Welcome Bonus Information

Let’s start with the most surprising aspect of this new bookmaker. At the time of review, Proper Bet did not offer a Welcome Bonus of any description.

Here at newbettingsites.uk, we were among the first to review the site – perhaps we were so quick that we completed the review before Proper Bet finalised their new player package.

Whatever the case, it is unusual for a betting site not to offer a Welcome Bonus, and one may be added in time. Keep an eye on our bookmakers list for any updates.

Our Experience of Proper Bet

We were impressed by the crisp, clean layout of the Proper Bet desktop site. With a clear focus on the sport’s most punters want to bet on, the clutter-free presentation was a breath of fresh air.

Following the tried-and-tested "menu to the left, markets in the middle, and bet slip to the right" formula, navigation is straightforward for new and experienced punters. The "Recently Viewed" feature at the top of the main menu is a nice touch and makes finding your bets even quicker.

The Proper Bet In-Play area deserves a special mention, with the infographics across golf, tennis, football, and more doing a great job of relaying the action. And, for those who like to take a profit early, Cash Out is available on selected events.

At the time of review, the headline promotion was the Proper Boosts enhanced odds deal. The boosts we looked at offered enhancements up to a generous 37.50%. Proper Bet has a notification feature for updates on “Free Bets, Offers & Proper Boosts”, suggesting more deals may be coming.

This socially responsible site is commitment to safer gambling, offering a suite of tools, including deposit limits and play breaks.

If you have any questions while using the site, the FAQs section answers the most common queries. Alternatively, you can reach Proper Bet via email, X, Facebook, and Instagram.

Sports & Markets Available

Proper Bet has a focused 17-sport menu. That’s fewer than sites that appear to list every sport under the sun, but most UK punters won’t notice the absence of niche pursuits such as badminton, padel, sailing, etc.

Crucially, the popular betting sports of football, horse racing, tennis, golf, and boxing are all here. Having recently noticed an increase in new betting sites steering clear of horse racing, the presence of the “Sport of Kings” earns a thumbs up from us. With cricket, darts, greyhound racing, snooker, and American football among the other sports covered in depth, Proper Bet will satisfy most players.

The wealth of choice within the individual sports is solid – particularly football. The Competition tab lists over 60 leagues and cups from all around the world. Diving into an individual Premier League game reveals over 120 markets, including match result, handicaps, goalscorers, player specials, cards, corners, and more. You can combine several of these markets in the slick Bet Builder.

Proper Bet Mobile Betting

At the time of review, Proper Bet did not offer a dedicated iOS or Android app. However, during testing, the mobile-optimised site performed smoothly in our smartphone and tablet browsers.

Security and Licensing

Proper Bet is licensed and regulated in Great Britain by the UK Gambling Commission under account number 100990.

That is an important point for UK customers. We only recommend betting sites which hold the appropriate UK licence.

Summary

Proper Bet ticks many of our key boxes. The UKGC licence is the gold standard, while the horse racing live-streaming feature should bring the site onto the radar of racing punters. Further perks include Cash Out, Bet Builder, the generous Proper Boosts, and the impressive In-Play area. A welcome offer and a few more regular promotions would add gloss to a rock-solid new site.
