Full Fun Sports Bookmaker Review

I’d absolutely recommend Fun Sports as an account that you should have among other accounts for two main reasons: the sheer quantity of markets and the coverage of smaller sports.

A big issue is the lack of horse racing and greyhounds. It will absolutely be something that will put off a lot of punters given the importance they hold in UK betting. But, for most other major sports (although there are some exceptions) there are way more markets than most other bookies, and there are smaller sports here that aren’t covered by the majority of competitors such as bandy, chess, lacrosse, water polo and winter sports. 

Another downside is that there is a real lack of promotions, which means that it may struggle to attract users in the first place. Just something that rewards regular bettors, free bets based on the number of bets placed and the like would make a real difference. 

Fun Sports Review Summary

There aren’t a lot of bookies that can match Fun Sports for coverage and it’s a really impressive product overall, particularly for tennis and esports.

Advantages and Disadvantages

All explained in greater detail in this review, these pros and cons allow users to scan and understand where the strengths lie quickly.

Pros

  • Great Bet Mentor tool

  • Brilliant for tennis betting

  • Great coverage of niche sports

Cons

  • No horse racing or greyhound markets

First Impression of Fun Sports

Luke Bradshaw Lee

My First Impressions

This review will reflect the service offered at the time of writing. I signed up on the desktop version of Fun Sports, but also used the mobile version to compare, and downloaded their app. There’s no escaping that this is a casino first. Whether on the app or on desktop you have to navigate from the casino first before you can start checking out the betting markets. The branding and style won’t suit everyone, but I actually quite like the light teal and pink – it definitely sets it apart from pretty much every other sportsbook out there. If you’ve used other L&L brands such as Yeti Bet or Pub Sports, the layout and product will all feel very familiar.

Bet Mentor and Insights 

Fun Sports 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.

Fun Sports Live Betting

This is extremely easy to find, as the pink “LIVE” icon pops against the teal 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 volleyball and E-ice hockey markets like Fun Sports does. See if they make it into our best bookmakers for in-play betting.

Fun Sports Live Streaming

Fun Sports 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. 

Fun Sports Betting Odds

After looking through some alternative sportsbooks, as well as going through some comparison sites, it seems as though the odds offered at Fun Sports 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 Serie A game that has a heavy underdog listed at around 17 or 18, is at 22 on Fun Sports.

Also, remember that it is always worth checking alternative betting options, including best spread betting sites and betting exchange sites, depending on who you are as a bettor.

Fun Sports 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. See how it compares to the best betting apps in the UK.

Fun Sports Football Betting

Fun Sports comes quite close to making our best football betting sites in the UK. The menu panel is telling me that there’s over a thousand different games that I can bet on at this moment in time, and that’s as good as 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 their Insights feature. This is a particular stat based on recent form or data, with a corresponding market below eg “Both teams have scored in 11 of the last 12 Liverpool home games” and the BTTS market below.

You can see in the chart below, in greater detail, why certain bookies rank among the top for football betting sites, and what Fun Sports is up against.

Bet Builder 

There’s a bet builder option at Fun Sports, and it’s okay, but could definitely be improved with some tweaks. 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 Fun Sports’, so this surprises me, perhaps these will increase the closer we get to kick-off.

Bonuses

This is the most limited part of Fun Sports’s product. There is no real welcome offer that isn’t casino-focused, but there are a really good amount of price boosts for a variety of markets, particularly football ones. Their Acca Boost (just for football) boosts accas from four legs, to 12 legs, by a bigger amount the more that you add, so 5% for four selections, up to 50% for 12 selections.

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. Fun Sports has done this well, allowing their customers to instantly cash out their bets on any device they like.

Fun Sports Horse Racing

Fun Sports doesn’t offer horse racing at the time of review.

Fun Sports 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 Fun Sports shows the spread immediately when you land on the markets. It’s something that annoys 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. 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 Fun Sports compares. 

Basketball Betting

Covering the NBA, WNBA, college basketball, Euro League, FIBA Champions League, as well as a few more, Fun Sports has an exceptional basketball offering, with well over 200 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 is impressive and includes the likes of Australia, the UK, Brazil and Turkey. See how it compares to the best basketball betting sites in the country.

Baseball Betting

The MLB, understandably, is a large part of Fun Sports’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 Fun Sports.

Fun Sports Greyhound Betting

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

Fun Sports Darts Betting

By Matt Edgar, professional darts player – If you’re comparing this to the very best darts betting sites in the UK, Fun Sports matches up well overall. 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. What’s great to see, also, is some boosted odds sprinkled about, but for the smaller games the number of markets is very limited.

Fun Sports 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.

Fun Sports 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 is absolutely fine to do and not an issue. 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.

Fun Sports 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 Fun Sports being one of our Top 10 cricket betting sites. Overall, it’s pretty nice because Fun Sports offers a brilliant selection of competitions, and that goes for tournaments across the world, as well as more niche leagues in said countries. I do love how many markets are available here for each game assuming it’s a big fixture – it reduces a lot for minor games – but the value here is just okay.

Fun Sports Tennis Betting

By James Banting - This is maybe the one of the best parts of Fun Sports. You can stream live 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 why they nearly make it into the top 10 tennis betting sites on OLBG.

Fun Sports Golf Betting

By James Banting - Fun Sports’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. 

Fun Sports 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.

Fun Sports 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 Fun Sports.

Fun Sports Other Sports Betting

Whilst these sports might sound very niche, there is a massive 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.

Political Betting

By Nigel Skinner - Fun Sports 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 pretty poor from Fun Sports, with just a market for BBC Sports Personality of the Year. For a bookie with “Fun” literally as their name 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. 

Casino

Fun Sports 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.

Fun Sports Account Opening Process

A reassuringly easy process. At the top-right of the screen Fun Sports 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]

Overall I prefer the desktop version to the app, but both are decent, if not market-leading. 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 Fun Sports 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 Fun Sports has got this part nailed.

Responsible Gambling Features

You can set your deposit limit while you’re signing up; long before you’ve got close to actually making a bet. 

There is also a Settings tab at the bottom of the page, no matter what page you’re on, that allows you to make changes to limits, as well as odds formats, or odds change preferences/notifications.

There are the following measures within its functionality: 

  • Deposit Limit

  • Loss Limit

  • Session Limit

  • Wagering Limits

  • Reality Check

  • Time-Out

  • Self-Exclusion

  • Support Groups & Organisations

  • Advice on Keeping in Control

  • Parental Controls

  • Self-Assessment

All are explained in further detail on their safer gambling page. As well as this, on the same page they list links to the likes of the National Gambling Helpline, Be Gamble Aware and the National Gambling Treatment Service.

Responsible Gambling

There is a full suite of responsible gambling tools for your protection and may request further identification after certain depositing levels are exceeded or stakes are increased quickly.
