Betbeard

Betbeard is an all-encompassing gaming and betting site, offering sportsbook facilities and casino games to players. There’s also a live casino in place, as well as esports markets. The site is operated through Galaxy Group, and the casino has even won recognition for being one of the most promising bitcoin casinos online. 

While Betbeard appears to be mainly focused on sports, its casino offerings are well-stocked (we will take a closer look further on in our review below). The site offers a grey and white color scheme, and the casino’s navigation setup tends to work best on mobile play. The site’s ‘beard’ theme isn’t intrusive, with the casino choosing instead to focus on offering a streamlined gaming experience.

Navigation-wise, we experienced a handful of issues in desktop mode due to scrolling – but there are no issues when using other devices. What’s more, these concerns don’t detract from the overall experience. 

Games

Betbeard supports more than 3,400 different games at the time of writing, with the vast majority of these being slot titles. The site provides a handful of casino tables elsewhere, though there is also a full live dealer lounge accessible through the main navigation bar at the top of the site.

Some of the most popular games available to play at Betbeard at the time of writing include Elvis Frog in Vegas, Lucky Lady Moon, 7 Piggies, Motorhead, Triple Dragon, Book of Egypt, and – of course – Gonzo’s Quest. The casino makes it simple for players to filter down into different games, types, styles and more.

Betbeard also benefits from having a large selection of games providers working behind the scenes, with NetEnt, Spinomenal, Playtech, Yggdrasil, Pragmatic Play, Thunderkick, Nolimit City, ELK Studios and more backing up the site’s catalog. These are names that many players will recognise, and can filter through when exploring the main site.

The live casino lounge at Betbeard runs separately to the slots offering, with games such as live twists on roulette, blackjack and craps available. The live dealer lounge is backed by specialist gaming brands such as 7Mojos, Evolution Gaming, TVBet, Ezugi and Absolute Live Gaming.

Payments and Withdrawals

Banking methods accepted at Betbeard include MasterCard, Visa, Interac, EPS, Neteller, Skrill, Klarna and Paysafecard.

There’s a higher withdrawal limit than most at Betbeard, with a monthly cap of €100,000 available to all customers. To withdraw, you will normally need to wait around five business days. Beyond this, e-wallet customers will see money returned within 24 hours of their request, while card and bank transfer users will normally have to wait a little longer.

As always, it’s important to keep a close eye on terms and conditions for banking before you choose a deposit and/or withdrawal method for the first time.

Mobile Play

Betbeard is one of several modern casinos and sportsbooks that is designed for mobile first, with its main catalog and navigation system built for smaller devices. There’s no official or native Betbeard app available to download at the time of writing, which means players simply need to head straight to log into their accounts via the main website on their chosen browser.

Betbeard mobile play is smooth and fast, with the site morphing to fit the vast majority of devices that access the casino. The casino and catalog work best on mobile mode, with our testing finding that portable access and play are more reliable than browsing in desktop mode. There are no additional downloads or apps needed to play.

Support

Betbeard has received an accolade for its customer service and care, which at present seems to run purely through live chat. This is easy to access through the main hub of the site at any time. 

Verdict

Betbeard is a creative sportsbook, betting lounge and online slots site that goes against the grain in many respects. The main focus of the site is on its sports betting markets and odds, though the casino and live dealer lounge still has plenty to offer new players. The mobile version of the site is the best to head to – and while there may not be a Betbeard app right now, it is smooth and speedy enough to use for account management and gameplay.

Betbeard is a site that’s been around for some time and still has room to grow. It supports a wide reach in terms of banking options as well as games providers, though as always, make sure to read any terms and conditions relating to bonuses and banking before you get started.
