Choosing a betting site
How do you rank these sites?
By our editorial rating, a weighted score across prices, trust, markets, payments and app features. Prices are measured from our own stored odds. See the full method.
Are all of these sites licensed?
Every site listed is recorded as holding a Gambling Commission licence. You can check any operator on the Commission's public register at gamblingcommission.gov.uk.
Why are some bookmakers missing price figures?
We only quote a figure once a bookmaker has at least 20 markets we can compare fairly with the others. Below that, the sample is too small to mean anything.
What is the difference between a bookmaker and an exchange?
A bookmaker sets prices and takes your bet. On an exchange you bet against other customers and pay commission on winnings. Exchanges explained.
Should I pick a site by its welcome offer?
An offer is a one-off. Prices, terms and how you get paid affect every bet you place. How to read a welcome offer.
