A hugely trusted and respected name, the company is making a big splash with its modern betting facilities, looking set to be one of the fastest growing new sites around. Here we take a look at what’s on offer, including information on the sign-up deal, regular offers and more.

Our Experience of Fitzdares

Upon signing in to Fitzdares, the home page presents users with the most popular betting markets, including the upcoming horse races, major golf tournaments and current list of in-play events. A “next favourites” tab to the right of the screen is also a nice touch, enabling favourite backers to quickly locate the selections they require.

Access to all other sports is provided by a convenient horizontal menu bar towards the head of the screen, with the betting markets themselves taking up the bulk of the central area. Experienced online players will find familiarity in the betting slip which appears to the right-hand side and includes all of the single, multiple and combination bets you would expect. All told, a slick and easy to use interface, easily on a par with the biggest names in the game.

Offering generous weekly specials on the biggest events, money back offers on French racing and in-play tennis, and bonus winnings on Lucky 15, 31 and 63 bets, there is plenty of added value here in addition to the excellent sign-up deal. Throw in “cash out” and “Create A Bet” features, expert analysis in the “Whatsport” and “Fitzdares Times” sections of the site, and quick and efficient customer service, and there’s a whole lot to like here.

Sports & Markets Available

Customers will find plenty of variety at Fitzdares, with the site providing odds on a total of 29 separate events at the time of review: including everything from the hugely popular horse racing, football, and golf to the more niche areas of Esports, Handball, and Table Tennis.

Delving into the individual sports, the number of markets may be a little less than some of the biggest names online. Nevertheless, the football games we looked at still featured over 150 separate options - unless you are looking to bet on something truly obscure, you will most likely find what you need here. Horseracing meanwhile offers a range of daily specials, in addition to betting without the favourite and alternative place markets.

Fitzdares Mobile Betting

App fans will be pleased to note that a Fitzdares app is available to download for both iOS and Android devices. And as you would expect from a company with such a classy reputation, the bespoke app compares very favourably with others on the market.

App users will find the transition from the desktop site to be almost seamless, with the layout being almost identical on both platforms. Scaling extremely well, the slick functionality and ease of use in terms of bet placement, accounting options, and customer service, creates an intuitive modern betting application.

Summary

Going into this review we anticipated a high-end experience, and that is exactly what Fitzdares have delivered. The company has clearly put a lot of time and effort into both it’s desktop and app offerings, and that investment shines through in a site which reflects both the companies’ traditional roots and place in the modern betting landscape. The only real negative came with the slightly lower than average number of sports and markets, but that will no doubt expand in time at a new betting site which is well worth a look.
