What to look for when betting at William Hill

Champions League

William Hill is one of the best-known and most popular online bookmakers, both physically and online. The operator has been serving the needs of bettors in England since 1934. Its general offering includes a huge range of markets (from polo to even political election results), admission bonuses, improved quotas, loss returns and live platform. In order to draw an objective assessment of this site and at the same time make a fair comparison, we decided to separate each of the characteristics mentioned in separate sections with a relevant opinion and rating. Throughout our analysis you will be able to read our respective conclusions.

Welcome bonus in two phases

At first glance this offer sounds extremely tempting, but you have to look closely at the terms and conditions of acquisition, to know exactly under what circumstances you get the money. First of all, only new users who open an account and make the first deposit in it, can be creditors of the bonus. So far so clear, but in subsequent specifications come. Firstly, the deposit and the respective first bet made (with minimum installments of 1.5 and for a sum not less than 5€) are rewarded with 50% of the money bet, but up to 50€.

In order to receive the second part of the bonus (for a maximum of 100€), it is necessary to place at least five additional bets which, added together, are equal to or greater than 250€ in total. It should be noted that the selected events must also have quotas of no less than 1.5. The bonus money will be added to the game account in the form of a free bet and will be available for immediate use on any of the operator's markets for a period of 15 days. As you can see, carefully reading the terms of use is of the utmost importance to understand the nature of each offer.

But not all William Hill bonuses bets have a hidden hook. The operator has published a series of promotions that can be claimed by pre-registered customers and that are subject to less stringent conditions. Basically they can be grouped into three styles: combined enhancement, raise odds and betting insurance, although from time to time other specific prizes are published to increase attention to certain specific events, such as classic matches, final phases of tournaments or performance of a super-athlete.

At the moment, the most attractive promotions for the public have at least one representative from each of the categories mentioned. A good example of this is:

  • -"Combi Plus" - 6 or more selections give 40% extra in bonus
  • -"Super Substitute" - The bet placed on the initial player passes to the substitute.
  • -"Gold Quota" - Improves up to 30% of live quotas

Several markets with positive shares

Although William Hill has promotions such as "Gold Quota" and the like, many of the basic sports offered by the operator have no need to improve RTP values. The main football leagues in Europe are the clearest example, as from LaLiga Santander to the Europa League, return levels remain constant above 94% overall. Other popular disciplines such as basketball have even better indices, where in the bets for NBA matches, percentages are reached even higher than 96%.

Live betting and other functions

While some points do not represent a real advantage over the offer that other operators have, other areas far exceed the average present in the sector. This is the case of the sections for live betting, as well as William Hill's app. The live platform of the online betting house is made up of many popular sports and others that seem to remain within the range of public lights but which, nevertheless, enjoy a great deal of follow up among the public. In this way, traditional disciplines such as football, basketball and tennis share space with ice hockey, cricket or handball. By clicking on the special section dedicated to these types of options, all events held at that time are open for selection, divided by markets and presented in chronological order.
