COMPANY OPERATIONS
After receiving their bookmakers license for Britain, Betsson was launched simultaneously in Sweden and Britain. They were one of the original sites to offer live in-play wagering on many of their events and the success was quickly apparent. 2003 saw Betsson launch its online casino as well as debuting Czech and Finnish versions of their increasingly popular sportsbook.
Betsson partnered with Swedish powerhouses OnGame to assist in the launch of their Poker Site and the results have been outstanding. They are also one of the few online wagering companies to offer a specifically-branded Turkish Poker site. After expanding their site to Spain, Italy, France and Greece Betsson quickly grew into one of Europe's most popular and complete online wagering experiences. They offer one of the most diverse ranges of wagering options with the action spread across 8 different sites. If you like to gamble, you'll find what you're looking for in the Betsson universe.
OPINION
Betsson is a site oriented towards continental sports with a specific focus on football wagering. You won't find UK horses or greyhounds here, but you will find a very slick site that is much more modern-looking than the competition, as well as some solid odds on a lot of non-traditional sports. If you're looking for a new site to round out your sportsbook membership, then Betsson is definitely a great choice.
Live betting is an important part of their site and Betsson were viewed by many to be one of the originators of live football wagering. If you're interested in wagering on football outside of the Premier League, you can get access to some interesting odds and combinations with Betsson's wagering platform. Their bet slip is easily accessed and placing a bet is as easy as can be. They have a wide variety of deposit options and have service in a number of European languages. You'll also find stellar odds for Turkish football on here as well.
One of the biggest advantages to opening an account at Betsson's sportsbook is that it gives you access to the Betsson network- you can wager at any of their 8 other sites as well. If you are looking to bet on continental football or Champions League, take a look at Betsson for your footballing needs.
Getting tired of the same old stakes and the same competition? Give Betsson a try and get in on the action.
