About Bodog.eu

In recent years, the sports betting industry has hit a plateau of sorts. As time passes, we can only innovate so much and there aren’t as many groundbreaking additions to sportsbooks as there were before. When you compare today’s state to what existed in 2005, the picture is entirely different.

Instead of inventing things, bookmakers are now focused on usability and making everything more accessible to the player. Bodog.eu is no exception. They are an established name and, so far, they’ve managed to obtain quite the customer base due to having a site that’s easy to navigate on. But is this enough to consider them seriously? Let’s take a closer look and find out.

It’s often said that customer support is the best indicator of a company’s success, so we’re willing to test this notion with Bodog.eu being the example. Everything seemed fine from the get-go. They offer support to players via email, phone and live chat, while the availability is 24/7. We’ve posed a myriad of questions related to different problems and they’ve always responded to emails in 3 hours or less, depending on the time when we’ve sent the initial inquiry. Agents are well-trained and always seem willing to tackle the conundrum that you’re dealing with.

Banking is not the strong side of this bookmaker, but we can at least cuck them some slack because they’re catered towards Canadian bettors. You can deposit and withdraw money via VISA, MasterCard, Bitcoin and Interac e-Transfer. This is definitely an interesting choice, the type of which we don’t see in many modern bookmakers. Instead of stockpiling various niche payment platforms, Bodog.eu took care of the most popular options. The presence of Bitcoin is also encouraging, given the changing preferences of players.

The design of their website puzzles us for a bit. In terms of UI in a vacuum, it’s very easy to navigate through the various sections, markets and options. However, we feel like this bookie is held back by the rather monotonous black-grey-red color scheme. This has been a popular trend with many online sportsbooks, but it’s rather bland and doesn’t contribute to visibility, especially if the background is darker. Not bad or annoying - we think that they just need a rebrand.

Betting Features

The sportsbook at Bodog.eu is an incredibly organized one, with the top markets being highlighted in a way that effectively showcases them but doesn’t overshadow other content on the page. You can choose whether your odds will be shown in fractals, decimals or in the American format. Both the width and depth of the total offer are impressive, with eSports taking home the crown.

Security and Fairness

In this department, Bodog.eu is not half bad. They hold a license in Antigua, which is issued by the Antigua and Barbuda Financial Services Regulatory Commission. There haven’t been any major complaints related to this bookie and we had an overall smooth experience. We would definitely recommend them to bettors of all experience levels.
