Our Experience of BetMGM

Renowned for its high-class casino resorts, BetMGM has opted for a simple but classy black, white, and gold colour scheme. It all looks pretty slick, but the layout is a little different to that commonly used elsewhere, with the lack of a left-hand side sports menu immediately standing out. Nevertheless, it doesn’t take much getting used to. All sports are easily located via the “more” dropdown menu in the “A-Z Explore” section, whilst the biggest upcoming events are placed front and centre on the home page.

Having navigated to the sport you desire, you are unlikely to be disappointed by the quality of the odds on offer. Taking the latest round of Premier League features as an example, we found that BetMGM offered the outright best price or joint best price on at least one match outcome in almost all games – very impressive for a new betting site!

In addition to the sleek site and competitive odds, BetMGM also runs a range of regular promotions, including:

• Golden Acca - Get a profit boost of between 10% and 50% on Accas with three or more legs
• Golden Goals - Free to Play – Win up to £2 Million for correctly predicting 6 Correct Scores
• Weekly Sports Free Bet - Place 1 x £10 4+ Fold Football Acca and 1 x £10 Football Bet Builder, to receive 1 x £5 Free Bet

Sports & Markets Available

BetMGM offers odds and markets on 32 different sports and events. That’s a little less than some of the biggest established sites but still includes the sports that most punters are interested in betting on. Football, UK and Irish Horse Racing, Tennis, Golf, and Boxing all feature here, whilst Floorball, Esports, Handball, and Politics add a welcome dose of variety into the mix.

When navigating to an individual event, the range of markets on offer follows a similar trend, i.e., a little lower than some of the biggest UK sites, but still more than enough to satisfy most punters. Looking at a Premier League football match as an example, you will find options covering, Match Results, Scorers, Correct Score, Corners, Total Shots, Cards, Handicaps, and much more – many of which can be combined in the top-class Bet Builder option.

And, of course, the betting action doesn’t end when the games lick off. Fans of Live Betting are well catered for courtesy of the extensive In-Play section - found in the top menu. Football, Tennis, Esports and more are covered in depth, with Live Stream coverage available on many events.

BetMGM Mobile Betting

You would expect such a big name to arrive with a top-notch app, and BetMGM doesn’t disappoint. Simply head to the App Store or Google Play Store to bring the sportsbook to your iOS or Android-powered device.

Summary

MGM hasn’t made it to the top without striving to be the best, and that attitude shines through in this top-class addition to the online betting scene. Highlights include the eye-catching sign-up offer, great value odds, and the rewarding range of regular promotions and offers. Well worth adding to your online betting portfolio!
