Sky bet sports betting “Price Boosts”

Each month Sky Bet give away over £1 million to their loyal clients from price boosts on a number of different markets across selected sports. On any given day or week, Skybet will boost a certain goalscorer, horse or tennis player etc. that are boosted in price so punters can earn extra value on their bets!

The Sports Betting Menu

At the top of the page, punters can gain access to a complete list of in-play betting options through a dynamic table. Situated in the centre of the homepage, this betting panel lists the "live bets" and can be filtered according to certain sports. This set up is great because it offers links to simple market propositions (such as selecting the winner) and allows you to place a bet with a single click of your mouse.

For those who like to seek out the best value bets of the day, the second panel on the homepage displays the latest odds for all the forthcoming fixtures. Broken down into specific sports, such as football and horse racing, the scrolling widget gives members direct access to bets taking place within the "next 24 hours" as well as "feature events".

This simple division between in-play betting and future betting is a nifty way to divide up the page and ensure everyone can find what they're looking for with the minimum of fuss.

Sky Bet mobile app

The latest innovation from Sky Bet is by far the best. Known as the Sky Bet Tracker, the app not only allows mobile users to place bets and track the latest action, but it gives them the ability to cash out their chips in-play via their mobile device.

Although this facility is becoming more common across the online sports betting industry, the way in which Sky Bet handles it is highly impressive. Built into a dedicated app, the function requires just a few swipes to spring into action. Indeed, if you're someone who errs on the side of pessimism when you're betting, then the cash out feature will prove extremely useful.

While you may never realise the maximum value of your bets if you use it too often, it's an extremely handy tool to have if you ever get the "feeling" something isn't right.

View from the Casino Floor

Being linked to one of the largest sports media outlets in the world certainly has its advantages both for Sky Bet as a company and for you as a customer. Being a trusted brand means you're able to utilise a range of deposit options (Visa, MasterCard, Skrill, Neteller, PayPal and Maestro) and you'll never have any issue with receiving your winnings.

Moreover, because Sky as a brand has a reputation to uphold, it's willing to invest a lot of money in its online products and that's resulted in a platform that boasts a wealth of betting options, money-making aids and bonuses. Young people are often told they should reach for the sky if they want to go far in life and that's something we'd recommend as well if you want to go far in the betting world.
