Bethard

“Winners Dare More!” The slogan mirrors exactly what the team behind Bethard has shown ever since they launched the casino and sportsbook in 2012. Being a group of gaming veterans, they persevered through the first years of their existence on a Curacao license only, touching what we call the grey markets while at the same time laying the groundwork for their expansion into regulated territory. Today, they are one of the most successful gaming sites, offering Casino, Live Casino, Sportsbook, Fantasy Sports and Virtuals, all available on desktop PCs or mobile devices.

The Curacao licence was replaced in 2016 after they successfully acquired one from the MGA Malta. Over the next two years, they added licenses from the Danish Gambling Authority and the Swedish Spelinspektionen, which not only shows their commitment to operating in regulated markets only but also a strict adherence to responsible gambling regulations.

Although I do not have an account with Bethard, I have been following the group for some years and witnessed their rise to a well-liked and trusted gaming and betting hangout. It all peaked in 2018 when they signed none other than legendary Swedish world star footballer Zlatan Ibrahimovic as their brand ambassador.
