SUMMARY

Fafabet offers betting on over 30 sports including the big three of Football, horse racing and greyhounds as well as GAA Hurling which many Irish members will be delighted to find present in the sportsbook.

An introduction into Fafabet:

Fafabet is a fairly new addition onto the betting scene and has its work cut out if it is to make a serious impression on the market. However, the company has certainly made a good start. The bookmaker started operating in the winter of 2021 and is owned by Taichi Tech Limited who are based in Reading, England. Fafabet offer betting on a variety of sports and an online casino, similar to what most betting brands are launching onto the market. Users will be pleased to know that as well as a website, Fafabet is also available to download from the App Store on IOS but at the time of writing is not downloadable on android but can be accessed via the website which I will delve into now.

The Fafabet website and app layout:

When using the website, I found that it was easy to use thanks to its simplistic yet effective design allowing easy access to all areas of the site. The site has provided a considerable number of options to navigate, suiting many users with its extensive sportsbook and casino just to name a few. As you can see, Fafabet provides popular markets which enables users to quickly jump to the markets which are being bet on by other customers, such as Wimbledon 2023 which is approaching at the time of writing. ‘Login’ and ‘Join Now’ options are clearly visible in the top right corner with the ID verification process to setup an account taking up to 24 hours to complete. If you were to scroll past the Greyhound ‘signpost picks’ you would find the range of offers Fafabet has available such as a daily free bet and weekend insurance on your losses which are nice touches by the bookmaker. All in all, the website is high quality and easy to use unlike other betting sites and in just a few minutes users can expect to find the market or game they are willing to play.

Fafabet sports markets:

Arguably one of the most important things you need to know about any betting site is the sports markets available. Fafabet offers betting on over 30 sports including the big three of Football, horse racing and greyhounds as well as GAA Hurling which many Irish members will be delighted to find present in the sportsbook. Newly emerging markets such as esports are present on Fafabet too, which is considered one of the fastest growing markets due to the increasing popularity of the sport. Focussing on football, there is a great depth in the market with bets available on the Premier League, Irish Premier league and even the Copa Libertadores just to name a few, highlighting the superb range of leagues in the sportsbook. Elsewhere, more niche sports such as volleyball and table tennis are present in the sportsbook with Politics also there if members so wish to place a bet on this.

The casino:

Some members may prefer to utilise Fafabet’s casino where a large variety of slots such as Xtreme Lightning Roulette and Trojan Kingdom are available to play amongst the more traditional casino games of Roulette and Blackjack. Fafabet even has a separate section for the increasingly popular Live Casino. Live games, including live Blackjack, cover all budgets catering to all users from casual players to VIP members. One criticism could be the lack of a live Poker Hall with players seeking this casino game probably needing to look elsewhere.   

There are also hundreds of slots on Fafabet, such as Aussie Adventure, which allow members to win a range of prizes but there does appear to be some missing slots after looking through the seemingly endless list which is particularly difficult to navigate due to the absence of a filter which would allow members to search for slots by providers or even by alphabetical order if they wish to. For those who play slots and casino’s regularly, Fafabet offers a generous welcome bonus of up to €50 plus a €20 free bet subject to a deposit, meaning money must be spent to access the reward for setting up a Fafabet account. This appears to be one of the few bonuses of playing casino and may prevent many members from returning due to the reduced incentive to stake money without a reward.

Here are just a few of the slot games available at Fafabet:

  God of Fire  Aussie Adventure  Super X  Chilli Heat
  Lucky Clucks  Fortune Rush  Zombie Carnival  Treasure Wild
  Fruit Salad  Lucky Shot  Golden Rings  Jewel Rush

Fafabet payment methods:

While Fafabet allows deposits from debit cards Visa, Mastercard and Maestro it is fair to say other forms of payment are quite limited. Currently, major eWallets appear to be very limited, if not non-existent, although if users wish to link their Skrill or Neteller eWallets to their accounts they can. It would have been convenient to see payment options such as Apple Pay and PayPal but hopefully these will be added in the future. The minimum deposit amount is €10 which is pretty standard, but some users may prefer the €5 minimum deposit of other bookmakers. However, Fafabet withdrawals are seemingly instant which is extremely impressive compared to other sites where it can take a few days to receive your winnings. The payment options may be limited but the system is simple to use with fast withdrawal and deposit times and if you are happy to use a debit card then Fafabet is the right place to be.

One small issue is where your money is held when depositing and awaiting a withdrawal. According to the website, Fafabet holds customer funds in a Client Funds account held with Metro Bank. This appears to be fine, but it is noted that customer funds are not protected in the event of insolvency meaning if Fafabet were to suffer a financial hit they would not be able to pay the money they owe to their users in the form of winnings. This is just something to keep in mind when betting with Fafabet.

Here are a few of the payment methods you can utilise when betting with Fafabet:

  Visa Debit Cards  Mastercard  Maestro
  Skrill  Neteller  Prepaid Cards

Fafabet customer support:

All betting sites need to have a simple but effective customer support system in place to deal with any queries and issues users may have. How does Fafabet’s customer support work?

It appears that Fafabet prefer and guide users to email them for any support via an email address listed on the ‘contact us’ tab, which compared to the leading betting sites is easy to access – another positive feature of the Fafabet site. The responses to any questions are generally quick although it appears email is the only way to reach out to Fafabet with the absence of a ‘live chat’ feature or a telephone number leaving few options to contact customer support.

Fafabet also provide a list of FAQs which, whilst helpful in certain instances, could be expanded and answered in more detail, although users can email customer support to answer a particular question.

There are also separate sections containing betting and ‘virtuals’ rules as well as the terms and conditions which are standard of any betting site, but if you want to find anything else out its best to contact the customer support team.

Fafabet pros and cons:

Pros:

+ Plenty of markets in the sportsbook

+ Site is easy to use and navigate

+ Generous welcome bonus for signing up

+ Withdrawals are generally quick

Cons:

– Limited payment options

– Not available as an app for Android users

Conclusion:

Fafabet is just one of many betting sites on the market these days and will have to offer users something different to get them on board. The range of sports included in the sportsbook is definitely one feature that makes Fafabet stand out with football, horse racing and greyhounds heavily promoted on the site.

The generous welcome offer amongst other promos is also a hit and something for users to take advantage of, especially those who prefer to play the extensive range of casino and virtual games on the site. The casino itself could be improved by adding a greater variety of poker games with this area particularly lacking.

The pay options can definitely be expanded with more eWallet options, something that would allow payment from services such as Apple Pay which is becoming a popular method of payment in the present day. This can be easily implemented though and we hope Fafabet do this soon to improve the experience of using the site. Another addition could be the ‘live chat’ feature which as far as I can see is not there. This would allow for users to communicate issues to customer support in a more convenient way rather than the more traditional format currently being used by Fafabet.

All in all, Fafabet is worth trying out, so if you want to see what they offer then I recommend that you download the app or head online to the website. Fafabet could be the betting site that suits you and the way you like to bet.
