Thanks to the fact that Betfair is a betting ‘exchange’ you get better odds than the big bookies, instead of placing a bet against the house you are betting against other punters.

Betfair’s mobile site allows users to do everything you would expect to do on the desktop site, including browsing and placing odds on both the exchange and fixed odds site, play the online casinos, deposit and withdraw funds and view your account history.

Betfair has developed special apps for the iPhone, iPad and android and is also compatible with all windows phones.
