Our team of experts digs deep to ensure we’re only recommending the best betting sites available. This isn’t to say that we only look at the above factors when reviewing a sportsbook. We’ve decided to take all of this experience and develop the Covers BetSmart Rating, all in an effort to ensure you’re playing at a safe and secure betting site.Įach sportsbook is given a 5-star rating that is based on the five main factors that we feel are crucial to you having a good experience while betting online: bonuses and promotions, banking and payout speeds, key features, security and trust, and customer service. This means that we have been rating and reviewing online betting sites since sportsbooks first took their offerings to the World Wide Web. Covers has been in this game for a long time - 25-plus years, in fact.
