VBET Review
VBET Sportsbook Review
Advertising itself as the “territory of thrill”, vbet may not be known to the casual or even more experienced Canadian sports bettors — but perhaps it should. It offers competitive odds for most major sports, offers a wide variety of sports to actually bet on, and its mobile experience is among the best out there.
Read our full review on vbet to see why you should consider signing up for this sportsbook.

vbet Locations
vbet is available in over 120 countries, holding 10 licenses from various gaming authorities.
Sports Leagues to Bet On
vbet features a multitude of sports bettors enjoy wagering on. In fact, the wide variety of sports and betting markets that are available at vbet can be overwhelming at times.
NFL Betting
There is no shortage of markets for NFL fans to bet on at vbet. The main Moneyline, spread, and Over/Under markets are of course covered, and there are plenty of game and player props for each individual matchup. Their futures markets are limited — you’ll only be able to wager on the Super Bowl winner, conference winner, division winner, and “season specials” which at the time of writing is just if a team will go 17-0.
The options seem endless for the NFL, but the vig that you’ll pay on ML and spread bets is offputting. For player props, they’re actually better than popular sportsbook bet365 for markets like touchdown scorer but are paying at least eight cents or more of vig for receiving yards props.
NBA Betting
There's no shortage of betting options for NBA fans, as vbet offers ML, spread, and total plays for every game on the schedule. You can also wager on quarterly or halftime options and daily player props. You’ll even be able to bet on which team finishes with more rebounds assists, and three-pointers, which is something I haven’t seen at other sportsbooks.
College Football
vbet has ML, spread, and O/U plays for all Division I college football games on any given Saturday during the season, along with a large assortment of quarter-by-quarter or halftime plays. You can also wager on team props.
College Basketball
If you want to experience a college basketball sweat, vbet has you covered. ML, spread, O/U markets are of course offered for full-time and half-time in addition to team props like total points.
While they do offer college basketball and that should be commended. However, the selection is so bare that it's clear they do not put much effort into this sport. Its future bets are also limited, as it currently offers no markets for conference winners.
NHL Betting
vbet does well to appeal to the puckheads that preside in Canada, offering a healthy number of NHL hockey markets every day during the season and into the Stanley Cup playoffs. In addition to ML, puckline, and total plays, bettors have access to team and player props and period-specific betting markets.
The prices on its ML markets are surprisingly competitive, and I was shocked by how much better the odds offered for goalscorers were than at some other sportsbooks. It shows how much they care about Canadian customers if they’re putting this much effort into its NHL product.
MLB Betting
How do you make a summer afternoon even better? By firing up your vbet account and placing some baseball wagers. vbet offers comprehensive MLB markets for pre-game bets (ML, runline, total) and in-game action (five innings ML/RL, player props, team props).
Other Sports Leagues
For a lesser-known sportsbook, vbet offers a wide array of different sports and leagues of popular sports to bet on. If you like betting on basketball, you would expect odds for the NBA to be available. What you might not expect is access to odds from approximately 20 countries around the world. You’ll be able to wager on all five major European soccer leagues, plus MLS and other leagues from around the world. Tennis, UFC, NASCAR, golf, and e-Sports such as Dota 2 are also covered, and you can even bet on the outcomes of political elections if that interests you.
vbet has odds available for many sports you probably didn’t know had betting markets. They offer alpine skiing, bandy, water polo, snooker, squash, surfing, netball, floorball, kabaddi, and chess.
Online Betting Experience
Website Experience
The desktop experience for vbet can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but once you get the hang of it I found it to be a smooth experience for the most part. What’s nice about it is the option for different layouts. The “event view” is the standard one most bettors have come to expect — available sports on the left, betting markets in the middle, and bet slip on the right. The “live calendar” option is helpful for those who like to bet on popular sports but more obscure leagues. Select basketball for example, and not only will you get NBA and NCAA lines, but also games from Argentina and Panama. I’d love to see this sortable by player props, but as of right now only ML, spread, and totals are available.
The “results” page is confusing and frankly doesn’t belong on a betting site. The fact that it doesn’t show historical lines and just results mean bettors can just ignore this. Their “statistics” page has potential, but bettors may want to look at other spots for their numbers. They still have last season’s coaches live for some NHL teams!
Mobile Betting and Betting App
The vbet mobile app is one of the better betting apps I have come across doing these reviews. The colour scheme is a basic white and grey with orange text odds but it works well on the screen. Featured games, popular games, and upcoming matches are shown on the main page when you open the app, but you can easily sort by different sports and leagues by clicking the “games” button at the bottom. Live betting is also very easy on the mobile app, as all you have to do is hit the “live” tab on the games page.
The app is smooth, easy to use, and frankly a better experience than the desktop website. A lot of sportsbooks could take a lesson on how seamless the vbet app is.
Live Betting
Live betting at vbet is a straightforward process. On the desktop website, just click the “live” tab on the top left corner and you’ll have a great selection of live betting markets to choose from. Everything from soccer, basketball, hockey, e-Sports, and even archery shooting. On the mobile app, the live odds take a few seconds to load but once they do you’ll have the same selection as the website.
In terms of the actual live odds offered, they’re on par with other sportsbooks available to Canadians. In fact, they are sometimes better than Pinnacle.
Casino, Poker, & Other Gaming Options
vbet’s casino has plenty to keep you occupied. They offer approximately 135 slots, jackpots, and megaways to choose from in addition to 113 lottery games. vbet also has over 304 table games to choose from, way above some of our other top-rated sportsbooks.
Its live casino has 359 games to choose from, which includes everything from roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker, and even Andar Bahar. All casino and live casino games are sorted by gaming provider.
vbet History
vbet was founded in 2003 as a small shop in Yerevan, Armenia, and set up its first betting website in 2006 in that same country. They acquired their first European license from the Malta Gaming Authority in 2015, and licenses from National Gaming Authority in France and the UK Gambling Committee in 2017. In 2020, they partnered with the well-known French soccer team AS Monaco and with OGC Nice in 2022.
Customer Ratings & Reputation
vbet’s reputation amongst bettors is both good and bad. Praise for vbet goes especially towards the mobile app and the odds offered on most major sports leagues.
Complaints include issues with location verification, delayed payouts, and will limit you by asking for “proof of wealth” if you get on a hot streak, especially in less-wagered leagues.
Customer Service
vbet offers numerous ways to contact them should you have a question or concern. You can contact them by email, 24/7 live chat, or even by phone. I found their live chat to be super responsive and helpful, and much better than the automated service some sportsbooks advertise as “live chat” support. They also have a FAQ section but seem mostly to answer questions about what a live bet is rather than issues with your account.

Responsible Gambling
vbet has numerous resources dedicated to those struggling with problem gambling. They provide self-exclusion and time-outs for customers, with the player having to contact customer support to activate it. Timeouts can be for periods of 24 hours, one week, one month, or two months and self-exclusion can be from six months to five years according to our discretion.
Here are a few resources to help ensure you are gambling responsibly.
- ResponsibleGambling.org: The Responsible Gambling Council (RGC) is a respected, independent non-profit organization. They have been a leader in preventing problem gambling in Canada and globally for more than 35 years.
- BeGambleAware.org: offers free, confidential help and support to anyone worried about gambling for themselves or others.
- Gambling Therapy: a global service provided by Gordon Moody offering free emotional support and advice to anyone affected by gambling.
- Gamblers Anonymous: a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from a gambling problem.
Why Choose vbet?
vbet has a lot of things going for them. The quality of odds in some markets is close to and even beats some of the higher profile sportsbooks, and the mobile app is amongst one of the best out there. The sheer amount of sports leagues and casino games on offer is also a big plus.
If it can fix its desktop experience by making it a bit more user-friendly and navigable, plus improve its welcome bonus, vbet is onto a winning product. For someone looking to have another sportsbook as an option, you could do a whole lot worse than vbet.
