Full Virgin Bet Bookmaker Review

The more I use Virgin Bet, the more I like it. It ranks in OLBG’s Top 10s for five different things, and three of these are product-based, rather than sports, which shows how much effort is put into the actual service being delivered. As you us the app, the ever-increasing impression continues to grow and you come across all these little features.

The red button that displays whether sports have live markets is great, the information about where you can watch games (albeit on Virgin Bet or elsewhere) is a brilliant feature, and the level of stats supplied for so many different sports is so good to see.

I’d like more markets for US sports, and the lay out to be improved, but this is a brilliant bookie.

Virgin Bet Review Summary

Overall Virgin Bet delivers a brilliant service and should absolutely be a consideration beyond some of the heavyweights in the industry.

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 for live streaming across multiple sports
Scores in our Top 10 for five categories
The no.1 free bet club in the UK

Cons

No BOG on greyhounds

First Impression of Virgin Bet

My First Impressions

This review will reflect the service offered at the time of writing. I signed up on the desktop version of Virgin Bet, but also used the mobile version to compare, as well as downloading the Virgin Bet app. Virgin Bet feels very clean. Aside from the promotional carousel that runs along the top of the screen (more of that later), the rest of the site features a tonne of white space, clean lines, and a general design that is at-odds with what you expect to see from most bookies, cramming in as much as possible in. A quick look down the side bar menu suggests that the variety in sports is top drawer – I’m not sure where else I’d find lacrosse to bet on.

Virgin Bet Live Betting

Overall, Virgin Bet makes our list of best bookmakers for in-play betting, ranking second best overall. The live betting at Virgin Bet is excellent. Head to their In-Play section, listed at the top of the sidebar menu, and you’ll see all their live markets, as well as upcoming and featured markets. They also list how many events are currently live. This is then split between respective sports. At the time of review there is some tennis, football, golf, cricket and plenty more. Any sport you see with a red button icon next to it has live, in-play markets available.

Virgin Bet Live Streaming

Virgin Bet offers a great live streaming service. They cover sports including football, tennis, horse racing, basketball and American football. What’s really impressive is that all the events that have live streaming have the small “play” icon visible to see, but even ones that you can’t stream through the site or app, Virgin Bet lists where to watch, so NBA League Pass, TNT Sports etc.

Virgin Bet Betting Odds

After going through some comparison sites – OddsChecker and a few others – as well as a closer look across some other bookies, it appears that the odds offered at Virgin Bet are pretty good, but across the board. We checked football, basketball and tennis for in-play odds, plus horse racing and some other sports for pre-match stuff. They’re very competitive and, crucially, because they have some sports that other bookies don’t, you’ll find odds for niche sports here that you won’t elsewhere.

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.

Virgin Bet Betting App or Mobile Site

I really like Virgin Bet’s app. Unless you want to go to their casino or live casino sections, the menu on the app is all along the bottom of the screen, with collapsible options to navigate to other parts of the app. This sounds a little odd, but every time you click on something a new page slides slowly into view, rather than completely changing (you probably have to see it to get the idea). It does two things – makes the process seem considered, and also displays the ability to go back and forth. I’m really impressed.

Virgin Bet Football Betting

Virgin Bet offers a very broad range of football markets, with odds that are competitive, making it one the very best football betting sites in the UK. There’s obviously the major leagues and competitions, but punters can also find domestic leagues as broad and varied as Bahrain, Cyprus, Ethiopia and Thailand. There are also loads and loads of promotions running that are football-specific.

Bet Builder

There’s an absolute tonne of events within their bet builder feature, which is relatively new to Virgin Bet. There’s a really good selection of markets within this, with all laid out nicely, especially on the app. There’s all the markets that you’d like, plus the likeable parts of the feature are also apparent in other sports, which is great to see.

Bonuses

As well as the welcome offer, and regular price boosts, there are a few different promotions to take advantage of, although it’s worth noting that they are usually opt-in. You’ll get a £5 free bet for football when you make a £10 football bet. Likewise, when you make two (minimum) £10 accas, you’ll get a third one free.

Free Bet Club

Virgin Bet have the best free bet club compared to other bookies currently in the UK and it's centred around their free bet club around accas. These accas have to be four selections or more, with total odds at 3.00 or greater, and if you place two bets that fit that criteria, staking £10 or more on each, you’ll be given a free £10 bet to be used on another accumulator as a result.

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. Virgin Bet have done this well, allowing their customers to instantly cash out their bets on any device they like.

Virgin Bet Horse Racing

Pinch to zoom.

The horse racing section at Virgin Bet is very good – there are a few different promotions for horse racing alone. There’s extra places on selected races, money back as a free bet if your selection loses on selected races.

Virgin Bet also have BOG (Best Odds Guaranteed). They don’t offer BOG on greyhounds (they do on UK and Irish racing), and the timing cut off is only 10am which isn’t ideal. That said, the limit that they put on maximum benefits from the offer is an enormous £50,000. Aside from those that offer no limit, it is a fantastic part of Virgin Bet’s Best Odds Guaranteed offering. They still make our top 10 best betting sites for BOG.

Virgin Bet 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

Unfortunately, Virgin Bet does something that is a real bugbear of mine when it comes to American sports, well certainly American football and basketball. When you see the event (a specific game) it only lists the spread. This is better than just displaying the result market, which some do, but what it really should show is three markets: spread, total and moneyline (result). You can see these once you click through, but it’s not how bettors on these sports bet. It’s worth checking out our best NFL betting sites to see how Virgin Bet compares.

Basketball Betting

I think Virgin Bet has a brilliant selection of basketball leagues to bet on. There’s obviously the NBA, but Virgin Bet covers a wide range of EuroLeague and domestic world competitions, also. There are events in Iceland, Latvia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and more. There are stats supplied for bigger games, like the NBA, as well as price boosts and pre-made bet builders to take advantage of.

Baseball Betting

Of course they cover MLB, but they also have markets for the Japanese and South Korean leagues, also. The markets, and the odds, especially on the outrights, look really good. The MLB season hasn’t quite kicked off, but there is a healthy amount of things to bet on, such as individual awards and the like. Keep tabs on the top baseball betting sites though, to see why they make it onto our list.

Ice Hockey Betting

The NHL takes up the bulk of space here, as expected. But there are also some French, Austrian, and Danish fixtures included. I selected an upcoming NHL game and there 12 markets listed, which is okay. For the smaller leagues that reduces a bit more, which is understandable. Overall, I think this is a fairly standard offering.

Virgin Bet Greyhound Betting

There’s no live streaming or Best Odds Guaranteed for greyhounds, which is a bit disappointing, but generally the odds are good and there are a couple of promotions that punters should definitely be aware of. You’ll get your stake back as a free bet if your dog finishes second to the favourite and you can get a daily free bet up to £5 dependent on your other greyhound racing bets.

Virgin Bet Darts Betting

By Matt Edgar, professional darts player – In terms of darts betting sites in the UK, Virgin Bet is a really nice option. There are markets for the Bahrain Darts Masters, European Tour, and Modus Series, as well as the Premier League, with a really decent selection of markets within. What’s also nice to see, and it consistent with other sports across the bookie’s output, is the price boosts and stats that support the markets.

Virgin Bet Snooker Betting

By Steve Madgwick - As with the best snooker betting sites, there are markets for a few different tournaments, including the World Championships, the Masters and World Grand Prix. At the time of the review we’re in the middle of the Champions League, a tournament that I can live stream here, as well as access a load of form and stats on the players and competition. I’m really impressed with the snooker offering here, and will be adding Virgin Bet to my preferred bookies.

Virgin Bet Rugby Betting (Union & League)

By Luke Bradshaw Lee - There’s some good and bad here. First off, there aren’t enough competitions listed. There is the Six Nations, Champions Cup and French league games, but nothing else listed. I can only imagine this is a temporary thing, and I’d expect to see competitions such as the Premiership and URC added at some point in the week. That said, the markets within a game, plus all the stats that come along with it are really good. In short, there’s quality, but not a lot of quantity. See how they compare to our best Rugby betting sites.

Virgin Bet Cricket Betting

By James Banting - This is exceptional. Virgin Bet stands out for cricket betting due to its competitive odds and an extensive array of markets. Combine this with their comprehensive statistics for informed betting and high user ratings, and they get into our top 10 cricket betting sites at position #7.

Virgin Bet Tennis Betting

By James Banting - This is pretty good across the board, and the list of competitions covered is great, with games in Romania, India and Argentina at the time of review. I like how you can choose between “upcoming” and “streaming” to filter out games that you want to watch through the site or app. The odds are fine, nothing incredible, but the amount or markets listed is really good. If they could add in some tennis-specific promotions, they’d definitely be closer to getting into the top 10 tennis betting sites on OLBG.

Virgin Bet Golf Betting

By James Banting - Virgin Bet has a nice golf offering, with a few extra competitions on top of the majors, and extra places at selected tournaments, but it’s all PGA and European Tour ones, which is amazing coverage. On top of that they also have a 2nd or 3rd Place Special – you’ll get a free bet if your outright pick to win finishes 2nd or 3rd.

Virgin Bet Motorsports Betting

By Andy Powell - Motor Sports bettors should be happy with the mixture of events at Virgin Bet. Understandably, the F1 grand prix takes centre stage, although it doesn’t have its own tab and is housed within the “Motor Racing” section. Here you’ll also find Formula E, MotoGP, NASCAR and Speedway. F1 is definitely the deepest here, which should come as no surprise, with plenty of markets and driver specials for the next Grand Prix of the season.

Virgin Bet Boxing Betting

By Frank Monkhouse former professional boxer - There’s lots of boxing bouts to get stuck into here, and the markets look dependent on timings. Those this weekend and over the next few weeks have a decent offering, whereas the further away they get the less markets on offer. That’s understandable, and I wouldn’t expect to find round by round and the like for fights that are months away. On top of this, however, there are some price boosts on the bigger fights, which is really great to see and not something a lot of bookies do.

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.

Other Sports at Virgin Bet 🌍🏀🏐🚴🎮

Virgin Bet offers diverse betting options: handball 🏆, volleyball 🏐, cycling 🚴, Aussie rules 🏉, and esports 🎮. Explore global matches, detailed stats, and infinite markets.

Virgin Bet offers extensive betting options for Handball, volleyball, cycling, AFL betting, and esports. Handball includes global competitions; volleyball,covers European Championships and various tournaments; cycling features future tours and current races; AFL betting has comprehensive stats and esports offers all major games like League of Legends and CS:GO.

Political Betting

There is no political betting on Virgin Bet at the time of writing.

Entertainment and Specials Betting

By Jake Ashton - This is quite basic. There’s a market for Dancing on Ice, but that’s it. No other TV shows, no sports awards shows, usual market type stuff (the next James Bond, for example) and, most surprisingly, none of the big film/TV awards odds such as the Oscars, Baftas or Emmys.

Casino

Virgin Bet does have casino. Despite the name of the brand, it's incredibly easy to find their casino offering from their sportsbook, with banners across the top. 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.

Virgin Bet Account Opening Process

A reassuringly easy process. At the top-right of the screen Virgin Bet has their “Join Now” 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]

The Virgin Bet app is exceptional. The desktop version is very good, in fact it’s better than most in terms of navigation and user experience, but the app is top drawer. I mentioned earlier the way pages move in such a considered way on the app, which provides the sense of control and calm as you’re going through different parts of the bookmaker. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

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 Virgin Bet 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 was very indeed.

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 Virgin Bet 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.

“Virgin Bet About”

Reviewed: December 2024

Virgin Bet has truly exceeded my expectations when it comes to online sports betting. The user interface is incredibly intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate and place bets even for someone like me who is relatively new to sports betting. Their selection of sports and markets is impressive, and I've found the odds to be quite competitive. One of the standout features of Virgin Bet, in my opinion, is their in-play betting. The live betting platform is top-notch, offering a wide array of live events and real-time odds. It adds a whole new level of excitement to the betting experience. The mobile app is well-designed, responsive, and ensures I can enjoy betting on my favorite sports wherever I am. Customer support has also been exceptional, promptly addressing any questions or concerns I've had. I appreciate the various promotions and bonuses they offer, which adds extra value to my bets. Virgin Bet's commitment to responsible gambling is commendable, and I feel secure knowing they prioritize their customers' well-being. In conclusion, Virgin Bet is an excellent choice for sports betting enthusiasts, providing a fantastic all-around experience with great odds, a user-friendly interface, and outstanding customer service.

“Good Promotional Offers”

Reviewed: December 2024

Virgin Bet has a very clear and easy to navigate Website and Mobile Site. I found they had some good offers for new customers and they regularly offer boosted offers for various events. They cover all the main sports and also offer casino type games if that's your thing.

This really is a superb bookmaker. I have an account with them and they are just as good as bet 365, and bet365 is the best in the business if you ask me. Cashouts on virginbet are a great option, that some bookies do not offer

“Why I used Virgin bet.”

Reviewed: December 2024

During the lockdown , virgin bet was one of the online bookmakers that I used. Still do , at times. Very prompt with the free bet for signing up with them. Very decent graphics , very easy to understand. Of course making a bet is not rocket science , but I've noticed that a few firms have graphics that are just a wee bit over the top. Just plain simple easy to use graphics does for me. As I've said , there is no need to try and be too clever. Virgin bet was straight forward to use. Also decent free bet promotions. Also liked their weekly football.competition. And my last comment , pay outs we're prompt. So overall , I actually like virgin bet. And I can't say that about another bookmaker thatch used.

“Great Site.”

Reviewed: December 2024

Virgin Bet is great for sports betting with a large number of sports available and bets provided at competitive odds. The layout is clean and easy to use and the customer support is better compared to other sites. All in all a pleasant site to place a bet.

“The fastest withdrawal processing”

Reviewed: December 2024

I quite like virgin bet. Good rewards in free bets. Probably the fastest withdrawal processing time in the betting market. Most of my withdrawals processed and in my bank account on the same day, sometimes within a few hours.

“Good Customer Service but Bonuses Could be Better”

Reviewed: December 2024

Virgin Bet are a decent enough bookies but they aren't one of my highest preferences. Their site is easy enough to use and their odds are also reasonably good but could be better. The signup bonus could have been better and they could also offer better bonuses and rewards. They do a daily free game, which I've never won anything on, and their Virgin Fives game is also free but prizes from that game are rarely worth bragging about either. Customer service is good though and I've had no issues withdrawing winnings.

“Ok for single bets”

Reviewed: December 2024

I’m a lucky 15 man especially longshot lucky 15s the loss liability is so low at virgin that you struggle to get a 20p lucky 15 on with a few 25/1 14/1 16/1 20/1 horses always gets rejected so for that reason I can’t really recommend the site like I say it’s ok as a back up for the odd single bet here and there but that’s it although this might suit most punters anyway

“A token gesture”

Reviewed: December 2024

I tried Virgin Bet but found that it was very limited. Felt like Virgin had setup a betting company for the sake of it. Site was heavily geared towards having a Casino focus and the Sportsbook lacked any real depth and was difficult to navigate
