Fonbet Review

Pre-Match Betting and Sports

Fonbet has a solid payout of 95.50% on primary football events and will surely surprise you with the wide variety of sports and markets. You can find over 30 different sports, e-sports, and virtual competitions like football, basketball, and hockey. 

Soccer offers alternative selections, detailed player stats, and combo bets, making the bookie a favorite destination for wagering on European leagues. As one of the earliest sponsors, it still gives unbeatable markets among the Spanish Copa del Rey betting sites.

Basketball has good coverage for the Euroleague, Eurocup, ABA, and other Asian and African competitions. The NBA takes the candle with the abundant player props, but all other leagues feature a heavy load of team bets, totals, and spreads. The margin is less than 5%, even on secondary matches and wagers. 

Tennis has up to 170 lines you can stake on before the game begins, with bets like totals, handicaps and specials given at 94.50% for the ATP, WTA, ITF, and Grand Slams. 

Still, our favorite pre-game wagers have to be on ice hockey. You can find rare player bets on the NHL, international competitions, and even local German matches with high payouts. The sportsbook offers period betting and special combos for BTTS, which is difficult to beat.

Live Wagering Section

The in-play options are equally satisfying, as we spotted steady odds across the given sports. The highest vig reached 8% on secondary bets late in the game. You can find Team Over/Under in football on a Division 2 game in Australia at 92%. The same applies to sports like hockey and volleyball. 

Soccer has a massive number of markets with player and combo stakes still active in stoppage time. The bookmaker covers major and minor leagues alike, and you can expect fast updates and live streaming on short football and 60-minute games. 

You can catch in-game basketball all day, thanks to the global scope of covering the sport. Fonbet offers updated lines on half and quarter bets from the Chinese Development League to the South American clashes. The payout ranges between 93% and 94.5%, depending on the stake you choose.

At the beginning of a tennis match-up, the live section has the same number of markets as pre-game, at around 170 for Grand Slams. The odds remain high, too, but boosted prices can be given on higher handicaps and unlikely outcomes. For example, a +/- 4.5 spread is sometimes offered at 93.5%, while the +/- 1.5 of the same bet is at 92%. 

Sportsbook Features

Fonbet runs a slick platform that provides most of the basic tools a bettor needs. Live streaming is of good quality, and Cash Out can be used to skim on changing odds. Note that the latter function is offered in full mode only. 

The Betslip is responsive and has the 1-click bet feature, which you can toggle and preset. The minimum and maximum limits are always displayed, and the bet acceptance takes less than 4 seconds. The lack of Bet Builder is compensated by many combo bets. 

The design might be a bit old school, but it is simple. There is no Multi View or Asian View, limiting the customization of your betting experience. You can still configure the interface from Settings for compact and expanded display.

Lastly, the international website doesn’t have many localizations besides English and German. However, you can set the odds in all six formats, including Malay, Hong Kong, and Indonesian. 

Payments and Services

The operator accepts card payments, direct and open bank transfers, and cryptocurrencies. At the time of writing, we found no e-wallet options like Skrill and Jeton. Players joining from outside the EU have to consider that the available currencies, besides crypto, are USD and EUR.

The winning limits are €500,000, and no maximum withdrawal is specified. Of course, large amounts can require further AML and KYC procedures before proceeding. The bookie reserves up to 3 days to authorize requests, but you can expect withdrawals to be much faster.

Live Agents are available to answer your queries 24/7. You can contact them through Live Chat, Telegram, or email if you are facing difficulties, such as claiming the Fonbet Bonus. Otherwise, you can contact the Curacao gaming authorities if a dispute arises with the operator.

Finally, you can download the Fonbet app for iOS and Android from the bookmaker’s website. It will come in handy when betting on the go or while traveling, as it could bypass possible restrictions.
