General Information Betfred was founded in 1967 by the two brothers, Fred and Peter Done. The company now operates more than 700 shops across the United Kingdom and is not only one of the top four bookmakers in Great Britain, but also one of the world’s biggest independent bookmakers. Since its website was launched in 2004, Betfred has accepted online wagers as well as phone bets and the company continues to expand today. In 2006, Betfred was appointed the official bookmaker for the new Wembley Stadium as well as for Manchester United. The company has the exclusive rights of association in the betting sector and operates all betting locations within the stadium. Betfred is operated by Done Brothers (Cash Betting) Ltd. and is licensed and regulated in the United Kingdom. Range of Bets Apart from extensive offers on football, Betfred accepts bets on various sports such as tennis, rugby, cricket and horse and dog races, among others. Betters can also place wagers on the outright winner of a rally or even a bowls match, for example. In addition to single and parlay bets on all major European football league matches, you can also make wagers on less common events such as a “KO in round 7” in boxing or “total 180s” in darts on Betfred.
Live bets are accepted on all major sporting events that are broadcast on British television. Whether football or golf, on the Betfred homepage you’ll find all upcoming events listed with the corresponding channel.
Games and more The Betfred software includes a casino (Betfred Casino) and a poker room (Betfred Poker), which are both well frequented. The poker room offers its users various kinds of poker, such as Omaha Hi/Lo and 7 Card Stud, as well as a poker school. At “Betfredlotto” you can make wagers on the outcome of lottery drawings from around the world and determine how many numbers within a drawing you want to bet on yourself. In the gaming section, players can test their knowledge with various quizzes or relax with a game of bingo. Information about the Website The website is available in English, Spanish and Chinese and has many extra features in addition to its extensive offering of bets. For racing enthusiasts, Betfred transmits live commentaries for all major horse and dog races and then places them online in a temporary archive for three days. In the “Sports Info” section, sport betters can catch up with the latest football, racing and golf results or look up future events in the calendar. Because the current legal situation in the United States does not allow American banks and credit card companies to transfer money to online bookmakers, Betfred does not accept wagers from US residents. Residents of Turkey are also barred from opening betting accounts.
