Deposit & Payout
Surprisingly, but the first brand to accept credit cards is easily accepting now Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. They seem to be liking to introduce new things into their 20 years old bookie. Which is a great thing by the way, but honestly many won’t mind having more payment systems at their disposal. Unfortunately, that’s not an option now. Customer support is available via phone, live chat and email: [email protected]
Mobile Betting & Site Usability
Sportsbook.ag’s website is quite good. It has black, white and yellow coloring. The list of sports is on the left. On the right is the bet ticket. They also have an app for iOS and Android. It’s nice to be able to bet on the go. This is definitely a huge advantage.
Conclusion
Sportsbook.ag is a very controversial bookie. There have been some cases of account freeze of winners in the past and therefore many complaints. Despide of the company changing owners many bettors still have a bitter taste of the way the bookie did business back in the days. It’s definitely unfair to judge them by someone else's deeds, but this industry is too crowded for pity. Sportsbook.ag grew up a lot, but they seem to be a place for recreational betting only.
