Ladbrokes

Ladbrokes is one of the oldest and well established brands in the betting industry having its roots dating back to 1886. It’s also one of the first traditional bookmakers who went online. The Ladbrokes sports betting site has two versions, one is a traditional bookmaker and the other one is a betting exchange. It now employs 14,000 people and operates more than 2,800 betting shops in different countries. Its online sports betting site has more than 800,000 active registered users and has a revenue of more than a billion pounds a year.
Odds and Markets
Ladbrokes odds have an average rating to many punters. This means, they’re not the best in the market, but they’re also not one of the worst. Their high pay out rate and good reputation are among the other factors that draws punters to their site. But aside from that, they also boast one of the most comprehensive market coverage by any bookmaker. They not only offer odds on every major football league in almost every country in the world, they also offer odds on many little known football leagues especially in the UK and Ireland.
Website
In order to keep up with the recent advancements in technology, the Ladbrokes sportsbook was re-launched in 2013. The new site is powered by PlayTech, one of the leading suppliers of online gaming companies. It also uses the OpenBet platform from Orbis Technology. For customer data protection, they use SSL encryption certificates from VeriSign.
Navigation
Navigating the site will not be a problem for Ladbrokes users as it uses the same layout that most online sports betting sites use. The new Ladbrokes website is available in more than 20 languages and the odds can be viewed in either decimal, fractional, or American formats.
Mobile Betting
Ladbrokes was one of the first sportsbooks to have a mobile version of its site. It’s also one of the first to launch its own app for smartphones. In 2009, the Ladbrokes mobile app for the iPhone was launched. With it, users can manage their account and place bets anywhere they are. The app is now available on Android and Windows.
Live Streams
Ladbrokes live betting is available for both the sportsbook and betting exchange versions of the site. Both sites offers more than a dozen live in-play events everyday. Ladbrokes live streams are also available for customers who have funds in their account.
