How BetMissouri.com Rates Sportsbooks

How we Rate and Review Sportsbooks

The experts at BetMissouri.com have plenty of experience in sports betting, so you can rest assured that the reviews seen on this site are tried and true across different markets and across several years of betting. Here are how we rate sportsbooks.

Read Customer Reviews

While some sites such as BetMissouri.com review sportsbooks, some users may feel more comfortable looking up real customer reviews on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. You'll find what actual users have to say after using some of these MO betting apps, and don't just look at the app ratings, look at why customers like or dislike the brand. 

Maybe a user doesn't like the way the sportsbook looks, maybe there's a problem with loading time, or maybe there's occasional glitches. Regardless, reading user reviews is a good way to get a feel of how the sportsbook operates in the eyes of the user. 

And the best part is that there will continue to be new user reviews available each day. So we frequently search through these and share some actual reviews on our brand overviews, typically listing good, bad and "so-so" reviews to point out what's to like and what can be improved. 

Welcome Bonuses

Welcome bonuses are a great factor in rating sportsbooks. Some can grant instant bonus bets just for a minimum initial bet amount while others will refund your first bet up to a certain amount. There's plenty of variety when it comes to welcome offers, so it all depends on what fits your preference in terms of choosing a sportsbook. 

At BetMissouri.com, we rate sportsbooks as it comes to welcome offers based on a variety of factors including the bonus amount, ease of use and terms and conditions of each. We also provide the pros and cons associated with each offer so you can weigh your choice based on what makes each good and bad.

While there aren't Missouri sportsbook promos available in the state just yet, we have seen plenty of welcome bonuses in other states and have tested each of them. There's a good chance that we won't see any brand new welcome offers in the Show-Me State that we already haven't seen, so what we have listed on our promos page have been claimed and tested across other markets.  

Available Betting Markets

While you'd expect most sportsbooks to offer the same sports betting markets, you'd be surprised to find that some separate themselves from the field in offering different markets, and that some offer way more than others. Maybe you can't find a specific player prop that you have a good feeling for, or maybe you're looking to bet on a specific collegiate game and can't find it. Well, maybe you should check at one of the bigger-name sportsbooks. 

The way that sportsbooks present betting markets is another big factor into choosing an operator. Maybe you're more of an alt line bettor rather than taking just an "over/under" on player props, or maybe you like the simplicity of scrolling through a list of props. Regardless, you have a variety to choose from when electing a sportsbook based on your preference in betting markets. 

Finding a sportsbook that offers plenty of betting markets is an important factor in selecting a brand to bet with. One of our top picks when it comes to betting markets is DraftKings MO, which we expect to be available once sports betting goes live. 

Odds Pricing

When betting on sports, you want to find the sportsbook that has the best payouts. Unfortunately, there isn't one sportsbook that has better odds than others. Rather, odds will vary among sportsbooks for some events will others will update their odds earlier than competitors. 

Fortunately, we have an idea of which sportsbooks typically offer better odds than competitors for the majority of markets, but even then, there may be times that other operators will offer better pricing. That's why we urge bettors looking for the best payout to shop around in order to find the best odds. 

FanDuel sportsbook MO comes to mind when discussing sportsbooks with great odds. This brand typically has the best odds available for most markets, but there are also times when others will offer a better price. 

Banking Options

Banking methods are an important aspect of using a sportsbook as it's the only way to handle deposits and withdrawals. You'll want to choose a sportsbook based on which banking option you wish to use and the time it takes to deposit or withdraw funds. 

Fortunately, most sportsbooks offer similar payment methods, with some including the ability to deposit funds in person at casinos. However, there are some that stand out with more or less options offered, or options that are more unique than others. 

At BetMissouri.com we list every banking method provided by the sportsbook to ensure you find the right option. You might prefer using Venmo or PayPal or may be looking for a banking method with quick deposits and withdrawals. We list out the time that it takes for each method as well. 

Customer Support

Customer support is key when choosing a sportsbook. You want to have a brand where you can reach out for any issues or questions, and receive a response in a timely manner. 

Now, customer support methods will differ among brands, but you'll find a variation of live chat, email, phone number and FAQ among those options. We at Betmissouri.com prefer the live chat feature as it's a good way to contact the sportsbook in real time, but a vast selection of methods is always your best bet. 

Some sportsbooks are better at providing customer support than others. Caesars Sportsbook Missouri, if available, is among the top operators when it comes to providing support options across live chat, contact us, help, feedback, Betting 101 forms and the ability to upload documents.
