Efbet was founded by brothers Boyan and Tzvetomir Naydenov in 2006 in Bulgaria; as one of the first major betting companies in Eastern Europe, it sought to bring a new perspective to the gambling market while still providing the services users look for worldwide.
Licensed by Curacao eGaming and authorized and regulated by the Government of Curacao, Efbet is under different regulations than most of its competitors, who tend to be licensed through Malta, the United Kingdom, or Sweden.
Unlike other bookmakers, Efbet is focused on Eastern Europe, as can be seen through its language selections. While it is available in English, it recently became no longer accessible for UK users. EfBet has versions in English, Bulgarian, Turkish, Albanian, Greek, and Romanian.
Efbet is known for its extremely fast withdrawal process. Often, withdrawals can be processed within the hour, or within three hours if using e-wallets like Neteller.
Although Efbet is geared toward Eastern Europe, they still provide events that are popular worldwide. However, Efbet is not available for U.S. and U.K.-based users, which restricts their number of bettors. Overall, Efbet continues to compete in the international gambling world while focusing on a more eastern market.
Design
Efbet uses a colour scheme of black, grey, and yellow throughout the site, making the entire website look rather dark. However, this does not make navigating around it more difficult. The home page shows current in-play live matches that you can bet on and a sidebar on the left that has quick links to your favourite sports.
t the top of the page, there are tabs you can click on to go to sports betting, in-play live betting, virtuals, casino, live casino, lotto, and bonuses. The regular sports and live in-play sports betting look very similar to the home page, with the same layout of bets in the centre and sports quick links on the right. With both of these versions, the left-hand side of the page contains a section where you can place your bet.
Although dark, the Efbet desktop site is pretty simple for anyone to use.
Efbet also offers a mobile app that is available for mobile devices. It is easy to download, as it is actually available in the official mobile phone application stores. The app offers much the same that the desktop version does: sports betting, live in-play sports betting, casino games, and live casino games. They also have convenient features for those who are on the go, like ways to deposit money onto your account and live stream your favourite events, no matter where you might be.

- Football

- Beach Volleyball

With some of these matches, there are live match-play graphics that show users what is happening in the event. However, in Efbet live streaming is not available, so you can’t see exactly what is going on in the match you’re planning on wagering on.
With Live Games, users watch a real dealer play different games that they may bet on in real-time. The structure of the page is similar to others’ making it easy to understand how to participate.
Bonuses
For new users, EfBet offers a welcome bonus that you may use to start off on the right foot. In order to access this bonus, simply
- Deposit money into your account
- A 100% match bonus will be added
The bonus is granted as free bets and can be used after that initial deposit.
Unlike other sportsbooks, bonuses usually aren’t added directly to your account. Instead, Efbet emails you bonus codes weekly or monthly, and sometimes daily, that you are able to redeem for some type of promotion. Efbet offers a Reload Bonus, which matches your deposit 100%, and a Matchplay Casino Bonus, which doubles your casino depot.
Compared to other bookmakers, Efbet does not provide enticing bonuses for new and returning customers.
Customer Care
Efbet has customer service that is available 24/7 in chat and email. They have recently focused resources on this section, so users typically get a fairly quick response.
Registration
To register for Efbet, you must provide your name, email, address, phone number, and preferred currency. You have to activate your Efbet account through your email and then verify it. To verify your account you must send them a valid identifying document, like a passport or ID card, and a document proving your address, like a bank or utility statement. This whole process takes a few minutes but must be repeated when you withdraw money from your Efbet account.
Financial Information
There are no limits on the currency in Efbet, as long as it is the same as the currency that the payment method was issued with. You can pay with e-wallets like Skrill and Neteller, a direct wire transfer, or with your debit/credit card. The minimum amount you must bet is 1 Euro, and the maximum is 50,000 Euros.
Reliability
Efbet is not the most popular in the media. Its services struggle to compare with its competitors, and there isn’t anything that makes it unique or special. However, Efbet is protected with the latest encryption technology, so it is safe to use.
What do we suggest?
As mentioned before, there is a lot the site is weak in, and not much it is strong in. There are withdrawal fees that add up when big withdrawals are made. There is no horse racing, which is a popular wagering service that many bettors look for.
