Unibet Watch and Bet: How It Works

There is a new and exciting new way to punt at Unibet. With Watch and Bet, you can live stream the game and simultaneously place a bet at any time, without leaving the stream.

Unibet’s Watch and Bet is particularly exciting because it’s the very first betting site to offer punters the chance to watch sporting events live in full-screen mode via their mobile app, and also place bets without leaving the stream. This means that you can place your wager without missing any of the action.

What is Unibet Watch & Bet?

Watch and Bet is Unibet’s exciting new mobile live streaming service where you can watch the events within your iPhone or Android app, and place bets in-play, without having to leave full-screen mode. When it comes to live streaming Unibet has delivered a hugely enjoyable, almost seamless procedure for watching an event and gambling on it.

Not only that, Unibet are live streaming eligible games all throughout the day. With over 40,000 tennis and football matches available using the new Watch & Bet service, you’ll always be able to find something to punt on, while being able to watch the action live. 

With Unibet’s Watch & Bet new feature, you no longer need to worry about having to exit the live stream in order to place your punt. Now, you can watch AND bet (it does what it says on the tin!) while staying within full screen mode, meaning that you won’t be missing a moment of the action as you can bet within the streaming screen of your iPhone or Android app.

Not only that, watching Unibet's live streams via the app means that you’ll be watching with a considerably shorter delay than competitors’ live streams. What’s not to like?! Unibet is regulated by the Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner under the Gambling Act 2005 so you can rest assured that you will not be doing anything illegal and you will be watching fully licenced streams only.

Accessing Live Streaming

There are two ways to access live streaming with Unibet. If you’re not keen on downloading an app for your live streaming, then you can use Unibet live streams on your desktop instead, with Unibet TV. Alternatively, you can of course download the Watch & Bet app for iPhone and Android, if you want to embrace the mobile live streaming experience.

For the best possible live streaming experience, we’d recommend using wi-fi wherever possible. Wi-fi is generally more reliable (not to mention cheaper!) than cellular data, and live streaming can often be a lengthy pastime, especially if your footie match goes to extra time! Remember there is up to a 10 second delay on live streams, and this can be minimised by having a strong wi-fi signal.

The great thing about all of Unibet’s live streaming offerings is that they’re free to watch. However, you do need to make sure that you have a positive balance in your Unibet account, in order to access Unibet’s live streams. Alternatively, you can place a bet at least 24 hours before the event goes live, in order to watch for free. Either way, you can enjoy all of the action of your favourite events, without having to pay a subscription.

Accessing Unibet TV on Mobile

If you’re looking to access Unibet TV’s live streaming offerings on your smartphone, then this is how best to do it.

Firstly, you can access the Unibet website via your phone’s website browser, and watch Unibet TV that way. This offers the widest range of sports markets, but you’ll have to leave the live stream in order to make a wager. Make sure that you’ve got a decent cellular or, ideally, wi-fi signal in order to make the live stream as seamless as possible.

Don’t forget that you’ll need to have an account with Unibet, be logged in AND have a positive balance, in order to enjoy Unibet live streams via Unibet TV.
