AK Bets Review
Why Choose AK Bets?
- Slick site
- Regular Social Media offers and competitions
- Comprehensive In-Play section
Odds
First things first, how good are the odds on offer at AK Bets? To test this out, we looked at the latest list of Premier League fixtures. Overall, AK Bets didn’t offer many standout best prices but were very close to the best price on many outcomes. The average over-round of 6-8% also represents solid value for money, with many firms typically offering an over-round of 11-12%. (The lower the over-round, the better for the punter).
The horse racing odds performed better in terms of outright or joint best prices. Taking the Ante Post market for the St. Leger as an example, AK Bets offered the outright best price or joint best price for five of the top six horses in the betting.
New Player Offer
The main drawback of the site is that there is currently no sign-up offer available. However, this is a very new site, and that may well change in time.
Regular Offers
Those who like to mix in a little slot action with their sports betting may wish to take a look at AK’s Slots Club, which gives you the chance to earn 50 Free Spins every week, and the Drops & Wins promotion, which awards a selection of Cash Prizes every day.
Sports betting fans are advised to follow @AKBets87 on Twitter for punter-friendly content and a selection of regular Special Offers and Promotions.
Markets & Features
A total of 24 sports and events feature on the AK Bets menu. That’s a little lower than some of the biggest sites online, but it is nice to see a site that doesn’t overwhelm you with options. AK Bets instead focuses on the most popular betting sports. UK and international Horseracing, Football, Golf, and Tennis are all covered in depth, as are all of the big US Sports.
We were impressed with the horse racing market features, which include a graphic to show which runners are being backed, and which are drifting in the market. Football betting fans will be impressed with the range of markets. Click through to the latest Premier League game, and you will find well over 50 betting options, including an excellent Bet-Builder.
The site also includes a comprehensive In-Play section, which can be reached via a tab at the head of the screen, and lists all events on a single screen, making the placement of In-Play accas nice and simple.
AK Bets comes with a high-quality App, available to download for iOS and Android-powered devices, in addition to a telephone betting option, which not too many sites offer these days.
