Bet365 Mobile Sports Betting
Bet365 is a sportsbook-first operator. This means sports betting is its first offering. In fact, it is the biggest sports betting provider in the world. To start betting on the platform, you need to download the “Bet365” App. As already mentioned, there are three apps available, and it is one of them. Bet365 mobile betting In my experience with mobile betting apps, bet365’s is clearly one of the best. It offers everything I need and I can even live stream sport and racing on my mobile. It’s available for iPhone and Android users and I couldn’t be more impressed with it.
Bet365 Sportsbook secured its place in the Colorado betting market through a partnership with Century Casinos, parent company of one property each in Cripple Creek and Central City.
Although it has not yet officially launched, we can provide an early Bet365 Colorado review based on its operations in New Jersey and elsewhere. Bet365 is very much a known entity having launched online betting for UK customers in 2000 and then coming to the US via its August 2019 launch in New Jersey.
In Colorado, Bet365 has applied for an internet sports betting license and should be approved without issue. The Bet365 brand holds licenses in numerous gaming jurisdictions and has a proven track record for safety, so we consider the license a forgone conclusion at this time.

Bet365 Colorado Launch Date
The launch of Bet365 Colorado is likely imminent, but company reps have not confirmed a start date. According to a recent press release, Bet365.com is in the process of acquiring a mobile sports betting license from the Limited Gaming Control Commission. Similar requests from other online betting providers have been processed fairly quickly to date and we expect the same for Bet365.
Century Casinos already holds the requisite master sports betting license required by Colorado law to offer in-person and online sports wagering. That leaves Bet365’s successful mobile betting application as the last piece in the puzzle needed to confirm a launch date.
Bet365 Colorado Bonuses and Promotions
Bet365 offers a welcome bonus worth up to $500 for new customers alongside a rotating variety of other promotions for existing customers. Bet365 bonuses are usually straightforward, which meshes well with CO sports betting regulations (1 CCR 207-2 in particular) that require all licensed operators to offer fair, honestly-explained promotions.
The Bet365 bonus tends is on par with the industry average in terms of total dollar amount offered but also tends to be easier to clear for withdrawal.
New Customers: Up to $500 in Bet Credits
New Bet365 customers who make a first deposit of $10 or more receive a matching amount in free bets for up to $500 in site credit. For instance, a customer who signs up and makes a $50 first deposit would receive a $50 bonus.
Bonus funds are cleared for wagering after placing a total sum of wagers equal to the qualifying deposit within 30 days of claiming the offer. Continuing the above example, a customer who deposits $50 will be able to wager his or her bonus funds after placing $50 worth of wagers.
The bonus money is treated as site credit and is not withdrawable, but customers are free to withdraw any money won by wagering the bonus. All winnings may be withdrawn immediately with no further strings attached.

Bet365 Mobile Sportsbook
Bet365 can be accessed online from any desktop or mobile device at www.Bet365.com or through mobile apps for iOS and Android.
The Bet365 app is organized in a manner similar to other sports betting apps but places more of a focus on simplicity and ease of use. The app is one of the few designed entirely in-house, which gives Bet365 complete control over the look, feel and function of the mobile interface. The end result is an app that is easy to navigate even if it doesn’t look as modern as some of the competition.
The homepage greets users with the usual listings of the day’s popular leagues, upcoming games and quick navigation jumps to in-play betting events that are currently open for action. Users can tap the bar chart icon next to any match to view a handy overview of head-to-head stats for that game. The breadth of stats varies from game to game, but generally customers can see each team’s record against one another, average point total against one another, outcomes of their last meetings and more.
Other features include in-play betting, live scoring updates and live video streams for select games. Overall, this app ranks very highly in usability and about average in terms of presentation.

In-Play Betting Review
It would be fair to say in-play betting is Bet365’s main selling point both in terms of markets offered and the number of events covered each day.
Bet365 consistently provides in excess of 100 in-play betting events per day, even during slow sporting weeks. In-play options cover all major North American sports plus a large number of international events that run the gamut from German soccer leagues to darts.
The betting markets offered for each in-play event are similarly diverse with a range of options that include full-time results on the outcome of each game, alternative totals, part-time scoring predictions, the first team to reach a certain number of points and other short-term wagers that are resolved within the next few minutes.
Real time scoring stats are provided throughout each game and are accompanied in some cases with streaming video or live visualizations of what’s happening on the field. Live betting MLB games, for example, are accompanied with a depiction of the catcher’s point of view showing the outcome of every pitch.
Customer Support
The Bet365 mobile apps and website provide self-help through an extensive FAQ that can answer most questions related to technical issues, house rules, bonus policies, deposits, withdrawals and even taxes.
Customers who need additional support can contact a live rep via 24/7 live chat, phone and e-mail.
