Matchbook Review
Matchbook is an up and coming betting exchange that is looking to deal with the demand for more and more betting exchanges. A lot of people are turning to betting exchanges, instead of placing bets with normal bookmakers, but do they have what you need to sign up?
Welcome Bonus
Although Matchbook is a betting exchange, they offer a great welcome bonus to new players who join them. New players are entitled to cashback up to the value of £500 on the commission they have paid in the first five weeks betting with them. This is a great offer and big players who go to Matchbook have the chance to earn a lot of cashback through this scheme if they are placing a lot of bets on the site. Make sure you tell your crew to spread the word about this great offer.
Available Markets
Matchbook cover a wide variety of sports, although not as many as some bookmakers. They have all the popular sports like horse racing and football, alongside many smaller sports like baseball and snooker.
When you log on to the Matchbook website you will see the most popular sports listed on the left hand side of the page, giving you quick access if that is what you want to bet on. The most popular games of the day are all listed on the home page right in the middle of the screen, including those that are in-play, so you don’t have to go hunting around to bet on the big game.
In Play Betting
The in-play section of the Matchbook website can be found by pressing the live betting menu on the left hand side of the page. This will take you into their live section, where you will pick what sport you would like to bet on. From here you can search through the most popular games, or narrow it down by selecting the country or league you want from the dropdown menu.
I like the live section of Matchbook and with so many games available to view on one screen, even a schmuck should be able to find what they need on this site.
Mobile Betting
If you want to bet with Matchbook while you are on the go then you will need to download their mobile app. This is available from their website for android phones, apple phones, other apple devices and even a special app for the apple watch. These all work great and allow you to quickly place your exchange bets while you are out on the move.
Promotions and Offers
Aside from their welcome bonus, Matchbook do not currently offer and promotions or offers to their customers. It is very unlikely they will do this in the future because they are a betting exchange.
Deposit Methods
The main way to deposit money into your betting account is with your debit or credit card. However, you can also use one of the many internet wallet payment types which Matchbook accepts. These are Neteller, Skrill and the Paysafecard, all of which are very common payment methods that you wiseguys will be able to deal with.
Customer Support
You can get in touch with the customer support team at Matchbook in three different ways. They have a live chat team that will help and they are found on the Matchbook website, or you can email the team on the email address listed. If you would rather phone them you can do and the phone number for Matchbook is listed below.

Summary
Matchbook have put together a very impressive betting exchange platform for a team that are new to the industry and still growing. They have a good welcome bonus available, which can sometimes be hard to find on betting exchange sites, although they do not offer any other promotions. The betting markets offered are good, with all the big angles covered and if you like in-play betting you are sure to love the vast amount of in-play markets they have. With many different ways to deposit into your account and a very good customer support team, the experience with Matchbook is rounded off very well.
