22BET review: wide markets with bKash and Nagad deposits

22BET was founded in 2018 and lists licences from Curaçao and Vanuatu. Its sportsbook covers cricket, kabaddi, football, basketball, tennis and rugby, with esports and political markets on top.

bKash and Nagad are listed for deposits, and live betting is one of its highlights.

Our verdict: a broad sportsbook that suits bettors who want many markets and bKash deposits. In our example match the margin is 5.9%, against 5.6% across the books we compare.
