About TonyBet

The Betsson-owned Tonybet has become one of the most prolific European bookmakers. It all started in 2009 when they established their high-quality sportsbook. Since then, it’s been all uphill. While they may not be a perfect bookie by any means, Tonybet has a prevalently positive reputation amongst the markets it so diligently targets.

From surprisingly capable customer support to a wide range of betting markets, this European bookie is truly a brand you should consider, whether you’re looking to jump ship or if your sports betting journey is only starting.

Tonybet achieved wider notoriety when they became the official betting partner of the Lithuanian men’s national basketball team in 2013. This resulted in an influx of new bettors and by looking at the site’s design - it’s not that hard to see why. Minimalism in today’s web design is often a tricky road, but Tonybet managed to find an ideal way of presenting their offer.

The site is dipped into several shades of gray, some white and some green. All of this creates a clean user interface. Everything is easily reachable and you don’t have to strain your eyes to discern between different markets. There are also highlights of the most popular upcoming events above every other market, so it doesn’t take a lot of time to make an enviable slip.

We’re not quite sure as to why does Tonybet, one of the biggest names in Europe, still not have live chat support. Otherwise, their team of agents features well-trained and polite people who effectively mitigate any inquiry reported via phone or email. They’re also active on Twitter, so don’t hesitate to tweet at them if you have a problem. Due to the 24/7 availability, fast response times and overall great service, we’re not going to hold this against Tonybet too much.

In the payments department, Tonybet is a star bookmaker. We always tend to give a higher grade to brands that offer PayPal transactions and this is true in this situation, as well. Credit and debit cards, Neteller, Skrill and other popular platforms and methods are in place and functional. For the majority of options, there are no waiting times. A job well done.

The overall betting margin is 5.4%. These betting margins have been calculated using odds from different events in each sport. Please note that margins may be different from a sport to another, and even from a league to other.

Betting Features

Just like customer service, odds are another thing Tonybet needs to get better at. We weren’t able to find any event that has odds higher than the industry average. Without any significant deviations from the norm, we can’t really put Tonybet amongst the top names in the game. Still, the overall offer is more than satisfactory, with things like Oscars, politics, music awards and the end of the world to bet on.

Security and Fairness

When it comes to approval from the authorities, Tonybet is king. Due to licenses in Estonia, Lithuania, Denmark and the UK, there is no denying that chances of being scammed on this site are nonexistent. However, we find the lack of public audits and certificates somewhat concerning. Transparency is hard to achieve for every bookmaker, but that’s what it takes to be the best. Tonybet is not quite there yet.
