Who Are Lottoland?

Lottoland launched in 2023, and falls under the L&L umbrella. With that in mind, despite its relative infancy, there is plenty of experience behind it as a product. Let’s find out what it does well and who may like it.

• Established in 2013

• EU Lotto Ltd

• UKGC licence number - 38991

First Impression of Lottoland

By Luke Bradshaw Lee - This review will reflect the service offered at the time of writing. I signed up on the desktop version of Lottoland, but also used the mobile version to compare, as well as downloading their app. 

Lottoland is, unsurprisingly, a lottery and casino-first product. That said, when you arrive at the site it’s incredibly easy to find the sportsbook through the main nav bar. And if you’ve used certain L&L brands (Yeti Casino, Fun Sports etc.), Lottoland uses the same platform and so the layout – bar the colour and branding – is immediately recognisable. 

Lottoland Lottery Betting

While it’s not sport betting, it’s worth knowing about Lottoland’s lottery betting.

The way it works is that you choose the lottery game that you want to bet on – let's say the Powerball, in the USA. you pick your numbers as you would if you were playing, and these numbers represent your bet. If you get your numbers right, LottoGo will pay you the same as the actual jackpot offered. It’s basically a way of playing any lottery in the world, whereas you can normally only play if you are a resident of that country. LottoGo can even boost these jackpots because they’re not restricted by the official lottery caps.

Bet Mentor and Insights 

Lottoland has recently added two nice new features to their betting markets that can be used across different sports. Insights provides different specific markets based on a particular stat or recent form or data, with the corresponding market below eg For a Premier league game involving Liverpool it has “Both teams have scored in 11 of the last 12 Liverpool home games” with the BTTS market below.

The Bet Mentor tool allows you to say how much you’d like to stake, and how much you’d like to win, and then provides the markets that would allow you to do that. These can automatically be added to your betslip with one click.

Lottoland Live Betting

This is extremely easy to find, as the red “IN-PLAY” icon is immediately clear against the white background. Not only can you head straight to the live betting part of the site, but all sports that currently have live markets feature the same red icon in the menu bar. I can immediately see that there’s plenty of live markets, and there can’t be many other bookies offering in-play odds on beach futsal, volleyball and E-ice hockey markets like Lottoland does. See if they make it into our best bookmakers for in-play betting.

Lottoland Live Streaming

Lottoland has some decent live streaming options. The “LIVE” menu, or even a single live event, has a small toggle on the right-hand side, where you can flick between live streaming (if available) or graphics. Not all live events have the streaming option, but a good few do. There are no requirements to watch other than being a registered user and being logged in. You don’t have to bet on the event in question and you don’t have to have money in your account. 

Lottoland Betting Odds

After looking through some alternative sportsbooks, as well as going through some comparison sites, it seems as though the odds offered at Lottoland are generally decent. Some seem to be around what you’d expect but you can definitely find some extra value, especially on some longer shots, in particular markets. For example, one Bundesliga game that has a heavy underdog listed at around 14 or 15, is at 17 on Lottoland.

Lottoland Betting App or Mobile Site 

Like the desktop, there is one app for the casino and sportsbook, and you have to get to the sportsbook from the casino to begin with. I find the app a bit cluttered but it does work quite fluidly, and moving between markets is easy enough. It may just take a little getting used to, however, because the more I use it, the more I like it.

Lottoland Football Betting

Lottoland isn’t far off making our best football betting sites in the UK. The menu displays that there’s over a thousand different markets that I can bet on at this moment in time, and that’ll compete with anyone in the industry. There’s a great option to bet on whether there will be a card, corner or goal in the next five minutes of a match and another nice touch is the aforementioned Insights feature. This uses a particular stat based on recent form or data, with a corresponding market eg “Both teams have scored in 11 of the last 12 Liverpool home games” and the associated BTTS market below.

Bet Builder 

There’s a bet builder option at Lottoland, and it’s not bad, but could definitely be improved upon.. I’d say it’s pretty standard, and if there were some more markets to add into builders they’d be more appealing. Generally market depth is a strength of Lottoland, so this is a little surprising. The only thing I can hope is that as it gets closer to kick-off and teams are announced more markets are added, but I haven’t seen anything like that so far.

Bonuses

This is pretty limited when it comes to sportsbook promotions, but there are two main ones to remember. Lottoland runs a Bore Draw refund, so your money back on losing pre-match correct score bets if the game finishes 0-0. The other main one is a weekly bet club. This gives bettors a free £5 bet in you stake £25+ on accumulator bets (at odds of 3/1 or more) over the course of the week.

Cash Out

Cashout is a very important betting feature for punters these days so it's crucial that bookies integrate this feature into their mobile betting apps. Lottoland has done this well, allowing their customers to instantly cash out their bets on any device they like.

Lottoland Horse Racing

Lottoland’s racing offering is okay, but not a lot more. There’s no UK races listed, although there are races from pretty much everywhere else in the world including Panama, Uruguay, Italy and South Korea. I can’t see anything in the way of forecast, tricast or anything else along those lines - just winner markets. It’s very much a wide selection, but not very deep.

Lottoland US Sports Betting

A full range of American Sports is available. We’ll check out the major leagues, but also look into the sports further down the pyramid and, as well as across the globe. 

American Football Betting

Thankfully Lottoland shows the spread immediately when you land on the markets. It’s something that can irritate me quite a lot when it comes to American football – that being that when you see the event (a specific game), and it only lists the winner market, so glad that’s not the case here. You can see all the other markets once you click through and there is an absolute tonne here, including next season’s outrights and NFL Draft markets, which is great to have. It’s worth checking out our best NFL betting sites to see how Lottoland compares.

Basketball Betting

Covering the NBA, WNBA, college basketball, Euro League, as well as leagues in Turkey, Indonesia, Venezuela and more, Lottoland has an exceptional basketball offering, with well over 150 different markets to choose from, making it a great place to come to for basketball betting. In fact, like a lot of L&L sportsbooks, the number of international leagues covered isabout as good as it gets. See how it compares to the best basketball betting sites in the country.

Baseball Betting

The MLB, understandably, is a large part of Lottoland’s baseball betting, but they also have markets for the Japanese, Taiwan and South Korean leagues. The markets, and the odds, especially on the outrights, appear to be really good. The MLB season is well underway at the moment, and there is an impressive amount of markets here, such as individual awards and other futures, on top of the individual match markets such as pitcher lines, batter hits and over/unders on triples. Keep tabs on the top baseball betting sites though, to see if they make it onto our list.

Ice Hockey Betting

The NHL takes up the majority of real estate here, as one would expect. But there are also some Austrian, Swedish and Australian fixtures included, among others. I selected an upcoming NHL game and there is a really impressive number of markets available – more than pretty most other sportsbooks I’d wager. For the lesser leagues that reduces a bit more, which makes sense. Overall, I think this is impressive from Lottoland.

Lottoland Greyhound Betting

Lottoland doesn’t offer greyhound racing at the time of review.

Lottoland Darts Betting

By Matt Edgar, professional darts player – We’re constantly assessing the very best darts betting sites in the UK, and Lottoland matches up well enough. I went through some of the upcoming Premier League match ups, as well as some smaller events such as the Modus series, and there are plenty of markets for each game. There’s also already some outrights on the next World Championships, despite how far out it is, which is always a decent thing to have and an easy win for bookies, so odd when they don’t list it.

Lottoland Snooker Betting

By Steve Madgwick - As with the best snooker betting sites, there are markets for some small upcoming events, plus futures on the World Championships, UK Championships and Masters. There aren’t a lot of markets here per match, which is a bit of a shame, but I do like the statistics in the bar down the right-hand side – there’s a good selection of stuff here and the fact that you can toggle between different types of data is fantastic.

Lottoland Rugby Betting (Union & League)

By Luke Bradshaw Lee - This isn’t great I’m being totally honest. Firstly, it’s worth knowing that rugby league and rugby union are split and so are housed in different places, which I think is a better way of doing things, so absolutely no issues with that. What is an issue, however, is that within match events there is a pretty limited selection of markets to bet on – just results, handicap and a scoring markets, with nothing in the way of player markets such as try scorer or points scorer. If there was more I’d absolutely see them making OLBG’s best Rugby betting sites.

Lottoland Cricket Betting

By James Banting - If there were anything in the way of specific cricket promotions, or if the odds were a little better, I could see Lottoland being one of our Top 10 cricket betting sites. Overall, it’s a really good offering because Lottoland has a brilliant selection of competitions, and that goes for tournaments across the world, as well as more niche leagues in said countries. I also love how many markets are available here for each game assuming it’s a big fixture – it reduces a fair bit for smaller competitions and games, but that’s understandable. 

Lottoland Tennis Betting

By James Banting - This is probably the best part of the Lottoland sportsbook. You can stream live selected tennis matches, the bet builder option is great, the supporting statistics are on point and there’s brilliant coverage across a whole host of events. They may not have quite the same number of markets as the very best when it comes to sheer quantity, but this is a brilliant option for tennis bettors. See if they make it into the top 10 tennis betting sites on OLBG.

Lottoland Golf Betting

By James Banting - Lottoland’s golf offering is a bit disappointing. There are lots of competitions covered, but limited in terms of markets. There are a few smaller tournaments happening right now, or due to start soon, such as the Phoenix Open, Astara Championship or Commercial Bank Qatar Masters, and  these are listed in some capacity. I’d like to see a good bit more for me to consider using them consistently.

Best Bookmakers for Golf Betting

Lottoland Motorsports Betting

By Andy Powell - There is loads here. For the next upcoming Formula 1 Grand Prix there are so many markets to choose from. Obviously there is the winner, but also how many times the safety car will be out, head to heads on driver finishes, and absolutely tons of yes/no question based markets to choose between. On top of that there are also markets for Nascar, Indycar, Rally, Speedway and Formula E.

Lottoland Boxing Betting

By Frank Monkhouse former professional boxer - There’s plenty of boxing bouts to get stuck into here, and the markets look dependent on how far in advance they are. Those this weekend and over the next few weeks have an okay offering, whereas the further away they get the less markets on offer. That’s fair enough, and I wouldn’t expect to find round by round and the like for fights that are months away, but I would definitely like more options for big fights happening this week, and that’s definitely limited based on my experience with Lottoland.

Lottoland Other Sports Betting

Whilst these sports might sound very niche, there is still a large enough market for fans, and millions of them in the UK, so good coverage of niche sports and events is key to be reviewed on OLBG; let’s dig in a bit further.

Handball Betting

Betting on handball at Lottoland looks very impressive. There’s actually over 90 games to bet on at the time of review, and that’s way more than most bookies. There aren’t loads of markets per game, but the odds are great and there are competitions in Bahrain, Portugal, Romania, Greece and more listed. Handball is increasingly popular and Lottoland looks to be struggling in terms of providing a platform for punters to bet on various handball events and tournaments worldwide. 

Cycling Betting

Lottoland offers betting on cycling for sports bettors who like to dabble in cycling betting, and comparing it with others out there it’s what we’d expect. There isn’t a load of markets, but that’s true of anywhere to be honest. What you can get is odds on next year’s Tour de France winner, plus the Classics like the Tour of Flanders, Paris-Roubaix and Milan-San Remo.

Aussie Rules Football Betting

As far as Lottoland is concerned, their event coverage is pretty standard – they have most parts covered. The games, competitions and odds are good, but the actual list of markets isn’t huge per game. It’s not as great as some others out there, but overall they are still a solid option.

Political Betting

By Nigel Skinner - Lottoland houses its political betting under “Specials”, along with entertainment. Their political betting is pretty good overall. There are some US Presidential markets, but not loads, and odds on the next Mayor of London. In terms of UK General Election markets, there are next Prime Minister odds, majority odds and next party leader markets, too.

Entertainment and Specials Betting

By Jake Ashton - This is very poor from Lottoland, with just a market for BBC Sports Personality of the Year. I’d expect a bit more of a light-hearted approach to Specials betting, with markets in music, film, awards ceremonies and even some super-specific seasonal stuff. 

Esports Betting

The esports betting at Lottoland is very good. There is an “Esports” tab in the menu  and this will take you to markets (inclungi in-play) for a huge range of games including, but not limited to, Dota 2, Counter-Strike, Call of Duty, League of Legends and Overwatch. On top of this, in the menu you’ll find e-versions of sports – football, basketball and hockey – that include games like GT Sports League, E-battles and E-Rivals. 

Virtual Sports

Lottoland has loads of virtual sports betting options. There is football, horse racing, greyhound racing, motorsports, table tennis, cricket, baseball, and more. You name it, it’s almost certainly here and I actually can’t remember a bigger virtual sports selection anywhere else. The football, for example, features World Cup, Bundesliga, Champions League games, and on it goes. There is plenty here for virtual sports lovers.

Casino

Lottoland does have casino. It’s incredibly easy to find their casino offering from their sportsbook, with banners across the top and, as mentioned, it’s where you’re directed to from the off. They also have some bonuses and offers that lead to casino spins should you win sportsbook bets. Check our Casino Sites page for dedicated new online casinos and slot sites.

Lottoland Account Opening Process

A reassuringly easy process. At the top-right of the screen Lottoland has their “Register” button. Bettors just need to select this and follow the simple steps as guided through. You’ll be asked for the usual information – name, date of birth, address etc – and once complete be sent a verification email. Clicking this from your inbox will redirect you to the site, and then you’re free to get betting.

Navigation and user experience [desktop v mobile]

I prefer the desktop version to the app, but both are good, if not the absolute best around. There’s the issue of having to get to the sportsbook via the casino that is mentioned above, but once you’re there everything seems in order. One thing I think would make it much better is the ability to click on a sport and see all markets at once. If you select “Football” for example, you get the drop down of all the different leagues to then select, but what I want is to be able to see all at once and then decide. 

Placing a bet

This section should only really highlight if there are issues, as the process is almost identical on every site. Within a few minutes of signing up to Lottoland I placed a couple of bets on different sports, one of which took advantage of the welcome offer, and I used their bet builder feature, which worked well. 

Managing your account

As mentioned above, the design really helps this along. On the desktop version, it’s stuff to the  left of the screen. On the app, it’s all at the bottom, with just the login at the top. I haven’t experienced any issues logging in, or finding customer service options, either. Overall, it feels like Lottoland has got this part nailed.

Lottoland Responsible Gambling Features

As with all online betting companies, responsible gambling should be and will be an essential element of the service provided.

Expect KYC procedures and document supply as a matter-of-course, to confirm your account after you have deposited a certain level of funds and in the event of any large wins.

You can set limits for yourself across depositing options and daily staking options too, so you can set your levels and keep control of your gambling.

Expect Lottoland to contact you via your preferred communication method if there are suspicious activities on your account. This protects your account from being accessed by someone other than you and ensures you control your gambling activity. Lottoland have a legal obligation to question your activity if they believe it to be suspicious.

As part of Lottoland's commitment to safer gambling, they aim to make zero revenue from harmful gambling by the end of 2023.

Lottoland Review Summary 

Lottoland has a lot going for it. Firstly, the coverage of smaller events and sports – this includes things like futsal, ski jumping and pesapallo –  is only something you really find at L&L platforms, plus maybe a few more select others. It’s very good indeed, and something that punters should consider when looking for niche competitions or sports to bet on. Secondly, the number of markets, for most sports, is really impressive, although there are a few exceptions.  

However, there are definitely some blots on the Lottoland copybook. Not having anything in the way of UK horse racing, or greyhounds, is annoying. I can see that putting particular punters off. There could be a few more promotions, but actually this has been upped recently, with plenty of odds boosts, acca boosts and the like. 

Having an account is worth it, just for the lottery betting alone, but given that the sportsbook is not the primary focus of Lottoland, it’s actually pretty impressive in the main.
