How do you know how to trust online sportsbooks?

also, if you are already here in the forum, you're lucky because finding one is easy peasy. just look at their dedicated threads, check for their trust summary, and you will get the idea if they are doing their job to their players. and if you have ample time, you can even read their whole thread. with that, i don't think you won't get the idea where they are in this gambling business. and how they treat their players and more. you will only be screwed by a new site if you don't know how to read some warning signals. but all the info are already out there, you just need to filter the authentic ones.

That's true actually. You either know who to trust, and thus you don't ask such questions, or, the safest move for you is going to established sportsbooks with great reputation. The probability of being scammed in one of those places is almost zero. You will rather be scammed by your bank or your employer than by an established gambling site.

That's why it's always been suggested to stick into reputable sites before making any deposit but there are people who do really love to test out waters and discover or trying out to experience new sites even if it's just new or doesn't have any reviews or good feedbacks.

popular sites do start on being new and can't be trusted but due time they do able to reach out certain position and popularity in the market.Always go with the herd and try to see if they are really dealing with a good site for you to follow them on.

Most of the people will use the reputable and trusted website already because of the primary source too which is the experience of the player and of course it is more ideal to use than risking your funds but still not all the gambling casino gets already a good reputation still it depends on their service if you think they are good enough and have more potential give it a try but not a huge amount.

I kinda understand your difficulty here in the sense that there has been proliferation of gambling websites and it's hard these days to get to trust your money on any one.

But one can be able to decern those few that could be trusted to an extent through their years of operations, checks on reviews (although reviews at times can be deceiving but it's one of the way to go with), also their mode of operations too is another way to check if they could be trusted.

Getting trust as an online gambling platform is not easy and time and good features really matters a lot. The gambling platform must have a fast transactions time rate and with bonus for new gambler if they like. Also another fast way to gain trust as a gambling platform is through the use of signature campaign. This wil fasten the process and once the gambling platform is able to have goof conduct that gamblers are looking, then it will not be long to gain trust from gamblers.

There's no reason why we need to move to other sportsbooks if the old sportsbooks is trusted enough, the promotions might be a peanut and not worth to risk. I consider trustworthy sportsbooks is better than the new sportsbooks that's offer decent promotions.

Also another fast way to gain trust as a gambling platform is through the use of signature campaign. This wil fasten the process and once the gambling platform is able to have goof conduct that gamblers are looking, then it will not be long to gain trust from gamblers.

AFAIK the campaign you promoted under your signature e.g. 1xbit scam casino have been launched around a year, but why they doesn't have any positive trust yet and moreover the participants get red tagged? Signature campaign doesn't have any relation between the trustworthy of the sites!

Exactly. A campaign wouldn't be useful if the site has a bad reputation. And a good reputation is a crucial part of any marketing campaign. The sites that deliver on their promises are, for example, the ones that have very high user satisfaction. This can be achieved by focusing on the user and not on the product. Users always come first.

1xBit is a good example of very bad marketing and bad business practices. It has been almost two years since they returned to the forum and, despite consecutive campaigns, they have failed to deliver any positive impact to their reputation. Moreover, their lack of organization and inconsistent messages on the forum only deepens the trust issues, and the site is still a black sheep among the community.

I have already posted this in other topics, but another method that can help is look if the casino/gambling site is being represented by the trusted campaign managers in BitcoinTalk. I believe there are five campaign managers who are very trusted by the community, who also have proven themselves deserving of that trust, and they have the experience to sense whether a casino is a scam, or not.

This is an effective method. No doubt about that. A respected manager will never run a campaign for a suspicious gambling site. This is the main reason why signature campaigns have been run here. Not because someone can click on your signature and be redirected to a site(those cases are rare), but rather because it can be seen, by whom the site is represented here.

Hello everyone, I've been using online sportsbooks for a while now, but I wanted to know how do you know how to trust those sites? What do you look for in them, what are some red flags for you, that kind of stuff. Hope it makes sense and please share what are your favorite online sportsbooks.

It is always best to learn from your own experience, but you can reduce your risk by taking certain steps.
It is quite important that the casino is on the market as long as possible. The shorter the casino is on the market, the greater the risk.
For sure, don't make a large deposit at first. It's best to try to make a few withdrawals before depositing a larger amount.
If you do not care about anonymity and it is not a problem for you to do KYC verification, look for casinos that have a license. This makes the risk quite a bit smaller as well.

Yes, experience will tell it all. You can commit mistake at first but rest assured you’ll eventually learned from it. However, one way also to trace a trustworthy sportsbook is through its reviews. If they are telling positive feedbacks about the casino, it’s a sign that it’s legit and reliable. And if that casino is also supported with a signature campaign by a reputable manager, most likely that is also trustworthy. Of course, the credibility of that certain bounty manager is at stake once he promoted a scam one.

I believe this forum, the gambling board and gambling discussion board are very comprehensive references when it comes to crypto gambling.
For me, if you want to know a specific casino or sportsbook, just head to their respective thread here and you will learn a lot more as compared to the reviews outside.
No filter about the reviews or feedbacks, and you will get a lot more information about how they respond to their players.
If you want a brief overview of the site, you can check the trust summary of their representative to see if they have existing complaints.

Apart from Review, license, site functionality and comments on the site. It is good to check the customer case as well.
How does the refund policies work and also what percentage the player get. RTP is as important as review and site functionality

Sometimes you also need to see who are those people gives their feedbacks because sometimes there are casino thread creator pays a thread bumper just to show to the forum users that they have relevance and their casino is good according to their paid reviews. But threads here is really a good reference its just we need to scan those reviews if that one came from legitimate people who test their casino and not those fake nor spamming users.

You could really able to determine which one is real and which one is just simply shilling or trying out to ruin a site reputation but we know that there are some people who do easily believed on what they do see thats why in depth research and clarifications or verification if you are in doubt of those reviews thats why its ideal that you should really be looking for high ranking account advises most of the time but there are some exclusions since not all would really be giving out their honest review yet most of them are just neither been paid to make positive feedbacks or something like that.
Trusting any platforms isnt something hard to be done, you can simply search for the most reputable or popular which does automatically consider that they are legit and does have that good
services that it do gives.

I will retain blindly believing bitcointalk trust feedbacks when it comes reputation of ones sportsbook especially a negative one. Make sure you check all the reference are legit and is true before believing a negative feedback. While the positive feedback is sometimes meh, dont count it in, sometimes it just a thank you feedback, not a comprehensive one.

Plus, the looks/UI/content of the website look at this one https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5403811.msg60454225#msg60454225
It was almost copied from other website even the slogan.

I tend to view things in a similar fashion, positive reviews do not require any evidence to be put forward about the legitimacy of a casino, however when it comes to a negative trust evidence is necessary in order for the community to get behind it, so if a service like a casino gets a negative rating then you know that something happened and that the community does not approve of it, and this is key as you can see the extent of their behavior and in the case it is unacceptable for you then you can avoid that casino from now on.

I believe also that License is one of what we need to seek first and the countries  rules about gambling because this will hinder our capacity to enjoy the winnings , it is ok if we will continue losing but once there is a need for withdrawal then it will be the burden.
but the best advise is that Only play in sportsbook that has a good reputation and record specially here in bitcointalk as we have many in this forum that has advertising for long.

Positive and negative feedback should be viewed in similar way. Actually it's more easier to fake positive feedback rather than negative feedback because a user can post positive review in the casino with different intent such as he is just employed by signature campaign, he is participating on the promotion that he gets benefit and many more. I will bring Bitlucy as example here, There ANN thread was full of positive feedback back then because they have an active free spin giveaway and new signature campaign but look at them right now, Those positive feedback make the victims feel comfortable on playing in the casino and deposit huge amount.

In this case, Positive feedback should be supported by evidence especially if it’s content is all about the reputation of th casino.

I think, just, in my opinion, it’s both easy to make positive or negative feedback especially if it’s just from a beginner who can’t immediately tell if it really has real experience or is currently playing on a gambling site.

But if the basing itself is here in the forum and their thread then you will know who is lying or not, especially if there is backup by a reputable veteran in the field to confirm.

That's really what usually happens, isn't it?  We won’t know right away if we don’t try.  Maybe in their case, they have not prepared for the possible bad or wrong things that may happen and how they will handle it and come up with a solution to fix it but if not, it will come out exactly what their real purpose is. After all, it's all about reputation.

Yes, that's correct. Look at members who are really using the service not blindly because they are users who tagged them with a positive trust. I mean, that's a good addition to trusting a service but it will never hurt to be sure by checking different experiences from different users.
Before, I use Sportsbet.io as my main sports betting site and I still use them today if I cannot see the game on Stake.com. These two sites have never failed me in both deposit and withdrawals and the same goes for the service. If a game is "void" they give back the amount you bet for and after the game ended the payment is almost instant after checking the final scores.

I personally wouldn't worry about such cases. bitcointalk is not kind of site where an unfair review of a gambling site can go unnoticed and just hang there forever. Write such a review and a massive backlash is unavoidable. Overall, it will do no good to a site that wanted to misrepresent itself.

We will only believe that a sportsbook casino site is trusted when we see that it is licensed.Once the sports book casino site is licensed we will find it in the casino site web series.Then people will talk good about it and if it is popular among all, we will consider it trusted.

As long as we can get a list of trusted sportsbook casino sites from this forum, we should be fine and I believe this forum has provided a list of those casinos. The sportsbook casino site here seems to have a license already and has a good reputation, making it easier for us to choose the sportsbook casino site. We can also directly register and play there while looking at other gambling games. But please be careful if you find a sportsbook casino site out there and it's not reviewed yet on this forum because we don't know how good the casino is.
