network and promises that other identity verification options will appear in the near future.

In Moscow, the first Fonbet sports betting point appeared in 1994, and today the list of betting shops includes more than 1,000 points throughout the country, which is the undisputed leader. It is not surprising that the bookmaker values ​​​​its reputation and constantly improves its own service. So, since 2014, the company's customers can resort to betting terminals and get access to their own account without waiting in line. In addition, you can place a bet through a convenient application for iOS, macOS and Android. Beginners should take a closer look at promotions - they often offer solid bonuses and free bets for regular registration or simple tasks.

Judging by the numerous reviews, the winnings are paid out on time, without cutting odds, freezes and bugs. There are some complaints about the support service, they say, they do not answer for a long time or react with standard unsubscribes.Nevertheless, the claims we noticed were satisfied by the company and subsequently removed with a corresponding revaluation. Thus, there is every reason to consider this bookmaker as a reliable and legal organization with great potential for beginners and experienced players.

In almost all ratings, Marathon consistently occupies high positions with a score of 4 on a 5-point system. Among the positive aspects are a large number of events in various sports and e-sports, in addition, the bookmaker allows you to bet on cultural and political shows, chess tournaments, dog racing, etc. All kinds of development options are presented, many combination bets, bets on statistics and on the participants of the competition. At the same time, the margin, that is, the net earnings of the betting portal, is considered one of the most loyal to the players: an average of 2.5% in the pre-match and 8% in the live line (for football). True, in recent years the percentage has begun to rise slowly.

Another feature of the bookmaker's office is accepting bets only online - the company at the moment almost does not develop a network of land-based points. Registration and identity verification required to withdraw money also take place on the Internet and take, according to reviews, 15-20 minutes (provided that there is a registered KIWI wallet). The service does not offer welcome bonuses, but it has a unique loyalty program.It takes into account all bets on sports in the amount of at least 500 rubles, after which points are awarded that can be spent on replenishing the game account, obtaining the right to a free bet or participating in a special campaign.
