That said, these payments methods vary from one country to another.

Nothing really compares to Melbet’s mobile app. They spared no effort to come up with what can simply be described as the best betting app. It is compatible with Apple, Android, and Windows devices, which is quite rare to find! Upon installing the app, you get to go through a 5-step demo of how to use the app which is quite frankly very thoughtful of them as not everyone is tech-savvy.

The app has all the features you get on the site. It also allows you as the user to exclude live streaming for those that are mindful of mobile data consumption.

Melbet have also optimized their website for mobile which makes it easy to access even for phones that may not be ideal for the app.

Overall, the experience on the app is first-class. Once you use it, you will find absolutely no need of using the desktop, unless absolutely necessary! Find out all details about the app in Melbet app review

As listed above, customer service is really one of Melbet’s strong points. You can reach out to them in a variety of ways whenever you have a query or an issue that you want to address and the feedback is usually quite speedy and professional at all times.

We used the live chat function on the website and we were able to communicate with the customer service agent instantaneously who addressed all of the queries we asked in a very courteous manner.

For those that prefer calling or sending an email(s), those options are also available at your disposal and we are pretty certain you will be satisfied with the service there too.

You can find all these details at the bottom of the page in the ‘contacts’ section.  text here

The one area they probably need to add is an FAQ section which surprisingly they do not have.

How to get help from customer support?

Melbet have gone out of their way to make their registration and verification process as easy simple as possible. They have 2 channels through which all new users can sign onto their platform:

-via phone number
-one click method

Each of these methods simply require confirmation of basic details. Upon filling out of the necessary details, you create a password and choose which bonus to receive from a list of 3 options (or no bonus if you do not wish for one).

You will receive then receive confirmation message to your phone and your account is good to go!

Even though they came into the game later than other well-established players in the betting industry, Melbet is giving them a run for their money. They have a slick design and a very easy-to-use interface.

Opening an account and transacting with it is really simplified. There are customized payment methods to choose which are really tailor-made to suit specific country needs.

The platform is quite superior with robust sportsbook and betting options and odds that are second to none. Any lover of sports and sports betting will easily be impressed by the number of betting options available particularly for top events/games.

The Welcome Bonus is also quite attractive for first-time users and the conditions are not unnecessarily stringent.

As such, we highly recommend Melbet to all those that are looking for a place where they can get tremendous value for their bets as well as an executive betting experience.
