BetRivers Sportsbook Review

Read on for a full report on the BetRiver sportsbook offering, updated for their 2020 site.

BetRivers Sportsbook Review: Sports and markets available

BetRivers has put together a very respectable sportsbook as it stands in 2020, with many major leagues covered. They offer betting markets for college football, NBA games, NFL, tennis, UFC, baseball, and many other popular sports. For the more major leagues like the NBA and NFL, they regularly have more than 100 markets for you to bet on. All of the markets that you see on the desktop site can be accessed via the mobile app too, which is good to see.

Casino

Sports betting aside, BetRivers has a truly extensive casino gaming section too. There is no need to open a separate account for this, and the range of casino games is quite good. They have table games like roulette and blackjack, slot games including progressives, virtual sports betting, as well as bingo and keno games.

Odds & Limits

Although they have a good range of sports and markets, the odds are generally floating around the market average. This means that you aren’t being shortchanged, but you aren’t exactly receiving enormous value either. To place any sports bets before the game has started, BetRivers has quite a low minimum, as you can do this for just $1.

Like other betting sites in the USA, this minimum drops for in-play markets. Instead of the $1 minimum, you can make a bet for as low as $0.20, and they even have pre-set amounts so that you can place your bets quicker than usual.

The only restrictions that we’ve seen on sports bets are the number of games you can actually combine into a parlay bet. BetRivers appears to cap this at 15 total teams, which is no doubt an effort to prevent enormous payouts from any single bet.

BetRivers Sportsbook Review: Additional Features

User Experience

At first glance, the BetRivers sportsbook may seem overcrowded and somewhat difficult to filter through. However, after spending a few minutes getting familiar with the platform, it’s actually quite easy to use, despite the dynamic features and various unique sections. The only thing we’d change is reducing the amount of scrolling necessary to find certain sports.

In-play betting

How to place in-play bets

By clicking on the ‘live and upcoming’ link in the sportsbook, you will find all the markets that are currently taking place. You have the added luxury of being able to search for a team or player, filter by leagues, and even filter by sport. There are hundreds of in-play markets on a daily basis, so it’s fair to say that BetRivers has this covered.

Live streaming

BetRivers has a variety of streaming options on their platform, as members can watch events for tennis, baseball, basketball, college football, and several others. They don’t cover all games in these categories, but the streams are of reasonable quality, and they are available from the app.

Mobile App

You can download the BetRivers mobile app from the mobile site for Android, and from the App Store for iOS devices. From the mobile app, you can access live markets, jackpot parlays, live streaming, and the best part – not a single sport has been left out from the mobile app.

Best Features

  • Jackpot parlay

There are jackpot parlays on offer for those that strike it lucky with a multiples bet, which can be found directly from the sportsbook.

  • Instant markets

Instant markets are where you can make an in-play bet that will settle within minutes, and it’s a super exciting environment with a lot happening!

  • Mobile betting

There’s a fully functional mobile app to use as well as a respectable mobile site, which covers the base for on-the-go sports betting.

  • Live streaming

BetRivers Sportsbook Review – Adequate and Exciting

The BetRivers sportsbook may not be as extensive as other platforms that we’ve seen, but it is certainly one of the most dynamic and fast-paced platforms we’ve seen. They have plenty of unique features such as a running tally of sports bets that have been won, jackpot parlay bets on offer, live streams, as well as instant markets for the in-play bets.

The majority of these features have been rolled up into a well developed mobile app too, so we’d definitely suggest giving them a try.
