After you have done this, click on the orange “NEXT STEP” button. As soon as you have registered, the betting site will send you an account verification code via email and SMS.

You must enter this code in order to continue. As soon as your account has been verified via this code, you will be redirected to LeoVegas’ deposit page.

𝓀 The site may ask you to upload documents showing Proof of Identity and Proof of Address at a later stage.

Just like any other bookmaker, to deposit funds into your LeoVegas account, click on the “Deposit” option at the top left hand side of your screen.🐷 You can choose from a wide variety of payment methods to deposit, these being Visa, Mastercard, bank deposit, Apple Pay, and PayPal.

Keep in mind that the use of Credit Cards has been banned as a whole from 14th April 2020 onwards.

LeoVegas offers an excellent welcome bonus, which allows you to win up to 100 GBP in extra winnings on your first Sports Bet as a 100% Profit Boost. This offer applies to bets placed via mobile only.

In order to be eligible, you must deposit a minimum of 10 GBP into your LeoVegas account and claim the Profit Boost via the betting site’s “My Offers” page. You must place a stake on odds of 1/1 or more up to a maximum of 10 GBP,✃ and tick the “Profit Boost” button at the bottom of your bet slip. A stake exceeding the 10 GBP mark will not count.

You must place the qualifying bet within 7 days of making your first deposit.

Payments made via Neteller and Skrill do not qualify for the welcome offer.

At the time of writing, LeoVegas is only offering 2 sport-related promotional offers. One of these is the Profit Boost.🍌 If you place at least five 10 GBP or more in-play bets in a week, at odds of 1/1 or higher, you will receive a Profit Boost and a chance to rake in up to 100 GBP in extra winnings.

Here is how the Profit Boost system works:

Bear in mind that this promotional offer only counts towards bets placed via a mobile phone.

There are also several other promotional offers for the LeoVegas Casino and Slots. For constantly updated info on LeoVegas promos, check out our LeoVegas bonuses page.

LeoVegas offers odds on over 25 sports, including the most popular ones like football, tennis, and cricketღ, among others. Unique sports markets, like bandy, snooker and sumo are also available, so it's very likely that you'll find what you're looking for here, no matter your preferences.

LeoVegas offers its players a wide variety of superb sports betting features, including “Trending Combo”, “Season Bets”, and “Leo Boosts”. “Trending Combo” refers to a set of combinations which are currently trending on LeoVegas, while “Season Bets” refer to bets which run their course throughout an entire sports season. “Leo Boosts” ಌis a section which is dedicated to a selected combination of selections with boosted odds.

Betting sites make a profit through what is known as the bookmaker’s margin, and you should look to place a bet on a betting variant with a margin nearer to the 100% mark. Betting variants with a margin exceeding the 110% mark are not worth punting on. To determine the bookmaker’s margin, you can calculate its Odds Overround.

ও To determine the Odds Overround for a bet, convert fractional odds into their decimal form, divide each individual outcome of a bet by 100, and add the resulting numbers together. You can determine the bookmaker’s margin for that betting variant via the result.

We worked out the quality of the odds on offer at LeoVegas by calculating the Odds Overround for a match to be contested in the UEFA Champions League. The Odds Overround were found to be, 105.48, ꧟which indicates that LeoVegas offers competitive odds and active sports markets.

Esports

LeoVegas offers odds on several popular local and esports international tournaments, with odds available on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2 and League of Legends.

ꦍ The minimum stake for an Esports market is also 0.1 GBP, while the maximum stake again depends on the odds that you are backing, the esports market that you have chosen, and the number of selections that you have made.

Other Specials

At the time of writing, LeoVegas is offering odds on Politics and TV & Novelty markets.

🦩 The minimum and maximum stakes for Specials markets are the same as they are for both spports and esports.

Cash Out and Bet Builder

At the time of writing, LeoVegas is offering its customers both Cash Out and Bet Builder.

Cash Out is an excellent betting feature which allows you to retrieve a placed bet if you feel that things aren't going your way during an in-play match. The amount of money retrieved depends on the odds in favour and the exact instance of cashing out your placed bet. ꧑You could end up winning more than your initially placed stake or less.

Bet Builder, on the other hand, allows you to combine several different selections and outcomes of your choice into one bet. As soon as you create a bet, LeoVegas will give you the odds.🍒 In a nutshell, Bet Builder allows a punter to create a bet with an innumerable number of different possibilities.

🅺 LeoVegas comes with a number of excellent features and offers, and is a bookmaker we would highly recommend to our readers.

First, let’s explore the betting site’s weakness, of which, to be fair, there aren't many. LeoVegas does not come with a feature to live stream sports, except for Greyhound Racing. There is no dedicated statistics section either.♌ Additionally, there are only 2 sport-related promotional offers, at the time of writing.

ꦗ When it comes to the betting site’s pros, there is a lot to enjoy. There is a number of sports, esports, and special markets to choose from, and a great Sportsbook app. Customers are also offered round-the-clock customer support and several Responsible Gambling tools.
