Summary

Betfair is an online UK betting exchange site and has been running since the year 2000.

Unfortunately, due to betting restrictions in the USA, Betfair can only allow bets to be made from those customers on a restricted basis. That being said the sportsbook site is available to players from other countries worldwide.

In order to cater to international customers the site can be translated easily into more than 10 languages.

New players can take advantage of bonuses that are specific to them, such as a £25 welcome bonus. Existing and loyal customers will also see many bonuses available to them on a daily basis.

At Betfair, players can place bets on a wide range of sports. These range from soccer and American football to cultural and less well known sporting events such as the Gaelic Games.

Prior to large events such as Formula 1 and the Grand National, customers will find the site offers many promotions themed to that sporting event. These can include free bets.

Betfair has an excellent customer support facility where players can contact the team 24 hours a day by email and telephone.
