Can a site in BETA be posted here for pre-launch feedback?

[Haunebu]

your site is in beta and these suggestions will help you develop it further. if you're aspiring for real honest review multiple spin i guess  couldn't be more grateful.

A single spin is enough for an honest review in my opinion. Multiple spins would be better, but you need to keep op's budget in mind before making such a request. If his budget is high, multiple spins should be provided.

My suggestion though is to give people "free" balance to test it,,, not a faucet. Faucet and actual coins should only be for proper launch.

Why? Faucet is a good way to help people gamble with real money which is why it is much better than gambling with test balance in this aspect. If op has no problem providing a faucet in this case, he should go right ahead.

The owner could try that, like on testnet only of Bitcoin. The owner of the website can use the bitcoin testnet for the BETA only.
For me, the better way is to give all users starting free starting balance or a bonus for every first deposit on the website.
Since the owner wants feedbacks from real users, the owner can also start a paid campaign for those BETA testers that will participate. Just my 2 cents.

We would love to give an honest feedback with your site, you won't be breaking any rules if you will post your new sportsbook here just for the purpose of seeking feedback. I believe you are in the right place, there's a lot of sports gambling enthusiast here, you'll surely get some valuable feedback.  

Thanks. Yes, the site accepts bitcoin payments. Just had to make sure we weren't about to go against guidelines.

Would be nice if you add other payment option, bitcoin transaction fee is kinda expensive nowadays if you want to confirm it faster.

This is the current plan. Bonus on initial deposits. The problem is that we also offer no-registration bets, so I'm not sure how we'll regulate the bonus in those cases.

Why don't you check the forum rules and regulations completely going through it and you might not need to ask this sort of questions and prevent future occurrence.
I might not be on beta or have an account but as far as the rules goes there is nothing I have seen that the forum is against it

Can make bets without registering, you can give a bonus option on the initial bet which is basically the same as creating an account on your site. If you're confused then you must be make a free bet promotion if someone have made 10x bets or 100x bets depending on how your give it, the same addy crypto wallet will get it. My advice is to look at the previous site Michelle.

Some people make threads for their casinos in beta-version here. I saw someone giving you the advice to post it in Project Development, but I think that posting it in Gambling is fine, because it is indeed a topic for gambling, and there'll be more gamblers hanging out here than there. Just make a thread, people will check it out and give feedback. A small faucet to test out the games would be nice, of course.
One thing you should keep in mind is that if I'm not mistaken there's this one thread per company rule. You can make the ANN thread for the casino but first, post the beta version, and then edit that same thread when the improved version is ready. I am just not sure how it works with beta-versions. And in this case, you might want to reserve a post or two right after the first one (so, you make a thread by making the first post in it, and then you make one or two replies in this thread and write 'Reserved' in them).

Since no account is being made, then they can't initiate a deposit. Therefore, no bonus. Include that on the terms. Or just give them perks/rewards/points or whatever you want to call it depends on the numbers of winning bets they made by the same BTC address (withdrawals).

To summarize:

-The deposit bonus will only be applied to those who opted to register on the site as obviously, they will have access to the deposit page.
-Those bets that will be made via no-registration will also have a sort of rewards (earnings points) depends on their made winnings (verification via used BTC address as withdrawal).

Just my 2 cents.

I'm part of a team working on a sports betting site and we're about to go into beta testing and we need proper feedback from real users. Would it be against community etiquette to post a beta site here?

Depends on what kind of beta. One man here opened slots website without slot and stated that they were in beta mode, hope you don't mean such case. If your website is ready and you just want to get more tests from community, then no problem to my mind. If you'll include some rewards during beta, for example free satoshies, this will cause positive give you positive view from community and more customers will try to test your beta.

I guess this is kind of the place, there is also gambling discussion which you can open but I am not sure if it will get enough attention there. Of course, it all depends on what the mods think about the topic, if they think that this place is not the right place and move it then they can send it to gambling discussion but if they do not mind it staying here then you can open any topic here.

If you want there is nothing stopping you from starting a topic about something totally irrelevant about gambling as well and as long as mods don't move it then it will be here, however mods would definitely move something irrelevant to gambling. So, your only option now is to open a topic here, give us all the information you have and show us the concept in general and we will review it until mods decide if it will stay or not.

[Ucy]

Not at all.
 But If you are going to pay users for feedback then the proper place to do that is on the forum "Service Section" else this is probably the right place to get the feedbacks.

I don't think this is aginst forum rules is this is crypto related. But you should be careful about lose of user. User shouldn't lose their fund due to mistakes of your website. Perhaps you might give them demo account with balance so they could test only and fund could not withdraw. Or you could run bug bounty like suggested by other users.

My sites are always in "BETA" and it is so since 1990 or so...
and it works perfectly.

Where are the details including the website for your beta/pre-launch? You should be specific about this, if you want people to test your site for free or give us a paid-trial and demo version.
Is https://spirebets.com/ the website you are working with? I saw it on your profile so I'm guessing that's the website.
