Intertops Sportsbook Review

Intertops is renowned for accepting the world’s first ever online sports bet, and since launching their website in 1996 today they operate in over 180 countries offering over 4,000 daily wagers for players.

Intertops is licensed and regulated by the authorities in Kahnawake, Canada and the company is based in Antigua and Barbuda. It has very few country restrictions, and none currently worth mentioning in terms of population. The website operates in both English and German

Although it has access to players in the USA, Intertops has a more international approach to its online sportsbook compared to other bookmakers licensed in the USA. Until 2015, Americans had to be invited to register with Intertops but now that process is open for the foreseeable future.

The focus of their sportsbook is on football, tennis, basketball, ice hockey and golf. They also have facilities for live betting, a casino and poker.

This year Intertops confirmed that they are the bar sponsor for the iGB Affiliate Awards, an event that follows a long line of lucrative sponsorships by the bookmaker.

With thousands of followers across social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter and Google+ they have a good presence online.

Betting Markets

Intertops don’t have the most diverse range of sports in their sportsbook, and offer around twenty different categories to choose from, including some more uncommon markets such as athletics, UFC, Poker, Politics and the Stock Market.

Currently there is an obvious lack of a market in E-Sports, and it is something that should be considered due to the exponential growth this industry is seeing. There is also a lack of some obscure sports such as Aussie Rules and Surfing.

Live Betting

Intertops have very sleek and well designed facilities for live betting with options for live-streaming of some sports, good visuals and statistics. Their live streaming facility has been slow to adapt and fails to cover a lot of major sports as well as streams being sometimes jerky and frustrating to watch.

There is currently no option for cash out during a game and this option would only serve to enhance the experience of all players.

Usability of the site

Intertops hasn’t been a leader is this industry for 20 years without offering a well designed, simple service. Their customer support is extremely helpful and they can be contacted over live-chat, Skype, e-mail and phone. On top of this Intertops accept a huge range of deposit options, including less common options like BitCoin and Ecopayz.

The website itself is simple, easy to navigate and doesn’t throw information at you. Instead you are free to discover bets that might interest you, with interesting wagers like teasers, parlays, round robin wagers and half-time and quarter bets. However, the website’s layout and design can at times feel old and out-dated and is need of some renovation. The mobile app is an example of this being is modern, neatly designed and simple to use.

The overall odds in their markets are okay, but not nearly as exciting for players as some other big bookmakers. They do offer promotions throughout the year, but even with this the sportsbook struggles to remain competitive. New players have a sign-up bonus of a $20 free bet and a 200% bonus up to $50, which needs to be rolled over eight times before payout is possible.

Conclusion

Intertops’ slogan, “trust the first,” is an accurate description of their ethos and business. They offer a trustworthy, simple service that is hard to fault. Their attention to customer-service, simple deposits and marketing has made them a good choice.

There is room for more aesthetic improvement, but overall the service is an excellent choice that will remain exciting and competitive for the foreseeable future.
