Top 5 Mobile Bookmaker Apps to Download for On-The-Go Race Betting

If you’re the kind of person that’s always on the go, you may find visiting your local bookies to be a laborious affair that doesn’t always easily fit into your daily routine. You might not even get the chance to sit down at your computer once in a while to place your bets. Luckily, just for people like you, mobile bookmakers allow you to keep up to date with all your betting needs, straight from your smartphone.

Today, we’re looking at the top five UK mobile bookmakers, which offer racing bets. These sites have been handpicked based around their odds, their range of betting options, their bonuses and, of course, how well they perform on mobile. Let’s count down!

1. Coral

Coral is one of the UK’s biggest bookmakers and it’s one of the most popular high street brands. However, did you know that you can also download the Coral app straight to your mobile phone? This allows you to place bets wherever you are and there are thousands of markets available both before the event and in-play.

What’s more, at the moment Coral offers all new players £20 in free bets when they sign up and place a £5 bet. This means that you’ll receive 400% more for your money and extend your odds even further.

2. Paddy Power

Chances are you’ve already heard of Paddy Power. The site is famous for their controversial tweets and their hilarious adverts. Yet marketing ploys aside, the site is also one of the best mobile bookmakers around.

They offer hundreds of different race betting markets and all of these can be accessed through the Paddy Power mobile app, which performs flawlessly on both iOS and Android devices. Once you’ve placed a bet, the app also lets you livestream any UK or Irish horse races.

New players at Paddy Power also benefit from a £10 ‘risk free bet.’ Simply put, this means that if your first bet up to £10 is a loser, the bookmakers will fully refund it in cash. This gives you the perfect opportunity to try out the Paddy Power mobile app as, because at the end of the day you’ve got nothing to lose!

3. Sky Bet

Sky Bet is a great online bookmaker to visit anyway, but their innovative mobile app means that on-the-go punters can enjoy all the benefits of the website delivered straight to their mobile phone. Furthermore, horse racing fanatics will be pleased by the variety of markets on offer and the fact that you can watch the races live.

Sky Bet also offers a brand-new cash out option on select horse races, which means you can check your bets as the results come in and decide whether you should quit whilst you’re ahead in between races. New players will also be able to pick up a £10 free bet when they register, no deposit required!

4. Ladbrokes

Much like Coral, Ladbrokes is a household name in the UK. After all, it has been one of the nation’s biggest bookmakers for over 100 years! Luckily, however, their age isn’t showing as they offer one of the most modern state of the art apps around.

As well as offering the same markets as their online site, the Ladbrokes mobile app also allows you to set-up a personalised home screen, so that all your favourite markets are easily accessible. Moreover, the ‘Quickbet’ option allows you place repeat bets with just one tap of your finger and you can also enjoy live streams of all the action.

At the moment, Ladbrokes is offering a ‘Bet £5 Get £20’ promotion to all new players. As the name suggests, this means that when you deposit and place a bet of £5 or more, you’ll receive free bet tokens worth £20. The free bets will be credited as four separate £5 tokens, but remember to spend them quickly as they’ll expire after four days!

5. Bet365

In our opinion, we’ve saved the best for last as we think Bet365 offer the best mobile bookmaker app out there. Bet365 are well known for providing an extensive range of betting options. With thousands of markets to play on, you can rest assured that you’ll find something which suits your gambling style. Moreover, the app works amazingly well across all devices, and everything can be accessed in a single tap. You can manage your bets, watch races and even deposit and withdraw all from your phone.

Bet365 also stand out from the crowd, because they accept a plethora of mobile depositing methods. Players can fund their accounts via credit or debit card, e-wallet or even via mobile billing. This makes them not only an excellent place to enjoy horse betting, but also to experience slots and more in their pay by phone casino section. In addition, all new players are treated to a 100% deposit match bonus of up to £200 – enjoy!
