How We Evaluate Online Sportsbooks
It's always important to remember that what you read on our site is our own opinion. Between everybody working on the site, we have years of sports betting experience and have tried to narrow down what can make or break sportsbooks.
We review sportsbooks based on the following criteria:
- Sportsbook Bonus Offers - Most sites offer users some sort of sign up bonus as an incentive to choose their site over the competition. Does this sportsbooks bonus offer provide you with real value?
- Betting Variety - Of course, we expect to be able to bet on your basic spreads, moneylines, and over/unders for major leagues. But what kind of parlay options are available? Is there an online casino included in the sportsbook? How is the live betting experience?
- Mobile Sportsbook Experience - Most sports betting sites have an app companion these days. It's 2024, of course! But whether or not the proper amount of TLC has been put into a sports betting app can be the difference between an average and elite sportsbook.
- Betting Experience - When you're using a sportsbook, how does it feel? Is there any lag when switching between pages? Does everything look neat and organized? These features may seem small but they add up if you're going to be using a sportsbook on a regular basis.
- Payment Options - Common payment options for sportsbooks include credit cards, bank transfers, and PayPal. But how many payment options are supported and how long each method takes for payouts and deposits is crucial element of the user experience.
- Customer Support - Even if it doesn't rain it doesn't hurt to have an umbrella in your trunk, does it? Hopefully, you won't ever need to contact customer support, but for the times that you do, it's good to know the sportsbook is prepared to help you solve your issues
Where can I use an Online Sportsbook in the US?
Since the overturn of PASPA in 2018, it has been incumbent on states to decide for themselves if legalizing online sports betting would be wise for their citizens.
This has led to the fractured states of sports betting in the US, where legal online sports betting laws can vary wildly from state to state. Right now, over twenty states have fully legalized online sports betting.
What Online Sportsbooks are available in my state?
“The best ability is availability.” - Hall of Fame NFL Coach Bill Parcells
This is true of both football players and sportsbooks. With the slow rollout of online sports betting from state to state, the variance between sportsbook selection is high.
That is why the first element you must consider when choosing a sportsbook is whether or not it is available in your state. Luckily we’ve made a helpful guide displaying what sports betting sites are available in each state with online gambling and included the state availability in our reviews of each sportsbook.

Best Online Sportsbook Bonuses
Most sportsbooks offer sign up bonuses to new users as a way to attract new customers. There are many different types of bonuses offered by these sites. They can include deposit bonuses, free bets with no deposit necessary, and refunded bets in on-site credits if a user's initial wager loses.
This is a great feature for new users and sharps alike. Newbies can get used to how betting works in a low-risk environment, while veteran bettors get the opportunity to test out various books if their current provider isn’t satisfying their needs.
Even if you're happy with your sportsbook, you should always be on the lookout for more sportsbook bonuses, especially around major events. Sportsbooks always supply a ton of betting offers for the Super Bowl, World Cup, and March Madness, for example.
I know that I've been guilty of setting up accounts across different bookmakers just to take advantage of their sign up offer from time to time!
Here we’ve compared all of them to assess which offers you the highest value.

Online Sportsbook Promotions
Many sportsbooks, like FanDuel, offer you and your friend a bonus bet if they sign up using your referral link
All of these sign-up offers are great, but here at Sportsbooks Online, we don't want to set you up with a temporary betting site. We want to ensure you find the right sportsbook for the long haul.
Every sportsbook wants to get you in the door, but we want to find one that fits your needs for more than just the first bonus bet or deposit bonus. One way a betting site can keep customers happy is through existing customer promotions.
Existing Customer Promotions are a great way to continue receiving value from a sportsbook after you've signed up
These promotions can include odds boosts, parlay insurance, or bonus bets.
These offers are sometimes determined by the sportsbook's partnerships with specific teams or leagues, or actions the user has to take themselves, such as completing their first live bet or referring a friend.
In any case, these promotions ensure that you will continue to receive great value for the length of your sports betting life.
Sportsbook Existing Customer Bonus Bets
- DraftKings Sportsbook - Daily free-to-play pools
- Caesars Sportsbook - $100 in bonus bets for referrals
- BetMGM - Up to $2,000 in referral bonuses per month
- Unibet - Weekly bonus bets for regular players
- FanDuel Sportsbook - Referral bonus for sportsbook & casino
Betting Variety: What Sportsbooks have the most types of bets?
Variety is the spice of life, isn’t it? Variety is also a determining factor when picking a sportsbook.
Betting Markets Available
Of course, most betting sites are going to offer you popular sports. Giving you the option of betting on the NFL or NBA isn’t exactly breaking new ground, but offering Esports, virtual games, and casino options can make a book stand out from the crowd.
Types of Bets Available
What you bet on is important, but so is how you bet. Most sites offer live betting, futures, player props, and the like. What we look for in this category are unique betting options. Do books offer bet-builders for soccer games? What about single-game parlays for the NBA?
These options are getting more and more popular, so we think it’s crucial that sites offer them to users.
Best Online Sportsbook with Betting Variety
DraftKings
DraftKings stands out in this category for all the ways it allows you to play. From a top-notch sports betting experience, to a great daily fantasy platform, free-to-play pools, and even an online casino, DraftKings has got all kings of players covered

Live Betting Sportsbooks
Ever watch a game just knowing in your heart that a team was about to blow a big lead? There’s no way the Texans will be able to hold off the Chiefs’ offense for the entire second half, right? Well, one way to capitalize on this gut instinct is live betting.
Live betting sites allow users to place wagers with updated odds while an event is ongoing. Most sportsbooks offer live betting, but there is a high variance between the average site and those that aim for pristine live experiences.
Maybe the most exhilarating way to wager, live betting is a massive part of the online sports betting market.
Best Sportsbook for Live Betting
Bet365 Live Betting
$1,000 First Bet Safety Net
In our opinion, Bet365 is offering users the dominant live betting experience.
One unique aspect in the American market is Bet365 live streaming. As long as you have a positive balance on your account or have placed a bet in the last 24 hours Bet365 allows users to stream select NHL games, among other events. Combine this with constantly updating odds and live tracking stats and it is clear that Bet365 is head-and-shoulders above the competition.
NFL & College Football Sportsbooks
It's no coincidence that America's game is also America's favorite betting pastime. Whether it's an office suicide pool, fantasy football league, or making outrageous parlays every weekend - making the weekend more interesting enriches your football fandom. This means that many sportsbooks specialize in football betting.
Online sportsbooks are becoming more accepted and even embraced by leagues. After years of lobbying against the legalization of sports betting, the NFL has several official betting partners including Caesars Sportsbook, DraftKings Sportsbook, and FanDuel Sportsbook. Most teams have their own partners as well. Unibet has deals in place on either side of Pennsylvania, with the Steelers and the Eagles. BetMGM is soaring with the Ravens in Baltimore. The Monsters of the Midway in Chicago have teamed up with BetRivers as their official sports betting partner.
DraftKings' shared wallet between fantasy and sports betting accounts make it one of the best sportsbooks for football betting in the US
For college football bettors, there's even been some acceptance at the NCAA level. This has changed and the new level of acceptance. can only lead to good things for bettors.
More mainstream betting has lead to more states legalizing sports betting and partnerships lend themselves to generous sportsbook bonuses and promotional bets for teams on their betting platforms. Many sportsbooks even offer NFL bonus bets to try and get more players to bet on America's game!

Best Online Sportsbooks for Payouts & Deposits
Sports betting sites should strive to make it as easy and simple as possible for users to deposit and withdraw their cash. Users also need to be able to trust that their money is being handled with the care it deserves.
The top betting sites usually offer the most popular sportsbook payment options such as PayPal, credit/debit card, and bank transfers. However, it should be noted that some sites allow differing options for deposits and withdrawals, so take note to see if your sportsbook has your preferred payment method for both actions.
