Expekt

Expekt has been in business since 1999 and is one of the longest established bookmakers. Previously founded in Sweden but now based in Malta, this online betting site has over a million users and continuously provides its services across more than 100 countries. As a result, it is arguably the most popular platform on the European continent. This is evidenced by the massive influx of customers from Scandinavia, Germany, Norway, the Czech Republic and Sweden. A reputation of this magnitude deserves a more objective examination of the web.

Operating License

Currently, Expekt operates under two types of license to legally excel. Indeed, the operator holds both a license issued by the United Kingdom Gambling Commission (UKGC) and the Malta Gaming Authority. The brand remains strictly subject to the regulations imposed by each of the regulatory bodies. By using SSL encryption while adopting the 3D Secure protocol, the site is highly compliant in protecting the personal and financial data of all its subscribers. In line with modern online sports betting industry standards, Expekt prides itself on being one of the most trusted sites in the sector.

Mobile application

Expekt offers mobile owners a choice of two options to enable them to play and place bets from any location at any time of the day. One is a website optimized for any screen size and accessed via the browser of a smartphone or tablet. On the other hand, the development of a native application compatible with the Android and iOS operating systems. Its advantages include a user-friendly interface with almost identical functionality to the desktop version. Both options make the gaming experience more comfortable, with easy navigation.

Users’ registration

In order to encourage more visitors to register on its platform, Expekt has made the procedure simple. The future member is free to create a profile, as long as he/she is of legal playing age and resides in a country where the portal has the legal right to operate. In principle, an account creation does not exceed two minutes, but it is important to follow the instructions when starting the process. Once you have accessed the bookmaker’s official page, you will have to select the registration button, which is located in the upper right corner of the screen. The rest of the steps consist of filling in the form fields with basic data, including email address, name, phone number and country of residence. For a definitive validation of the account, this necessarily involves a verification of the e-mail. After that, all that remains is to establish a connection and start betting.

Bonuses and promotions

Expekt welcomes new registrants with a 100% welcome bonus of up to £100 in the form of a free bet. In accordance with the wagering terms and conditions, a minimum deposit of £20 is required with odds of 1.80 or above.

The betting and sports offer

According to a recent analysis, Expekt’s betting market is particularly well known for its excellent selection of winter sports, with various competitions on the programme, such as ski jumping, ice hockey or downhill skiing. On the other hand, the bookmaker is able to offer all its participants the opportunity to place bets on a wide range of events. The list in the catalogue offers a multitude of bets on a variety of disciplines. As one of the best football bookmakers in Europe, many leagues are organized in major leagues such as La Liga, UEFA National League, Euro Cup and World Cup, to name a few. Of all the betting options offered at Expekt, the Asian handicap is the bookmaker’s strong point. There are also other popular sports such as baseball, tennis and basketball, as well as lesser-used sports such as darts, cricket and boxing. On the other hand, various e-sport tournaments (Dota2, Counter Strike, LOL U Masters, etc.) as well as bets on politics and TV shows complete the repertoire. For live fans, the “Live” section offers them a simultaneous display of the score as well as the match statistics for setting the next bets.

While the sports betting area was highly praised, the casino area is also sure to make an impression. During a break, the bettor has the advantage of information on the bet and maximum win of his previous bets, associated with the game selected in the game library. In total, this section contains over 300 slot machines designed by highly reputable software providers. Some of the most notable include Relax Gaming, Micro gaming, Pragmatic Play and NetEnt.
