Our assessment

bwin is an online sports betting and gaming brand under Entain plc, offering a sportsbook (including horse racing), casino, live casino and poker across European markets.

Who Runs bwin

bwin's British licence is not its own. bwin.com is an active domain on Gambling Commission account 54743, held by LC International Limited — the same account that licenses ladbrokes.com and coral.co.uk, and which carries fourteen active trading names in total, bwin among them. The bwin app on the UK App Store is published by ElectraWorks Limited, a different name again.

What a Shared Licence Covers

The classes on 54743 run wider than one brand needs: general betting on real and virtual events, pool betting, and betting intermediary work, with the earliest of them running since 1 July 2019. Bingo and casino licences sit on it too, which this review does not cover. What matters for bwin is that its fixed-odds prices, its virtual markets and any tote wagering it offers all rest on a licence held for a portfolio rather than for this brand.

What You Can Bet On

Fixed odds on real and virtual events, and tote pools on racing. bwin's own App Store listing advertises "acca boosts to enhance your sports accumulators. the more games you select, the bigger your boost" — a multiplier applied to an accumulator's return rather than to its individual prices, which matters because it pays only if every selection wins.

Verdict

Our Take

bwin is a conventional fixed-odds and pool-betting book, and in Great Britain it is the same licensed operator as Ladbrokes and Coral online: one account, fourteen trading names. A reader using two of those brands to compare prices is comparing two front ends of one company, which is worth knowing before treating one as a check on the other. Elsewhere bwin runs on national licences, and the countries table on this page records the markets whose position this site has checked.
