Bet99 App Review 2024: Sportsbook, Casino, How It Works

Bet99 has become the go-to betting option for many Canadians, thriving ever since Ontario’s iGaming market officially launched on April 4th, 2022.

The brand successfully secured an operator’s license from iGaming Ontario, which is the regulatory arm of the AGCO (Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario).

In other words, Bet99 is both legal and safe for Canadian players. I already have a full review of the Bet99 website, therefore this article will focus on the different features that the Bet99 app offers.

But first,

Post the redesign, there’s a greater focus on being both user-friendly and easy to navigate.

While some brands have separate apps for each vertical, I like that on the Bet99 app, you can access both sports and casino games from the same place.

This includes live sports and live casino games as well.

While browsing through the app, I found it easy to locate all available sports and casino games, including all live and future events from the world’s top leagues.

What I especially liked is that Bet99 also has a separate ‘Live Now’ tab, which makes it easy for me to see which live sports are occurring at a glance.

The search bar under the ‘Casino’ and ‘Live Casino’ tabs also makes it easy to find the slot or table game you’re looking for.

Other exciting features include live sports analytics, stop limits, and full app timeouts. I always encourage our readers to stay informed and play within your means with ease.

These, and many other useful settings, can be easily accessed via the ‘Account’ Tab.

To my great disappointment, I’ve found myself automatically logged out after 15 minutes of inactivity.

However, since the app is also equipped with biometric log-in (face ID) and good geolocation technology, I found it easy to log back in quickly.

The biggest downsides for me as a bettor are that live streaming is not currently available, and cash-out options vary by game, but it’s hard to find any indication of which games qualify for cash-out.

In short, the Bet99 app is generally smooth and easy-to-use and is surely among the best betting apps available in Canada.

Bet99 Sportsbook App

  • Separate ‘Live Now’ Section

  • 26 Different Sports

  • Live Sports Analytics

  • No Live Streaming & Limited Cash Out Options

There are 30 unique sports available, including popular favourites like:

  • Hockey
  • Basketball
  • Football
  • Baseball
  • Soccer
  • Tennis
  • Golf
  • MMA

Canadian favourites like rugby and niche sports such as darts and snooker are also available. You can even bet on motorsports, and Aussie rules football.

Common betting markets include money line, spreads, and totals. You can also wager on prop bets and futures.

Placing live bets on constantly fluctuating odds is also popular, with the added strategy of making wagers based on the game script.

Seasoned betters always love the prop bets section as well, packed with several different unique markets.

Live Betting Features

The Bet99 app is among the best for live betting in Canada, thanks to several prominent features.

Live Sports Analytics

The app allows you to access a wide variety of sports analytics.

Bet99 Sports Analytics - Box Score

Simply click on a game to see more information, including rosters, head-to-head stats, and other probabilities.

Bet99 Sports Analytics - Pitch Tracker

In the example above, you can access Pitch Tracker to help guide your next bet.

Bet99 Sports Analytics - Roster Preview

Live Streaming & Stats

Bet99 live stream is limited to NFL and Tennis.

While limited, we have no complaints about the quality. The Watch and Bet feature makes it uninterrupted as you do not have to minimize or close the live stream to place bets.

All markets and odds are available on the screen and hidden when you want to enjoy the stream.

Plus, there was no lag, putting the quality at par with bet365.

However, if you want to stream matches for the NBA, NHL, Cricket, etc., then check out bet365.

Cashing Out

While the cash-out option is available for some bets, including live events, I didn’t like that there is no preview to determine if a bet will have a cash-out option or not.

Instead, you have to add these bets to your bet slip, and then you’ll be shown whether or not there is a cash-out option.

Other big names in Canadian sports betting make it easy to see if you have this possibility — BetVictor is a great example.

Once you’ve signed up and verified your identity, you’ll need to have a deposit prior to wagering your first Bet99 bet.

When you have the basics covered, it’s as simple as one-two-three.

  1. Find the match you are interested in and click on it to open all available betting markets.
  2. Choose your bet, after which it will be added to the bet slip.
  3. Then, choose the amount you wish to wager and click the “Place bet” button.
Tip!

When placing a bet, you can choose to be alerted on odds changes, which saves you time and ensures you’re placing smart bets from the get-go.

Bet99 Casino App Review

  • 3,000+ Games

  • Stop Limits & Timeouts

  • Convenient Search Bar

  • Popular Providers such as Pragmatic & Microgaming

Are you looking for a mobile casino that offers an extensive selection of games from renowned providers?

Look no further than the ‘Casino’ and ‘Live Casino’ tabs on the Bet99 app!

The Bet99 casino app offers a whopping 3,000+ games to choose from, including slots and table games.

Use the search bar to find any game in a flash, no matter what your preferences are.

Above the search bar features popular categories for easy navigating, including ‘Jackpots’, ‘New’, and ‘Hot’.

The live casino also runs seamlessly, with several different variations of favourites including blackjack and roulette.

Bet99 App vs Mobile Experience

Accessing Bet99 through the mobile browser is very similar to using the app.

The main difference is that you will be logged out and your location will be lost the second you leave the webpage. Even if by mistake.

Other aspects of the mobile site feel a bit clunky as well. Overall, I found it far better to just download the app and save yourself the hassle.

Bet99 App for iOS vs. Android

Both the iOS and Android versions of the app have lived up to our standards. There’s not much difference in terms of functionality.

On iOS, the app has been very well-received. Currently, the Bet99 iOS app has a 4.9/5 rating and is the 55th-best app under the ‘Sports’ category.

Bet99 at the Apple Store

On Android, there have been 100+ downloads but reviews aren’t currently available.

The app wasn’t always available at the Google Play Store, but it will likely grow in popularity on the platform thanks to the app re-vamp.

Once you’ve successfully downloaded the Bet99 app, simply log-in to your account. If you’re at this step, skip ahead to the next section to learn about deposits and withdrawals.

If you do not have an account, here’s how to get one. There are four different sign-up steps:

1. Select a username and enter all requested personal information.
