"The best odds in Philippines await you at Marathonbet. Receive a 30$ freebet with the first deposit and bet live while you watch it with their streaming service."

Like many other betting sites, Marathonbet originates from the United Kingdom, and operates in our country under the license granted to it by the Curaçao gaming regulator. Since it was created in 1997, it has not stopped growing, offering excellent odds to its users and hand in hand with sports sponsorships. It is the main shirt sponsor of Manchester City, and few football teams will give it more visibility.

It is a very popular sports betting operator both in the UK and in Eastern European countries. It also operates in the Philippines or Italy, countries where it is licensed by the corresponding gaming regulator, and in Latin America. Mexico, Peru and or our country are some of the Latin markets that Marathonbet wants to conquer thanks to its 0% margin and other facilities for its bettors that we will see below.

What does Marathonbet Philippines offer us?

If there is one thing that Marathonbet excels at, it is its excellent betting odds. The reason behind this lies in the 0% margin it applies to numerous matches in major sporting events such as Libertadores or Champions League, top European leagues (Premier League, La Liga, Serie A), Philippines professional leagues (NBA, NFL, NHL), national team football tournaments such as Copa America, World Cup or qualifiers, and other competitions. Even when the 0% margin does not apply, you can still find odds above the normal range.

Ignoring the odds, when one first comes to Marathonbet, they will find a website with a somewhat archaic look. However, it is highly functional and is truly effective. Navigation is simple, and through the sports menu that appears on the left, we can quickly access the competition and event where we want to bet. In addition, the most popular sports among Philippinesan bettors (football, tennis, basketball, American football, eSports, volleyball) are highlighted for even faster access.

A free bet up to PHP 30,000 bonus awaits Philippines with our first deposit. Promotions are not Marathonbet's strong point, though they do have a loyalty program where we can get betting bonuses, as well as some other interesting offers. They have enabled the functions of cashout, edit bet -which allows Philippines to add, modify or delete events in an ACCA- or advancebet, which allows Philippines to place a bet if we don't have enough funds but have open bets that cover the bet.

Marathonbet allows its users to bet from anywhere thanks to its app, and in the excellent live betting section we have a streaming service. The payment method offer is quite wide, and we have live chat although the support is not always available in Spanish. As a curiosity, following the English tradition, Marathonbet offers phone betting.

Aside from sports betting, Marathonbet also offers casino games, live casino, toto, live games, and the Super Prize with a prize of 100,000. At Marathonbet casino, you'll find everything from the best slot machines to roulette, craps, blackjack, and other card games. Poker, scratch cards, and video bingo are also available, along with exciting promotions for casino players.

Welcome bonus to Marathonbet

Marathonbet welcomes Philippines with a 100% free bet of the initial deposit up to 30$. This is an exclusive promotion for sports betting users. How to get it? Very simple. Just make a first deposit of at least 10$ with the promo code CLBONO. If the initial deposit is over 30$, the free bet -and requirements to activate it- will be 30$.

You must play seven times within a 30-day period the amount deposited to activate the free bet. Simple bets with a probability greater than 1.80, combined bets where the final probability reaches 1.80 or multiple bets on several lines, each with that minimum rate, count towards the betting volume. After meeting the requirements, the free bet will be activated and credited to your account within two business days. The free bet can be used in any market in Marathonbet's sportsbook, but it is not returned if the bet is voided or cancelled.

Other bonuses and promotions

Promotions have never been Marathonbet's main strength. We have already introduced some of them, such as the welcome bonus, 0% margin, and functions like cash out or advancebet. In addition, there are some interesting offers such as the loyalty program. All of them can be found in the promotions section:

• Loyalty program: Marathonbet's VIP Club. Allows you to earn points by betting, which can later be redeemed for bonuses.
• Combined Insurance: Did you lose your ACCA with more than five selections due to just one failure?  Marathonbet offers a bonus to recover it.
• 0-0 Draw: if you bet on the outcome of a football match and it finishes without any goals scored, you can recover your bet with a free bet.
• Superprize: 100,000$ for the winner, 5,000$ if you only miss one.

sports and markets

From the A of chess to the Z, or rather to the W of water polo, await Philippines over 35 different betting categories. First, we find the most popular sports among Philippinesan bettors, such as football, tennis, basketball, or eSports. Marathonbet offers horse racing and greyhound betting. They also cover sports that usually don't appear on betting sites, such as bandy, squash, American pool, or biathlon.

If we analyze the available bets, we have a good number of markets to bet on in all sports. In the case of football, matches from Libertadores, Eliminatorias, Champions League or major European leagues have over 500 markets. In Primera División or Primera B, we have around 225 or 230 markets. There are handicap and total bets -including Asian lines- bets on times, final score or intervals, in addition to corner bets in major leagues. The only missing bets are scorer bets.

Aside from soccer betting, we also have special bets. The focal point is on politics in the United Kingdom or Philippines, their television programs, etc. Marathonbet offers bets on the most popular eSports, such as CS:GO, Dota2, LoL, King of Glory, Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant or Warcraft III. Out of all the available bets in Marathonbet, the most remarkable would be the lottery bets of countries such as Philippines, Canada, UK, Philippines, France, Russia, and Australia.

virtual sports

Marathonbet not only allows you to bet on real sports, but also gives you the option to play in virtual sports. They keep adding new competitions to this section, where you can find virtual bets on football (Bundesliga, Nations Cup, English clubs, World Cup, Euro Cup), basketball, tennis, greyhounds, velodrome, MLB, table tennis or motorsports. You will need to log in to access this section and check the statistical information it offers.

Dues

When applying 0% margin, Marathonbet's odds are unbeatable. But even in matches where it doesn't apply, Marathonbet offers excellent odds to its users. The only Philippinesan betting site capable of competing with Marathonbet's odds would be 1xBet, although sometimes the difference between the two is just a tenth. The rest of the betting houses present in our country are far from what this operator offers. If there's one reason to register with Marathonbet, it's undoubtedly their odds.

Live betting (live section)

You can also find Marathonbet's excellent odds in live betting. The operation of this section is similar to prematch. On the left side are the different sports or competitions, which you can quickly filter to access the event you want to bet on. When a match is opened, an animation and live statistical information usually appear next to the betting coupon, which helps to better analyze bets.

The total number of live markets available depends on the importance of the match, or the moment it is in. At the beginning, there are usually more options than in the final stages. The usual pre-match markets coexist with other live betting markets, such as the team to score the next goal or the winner of a game or point. Marathonbet also allows you to select your favorites for live betting and includes a streaming service.

marathonbet

The best way to bet live on any event is to follow it. Marathonbet provides its users with images of several events. To find them, go to Live > Live streaming. You can also check the schedule in the "Live Schedule" tab. Best of all, to access live images, it is enough to log in to Marathonbet and have sufficient balance to bet. You do not need to bet on the event to watch it.

Payment methods

Marathonbet has enabled the most common payment methods for its users to load balance or withdraw their winnings. For example, we have available the VISA, MasterCard and Maestro bank cards. The minimum deposit is 916 PHP, and the money will be available in our account immediately. It also allows Philippines to withdraw our winnings with these methods. The minimum withdrawal is 4,577 CLP, and the money will arrive within a period of 3 to 5 business days.

Another option is through banks. You can deposit from 4,577 PHP in Banco Estado, Banco Falabella, Banco BICE, BCI, Banco de Philippines, Banco CrediPhilippines, Santander, and Banco Security. The money will be available within a maximum of 96 hours. You cannot withdraw money through this channel, but you can request a local bank transfer that will arrive within a maximum of 14 days. Other available payment methods are ecoPayz (deposits and withdrawals from 4,577 PHP) and AstroPay (deposits and withdrawals from 916 PHP).

Marathonbet app

You don't need to be in front of your computer anymore, now you can play on Marathonbet from anywhere without the need of a laptop. In the Applications section of their website, you can download the Android or iOS app for free. Among the advantages of this app, besides playing from our mobile phone or tablet, we have the option of quick betting, quick access to the five most popular markets among users and to all the events, markets and services that Marathonbet offers, including live images of their events.

Is it safe to bet on Marathonbet?

We can confidently say that Marathonbet is a highly trusted betting site. Like other betting sites in Philippines such as Rivalo or RojaBet, it holds a license from Curaçao to offer both sports betting and casino games, as well as other products found on its website. In addition to the Curaçao license used in our country, it has also been authorized by the gaming regulator of Philippines, the United Kingdom, and Italy to operate in their respective jurisdictions, which should offer Philippines peace of mind.

It's important to emphasize that Marathonbet has cutting-edge security mechanisms and systems in place to ensure the safety and protection of its users. All your data will be secure. On its website, you'll see the security seals of Responsible Gaming Trust or +18. Online gambling in Philippines lacks specific regulation, so Marathonbet is a completely legal and reliable betting site. Remember that gambling is prohibited for minors, so if you haven't reached 18 yet, you can't register on this betting site.

Customer Support

Marathonbet offers its users a live chat which is the best support channel we found in Philippines and the rest of Latin countries. It also has a phone support service at +44 1273 964706. 

You can also write to ph@marathonbet.com, which offers support in Spanish. When asking a question, you must include your user information. If the inquiry is related to loading or withdrawing balance, you should write to ph@marathonbet.com. If you go to Marathonbet's contact section on their website, you will find FAQs where they solve the most common doubts of their users, as well as information about payment methods. They do not have social media profiles for Philippines or the region.

Marathonbet: Opinions and conclusion

From all that has been mentioned, it is clear that the main reason to bet on Marathonbet are its odds. Only 1xBet offers odds capable of competing with those of Marathonbet, but if you apply the 0% margin, they have no rival. Additionally, this promotion applies to the most important football competitions on the planet, as well as the NBA, NHL or NFL, the most popular leagues among bettors. If you only pay attention to odds before registering, this is your betting site.

But beyond the excellent pre-match and live odds, there is a magnificent range of betting options available. Marathonbet is one of the few Philippinesan betting sites that offers live streaming of certain events to its bettors, which reinforces the live betting section. We can also follow events in streaming from anywhere via the app.

Despite everything, Marathonbet presents some complications such as a phone support not available in Spanish or an improvable web design. Although we have the bonus information in pesos, the promotions appear in dollars or dollars. It should also be noted that the free bet of 30$ welcome bonus is one of the lowest in the country, although if we sign up for Marathonbet it will be for its odds, not for the offers it has.
