Usability, Look & Feel - How easy is it to place a bet?
Matchbook insists that its main goal is providing maximum value for its customers. To this end, it strives to provide significant liquidity in whichever market a punter wishes to get trade in.
Matchbook has two different commission rates. If a punter accepts an existing offer in an exchange market, the standard commission rate is 1.5%. If an offer is posted which another customer matches, the standard rate is 0.75%. Both these rates are extremely competitive and compare favourably with Matchbook’s competitors.
Liquidity in betting markets is essential to the success of any exchange company and Matchbook’s website makes a confident statement.
It reads: “We want to grow our community by focusing on our liquidity, one market and sport at a time. To do this, we ensure we have critical mass along with the best price and liquidity offering in the industry, before we add any further markets. We firmly believe that Matchbook’s (competitive) commission charge will continue to drive long term volume to our platform.”
Payments - No foreign exchange services
Matchbook does not provide foreign exchange services. All transactions are processed in the currency of customers’ accounts, which is clearly acceptable for the overwhelming majority of clients.
However, if a customer chooses to send or receive funds in a currency that differs from his or her Matchbook account, the payments provider may charge foreign exchange fees.
Customer Service - A dedicated help centre available
Should customers run into technical difficulties, there is a help centre which features a comprehensive list of frequently asked questions with solutions.
Customers who cannot find out the information they need can contact Matchbook customer services in the UK and Ireland. The telephone numbers for these are supplied.
Overall Conclusion - A small but upcoming sportsbook
Matchbook is still establishing itself as a player in the betting exchange market, with those bookmakers already operating as one having a strong grip on the market at the moment.
As an interesting marketing technique, Matchbook host regular public speaking events to boost their profile and highlight issues in online betting and gaming. They present notable experts on these issues to speak about a real range of issues including political betting and economical betting, and the growth of both markets in the current UK climate.
