Company Information
There are many old bookmakers, who have stood the test of time. Totesport is one of them. The bookie is founded far back in 1928 and keeps living 87 years later, stronger than before. In the beginning, the Tote bookmaker dealt exclusively with horse racing. Nowadays, they employ over 4000 people in about 450 shops around the UK, making them the fourth largest bookmaker on the island. The interesting thing here is that the owner, Tote Group started their business in times where sports’ betting was prohibited in the UK. Luck or not, the British Parliament made an exception for the company because of a promise they made – that they will return a certain percentage of their profits into the horseracing sphere. Even after so many years, Totesport is still keeping their promise. Thirteen years ago, in 2002, Tote group released their betting website with the name Tote BetXpress. The brand Totepool was officially released for the public two years later in 2004. As of now, Totesport may not be the biggest online bookmakers, but they are sure among the top.
When you visit the website, the first two colors you see are black and light-green. A splash of orange on the buttons gives the website a very fresh perspective from a design standpoint. The most popular sport here is Football, of course, followed by horse racing. Usually, Totesport covers mainly UK events and bigger international ones, but that’s not a given. With time, the bookie has improved a lot and now you can watch and bet on sports from all over the world.
Totesport now offers a mobile app on both Android and iOS systems!
Betting Information
The sports section of Totesport is the biggest on the website. You can see betting highlights right there on the homepage, as well as a list of all the sports you can bet on – from football, through horseracing to tennis. There is a variety of live betting options, too. The availability of live events is not absolute, but the options are still many, and you can choose from a large number of matches. The Totepool section is an alternative to the fixed-odds betting on horse or greyhound racing. It’s basically like a betting exchange – all the bets are collected in a pool, and the winnings you get are calculated, based on the number of winners. There are various betting options to choose from.
The casino section of Totesport contains a large number of traditional games. Currently, the most popular ones are Roulette, Blackjack, Cleopatra MJP and Siberian Storm MJP. If you are into Lotto, you can choose from a nifty list of variations. Totesport make sure players will find the game they are looking for on their website. The only missing feature are the live Poker tables, but that’s it.
Odds Information
The odds on Totesport are among the best on the bookmaker market. Usually, they match or even outclass other websites’ odds to stay competitive. Their clients like this fact and are there to stay. The best odds to bet on football, for example, are correct score and match result/total goals. There is also a double chance option that allows for some high payout rates. My overall look on the odds of Totesport is very confident. The fact that you can win a maximum of 500 000 GBP per day is also quite astounding. With some crafty and smart betting, able players can become rich quite fast.
Security and Customer Service
Totesport know how important internet security is nowadays, especially when handling large amounts of money all the time. The website is encrypted with a secure SSL protocol and ensures your data, identity and transactions will be in good hands. If you are worried about account scams and other such bad ways of handling, do not worry. Totesport is a member of IBAS and is subject to fair gaming regulations.
The website services only English-speaking customers, but the service is great. The online bookmaker can be reached by telephone, e-mail or the convenient live chat widget. The client care department works 24/7/365 and is always there to help with resolutions or answers, whenever you need them. You will be surprised how friendly and helpful are the people on the other side of the phone/chat.
Deposits and Withdraws
The deposit options are pretty straightforward. You can re-fuel your account with all the main European credit cards, including Laser. Withdrawal is done with the credit cards, plus Bank Transfer and Cheque. The options aren’t many, but they are handy and cover the most used means of depositing and withdrawing cash from bookmaker websites. Totesport accepts the most popular currencies and you can easily review them in the table.
Deposit Bonus and Loyalty Programs
Totesport offer a few gifts upon registering. The first one is the sports promotion – bet up to 10 GBP and get matched 100% for free. This is a very easy to understand and execute promo. The Lotto bonus is quite the same, and the Casino games promotion offers 10 GBP cash back. All in all very self-explanatory and without any hidden rules.
