About Retabet

Every once in a while, we come across bookmakers that are based on excellent ideas and visions. It’s often a shame to encounter such examples, as it’s difficult to see proper concepts ruined by bad execution. When it comes to Spanish bookies, Retabet might be the site that fits this bill better than any other brand.

At moments, they’re compelling, especially visually, but the whole puzzle doesn’t seem like a cohesive piece. Due to the many flaws we encountered, we can’t really recommend Retabet as a valid option for your sports betting needs. However, it might be a good solution for beginners.

Even though a great design is by no means a guarantee that the bookmaker is great, too, it’s usually an indicator of a proper brand vision. Retabet seems to fit the bill of such a quality, but it’s hard not to see that the whole concept is undeveloped for the most part. And this saddens us, as this is probably one of the sites that we found so easy to navigate, a chimpanzee could do it.

Smooth, round edges, and carefully placed sharp corners both contribute to the unique aesthetic of Retabet.es. Lime green and black are the only colors used, but even they are used in minimalistic fashion. Only sporadic accents and key writing are marked in order to stand out from the whiteness of the background.

If you’ve been reading our bookmaker review, you know how much we hate bright colors covering the majority of the site. Retabet counters the negative effects of whiteness by effectively spreading all the content. Square-shaped banners are also a great touch. They don’t take up too much space and are a great combination with the white background.

Unfortunately, everything starts falling down a cliff after the great UI. It’s great that they offer support via live chat, but we found the software incredibly buggy. Even if we didn’t see a million different errors, agents took ages to reply.

We tried asking them various questions, and they just provided us with scripted answers and advice. They may be good for basic things, but are unreliable for large scale issues.

The banking section is pitiful as well, as only physical payments, VISA, MasterCard, and Retabet Card are available as payment methods. They didn’t just pick the two most archaic options out there, but they’re also forcing people to sign up for cards or visit their betting shops. That’s an F from us.

Betting Features

In terms of sports offered, Retabet is not half bad. You can find some niche sports, too, but don’t expect overly lucrative odds. Live bets are always plentiful, but even some less-coveted matches in big leagues lack the desired amount of special bets. If Retabet makes some improvements, they still might have a bright future.
