Best UK betting sites November 2026: top 20 ranked

The QuickBet sign up offer is a £25 free bet when you deposit £10 and place a first bet of £10 or more at odds of 6/4 (2.50) or bigger. Like Ladbrokes, the welcome offer is six £5 free bets for a £5 first bet. The £5 qualifying bet for the welcome offer is one of the lowest here, and the free bets come as six £5 tokens, so you can spread them across several bets. Ladbrokes is one of the oldest names in British betting, and its iOS app is among the best rated on this list at 4.7/5. The Ladbrokes sign up offer is £30 in free bets when you bet £5, credited as 6 x £5 free bets.

• Sky Bet is the strongest pick for active football bettors placing £30+ a week who want loyalty rewards layered on top.
• Tote covers UK, Irish and international racing from France, Italy, Australia and South Africa, with live streaming on all of it.
• There is no Best Odds Guaranteed and there are no racing-specific promotions, so racing punters will find more value with BetVickers or the Tote Guarantee.
• The iOS app rates 4.7/5, among the highest on this list, and bet365 also tops our ranking of the best betting apps in the UK.
• Bet365 rates 4.7/5 on the App Store but 1.3/5 on Trustpilot, where most complaints are about verification and account restrictions rather than the betting itself.

Where BetMGM could improve

Live streaming covers horse and greyhound racing only, with no football. #PickYourPunt lets punters build custom football bets, similar to William Hill’s #YourOdds but with broader market coverage.

Bally Bet suits punters who build Accas and Bet Builders, plus boxing, UFC and MMA bettors given the market depth on offer. BetMGM suits bettors who value app quality and want the Golden Goals upside alongside their regular betting.

BOG applies to UK and Irish horse racing from 8am, with no max benefit cap stated. The iOS app rates 4.7/5, among the highest on this list, and bet365 also tops our ranking of the best betting apps in the UK. Also ranking top among the UK bookmakers for football betting, bet365’s Bet Builder+ is another standout. The in-play interface shows detailed player, in-game, and timeline stats with play-by-play animation for non-livestreaming events.

LuckyMate odds, markets and promotions
