Is Betfair still the best for football betting in the UK?

As someone who’s been placing football bets in the UK for years, I’ve always considered Betfair my go-to platform for football betting, especially because of its unique Betfair Exchange feature. This allows me to bet against other players rather than the house, giving me better odds and the chance to lay bets (bet against an outcome). I’ve scored some great wins betting on Premier League and Champions League matches using this feature.

Why I’ve Stuck with Betfair​

  1. Betfair Sportsbook: It’s easy to navigate, and their new customer offer often includes a Betfair promo code that unlocks free bets or deposit matches. I’ve claimed a few over the years and found their terms straightforward.
  2. Betfair App: The app is fast, user-friendly, and makes live betting during football matches seamless. Placing in-play bets while watching a match has become part of my weekend routine.
  3. Free Bets & Promotions: I’ve frequently used Betfair’s free bets earned through football promotions. The app even has a clear guide on how to use free bets on Betfair, making it simple for beginners.
  4. Fast Withdrawals: I’ve never had issues with Betfair withdrawals—it usually takes 24-48 hours to process my winnings, depending on my payment method.

Exploring Other Features​

I also dabble in other parts of the site when I’m not betting on football:

  • Betfair Casino: Their online slots and live dealer games are fun when I’m in the mood for something different.
  • Betfair Bingo: It’s surprisingly entertaining and offers a nice change of pace from intense sports betting.
  • Betfair Forum Horse Racing Community: I’ve picked up useful betting tips from fellow punters in the Betfair Community, especially around big events like the Cheltenham Festival and the Grand National.

Why I’m Considering Other Platforms​

Recently, I’ve noticed some new UK betting sites gaining traction, such as Netbet, Betrino, and Grosvenor, offering competitive football promotions, boosted odds, and even no-commission exchanges. Grosvenor’s modern interface and cash-out features are impressive, while Netbet’s live in-play betting on football is second to none.

Final Thoughts​

While Betfair has been a trusted platform for years, I’m curious if there’s still room for improvement—or if Betfair Exchange is starting to feel outdated compared to its competitors. What’s been your best football betting experience lately? Do you still use Betfair login regularly or prefer other platforms? I’d love to hear how you’re placing in-play bets, using promotions, or free bets on your favorite football betting apps!
 
I’ve always liked Betfair’s app—it’s so smooth for in-play betting. But have you tried Bet365? Their odds sometimes beat Betfair, especially on underdogs
