Ladbrokes App Review

Ladbrokes Review

Ladbrokes’ industry-leading experience and creativity shine through this app. It is not just one of the most user-friendly apps out there but also one of the most entertaining and engaging.

This app has a main focus on live betting and sports betting. It contains over 30 sports and events to choose from. The range of sports to bet on includes:

• Football
• Horse Racing
• Tennis
• Cricket
• Darts
• Boxing
• Snooker
• Rugby union
• Basketball

Appearance-wise, it is sleek, modern, and simplistic to view. There’s a tidy format on each page and the user functionality is great.

The home screen is well-designed. It has easy access to odds, offers, and other information. key events are readily available thanks to the quick links provided and live games from all of the popular sports are then listed down the page.

Ladbrokes Features

The app is crammed full of excellent features, that enhance the overall betting experience. We have highlighted some of our favourite features below.

Cash-Out Options

The ‘Cash Out’ feature works really well. The ‘Cash Out’ icon is clear and can be found next to the applicable markets.

However, there’s no partial cash-out facility here. This means users are unable to take a percentage of the cash out offered, leaving some to still ride on the original bet. Other bookmakers do offer this feature.

One very impressive element of the cash-out system is the ability to cash-out bets made in Ladbrokes betting shops on the high street. There is a section on the app called ‘The Grid’. This can be accessed from the user account settings. It is designed to be used in conjunction with the Ladbrokes high street shops.

Punters who have placed a bet in a Ladbrokes shop can scan their bets using The Grid and then view key stats, track accumulators and even cash out, should an amount be offered.

In-Play Betting

Ladbrokes’ in-play betting offering is far superior to most on the market and is well worth downloading purely for the terrific range they have.

In-play markets will be the first thing you see in the app. There’s sports fixtures from across the world. Whether it be Premier League fixtures, Spanish Second Division or even a more obscure league, Ladbrokes has it covered.

Live Streaming

The app has a number of live-streaming events which really will take your betting to the next level.

All users have to do is bet the minimum required wager (usually £1)  and they’ll be able to watch the fixture they’ve bet on.

Live-streamed events are accessible from the home page’s menu. A handy list is provided, displaying both streams on live games and upcoming events.

There are up to 50 live horse racing streams available each and every day to tune in to and a number of other sports including:

• Greyhound racing
• Tennis
• Snooker
• Darts
• Table Tennis
• Ice hockey
• Basketball
• Handball

Ladbrokes Sportsbook Bet Builder

One of the newest features to appear on the Ladbrokes app is their very own football bet builder – Called #getaprice. Users are now able to bundle up different selections to make a multi-element bet for a particular match. For example, in a Liverpool match, the user may wish to combine the following selections in to one bet:

1. Liverpool to win
2. Salah to make 1+ assists
3. Both teams to score
4. Exactly 40 booking points
5. Milner to be carded
6. Over 9.5 corners

As each selection is picked, the odds will change to reflect the price of all of the picks combined. If the user is happy with the price once all four selections have been made, they can then go ahead and select the place bet button.

This will open up the bet slip with the selections inputted. All that remains is to set a stake and another tap on the place bet button and the bet builder bet will be placed.

Users can see which football matches are set up with the bet builder feature by selecting the bet builder tab from the home page. 

Horse Racing With Ladbrokes

As a bookmaker, Ladbrokes is known for its horse racing betting app.  All the upcoming races can be found on one dedicated page.

A rich snippet displays the top favourite horses from each race. Each snippet has an option to “See All” that opens up the full race card. 

All of today’s racing features are on the first page. However, If you’re looking for some early value then the futures specials section is a good place to start.

Football Betting

Its football market is just as impressive when it comes to huge events such as the World Cup and Champions League. It is just as accommodating to those who like the more obscure leagues and competitions. 

To kick things off as soon as you have the app you can join in the free-to-play game – Ladbrokes 1-2-Free. This is a football competition where you have to pick 3 correct scores to win a prize. (ts & cs apply, 18+, begambleaware.org) 

Push notifications are well used to ensure users are well aware of all the latest offers, such as football coupons (which are commonly up for grabs). The notifications are also handy to keep track of live scores and bet progress.

There are unique, quirky betting systems in place, like the 5 A-Side option that helps separate Ladbrokes away from other football betting apps. Here, users can select five players from a specific match and predict how each will perform. For example:

• Goalkeeper – To concede 1+ Goals.
• Defender – To make 3+ Tackles.
• Defender – To be Carded.
• Midfielder – To make 1+ Assists.
• Striker – To score 1+ Goals.

The odds are displayed and grow as each selection is made. Once happy with the predictions and price, a stake can be set and the combined bet placed. 

Ladbrokes Mobile Casino

The Ladbrokes Casino app is also available and has been integrated nicely into the betting app. Users can seamlessly switch between betting on the latest Premier League fixture and enjoying a spin on the roulette wheel.

You do not need to have a dedicated casino in order to play some games. There is a gaming tab in the bottom right corner of the app where you can get selected games and play the Instant spins competition.

As with the sports book-based bonuses, you’ll find plenty of promotions and free bets to keep you going on the casino side too. These offers expand across a range of slots, table games, and the live casino app.

The variants of games are endless. There are many different types of poker and roulette games, including both European and American wheels.

Our Verdict

Ladbrokes showcases consistent quality across their in-store, desktop and mobile devices. Their app is a must for any enthusiastic punter. It continues to be one of the best on offer.

We’d thoroughly recommend the Ladbrokes app. It continues to offer betting at the very forefront of the industry, which is of course where every punter wishes to be.
