Overview
4raBet has been around since 2018, though we still count them as one of the newer bookmakers in India. Some believe that this is a purely Indian betting site, but there is no real evidence for that. We do know that the site is owned by a group of companies and operated by Umbrella Development B.V., which is registered in Cyprus and licensed in Curacao.
This betting site does not just offer a solid sportsbook with plenty of favourite Indian sports to bet on, but also a casino and live casino tables.
We have taken a close look at 4raBet and can conclude that they are a decent betting site in India that has a few things going for it, though we also discovered a few flaws we would like to see addressed in the future.
Here is what we liked about them:
- Welcomes Indian bettors
- Great cricket betting, kabaddi betting and plenty of other sports
- Website available in several languages, including Hindi
- Also offers a good casino and live casino tables
- Attractive and easy-to-use website
Cons
- No separate banking page
- No details about bonus conditions unless you’re logged in
- Little to no information about the operator available
Safety and Security
From what we have learned about 4raBet, the bookmaker seems to have been around for a few years now. This is generally a good sign as it indicates a solid foundation for a betting site. But 4raBet is not necessarily widely known, despite what some reviews online may indicate. It is a smaller bookmaker and online casino, which means it can’t really compete with the big international betting sites.
Still, Indian customers may find it a solid choice. The betting site has a Curacao license, which is not our favourite as it is not customer-friendly, but it is still important that a betting site has a valid license as it usually means they adhere to the most important rules and regulations, even if supervision is less stringent than those of European gambling jurisdictions.
Of course, this also means we judge 4raBet based on its own merit. We found some positive as well as negative reviews about this bookmaker. Mostly, customers seem to bemoan the long withdrawal times. Some people seem to have had difficulties getting their money paid out, which sometimes takes an inordinate amount of time.
If you worry about late withdrawals or want to find out more, we suggest you do your own research. And you can also simply test 4raBet thoroughly if you find their offering attractive enough to sign up here. Just be sure to make only small deposits and request several withdrawals to see what they are really about.
Betting and gambling at 4raBet
At 4raBet you will find pre-match and live betting options for about two dozen sports betting as well as a range of eSports. As a bookmaker that caters to customers from India, cricket gets its own section, which is great.
Indeed, cricket betting really is quite good at 4raBet, offering up lots of matches to bet on, a wide variety of markets and decent odds. This is definitely a bookmaker where cricket fans will find plenty to enjoy.
Of course, other sports are well-covered, including football, tennis and many American sports. With about two dozen sports to bet on, 4raBet has more to offer than many other betting sites in India we have looked at recently. More importantly, you will find betting options for kabaddi here, which is great news for Indian bettors, who love this sport.
Overall, the odds here are certainly competitive and the live betting section is attractive for anyone who prefers to bet live.
Additionally, 4raBet is an online casino where you can find thousands of slots. Indeed, when we last looked at 4raBet, the slot category showed over 5,200 slots, which is one of the biggest libraries out there. Dozens of well-known and many smaller game providers are available at 4raBet, leaving hardly any wishes open.
Many other types of games are also available at the casino, including hundreds of table games, several dozen video poker games, lottery games, bingo, keno and more. We were definitely impressed with the games available here.
The live casino is smaller, but still offers nearly 200 games, which include Andar Bahar and Teen Patti as well, of course.
Welcome Offer and Promotions
4raBet does have a bonus page, but you won’t be able to access it unless you sign up for an account here. Indeed, when you click on the page, you will be prompted to do just that. And you get offered a 120% cricket welcome bonus or a 100% casino welcome bonus. Or you choose no bonus at all, which is also an option.
Unfortunately, the homepage doesn’t give us any more information about the bonus than that. The bonus conditions are not available, even when you click on the links for casino bonus, free spins or no deposit bonus. Perhaps all these bonuses are even available, but getting further information is difficult as there is also no help or FAQ section.
What we have learned elsewhere is that the bonus is only available for 7 days, which is not a lot. And wagering requirements apply as well. But you either have to ask customer service for details or risk it and sign up without knowing more. You can always opt out as well, though, which is a relief.
Since there is a banner on the homepage advertising promotions and other highlights, we do know that there are more promotions available, including free bets, various tournaments and potentially even free spin offers. This is more than what 4raBet offered in the past, which is great news for regular players who like to get some extra incentives.
Payment methods at 4raBet
4raBet continues to provide very little advance information when it comes to banking methods as well. There is no separate page about this topic and since we don’t get an FAQ or help section, you won’t really find anything more about it anywhere else either.
Even the terms and conditions aren’t very helpful here, which is irritating to say the least.
We do know that 4raBet offers credit cards, eWallets, PhonePe, PayTM, GPay and other convenient options for you to make deposits and withdrawals as well. But there is just nothing else we could find out, which we were rather annoyed with.
As such, we don’t know whether fees might apply, what the transaction limits are, especially for withdrawals and what else we might be missing here.
You can expect there to be a KYC process and we do recommend that you get your ID verified sooner rather than later. And from what we have heard elsewhere, withdrawals can take quite a while to be processed, approved and finally made to your account. We certainly recommend you do your own research here and test 4raBet thoroughly.
Support
We would usually recommend that you ask the customer support team for further help, but they also don’t really enjoy a great reputation. Whilst there is a live chat, it does not appear to be available around the clock. You do have the option to write an email instead, but that is likely going to take some time before you receive a reply as well.
If you do manage to talk to someone via the live chat function, replies are not fast, often short and sometimes you are simply sent a link to information that doesn’t really answer your question either.
This is entirely unsatisfying and doesn’t improve our experience with 4raBet. Things do seem to have improved somewhat, but they are nowhere near what we would expect or need of a betting site that already provide little information on its homepage.
Software
The 4raBet homepage is definitely attractive. We like the colour scheme, which is easy on the eyes. The site is modern, navigation is intuitive, the layout is relatively classic but not boring.
You get easy access to all parts of the betting site, which means if there is something missing here, it is not likely to be buried elsewhere.
The 4raBet homepage is also fully mobile compatible and is great for anyone who prefers to bet on the go. You will get full functionality via the mobile page with easy access to your bet slip and thousands of games to play.
Presumably, there are even separate mobile apps, available for iOS and Android, though they are not mentioned on the homepage anywhere, which is a little strange. We only found mention of it in other reviews, which seem credible enough, though.
Summary
When it comes to betting in India, 4raBet is a good option. They have plenty of pre-match and live betting available for favourite Indian sports, decent odds, a good selection of markets and an easy-to-use homepage, which we enjoyed a lot. Whether you are simply looking for good cricket betting or are interested in solid kabaddi betting, 4raBet does a lot of things right.
The casino, of course, is excellent as well, providing tons of games and entertainment as well as promotions for some extra fun.
What bothers us more is the lack of important information on the homepage, which we really want to see improved as it is vital for many customers who consider signing up here.
It is simply not acceptable to only get access to bonus information until after you created an account. Or that banking information are only available at the cashier.
This is further aggravated by the lack of a good customer service, which would otherwise at least alleviate this nuisance. If you had a good customer service to fall back on, you could at least ask pertinent questions in advance, but that does not seem to be an option.
As such, 4raBet may do a few things quite well when it comes to their betting and gambling offer. But there are other aspects that need work before we are happy to truly recommend them without reservation.
