Rankings

Best for: Bettors who price lines and want the lowest margin

Pinnacle built its name on thin margins and a welcome for sharp bettors. We check what that reputation rests on, what it costs to withdraw, and where you cannot use it.

Best for: Price-conscious, higher-staking bettors who value limits over features

Circa Sports skips welcome offers, takes bigger bets than most US books and says it does not ban winners. We weighed that against a bare app, thin banking and a three-and-a-half-star store rating.

Best for: UK bettors who want to compare bookmaker prices before every bet

Oddschecker compared prices long before apps copied it. With OC+ now free, we looked at what you get without paying, what the old tiers cost, and how affiliate offers shape the page you start from.

Best for: Experienced bettors who want to back and lay at exchange prices

Betfair Exchange lets you back and lay against other bettors and pays a commission on net winnings. We worked through the maths against a bookmaker line, and what the 2025 fee change means.

Best for: High-volume prop and futures bettors who want models

Unabated sells props, simulators, DFS entry building and an odds API from $99 a month. We look at the plan ladder, the free calculators and who earns that fee back.

Best for: Live bettors who already hold an account at a larger US book

bet365 is a British giant with one of the deepest in-play menus anywhere and a US footprint much smaller than DraftKings or FanDuel. We weighed live markets, early payouts and its payout record against reach.

Best for: Bettors spread over several sportsbooks who want one ledger

Pikkit imports bets from more than 30 sportsbooks and DFS apps for free. We read what the $29.99 a month Pro plan adds and who would actually recover that cost.

Best for: Best ball and draft players who also want pick'em

Underdog sells pick'em entries from $1, drafts and best ball, and its own published results show most beginners lose. We weigh the all-in-one pitch against PrizePicks.

Best for: Bettors who want visible pricing and a CFTC-overseen venue

Kalshi sells yes/no contracts that pay $1, including on sports. We checked how its fee formula compares with a sportsbook's margin, and where the legal footing is still unsettled.

Best for: Price-sensitive bettors who mostly play major-league sides and totals

ProphetX lets you post your own price against other bettors and charges 2% on net winnings of straight trades. We priced its spread against four US sportsbooks and weighed it against thin props and locked funds.

Best for: Cost-aware traders who can make limit orders and read an order book

Polymarket charges takers 5% of p x (1-p) on sports and nothing on makers. We ran the fee maths against Kalshi and a standard -110 sportsbook line to see who really pays less.

Best for: Price-sensitive bettors who already compare lines across books

Novig trades sports contracts bettor-to-bettor on an order book instead of selling you a priced line. We checked what the CFTC designation changes, what it does not, and where the savings depend on liquidity.

Best for: UK and Irish racing and football bettors who like regular promotions

Paddy Power's money-back specials and Best Odds Guaranteed make it the UK's most promotional bookmaker. We run the numbers on whether a refund as a free bet beats a better price elsewhere.

Best for: In-play football and tennis bettors who want streams and Cash Out

Unibet UK's strength is the in-play package: Unibet TV streams, Cash Out and Action Betting. We read the odds-boost rules and the live terms to see where it beats the crowded UK field and where it stops.

Best for: UK racing punters who want a price-guarantee second account

Betfred's racing concessions are the reason to keep a second account there. We checked the Best Odds Guaranteed terms, the Bet £10 Get £50 offer and the regulatory record.

Best for: UK racing and football bettors who want an exchange option and £5 deposits

Ladbrokes and Coral share an owner and a platform. We compare their prices, offers and apps, using a 6.26% Premier League overround and the £5.9 million fine on Ladbrokes Coral's record.

Best for: Patient, disciplined bettors with enough bankroll to cover a €99 monthly fee

RebelBetting sells a prematch value bet and sure bet scanner at €99 or €199 a month. We worked out the turnover needed to cover the fee and weighed it against how fast soft bookmakers restrict winners.

Best for: Line shoppers who want a free multi-book screen before paying for +EV tools

OddsShopper gives away a live odds screen on a 60-second refresh and sells Pro at $149.95 a month by its own account. We tested whether it is a credible budget alternative to OddsJam and did the break-even maths.

Best for: Parlay and same-game parlay bettors who value a rebate on every bet

Fanatics returns FanCash on every bet, win or lose, at rates reported from 1% to 10% of stake. We price that against the margin on parlays and ask whether it beats rival rewards programs.

Best for: UK racing bettors who want a guaranteed price and free streams

Coral is a Joe Coral business from 1926, now owned by Entain. We checked its racing guarantee, its £30 free-bet offer, payout speeds and the football edge to see whether it earns a regular UK account.

Best for: Florida bettors, and anyone shopping a third book for NFL and NBA lines

Hard Rock Bet is the only sportsbook operating in Florida and live in about nine other states. We weigh its pricing, boosts, $10 minimums and withdrawal speeds against FanDuel and DraftKings.

Best for: Bettors who want an automatic tracker and checkable tipster records

Juice Reel syncs sportsbook accounts so every pick is verified and ranked by real results. We looked at what that proves, what it cannot, and how sellers and buyers pay.

Best for: UK racing punters who play exotic pool bets or back outsiders late

The Tote pays out of a shared pool, with a Tote Guarantee that matches or beats SP on win bets. We compared that promise with bookmaker Best Odds Guaranteed and showed what a pool deduction does to a price.

Best for: New daily fantasy players who want simple lineups and low stakes

FanDuel Fantasy uses a flat $60,000 cap, simple lineups and beginner-only contests. We compared it with DraftKings on contest variety, scoring and the rake a casual player pays.

Best for: Regular prop bettors who stake enough to cover a subscription

Outlier pairs free betting calculators with paid plans from $19.99 to $79.99 a month. We price the EV and arbitrage feeds against what a casual bettor can realistically win back.

Best for: New York racing fans who mostly bet NYRA tracks

NYRA Bets is the New York Racing Association's own wagering app. We worked out what its points are worth, where the streaming helps, and when a rebate shop beats it.

Best for: Exchange users who want a cheaper second book to compare prices

Matchbook charges about 2% on net winnings and runs a mobile-first exchange. We weigh that rate against Betfair's depth, the 2020 licence suspension and the fine print on its free-commission offers.

Best for: Newer horse bettors who want simple exotic tickets

FanDuel Racing is the former TVG, a horse-wagering app whose big selling point was TV coverage. That coverage is being wound down, so we checked what a bettor still gets and which facts we could only find dated 2022.

Best for: Serious handicappers who use ABC, dutching and conditional wagering

AmWager pays points that convert at 1,600 to the dollar, which works out to a rebate between 0.25% and 1.25% of handle. We priced each tier and tested the case for a high-volume switch.

Best for: Prop bettors who stake several thousand dollars a year and shop lines

BettingPros offers free odds from 10+ books and a Plus tier at $9.99 a month billed yearly. We worked out the turnover a casual bettor needs to earn the fee back and checked what the ratings prove.

Best for: Disciplined bettors with enough bankroll to cover a monthly fee

OddsJam scans sportsbook prices for positive-EV bets, arbitrage and middles. We looked at what it promises, where its pricing is hidden, and the break-even maths for a small bankroll.

Best for: Experienced UK bettors who understand buy and sell spreads and can set strict stakes

Spreadex has been a UK bookmaker since 1999 and sells sports spread bets next to fixed odds. We worked through a total-goals example to show how a spread bet can cost many times your stake.

Best for: Bettors who mostly play Stronach tracks and want streams and promos in one app

1/ST BET is the Xpressbet successor run by the company behind Santa Anita and Gulfstream. It streams 300-plus tracks and runs tidy multi-race pools, but we found no rebate schedule and a $5 card fee.

Best for: Existing Sleeper fantasy players adding a few pick'em entries

Sleeper built its name on free season-long fantasy leagues, then added Picks for paid pick'em entries. We checked how much of the pick'em product stands up without the fantasy crowd behind it.

Best for: Casual players who stick to small-stakes cash games and free contests

DraftKings DFS offers every contest type from $1 head-to-heads to $20 Millionaire Makers. We looked at the payout maths and the pro-concentration data to see if an average player can win.

Best for: Existing Robinhood users who want occasional event contracts

Robinhood puts event contracts, including sports, next to your stocks. We work through the reported $0.01 plus $0.01 per-contract fee and show where it beats a sportsbook margin and where it does not.

Best for: Casual players who want a simple props app and a second pick'em account

Betr Picks pays 3x for two correct picks in one published table, where a fair coin flip would pay 4x. We compared its multipliers, two wallets and 31-state reach with PrizePicks and Underdog.

Best for: Daily bettors who want money-versus-ticket splits and alerts

Action Network PRO sells money percentages, projections and sharp-action alerts from $119.99 a year. We priced the plans, saw what stays free, and asked what a bettor must win back.

Best for: Esports bettors who want a modern app and a long list of titles

Midnite offers a quick app, a deep esports menu and a Bet £10, Get £30 welcome deal. We priced one live esports market and found a 9.9% overround, so the polish does not guarantee a better price.

Best for: Casual pick'em players who want low minimums and a chat room

Dabble pairs over/under pick'em with a copy-entry feed, live chat and a $0.05 Copy Cash payout. We checked whether the social layer adds value, then ran the payout table against a fair coin flip.

Best for: Existing Crypto.com users who want sports contracts in one account

Crypto.com Predict lists sports event contracts through a CFTC-regulated exchange. We worked through the fee formula, the cost of exiting early and who benefits if they already hold a Crypto.com account.

Best for: Experienced bettors who can absorb losses larger than their stake

Sporting Index sells sports spread bets and fixed odds. We worked through goal and minutes quotes to show the downside, priced four football lines at 4.3% to 5.3% overround, and checked the CMA ownership story.

Best for: Casual prop fans who treat entries as paid entertainment

PrizePicks turns player props into multiplier entries from $5. We worked out what each Power Play and Flex payout implies, and what a coin-flip pick is really worth.

Best for: Existing ESPN Bet users and bettors who follow theScore's news app

PENN moved ESPN Bet customers to theScore Bet on December 1, 2025. We looked at what changed, what did not, the $1,000 Bet Reset offer, and the app's ratings.

Best for: Existing DraftKings users who want a few event contracts in one app

DraftKings Predictions sells yes/no event contracts inside the DraftKings app. Comparison sites disagree on its fees and state map, so we set out what each claims and where Kalshi is cheaper.

Best for: Line shoppers in its 11 states who want a spare account

Bally Bet runs on Kambi in 11 states with 20-cent lines on major markets and a $10 stake for $50 in bonus bets. We weigh it as a line-shopping account against thin props and withdrawal complaints.

Best for: Existing UK customers who value the shops and the brand

William Hill is one of Britain's oldest bookmakers, now owned by debt-laden Evoke. We could not load its own site to compare prices, so this review weighs the owner, the regulator's record and what that means for a customer.

Best for: Adults in states without legal sportsbooks who want a free pick game

Fliff lets you pick sports for free with Coins and Fliff Cash, then redeem winnings for real money. We read its rules: a 50-credit minimum, 1x play-through, ID checks and 21 excluded states.

Best for: Single-sport bettors who want a model's opinion beside their own research

BetQL sells model ratings and sharp-action indicators from $19.99 a month for one sport to $299.99 a year for all. We could not find an audited record, so we tested the only figure available and priced every plan.

Best for: Casual bettors who want one free AI pick a day to compare against their own

Leans.ai sells AI picks from a model called Remi, with a free pick a day and paid tiers. We checked its published record against itself, and against the 52.4% break-even.
