Sports Betting at the Sportsbook

 WEB SITE

Bodoglife.com is not a mere sportsbook site, it's more like a full-spectrum gambling, news, fun and leisure portal. Different company's activities are accessible under separate tabs, just under site's header (Bodog's music, Bodog fights, news blog Bodognation, Bodog's owner blog, etc.). This features make the site quite unique in the industry, giving it identity on its own. Almost everybody can find something interesting on the site, and not only betting-related content. Navigation speed is average, but you won't experience traffic problems. All main odds formats are available: decimal, fractional and American. Bodog has always been more orientated to the American market, so the only available currency is USD. Site is available in English, French, Spanish and Chinese. Users can choose their most convenient time zone.
Category evaluation: GOOD

>>> sub-category: SECURITY

Bodog's server is RSA secured with 1024 bit key SSL encryption. Customers' passwords are one-way encrypted so absolutely no one, including Bodog staff, has access to it.
Category evaluation: EXCELLENT

 DEPOSITS & WITHDRAWALS

Supported deposits methods: credit and debit cards, Instant Check, Click2Pay, Neteller, Moneybookers, Speedcard, eWalletXpress. Please note: only first two options are available for US citizens. Bodog don't charge any fees for all deposit methods. Your account will be credited instantly after depositing for all methods (only exception is the cheque, which may take 10-15 days). Some fees may be charged if deposits are made and then withdrawn without first placing wagers though. Methods of withdrawal: debit and credit cards (Visa only), Click2Pay (non-US customers), NETeller (non-US), Moneybookers (non-US), Speedcard (non-US), Check by Mail (first class postage, mailed Mon - Fri), Check by Courier (must be physical address, no PO Box deliveries). Bodog will cover your fees for all payouts (but some payment providers may charge you additional fees to receive your funds). Transactions can be made 24/7/365. Withdrawals are processed each day on a first come, first served basis and can take as little as 24 hours to process (cards payouts can take up to 5 days). Minimum deposit amount for all methods is 20 USD, there isn't a minimum amount set for withdrawals.
Category evaluation: VERY GOOD

 COLLARS

Minimum bet is 1 USD online and 50 USD by telephone. Maximum bet amount vary between 200 and 2000 USD, depending on sport and market. Most popular markets have 500 or 1000 USD maximum limit per wager. Maximum winnings aren't specified. Bodog sportsbook reserves the right to set individual limits for professional players, but players reports for such limiting are really rare and sporadic. Canada residents are not accepted.
Category evaluation: AVERAGE

 CUSTOMER SUPPORT

Bodog's award-winning customer support is really excellent. Contact methods: e-mail (service@bodoglife.co.uk) and phone (00 800 1004 2004). Support guarantee your e-mail will be answered in 15 minutes, anytime, 7/24//365. Customer agents are highly professional and motivated to help you (Bodog offers some of the best employee incentives in the industry by the way).
Category evaluation: EXCELLENT

 INSCENTIVES & PROMOTIONS

Bodog offers one of the largest sign-up bonus in the industry - 10 % on your first deposit, no max bonus amount ( which may be limited by deposit method only). Deposit and bonus amount must be wagered one time in total before the bonus is redeemed (3x rollover for Neteller deposits). Casino and poker wagers count towards rollover requirements too, according to a special scheme (please check website for full terms and conditions). There is a separate 110 % poker sign-up bonus too, and its rollover requirement is very favourable to players. Bodog ofers a very attractive referral program too. After your referred friends sign-up and deposit a minimum of GBP 10, you'll earn 20% of their first deposit (up to a maximum bonus of GBP 30). Referral bonus rollover requirements are the same as these for the sign-up bonus.
