could anyone point me to an URL where I can see the allowed countries for betfair right now? I searched and even talked to betfair but they did not provide the info. Betfair says changes for allowed countries are quite often so I would need to try to register to find out if my country is accepted. This was not a satisfying answer as I maybe would move to an allowed country.
There isn't that one list unfortunately and the response from Betfair is kind of reasonable. Just last year Betfair closed all their agent accounts and they don't do that for fun; there is always something going on regarding certain countries, new regulations and the risk Betfair is willing to take, to not lose more customers. And you have to be careful, if you read somewhere that country XY is allowed at Betfair, because there is a difference between the Betfair Sportsbook and the Exchange. You can use the sportsbook in a lot of countries, but both sportsbook & exchange in not that many (thats why WLE's have some success
). In the end I think you will only be safe longterm, if you move to UK/Ireland. UK is better than Ireland then again because of Brexit.

ACC-EX. The last time I talked to them, they had 1,000 Euro minimum deposit, 50,- quarterly membership fee and 6% transfer fees (a lot).
