Contact Us
This page is for reaching the editorial team behind Best Offshore Betting Sites. Email us at [email protected] and we aim to reply within two business days. Use it for corrections, questions about how we rate fast payout offshore sportsbooks, or to report your own experience with a withdrawal — including one that went badly.
One thing to be clear about before you write: we are an independent comparison site, not a sportsbook. We cannot access your account, release a pending withdrawal, verify your documents, cancel a bonus, or reverse a bet. If your money is stuck at an operator, the section below on escalating a payout problem is the fastest route.
What to email us about
- Payout reports. Which sportsbook, which method (crypto, bank wire, card, voucher), the date you requested, and the date it landed. Dated, specific reports are what keep our payout-speed notes honest.
- Corrections. A bonus amount, rollover figure, minimum odds, fee or limit that no longer matches what the operator publishes. Tell us where you saw the current terms and we will recheck and re-date the entry.
- Questions about our rankings. Why one offshore sportsbook sits above another, or what a rating actually reflects.
- Commercial and media. Advertising, partnership and press enquiries go to the same address; mark the subject line clearly so it reaches the right person.
Please don't send account numbers, passwords, seed phrases, wallet keys, full card numbers or photo ID. We never need them, and no legitimate site will ask you for them by email. Reports about individual bettors' accounts are treated as confidential and we don't pass your details to an operator without your say-so.
How our commercial relationships work
Some links on Best Offshore Betting Sites are affiliate links, and we may earn a commission when a reader signs up through them. That money funds the research; it does not buy a position. Our order is set editorially and an operator cannot pay to move up, nor pay to have a limitation removed. If you think a write-up reads like it was bought, say so in an email — we'd rather argue the point than leave it unsaid. You can read more about who we are on our editorial team page.
The legal position, stated plainly
Every sportsbook we cover is licensed offshore — jurisdictions such as Curaçao, Panama and Costa Rica are typical — and none of them holds a license from a US state gaming commission or board. They accept US players, which is not the same thing as being authorized to serve you. For US bettors this sits in a legal grey area, and it varies by state.
Some states run fully regulated online sports betting under a state regulator, with segregated player funds, formal dispute resolution and licensed operators. Many do not. Offshore sportsbooks give you none of those state protections: no state complaints process, no guaranteed payout, no regulator to appeal to. Check your own state's laws before you deposit. Tax and legality questions are for a qualified attorney or accountant — nothing on this site is legal or tax advice.
You must be at least 21 to use this site and to bet at the operators we list, or 18 where a particular sportsbook sets that as its minimum and your state permits it. We don't knowingly market to anyone below that age.
Escalating a payout problem — the order that works
- Read the cashier terms again. Most delays are a pending rollover, an unmet minimum odds requirement on a bonus, an expired promotion, or a withdrawal above the stated weekly cap.
- Complete KYC. Offshore sportsbooks often run lighter verification up front, then request ID before a first payout. An unfinished check is the single most common reason money sits still.
- Contact the operator in writing. Live chat is fine to start, but get a ticket number and keep the transcript. Ask for a specific reason and a specific date.
- Check the license body named in the footer. Offshore regulators vary a great deal in how much they will do. Some will log a complaint; expect a slower and weaker process than a US state board would run.
- Tell us. We can't recover funds, but repeated dated reports about the same sportsbook change how we rank it — and that's visible to the next reader.
Be realistic about the ceiling here. An offshore sportsbook can delay, cap or refuse a payout, and there is no US consumer-protection backstop. That risk is part of the trade for the odds, limits and markets these sites offer.
Reaching the sportsbooks themselves
Support is a ranking factor for us, so it's worth knowing what to expect before you write to an operator. The offshore sportsbooks we cover generally run 24/7 live chat and email, with phone lines at some of the larger names. We list the channels each one advertises rather than testing response times, and we don't publish direct support numbers here — take them from the operator's own contact page so you know the details are current.
Three operators readers ask about most
Lucky Rebel (editorial rating 10.0) leads our list mainly on crypto payout handling and market depth across NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, soccer, golf and MMA, with live betting and same-game parlays. Its welcome offer is 125% up to $1,250 plus a 50 FreeBet — and like every offshore bonus it carries rollover, minimum odds and a time limit, so read the promotion page before you opt in, because a matched bonus locks your deposit until the wagering is cleared. Limitation: it's a newer name relative to the rest of the list, which means a shorter public track record of paying, and that matters more than any bonus figure.
Bovada (9.9) is the one with the longest-standing reputation among US-facing offshore sportsbooks, and that history is the reason it sits second. Coverage is broad across the US leagues, props and futures, with a racebook and a strong same-game parlay build. Its welcome bonus is 50% up to $250, again subject to rollover and qualifying-odds terms. Limitation: the headline bonus is small next to the 125%–200% offers elsewhere on this page, card deposits can be declined by US issuers, and it does not accept players from every state.
BetOnline (9.9) appeals to price-sensitive bettors — reduced juice options, higher limits than most regulated US betting sites will take, and wide in-play markets. The welcome offer is $250 in free bets; free-bet stakes are typically not returned with winnings and come with minimum odds and an expiry, so check those before you plan around it. Limitation: crypto is where its payouts move fastest, and bettors sticking to bank wire or card should expect slower turnarounds and possible fees.

Money questions we get asked before signup
Opening an account costs nothing; the cost is your deposit and the vig built into the pricing. Most offshore sportsbooks run USD balances, so a US bettor usually avoids conversion — except with crypto, where you're converting into and out of a volatile asset and the dollar value of your balance can move against you between deposit and cash-out.
- Crypto (Bitcoin and other coins where offered) is the fastest and usually the cheapest route out, and it's the reason "fast payout" and "offshore" tend to appear in the same sentence. Network fees apply and confirmation times vary.
- Bank card deposits are common but frequently declined by US issuers; some operators charge a processing fee, and cards are rarely a payout method.
- Bank wire handles larger amounts and is the slowest, often with a fixed fee at the operator's end and sometimes at your bank's.
- Money transfer and voucher or player-transfer options appear at several of these sportsbooks as a fallback when cards fail.
Every operator sets its own minimums, maximums, per-week payout caps, free-withdrawal allowance and KYC trigger point. Read the cashier page, and treat advertised payout speeds as the operator's claim, not a measured result.
What we cover, and what sits elsewhere
Our reviews look at odds and pricing across point spread, moneyline, totals, futures, parlays, same-game parlays and prop bets; live and in-play betting; market coverage from NFL, NBA, NHL and MLB through soccer, horse racing via the racebook, golf and MMA; betting limits and reduced-vig pricing; welcome and reload bonuses with their rollover; banking and payout speed; site security, reputation and track record of paying; customer support; and the mobile experience, whether that's a betting app or the mobile browser. Most of these operators also run a casino and, in several cases, poker or esports alongside the sportsbook — separate wallets and separate bonus terms in many cases, which is worth checking if you plan to move funds between them. We also maintain a separate casino comparison section, and our terms of use set out how this site operates.
Betting responsibly — and where to get help
Betting is entertainment that costs money on average, not a source of income, and nobody can hand you a guaranteed winner. If any betting tips you read here or anywhere else are framed as a "lock", ignore that framing. Set a budget you can lose without it affecting anything that matters, and don't increase stakes to recover a losing run.
Offshore sportsbooks often provide fewer responsible gambling tools than state-regulated operators — deposit limits, cool-offs and self-exclusion may be limited or absent, and a state self-exclusion list will not cover them. If gambling is becoming a problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER for free, confidential help, 24/7. Our responsible gambling resources page has more options, including tools you can install yourself.
Before you hit send
Include the sportsbook's name, dates, the payment method involved, and what you'd like us to do. That's usually enough for us to act on. Editorial mail is read by Tara Whitfield and the review team; commercial mail is handled separately. We don't publish reader emails or names without permission.
Email: [email protected]. Typical reply time is two business days, and complex payout reports can take longer because we verify the operator's current terms before responding.
