Company Information
Bet365 is known for having one of the best sports markets to hit the online gambling industry. With full coverage of games and tournaments, the platform has reached out to a pretty total target market in the EU, especially the UK. The Tennis section, in particular, is a fan favourite because of the many events that included in the betting section. If you like tennis as much as I do, you’ll probably love placing bets on the tennis matches offered here.
The tennis section offers a lot of matches not only in the regular sports section but also in the in-play section. So for those who like the heart pumping feeling of betting on live tennis games, you’ll most likely appreciate whatever Bet365 has to offer. If you haven’t checked it out yet, then I’ll save you some time on research by providing you with a full review on the tennis and tennis live sections of Bet365.
Bet365’s Tennis Section – Navigation and Features
Let’s start by taking a look at the aesthetics and the design of the tennis section. To get there, go to the Bet365 homepage and then click on Sports. After that, click on Tennis and you’ll immediately see a list of the matches that you can bet.
When it comes to Tennis, Bet365 has one of the most comprehensive lists of events you can find from French Open matches to ITF M15 matches and many more. There are new matches every day, so you inevitably won’t run out of games that you can wager on.
What I found helpful is that for various tennis matches, I had access to information on sets, games, and player. I could choose between a wide range of live tennis events such as Match Coupon, ATP Hertogenbosch, ATP Stuttgart, WTA Hertogenbosch, WTA Nottingham, Challenger Columbus, Challenger Lyon and etc.
Another superb feature on the site allowed me to filter tennis competitions thanks to the ‘Next 24 Hours’ tab located above the mid-section. To top it all, I really appreciated the functionality of my bet slip which is positioned on the right side. I can switch back and forth between two modes – the Banker and Standart. What I found out is that if I want to play with Banker mode, I must have a minimum of 3 selections on my bet slip. Otherwise, it won’t be work.
Available Betting Options
As of the betting options, Bet365 has quite a lot to offer. Here’s what I have to say about these options:
Tennis Tournaments
I’ve already mentioned that the tennis section includes great tournaments such as the French Open, the Women’s French Open, and the ITF M15 matches. Aside from that, there are many more that you can choose. You can also select the specific matches that you want to bet.
For instance, the French Open matches today include Juan Ignacio Londero versus Corentin Moutet, David Goffin versus Rafael Nadal and more. There are also stats in the Tennis section’s list so that you can monitor the figures of the game.
Markets
Just in case you’re wondering, there are a lot of other sports markets that you can bet on other than tennis. Some other very popular sports markets that you can bet on include greyhound racing, horse racing, football, and even basketball.
Other than those, Bet365 offers so many more sports markets as well such as volleyball, baseball, snooker, handball, golf, rugby, motocross, and badminton. They also offer eSports markets just in case you’re a fan of betting on those CS: GO or DOTA gaming tournaments.
Tennis Odds
The odds are among the most important things about any sports book because it will determine how much a punter can win. That’s why it is always essential to discuss odds when reviewing a bookmaker.
Now, I have tried the tennis sections of other bookmakers on the internet. I noticed that Bet365 tennis gives me one of the highest winning rates out of all of them. That in itself shows that they have pretty good tennis odds. Doing some research, I also found out that I’m not the only one saying the same thing. A lot of punters have also commended Bet365’s tennis section for having excellent odds that are somewhat higher than the market standard. It’s worth it to play in Bet365’s tennis market if you’re in it to win it.
Now that that’s done let me go through some of the formats the odds have. The tennis section has odds that come in decimal, fractional, American, and American/fractional form. You can choose any format you feel comfortable.
Betting on Tennis Live
The next thing that I’d like to review is the live tennis section or the in-play tennis section. Now, this section is a lot of fun because you can bet on your preferred player while he or she is playing the game.
To get to the live tennis section, click on the In-Play tab and then click the Tennis tab. Similarly to the regular sports section, you’ll see a whole list of tournaments and their specific matches that you can bet on.
You have two options in this section. The first one is to watch ‘All Events’ and the second one is ‘Live Streaming’. Other important options are:
- Overview
- Event View
- Schedule
Bet365’s Tennis Live Stream
To add to the whole live betting experience, Bet365 also offers a cool live streaming feature that allows you to watch the game on the platform while you bet. That way, you don’t need to look for a third party streamer to watch your match.
You’ll find the live streaming portion on the right side of the tennis In-play page once you’ve selected the match that you want to bet. There will be a space there that says, “Live Streaming Available”. Just click on that space, and you’ll be able to watch the game live from your laptop or computer.
If you want to take advantage of the Bet 365 live-streaming feature, you need to be logged in your profile, to have a positive balance and to have placed a bet within the last 24 hours.
Virtual Tennis
If ever you get tired of regular tennis, you always have the option to go for virtual tennis. Virtual tennis is quite like the real match except that it is a simulated match. It’s kind of like betting on a video game match based on a real one.
To get there, scroll through the betting markets found on the left side of the webpage and click on Virtual Sports. After that, click on the Tennis tab. You’ll then be led to a pre-picked virtual game with a live streaming video where you can watch it. Below the video are the scores and the tennis results.
Mobile Betting
If you’re not that much of a desktop or laptop user, don’t fret because you have the option to use the mobile platform for Bet365. There are two ways you can access the platform: via app download or mobile website version.
For app download, you can either go to the website or look for it in your app store. For Android users, there is a .apk file that you can download while the iOS users can find Bet365 in the Apple store.
To give you an idea, the mobile platform is pretty much just like the desktop version function-wise. Design-wise, the mobile platform is more optimized so that it can fit the screen of your phone. That’s pretty much the only difference.
Pros and Cons of Bet365 Tennis Section
While Bet365’s tennis market scores high in a lot of aspects, I want to look at it in the most objective manner, which is why I took the liberty of listing down the pros and cons of this section so that we can have a clear view on its strengths and weaknesses:
- Pros:
- High tennis odds
- Wide range of tournaments
- Nice tennis bonus
- Covers obscure tournaments
- Includes live streaming
- Cons:
- May restrict players who won too many times
As you can see, Bet365’s tennis section is pretty good at an overall standing, which is why there are so many punters flocking there.
Payment Options
Depositing and withdrawing are easy with Bet365. The primary methods for payment are debit cards and eWallets. There is also the bank transfer and cheque options, but those take quite a while to process transactions.
I prefer using my debit card to make deposits and withdrawals instead. For deposits, the money would usually be credited into my account right away. For withdrawals, it would only take a few days before the transaction is complete.
Contact Details
If you feel like contacting the support team, the best bet is to use the live chat feature of the website. That is the most practical method because live chat representatives are online 24/7.
There are also other methods of communication if you’re not a live chat person. You can email Bet365 for any questions or use the hotline. There is also a fax option if you still have a fax machine. You can check the details on the website.

Conclusion and Rating
I would say that the tennis section of Bet365 is something that would appeal to a lot of tennis-loving punters. First of all, it has an extensive selection of events that you can choose. As mentioned above, Bet365 also includes some of the more obscure tennis games that aren’t usually covered by other bookmakers. Other than that, the tennis section’s odds are higher than the market standard, making it a popular choice for high rollers.
When it comes to bonuses for tennis punters, Bet365 also doesn’t disappoint. You have tennis offers that you can avail of. More about them you can learn by visiting the bookie’s webpage. Finally, the tennis section has an excellent live stream section that is available for the in-play tennis section and the virtual tennis section.
The only con, which is a big complaint from players in Bet365, would be that the platform restricts players who win a lot. That is especially true in the tennis market, as per my experience. Thankfully, it hasn’t happened to me yet.
That said, though, Bet365’s tennis section gives the whole experience. It is flawless and perfect for any tennis-loving gambler out there. That’s why it can get a high score of 4.8 over 5.
