❌ Cash-out settlements could be far more generous. Other books offer more.

❌ Winnings accounts do get limited, which can become an issue for regular winners.

The value of the odds, the variety of the betting lines, and the live-streaming on offer are what stand out the most about Bet365, and boy, are they important aspects to stand out on.

That aside, Bet365 may not be the best book for players that like to cash out often, as cashing out with them on a regular basis will leave you feeling short-changed. Betway is more generous in this regard.

We also don’t recommend Bet365 to pro bettors who are seasoned winners, as Bet365 can limit some of these accounts. If you're a seasoned winner, we'd have to recommend Pinnacle.

We’ve reviewed the Bet365 app in a separate article, and our findings were that it was one of the better mobile sports betting solutions in all of Canada. The app itself is easy to use, and ensures an all round sophisticated and seamless betting experience. Bet365’s app can be downloaded on Google Play and on the App Store.

After reviewing the app, we could only list the same cons that we could list for the site, because there were no glaring issues with the app itself. In fact, we preferred using the app over the desktop website.

If you're interested in downloading the app, but aren't too sure how, we've provided an article explaing how to download Bet365's app, with guides for android and iOS.

You will do well to find a bookmaker with more events and markets on display than Bet365. Dozens of sports feature on the site for you to bet on, as well as special markets for politics, awards, and television.

Even for sports that are typically less popular in Canada such as darts, snooker, cricket and rugby, there is no shortage of markets, and if you do want to play on player props or correct scores in these events, the option is there on Bet365.

Below is an overview of some of the most prominent sports on Bet365 in Canada.

While we have a lot of good things to say about Bet365, we don’t want your decision to sign up with them or not to be only influenced by what we here at My Betting Sites have to think. So, we’ve enlisted the help of some of our friends.

We’ve scoured Reddit forums, and checked comments left on the App Store to see what the consensus is regarding Bet365. We had plans to look at Trustpilot and Google Play as well, but no reviews currently exist for Bet365 Canada on those platforms.

So, do people think it’s as good as we think it is? Are our estimations off compared to others who have used the site? You can find more about what others think below:

Reddit is one of the most popular sites for sports bettors to post any issues they’ve come across, with an army of other users that provide their own experiences.

We searched forums on Reddit that touched on Bet365, and found three that summed up what you can find there.

“They'll limit the account if you aren't profitable for them, like beating the closing line regularly or finding a profitable niche market.

"They'll ban the account for breaking the TOS, like giving someone access to your account.”

The app store can provide users with plenty of insights. Bet365’s app store score (4.6/5) is one of the highest among betting apps in Canada, only being trumped by the likes of Betway and LeoVegas.

What does set Bet365’s app store reviews apart is the fact that there are many users that have left positive reviews of the app. The same cannot be said for Proline OLG for example. Here's a comment, followed by Ben's response.

“A Joke.

“Forcibly switched me over to the Canadian app, lost all my historical bets. Now won’t accept my verification. Can’t even withdraw my money now.”

With Bet365 having been a grey market offshore bookmaker, to having now received the license in Ontario, there are many questions surrounding the bookmaker that we felt necessary to answer.

Below, you can find some of the most commonly asked questions surrounding Bet365 we’ve come across.

Is Bet365 available throughout Canada?

Bet365 operates pursuant to an agreement with iGaming Ontario, that enables them to operate within Ontario on a specific URL (https://on.bet365.ca), as well as outside the province on a different URL (https://bet365.com).

So, in summary, Bet365 is indeed available throughout Canada.

Is Bet365 legal?

Bet365 is legal within the province of Ontario. It has acquired the Ontario license.

As for Bet365’s legal status within the rest of the country, the sportsbook is not illegal to use. There is no law within Canada’s criminal code that outlaws sports betting on grey market bookmakers, so if you are outside of Ontario, and want to use Bet365, you would not be breaking any laws. You can read more about Bet365's legal break down in our article answering whether Bet365 is legit.

Is Bet365 Canada’s best betting site?

That largely depends on who you ask. If you read our section where we assessed some Reddit comments that have been posted about Bet365 in Canada, you’ll get mixed reviews.

Some think it’s the best (like Ben), while others think Betway, or other betting sites are better.

What we can say, with utmost confidence, is that Bet365 is one of the best betting sites in Canada. It appeals to a wide range of sports bettors, which is why many players (but not all) will share in the belief that it is indeed the best.

Is Bet365 legal in Ontario?

Bet365 is indeed legal in Ontario, and has been since April 2022.

When we began this review, we posed a question. Is Bet365 still the best betting site in Canada, after a range of new brands have entered the market?

We think it is. It’s hard to say one betting site is out-and-out best for all players, but Bet365 just ticks so many boxes, and appeals to such a wide range of sports bettors.
