Fun88 App Review

In today’s review we will be taking a look at one of the best-known betting companies in the industry, Fun88. Licensed and regulated by the Gambling Commission of Great Britain, the site is perhaps most recognised as being Newcastle United’s official shirt sponsor. However, it is not solely its sponsorship with the football club that has seen a rise in customers, it is also down to the innovative, exciting website that the team at Fun88 have worked so hard on to improve. With Fun88, users can put money on a whole host of varying sports such as football, basketball and much more, as well as taking part in casino games and live in-play betting action. Here, we will view the positives and negatives regarding Fun88 and decide whether or not the site is the right choice for our readers.

How to Use the Fun88 App

As of writing this review there are no dedicated Fun88 application on either stores for Android or iOS devices, however that does not mean that users on those platforms cannot avail of everything Fun88 has to offer. Despite not having an app in the stores, the website is specifically optimized for users on mobile devices, so whether it be on tablet, mobile or any other type of device, users can be assured a quality experience on the Fun88 website. And, if users are unwilling to use the Fun88 website as they only use apps, there is no reason to completely shut Fun88 out of the picture as there will likely be a new app in the future due to the huge demand for betting apps nowadays. Fun88asia.com do offer a Fun88 APK file download for Android users, and a new app for iOS users, although downloading this app can be a longer process than what is usually necessary, so we do not recommend downloading the app through this method as it is likely not as well-made when compared to the actual website.

When users open the Fun88 site for the first time, they will notice that the interface is more or less no different to what they would be used to on a natural betting application. Although the home-screen and menus are quite dark, the site is laid out very well and even the most novice of users should be able to navigate with relative ease.

Before placing bets on sports, playing casino games or following today’s live action, users can sign up or login to their Fun88 account by tapping on the icon that best fits their purpose in the top right. For new users, the registration process should not take too long and once completed, they are free to enjoy all that Fun88 can provide to its customers.

Fun88 Features

With Fun88 only coming onto the scene from 2017, it is no surprise that there are less features compared to other, more experienced betting firms. That is not to say that the site has nothing interesting for its users, because it most definitely does. These are few and far between though, and Fun88 will take time to grow into its potential. One of the features that actually adds to the experience is the live in-play betting, which brings users even closer to the sports they love, offering new odds as the action unfolds minute by minute. Added to that, there is also the in-play cashout feature, so users can cash-out their bets before the event ends, if they wish. This helps to prevent any potential losses and take home any winnings that they have earned early. Unfortunately, there’s no live streaming service, which is something that will surely be looked into sooner rather than later, as many of the “big” betting sites provide this feature. The regular promotions offered by Fun88 are cool, allowing users to earn bigger winnings by taking part in these offers which make the website a far more exciting site to use.

If users prefer, they can tap on the side-menu and select the Casino option, where they will find most of their favourite games, slots and jackpots. Here, users can play video slots, table and card games and even venture to the Live Casino. In all, there are 254 games on display in the Casino section, including some themed games like the brand new and much-loved Game of Thrones games.

Fun88 Welcome Offer

At the time of writing, Fun88 are offering a handy offer to new customers who sign up with the bookmaker. With this, users will get £28 in bonus credits when they spend £28 on the site. To get this, new users must simply sign up and create their brand new Fun88 account, tick the relevant box which will opt them into the offer, and place a bet. Bets must be between £10-£28 and must be placed before the beginning of an event. When the bet is settled, users will automatically be credited with their bonus which users must then accept to see the funds added to their account. T&C’s apply.

Fun88 Payment Methods

With Fun88 users have a few different payment methods to choose from, namely: MasterCard, Visa credit and debit cards, Neteller and Skrill. This is a small list, particularly when looking at the payment methods available with other betting firms, however Fun88 is a new company making progress and we are sure there is more to come in time.

The minimum deposit and withdrawal limits for MasterCard and Visa cards is £20, which is quite a lot higher than most other bookmakers where the limit is usually set at £10. With Skrill and Neteller, the deposit and withdrawal minimum limit is also at £20. The processing time for withdrawals varies depending on which payment method the user has decided to use, but it should not take more than 7 working days. If users deposit with a non-UK registered card or MasterCard Fun88 may not be able to send their withdrawal request back to the same card. With Skrill, the email address for the users account with Fun88 and Skrill must be the same. If they are not, Fun88 may not be able to send funds back to that account.

Fun88 Restricted Territories

Fun88 has an extensive list of restricted territories in which users are not permitted to create an account with the site or use any of its facilities and features. This list includes the likes of: Belarus, Denmark, France, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan, the US and some of its regions. Australia and China do not have access to the Amaya games.

Users from the UK are able to enjoy all that there is to do with Fun88, but users from the listed countries should not attempt to create an account with the site as they are prohibited from doing so.

Fun88 Customer Service

Thankfully, users can contact Fun88 in quite a number of ways, where they will have their issues treated with respect and a determined team will be on hand to help in whatever way possible. To contact Fun88, users can visit the site and click the Live Chat icon in the “Contact Us” section, email customer service at support@fun88.co.uk, send any relevant documents to docs@fun88.co.uk, or if they would like, users can post any queries to Fun88 2nd Floor Athol House, 21a – 23 Athol Street, Douglas, Isle of Man, IM1 1LB.

Fun88 Summary

During our time using the Fun88 website, we found that the site was far too limited to compete with most other bookmakers, especially considering the market that they are aiming for. Unfortunately, there are simply not enough features to keep the user entertained to remain with Fun88 for any extended period of time, and users will find better odds elsewhere, as well as more variation in terms of available prices. Fun88 is, simply put, not fun. Everything within the website can be found on other, better sites, and realistically Fun88 is just a plain, monotonous betting site that pretends to be something more at times. If any of our readers appreciate a simple interface, decent odds and a small market, then Fun88 is definitely for you. If users want a top-tier betting experience with better odds and more features they should continue searching the internet for others. Not only does Fun88 have little to give, but the minimum deposit limit of £20 is far too much, particularly considering new customers will not want to make such a large investment into something so bland. We cannot recommend Fun88 to seasoned veterans of the betting industry, however it could be a good way to get started for beginners.
