BetStorm Review

BetStorm, established in 2021, is a newcomer to the betting scene. However, even though this particular sportsbook just entered a highly competitive market, its operator, ProgressPlay Limited, is an established name in the gambling industry and knows how to make an attractive offer for punters. Our BetStorm review will cover BetStorm’s important aspects to keep in mind if you decide on trying it out.

Mobile App:

BetStorm, unfortunately, doesn’t have a dedicated mobile app. However, don’t let this dissuade you from giving the website a shot. You can access and use the website through any browser app. The website looks fine on smaller screens, but needs a bit of work for a completely polished experience.

We liked that the BetStorm registration process didn’t take too much time, and we could immediately check out some live matches to bet on. With more than 45 sports and esports available, we had a nice variety of options we could include on our betting slip. We were not surprised when we saw that football is the most popular sport on the website, but it’s far from the only one. When it comes to esports, CS:GO and League of Legends are the go-to choices. BetStorm makes it easy to find competitions favoured by other players by sorting them into the popular competitions category.

In the casino section, BetStorm’s games include all the fan favourites, but there are hundreds of other slots to choose from as well, if you get tired of Starburst, Gonzo’s Quest, Book of Dead, and Fishing Frenzy. Even though BetStorm is primarily a betting website, it has a comprehensive selection of top-notch table games, like roulette, blackjack, poker, and baccarat. Casual games, like lotto, scratchcards, and virtual sports, can also help you pass the time. There are lobbies for games with live dealers for those players that prefer having an authentic casino experience.

Promotional Offer:

There’s one BetStorm welcome bonus for the sportsbook and one for the casino, depending on your preferences. Sports fans will be happy to know that, for a £10 bet they place, they will get a free one in the same amount. Keep in mind that a minimum odds of 1.5 are required to be eligible for the free bet. Any gains from the free bet need to be wagered ten times before you are eligible to withdraw those funds, and they need to be used within seven days. Unfortunately, Skrill deposits do not qualify for the welcome bonus.

If BetStorm’s slots and casino games are more to your liking, don’t worry – the operator has your back. BetStorm will match your first deposit by 100% up to £100. In addition, you will get 20 free spins on Book of Dead that you need to spend within seven days, or they will expire. Bonus funds have a longer expiry date, and you need to use them within 30 days of getting them credited to your account. BetStorm has a 50x wagering requirement for those funds, however. As with the sportsbook promotion, the casino welcome bonus is also not available to players that use Skrill.

On the plus side, you will be happy to know that BetStorm promotions are not limited to new players. Punters can enjoy promotions that will grant them cashback and free bets on various sports. There are weekly promotions with free spins, cashback, leaderboards, and cash prizes for casino fans, too.

What Makes the Operator Stand Out?

BetStorm has an engaging loyalty program. If you are looking for a gamified sportsbook and casino, this is the perfect spot for you. By completing specific tasks, like making a deposit, playing a variety of games, and placing bets, you gain points and level up your account. You can use points at BetStorm’s store to get free bets, add bonus funds, get match deposit bonuses, and free spins. BetStorm’s loyalty program is a fun and engaging way of motivating players to try out something new.

Payment Options:

The sportsbook accepts deposits with Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Trustly, ecoPayz, MuchBetter, and paysafecard. The minimum you can pay is £10. All deposits are instant, so you can start playing right away. All withdrawals have a pending period of three business days, during which you can change your mind and leave funds on the website for your games. Money is usually processed and transferred in a period between two and eight business days. BetStorm withdrawals are subject to a £2.5 fee.

Security, Fairness, and Responsible Gambling:

ProgressPlay Limited has a remote license granted by the UK Gambling Commission. It’s also regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority.

The online betting venue is GDPR compliant, so you don’t have to worry about the betting site misusing your data. The website uses a random number generator to determine the outcome of its casino games, so you can be sure the results of your games are fair.

BetStorm also lists out their return to player percentages, and you can find their ratings linked on the homepage.

BetStorm’s security is ensured with the 128-bit SSL encryption and the latest firewall technology protecting its users and servers. You can rest easy knowing that any communication between you and the casino is encrypted and the data safely stored.

Restricted Countries:

Unfortunately, BetStorm is not open for all regions and players from Australia, Belize, Belgium, Bulgaria, British Virgin Islands, Cyprus, Croatia, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Israel, Luxembourg,  Lithuania, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Slovenia, Serbia, Turkey, and the US are not eligible to play.

Customer Support:

Belstorm’s customer support is available 24/7 and can be reached either through email or live chat. They are prompt and professional, which is essential for players to enjoy staying at this online venue.

Operator Bottom Line:

Having a wide variety of sports to bet on is a must-have for a modern sportsbook, and BetStorm will not disappoint you. If you are waiting to pass the time between the matches on your betting slip, the online venue has a perfect selection of great casino games and slots.

We enjoyed testing and exploring the sportsbook for our BetStorm review, and can confidently recommend it for anyone looking for a quality betting website
