Asian bookies

Asian bookies are built around the Asian handicap and totals, thin margins, high limits and few promotions. They welcome winners, which makes them the choice of serious football bettors everywhere.

What makes an Asian bookie different

An Asian bookie does not try to be a supermarket. The menu is football first, with Asian handicap and over/under as the main markets, priced at margins that European books rarely match. Limits are high, promotions are rare, and accounts are not restricted for winning: the business model is volume, not bonus hunting. Many bettors reach these books through agents rather than direct accounts, which is worth understanding before you deposit.

What to expect

  • Licences. The Isle of Man and the Philippines are the usual ones; Curaçao for some.
  • Markets. Asian handicap, totals, first-half lines and, on the biggest sites, hundreds of live matches a day.
  • Payments. E-wallets and bank transfer; higher minimum deposits than the average bookmaker.
  • Interface. Plain, fast and unchanged for years, which is what regulars want.
