Sports Book Info
Overview
BetOwi was founded in 2011 in San Jose, Costa Rica. They have quickly become one of the industry's top online sportsbooks for people who are serious about sports betting especially Americans. The Sportsbook Director and General Manager of BetOwi, Dan Panella, has a big hand in helping the online sports wagering site gain traction as they continue to bolster its large array of gaming offerings across the globe. Look for nothing but fun and games from this operator.
Banking Options
An array of payment options is offered, including cryptocurrency, to accommodate customers.
Deposit Methods: Bitcoins, Ethereum, Dash, Cardano, Stellar, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ripple, Pre-Paid Gift Card, Walmart - 2 - Walmart, Western Union, Money Gram, Bank-to-Bank-Transfer, Cash - Bank - Deposits, Money Order, Paypal - to - Paypal, and Zelle - Pay.
All deposits are subject to processing fees, which are credited back as free play on deposits of $100 or more.
Withdrawal Methods: Bitcoins, Ethereum, Dash, Cardano, Stellar, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ripple, Pre-Paid Gift Card, Walmart - 2 - Walmart, Western Union, Money Gram, Bank-to-Bank-Transfer, Cash - Bank - Deposits, Money Order, Paypal - to - Paypal, and Zelle - Pay.
Limits are placed on wagers and wins based on the bet type. We recommend reading through those limitations prior to depositing and placing a bet, especially if you’re a high roller. Unfortunately, the terms lack quite a bit of information with regard to deposit limits, withdrawal rules and more. It’s not quite as transparent as we’d expect, but then again it is an unlicensed online operator.
Featured Sports
Bet on global sporting events as well as top USA leagues with a wide selection of distinctive types of bets per sport and/or event.
The sporting events and other entertainment events they cover include Baseball – MLB, Basketball – NBA, boxing, MMA, NCAA Basketball, FIBA, Ice Hockey – NHL, Football – NFL & NCAA Football, soccer, tennis and golf.
This online gaming provider does not yet offer live in-game betting where you can place bets on events that are already playing and are live in nature. It’s currently undergoing testing as of November 2022.
Race Book
BetOwi also accepts wagers on horse races from prominent tracks around The United States such as Churchill Downs, Belmont Park, Arlington and Hawthorne Park. Check the racebook tab for a list of active race tracks and a calendar of events.
Note: free play may not be used for horse racing bets.
Other Gaming Options
In addition to sports betting services the Bet Owi sportsbook also features a great online casino that runs casino games including Poker, Baccarat, Blackjack, Hi Lo, Rocket Dice, Poker, Roulette, Slots, Dice, Table Games, Video Bingo, Craps, Video Poker, Video Slots, and other popular table games too.
Promotions
When it comes to promotions, there are few listed on the site. Users are greeted with a “to be announced” message when visiting the promotions page. The only offer we found, was a match bonus for cryptocurrency deposits. We hope to see more offers posted in the coming weeks.
Loyalty Program
At the moment there is no rewards/loyalty program. At the time of writing this review, we verified that the feature is not fully updated and it says “to be announced” when clicking on the rewards link. Hopefully, in the future, they will have this aspect along with several others up and running properly.

Wrapping it Up
Overall, the website is easy to navigate and frequently updated, while it provides the standard sports betting options with very comparable as well as competitive odds.
One thing or two that they could improve on is their lack of live and in-play betting. Nowadays as we venture into the future micro-betting, which will involve completely up to the nano-second live streaming (even more of a live feed than on tv these days) with a bunch of betting options per play or series of plays to place wagers on. There is also a lack of promotions and a loyalty program. For now, this cookie-cutter platform gives you almost everything a sports bettor wants.
There are concerns regarding the lack of clear terms and conditions especially when it comes to the rules of cashier – fees, limitations, etc. Just keep in mind the lack of a valid iGaming license.
