How we rate crypto sportsbooks

Every score on this site comes from the same six-part checklist. Here's exactly what goes into it, so you can judge our ratings — or apply the same checklist yourself to a site we haven't reviewed yet.

1. Licensing & regulation

We check for a currently valid gambling license from a recognized regulator and confirm the operator discloses it clearly on-site. No license, no listing — full stop.

2. Payout speed

We make a real deposit, place a small real bet, and time the withdrawal — across more than one coin where possible. Advertised "instant withdrawals" don't always hold up under testing.

3. Odds quality

We compare a basket of reference lines across major leagues against several other books to see whether a site is quietly offering worse prices than the market average.

4. Bonus fairness

We read the actual bonus terms: wagering multiplier, time limit, maximum bet size while wagering, and which sports/markets count. A big headline number with an unrealistic wagering requirement scores lower than a smaller, cleaner offer.

5. Coin support & fees

How many chains are supported, whether stablecoins are available, and whether network fees are passed on to the user at deposit or withdrawal.

6. Support quality

We contact support with a real question through live chat and email and time the response, checking whether the answer was actually useful.
