What is Parimatch all about?
Bonuses
Parimatch has pulled out all the stops to ensure you have a range of welcome bonuses to choose from. During our review, there were welcome bonuses for EPL betting (bet £5, get £30), football (bet £10 get £40), esports (bet £15, get £40), sports (bet £10, get £20) and horse racing (get up to £30 in free bets if your first bet loses).
Available sports
Parimatch’s roster of sports you can bet on is an impressive one and on par with its stablemates in the BetVictor sports betting roster. All of the big sports are present and correct and there’s a solid selection of smaller/niche sports, as well as a strong esports offering.
User experience and interface
As one of the BetVictor family of betting sites, Parimatch’s website and app are top-class in terms of layout, design and functionality. The site is easy to navigate, whether you’re on a desktop or a mobile device and placing bets on Parimatch is a piece of cake.
Mobile and app compatibility
The Parimatch app is among the better apps on the market, as it closely follows the template used by BetVictor and its other sports betting brands. Its users approve, too, with ratings of 4.8 on Apple’s App Store and 4.4 on the Google Play Store.
App Store: 4.8/5 stars (4.5k ratings)
Google Play: 4.4/5 stars (950 reviews)
VIP programmes and loyalty rewards
During our review of the Parimatch website and app, we could not find a VIP programme or rewards programme. However, their offers section did feature a horse racing promotion called 'run for your money', which gives existing customers a real cash refund if your horse ‘loses all chance’ at the start of a race, with refunds up to the value of £100. Other promotions are sure to appear at different points during the sporting year, too.
