CBet was founded in 2019 and it is an extensive site that offers a wide range of betting and gaming options including esports betting, sports betting, Virtuals, Live Casino and its own casino.
In our CBet review, we will take a look at the main aspects of the site in more detail, to give you our unbiased view on what to expect when you sign up.
Let’s begin that process with a quick summary of what CBet has to offer.

Summary
Cbet is a solid site that has a good variety of options particularly for esports, soccer, virtual sports and particularly casino gaming. Add to that solid banking options, cryptocurrency being supported and a range of bonus offers to start you off, then there’s plenty to like.
However, our Cbet review also found a few small niggles, particularly the fact that you lose out on your deposit if you don’t play through your bonus and the deposit within 30 days of receiving the welcome offer. Losing the bonus is fair enough, but the deposit too? That is a tad harsh in my view.
That said the ongoing offer for cryptocurrency customers does make Cbet a great option for those that want to play via Bitcoin.
CBet Betting Markets
Esports Betting
Our CBet review is going to focus primarily on our key area of interest, esports and we’re delighted to say that the CBet esports site does offer an excellent range of bets across a wide range of tournaments and titles.
As is the case on most sites, the most popular games have the larger number of fixtures available and the bigger and more prestigious the tournament and fixture, the more markets you will find on that bet.
So what you will find is that CBet is one of the better CSGO betting sites in terms of the sheer number of fixtures and markets available, and it is also very good for a range of Dota 2 and LoL Bets too.
The site also covers other esports too, such as Valorant, StarCraft, Call of Duty and Overwatch.
Certainly, if Esports betting is your thing then CBet offers a good variety.
Sports Betting
As you would expect our CBet review is going to focus on one of the major parts of the site which is the sports betting section. This is very much focused on soccer, with all the major tournaments having quick links in the list on the left-hand side of the home page and the site does offer many more soccer bets than it does for any other sports.
That is not to say that other sports are sparse in comparison. The CBet sports betting service does cover a lot of sports and it does offer a good selection of fixtures on these sports, but in truth, they are not quite as extensive as you would find with some other providers.
Where the site does score well though is in offering bets on more specialist and difficult to find markets such as Kabaddi, Biathlon and Stock Car Racing.
Virtual Sports
CBet also offers an extensive suite of Virtual Sports games which includes an extensive selection of football-based virtual sports (there are six soccer-based Virtuals to play).
Alongside that half-dozen games are a selection of others including Horse Racing, Dog Racing, Basketball, Tennis and Baseball.
This is a relatively new part of the site with a number of these games only recently made available for customers to try out and as yet, there are no esports virtuals available to enjoy.
CBet Casino
The casino at CBet offers a massive choice of games to plat with almost 5,000 slots to choose from alone. These games come from many of the top providers in the world such as Pragmatic Play, Thunderspin and NetEnt and it features some of the most popular slot games you can find online today, such as Wolf Gold, Gonzo’s Quest Megaways and Starburst.
Casino games fans are also well catered for on the site with a wide selection of popular table games available, plus almost 100 different types of Video Poker to play, plus bingo games and Instant Win games. There are also lotto-based games and scratchcards to play on the site.
With regular promotions alongside the wealth of games, which also includes progressive jackpot games, you will never be short of top quality attractions if you are a casino gaming fan.
Alongside the CBet casino offering, the site also has an extensive range of Live Casino games featuring live human dealers across a massive selection of games including popular favourites such as blackjack, roulette, baccarat, as well as more unusual games such as Cash or Crash, Crazy Time, Monopoly, Football Studio and many more.
CBet TV Series Betting
We don’t often focus on specialist forms of betting but our CBet review would be missing some key information if we didn’t tell you about a special section of the site which focuses on betting on entertainment and TV shows.
Here you can wager on events that may, or may not, happen in a number of TV series shown across a number of channels and streaming services.
The bets available are picked by the site, but it does mean that if you want to place a bet on something other than your usual sporting, esports or casino games, then there is this rather unusual option available too.
CBet Bonuses
Any good CBet review will take into account its welcome offers and if you are looking for a good value CBet welcome bonus, then the good news is that the site has a number of different options for you to pick from. What is particularly pleasing is that alongside its standard sports betting bonus for new customers, CBet is one of the few sites that also offers esports bonuses alongside that offering and to the same value.
Esports Bonus
If you are someone that wants to focus their betting action predominantly on esports, then the CBet welcome bonus offer most suited to you is the sites Esports offer.
Simply load up the esports CBet site and register with it to become a member and then make your first qualifying deposit on the site of at least €10. You will receive a 100% Matched Deposit bonus on your first deposit of up to €200 as your welcome offer.
Once your bonus has been allocated, you simply need to activate it in your player account and then you can access the bonus. You must activate the bonus BEFORE you start betting with your deposit, so do remember to do this immediately after you have made the qualifying deposit and it is available in your account.
The bonus comes with a 5x wagering requirement on the bonus and deposit which you must complete within 30 days in order to realise the funds.
One thing to note which is not great news, is that if you don’t wager the bonus and your deposit fully within the 30 days, then you lose your bonus AND your deposit. That seems very harsh to me and is not something I would recommend about this particular offer, especially if you are someone that doesn’t play that often.
Casino Bonus
If your preferred CBet welcome bonus is more likely to see you playing at the casino, then the Casino Bonus is one that you should definitely take a closer look at. Not only is CBet casino a fantastic casino with a great deal of slots and other casino games to play, it has a very fine bonus offer too.
That is a 100% matched deposit welcome offer of up to €500 on your first deposit.
Simply make your qualifying deposit into your CBet Casino account and you will receive the same amount as a bonus. You must activate this before you start playing on site with your deposited funds in order to receive the bonus.
There is a 30x wagering requirement on the bonus and deposit and there is a minimum bet limit of €5 per wager on this offer and you have 30 days in which to realise the bonus. Otherwise your bonus and your deposit will be lost.
Again, we feel this is a little harsh as while having the bonus is one thing, taking a person’s deposit seems somewhat unfair.
Crypto Bonus
Alternatively, if you deposit at CBet using Bitcoin, then you can take up a different welcome offer which sees a 5% cash back on any deposit you make during any given month. That means that you can use this offer as a welcome bonus, but also on subsequent cryptocurrency deposits that you may well make in future.
You can claim your cash back using the Live Chat service on the site at the end of each month. So if you deposit €500 worth of bitcoin over the course a month, you would be eligible to receive €25 cash back!
For us, this is the pick of the welcome bonus offers available at CBet as it is an ongoing offer, which does offer superb value for cryptocurrency customers.
CBet Customer Services
A key part of any CBet review has to be the support available for customers when they have a query or when they feel something is not right with their account or similar. Help and customer services are a valuable part of any site and CBet has a number of options available.
There is detailed support available about depositing and withdrawing on the site and you can also find out more about the terms of any bonus by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and clicking on the relevant link.
For more direct customer support, there are two options. First you can try the Live Support chat option which is available from 8am to 2am CET.
Outside of these times, or if you prefer to use it, there is also an email customer services option at [email protected]
Ideally, I would have liked to have seen an expanded help section and a telephone option too, but there is still good quality support available for customers of the site and it is relatively easy to have almost all issues resolved expediently.
CBet Payment Options
When it comes to depositing funds into your account and completing transactions, then CBet has a number of different payment options available to you, including cryptocurrency.
The site may not offer quite as many payment options as some other providers, but each of the payment services that are allowed on the site are all of the highest quality and are the most popularly used options when it comes to online sports betting.
Options available at CBet are:
- Visa
- MasterCard
- Skrill
- Paysafecard
- Neteller
- Instant Banking
- Bank Transfer
- Bitcoin
Depositing your cash into your account using one of the above options should see the cash available instantly in your account. The minimum deposit you can make to your account is €10, but there is no maximum deposit limit set.
You can also use the above methods to withdraw cash from your CBet account, but there is a daily limit of €1,500 and a €2,500 weekly limit on how much you can withdraw.
As is customary with the various withdrawal methods, the time it takes to receive each withdrawal can range from just a few hours, to several days. Bitcoin withdrawals should be instantaneous.
CBet Gaming Licenses and Security Features
CBet is operated by AK Global N.V. which is based in Curacao and the site operates under the Curacao gaming license.
Now a few years ago, that might have set a few alarm bells ringing in your head as sites based here did not have the best of reputations. However, since then, the state has really cleaned up its act in terms of how strict they are with companies operating under its license and now holding one has become a marker of being a fair, legal and respected site.
Furthermore, the site has agreed supply deals with a host of top names in the slot gaming and casino gaming industry, such as Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Pish Gaming and more, which again is good news for customers as these are some of the best and most secure games you can find on any site.
Your security is also taken care of due to the sites adherence to Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology. This double-encrypted system is used by financial institutions the world over to protect information and is another benefit that we are happy to point out in this CBet review especially for those who are security conscious.
All in all, when it comes to security, CBet offers as much security if not more than most of the popular esports betting sites available today.
Final Remarks
To conclude our CBet review, we have to say that the site would probably have scored over 4.0 had it not been for the issues about losing your deposit as part of the welcome bonus offer not being completed within 30 days.
Personally, we think this is too punitive and it is the only aspect of the CBet site that we were not very keen on.
The development of the Virtual Sports section is a positive and the extensive options in the Sports, Esports and Casino sections are all great and mean you can always find something to enjoy on the site.
In our view, this site is best used with cryptocurrency thanks to its great value bonus for bitcoin users.
