Banzai Bet review: mobile wallets and cards on one cashier
Banzai Bet was founded in 2023 and holds a Curaçao licence. Its sportsbook covers football, basketball, tennis, cricket and rugby, plus niche sports such as kabaddi and hurling, with pre-match and live betting.
bKash, Nagad and Rocket are listed for deposits beside Visa, MasterCard, Skrill, Neteller and AstroPay.
Our verdict: a flexible choice if you want both mobile wallets and cards. In our example match the margin is 6.6%, against 5.7% across the books we compare.
