With more than 15 years of experience, the Matchbook Betting Exchange started in North America, but in 2011 the company was acquired by UK investors and withdrew from the US market. The website is renewed, making the navigation very simple. It provides some of the best betting exchange services, alongside thousands of football, horse racing, and tennis markets daily.

The Matchbook exchange does not operate as a traditional bookie. Instead, it acts as the middle man so bettors can place wagers against each other rather than the house. There are players who back (buy) a market and those that lay (sell) the same one. Both sides have to agree on the odds to lock the bet. The betting site makes money by charging a commission on wagers. It solely applies to winning bets and is 2% in the UK and Ireland, while all other countries have to pay 4%.

The pre-match section in Matchbook.com comes with more than a dozen sports, ranging from football and horse racing to motorsports and politics. There are more than 30 markets in football, including Correct Score and multiple Asian Handicaps but not Cards or Corners. Horse and greyhound bettors can only find Antepost, Win, and Place options. In tennis, you can wager, among others, on Alternative Handicaps and Total Sets or Games.

The Matchbook exchange offers more than 5,000 events monthly, but there are fewer sports and markets available since the liquidity is not too high. In football, players can bet on Half Time Totals and Asian Handicaps, while in tennis on Next Set Winner and Totals. The bookmaker provides some betting features as well. Cash Out can be used only in Full until late in an event, and there is an indication for which matches you can use it. Live Streaming is available for greyhound racing as long as you have placed a minimum bet on the race.

Online betting sites also tend to other areas to improve the user experience. Our Matchbook exchange review revealed that it is easy to place a wager with a smartphone, and there are even mobile apps for Android and iOS. You contact customer support in English, via email, Live Chat, or phone, from 9 am to 10 pm from Monday till Thursday and until midnight the other days. Players can perform transactions with VISA, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, and Paysafecard. The winning limits are high; you can earn up to €250,000 on the top sports.
