Bob88’s platform provides excellent casino and sportsbook sections, with various betting markets and plenty of casino games. Even though it does not have a mobile app, the betting platform will adapt to your mobile device.

To start the registration process, simply access the bookmaker’s website. You will find a “Join” button at the top right-hand corner of the page. Click on it to register. 

1. The first step is rather simple and won’t take you long to get through. Firstly, enter your name and surname as appear on your passport or driving licence. You will then need to provide your exact date of birth and your gender. Finally, you will need to enter an active email address. Once you are done, proceed to the next step.

2. The second step will require you to provide your current address and phone number. The default location country will be set to the United Kingdom. All you need to do is enter your postcode and access the drop-down menu. Select your address, and enter your mobile number, then proceed to the next step.

3. The third step is to choose account-specific information. You will need to pick a unique username, then choose a safe password and enter it twice. At this point, you will be able to select the currency of your account as well. Another thing you will need to set up is your deposit limit, which can be set up to as much as £250 either daily, weekly, or monthly. After finishing the steps above, proceed to the next stage.

4. This step will be very quick. The bookmaker takes another precaution to prevent its customers from betting too much and getting into a losing spiral; this is why you will be required to set a “reality check.” This can be up to an hour. Proceed to the final step after setting the reality check.

5. The final step is crucial - you will be verifying your identity. To do so, you will need to provide a copy of any ID document (usually a passport or driving licence) and a proof of address that is not older than 3 months. You can use a bank statement for this. Submit the documents and wait for the support team to verify your account (this can take up to 2 days). Then your profile will be complete, and you will be able to deposit funds.

Once you have registered your profile, make sure that you have also verified your identity, as this is required before you can deposit funds into your account.

1. You will need to locate the “Deposit” options. It will be very simple to find it since it is located in the top right of the page, between “Features” and “Open Bets.” Click it to enter the payment portal, then proceed to the next stage.

2. The next step will require you to pick a deposit amount and a payment method. You need to know that the minimum deposit amount is £10. The method we will be proceeding with for this example will be a Visa bank card. After filling in the above-mentioned details, proceed to the final step.

3. The final step will require you to enter details related to the chosen payment method. Since the only option is a bank card, enter the information related to this: enter the card number and the name of the cardholder (as it appears on the card). Then enter the expiry date and the CVV. Click “Deposit,” and the funds will be in your account shortly.

Once you are registered and have made your first deposit, you are ready to start betting. The process of placing a bet will not feel any different from what you might be familiar with at bookmakers you have used previously. Locate the sportsbook, which you will find after clicking on “Sportsbook” in the main menu.

1. Firstly, you will notice that you will have a selection of different sports on the left side of your screen. Each sport will include multiple different leagues from different nations that you can explore and bet on. The default settings will be set on “Football” and “English Premier League”, but you can choose anything you like. There will be plenty of sports to choose from, so take your time. Once you have made a selection, proceed to the next step.

2. Once you have selected the sport and the league, you will need to pick the betting markets you will be wagering on. In the middle section of the sportsbook page, you will find all the available games of the leagues you selected previously. If you click on the tab of any of the games, you will get access to all the available betting markets associated with the game. Choose as many as you like. Once you have made your selection, proceed to the final step.

3. The final step is extremely simple. You will need to locate the betslip, which should be situated on the right-hand side of the sportsbook page. There, you should find all the betting markets you have selected in the previous step. The betslip will calculate your total odds. All you have to do is enter the amount you are looking to wager, then click on “Place Bet” to finalise your bets.

Make sure that you have the necessary funds to cover the minimum withdrawal amount (£10) before starting the withdrawal process.

1. Before you can withdraw funds from your profile, you will need to locate the withdrawal portal. To do this, navigate to the top right of the page and click on your username. You will get a drop-down menu with a list of options. One of the options will be “Withdraw”. Select it and proceed to step 2.

2. For this step, you will need to select a payment method and specify the amount you will be withdrawing. The bookmaker only allows you to proceed using the payment method you used to make your deposit. This means that if you used a Visa bank card to make your deposit, you’ll have to use one to withdraw. Enter the withdrawal amount and move on to the final step.

3. The final step will require you to enter the details associated with the payment method you have selected (if you have not saved the card for future payments). After you have provided the required payment information, hit the“Withdraw” button and expect a withdrawal time of up to 5 days.
