Contact Us
This page tells you how to reach the editorial team behind Best Offshore Betting Sites, what we can realistically help with, and — just as important — what we can't. We're an independent comparison site covering offshore sportsbooks that accept US players. We don't operate a sportsbook, hold anyone's funds, or have any power over an operator's account decisions.
Email the editorial team
The fastest way to reach us is email: [email protected]. We read everything that arrives and aim to reply to genuine reader questions, though we can't promise a response to every message.
Useful things to include when you write:
- The sportsbook's name and, if it's about a review, which page you were reading.
- Rough dates — when you deposited, when you requested a withdrawal, when the problem started.
- The payment method involved (crypto, bank card, wire, voucher/player transfer).
- Screenshots or ticket numbers from the operator's own support team, if you have them.
Please don't send us passwords, full card numbers, crypto private keys or seed phrases, or scans of your ID. No legitimate site needs those, and we won't ask.
What we can help with — and what we can't
| We can | We can't |
|---|---|
| Correct or update a factual error on one of our pages | Recover funds, force a payout, or intervene in a dispute |
| Explain how a bonus's rollover or minimum-odds terms generally work | Unlock, verify, reopen or close an account at any sportsbook |
| Log your experience with an operator as reader feedback | Change betting limits, cancel a wager, or settle a graded bet |
| Point you to responsible gambling support | Give legal, tax or financial advice |
| Consider a site for review | Offer betting tips, picks or anything resembling a guaranteed outcome |
If your issue is with an account, the operator's own support channel is the only route that can actually resolve it. Contact them first, in writing, and keep the thread.
Reader feedback on the books we rank
Reader reports are one of the few running signals anyone has on offshore operators, because there is no US regulator publishing complaint data on them. If a withdrawal took far longer than advertised, if a bonus term wasn't what the promo page implied, or if support went quiet, tell us. Equally, tell us when a book paid quickly and cleanly — that's just as useful and far less often reported.
We treat individual reports as anecdotal. One slow payout doesn't move a ranking; a repeated pattern across independent messages does, and it's usually what prompts us to re-check a review.
Where to complain if a sportsbook won't pay
- Open a ticket with the sportsbook and ask for the specific reason in writing.
- Complete any outstanding KYC/verification — unverified accounts are the most common cause of held withdrawals.
- Check the withdrawal limits, fees and processing windows in the operator's own terms before assuming a delay is a refusal.
- If it stalls, escalate to whatever dispute contact the operator's licensing body offers. These books are licensed offshore — typically in jurisdictions such as Curaçao, Panama or Costa Rica — and the practical remedy varies a great deal by licensor.
- Send us the outcome, so other readers benefit from it.
Be clear-eyed about step four. Offshore licensing does not give you the recourse a state-regulated book does, and in some cases the realistic outcome is that you don't get the money back.
Commercial relationships, stated plainly
Some links on this site are commercial, and Best Offshore Betting Sites may earn a commission when a reader signs up through one. That arrangement never buys a position, a rating or a favorable line in a review. If you think a page reads like it did, say so in an email — we'd rather fix it than defend it.
Operators and affiliate managers
If you represent a sportsbook, use the same address and put the brand name in the subject line. Two things worth knowing before you write:
- We don't publish supplied copy, guest posts written as reviews, or ratings agreed in advance.
- We do want corrections. If a bonus amount, rollover figure, payout window or accepted payment method on our pages is out of date, send the current terms page and we'll check it.
How our rankings are put together
So you know what you're writing to us about: the books on our lists — currently led by Lucky Rebel, Bovada and BetOnline — are researched, not tested. We review published terms, banking pages, market coverage and the public track record of paying. We do not claim to have deposited or withdrawn at any of them, and our numerical scores are editorial judgments, not customer-review averages.
The three at the top, and where each one has a catch
Lucky Rebel (editorial rating 10.0) heads the list, and it's also the newest name on it, which cuts both ways. The advertised welcome offer is 125% up to $1,250 plus a 50 FreeBet; as with every offshore bonus, it's released against rollover requirements, minimum odds and a time limit set out in the operator's own promo terms, and you should read those before depositing rather than after. The limitation is straightforward: a shorter public track record than the long-running books below it, so there's less history to judge payout reliability against.
Bovada (9.9) is here mainly because it has the longest, most visible record of paying US bettors of anything on our list, which is the single thing most readers write to us about. Its welcome bonus of 50% up to $250 is modest next to the headline percentages elsewhere — that's the trade-off, along with market and account restrictions that some readers find tighter than they expect.
BetOnline (9.6) earns its place on breadth: deep market coverage across NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, soccer, golf and MMA, plus props, futures, parlays and same-game parlays, and live/in-play betting. The advertised welcome bonus is $250 in free bets, again subject to rollover, qualifying-odds and expiry terms. The drawback readers raise most is inconsistency — pricing and payout experience vary by method, and free-bet stakes aren't returned in winnings.
Others we cover, including BetNow, Everygame, BetUS, Sportsbetting, Xbet, MyBookie and ApuestaHoy, advertise their own welcome offers with their own rollover conditions. No figure on this site should be read without its terms attached. More on who we are and how we work is on our about page, and the full ground rules sit in our terms and conditions.
Money questions we get asked a lot
We can't process anything, but we can explain the general shape of it. Offshore books typically take crypto (Bitcoin and several alternatives), bank cards, bank wire, money transfer services and voucher or player-to-player transfers, though availability for American customers changes without notice — verify on the operator's cashier page rather than trusting an old review.
- Crypto is usually the fastest route out and often the cheapest, but the coin's price can move between withdrawal and conversion, so the dollar amount you end up with isn't fixed.
- Bank cards are common for deposits and frequently unavailable for withdrawals; card issuers also decline these transactions at their own discretion.
- Bank wire and money transfer tend to carry the highest fees and the longest waits, and often the highest minimums.
- Payout limits, withdrawal fees and free-withdrawal allowances differ per book and per method, and are the detail most often missed.
Taking part costs whatever you choose to deposit and stake — accounts themselves are generally free to open. Nothing on this site should be read as tax or legal guidance; for anything touching how winnings are reported, consult a qualified professional.
Betting isn't the only thing these sites run
Most of the operators we cover pair the sportsbook with a casino, a live-dealer section, poker and, in several cases, a racebook for horse racing. Those products usually sit under separate bonus terms and separate rollover math, so a sports welcome offer rarely converts cleanly to casino play. If you're writing to us about a casino or racebook balance rather than a sports bet, mention that — the terms in question are different. Readers looking at casino-side coverage can start with our page on non-GamStop casinos.
Eligibility, legal standing and support
This site is for adults only — 21 and over, or the operator's stated minimum age where that is 18. The sportsbooks we cover are licensed offshore, not by any US state. They accept US customers, but accepting customers is not the same as being authorized to serve them: offshore sports betting sits in a legal grey area for US bettors, state law varies widely, and some states restrict or prohibit it outright. Check your own state's rules, and treat a licensing claim as unverified until you've confirmed it with the licensor.
There are no US state player protections here — no segregated-funds requirement you can rely on, no state gaming commission to appeal to, no guaranteed payout. Offshore books may also lack the self-exclusion, deposit-limit and cooling-off tools that regulated US operators must provide.
Bet only what you can afford to lose, never to chase losses or to fix a money problem, and don't treat betting as income. If gambling is causing harm to you or someone close to you, call 1-800-GAMBLER for free, confidential help, 24/7. Our responsible gambling resources list further support options.
