LiveScore Bet Overview From Our Team
LiveScore Bet Ireland are a new bookmaker and a logical spin-off to the hugely popular livescore.com website. They have a focus on football and horse racing with specific Free bet offers for these sports as well as the general accumulator bets offer. There is live streaming for horse racing covering more races than most, bringing customers ALL races from Ireland, the UK, the US, and South Africa. LiveScore Bet offer other live streams to any customer who has a funded account according to their website but during our research we did not find any. Overall though they have a quality product with a large range of ongoing offers and promotions which helps to make them one of the best Irish bookmakers that there is.
In Ireland, online betting shops are banned for under-18s. Play responsibly, on safe sites registered by the Revenue Commissioners.
LiveScore Bet Offers and Free Bets List
Place your first bet of €5 or more on any sport at odds of 1/2 (Decimal 1.5) or greater to qualify for five €10 Free bets credited upon settlement — regardless of whether your bet wins or loses. There is no need to use a LiveScore Bet promo code for this offer.
Simply place two €10+ pre-match Accas to get another €10 Acca Free bet. A qualifying bet is one with four or more legs at minimum overall odds of 5/1 (Decimal 6) between Monday and Sunday to get your €10 free bet to use on another Acca.
If the Starting Price (SP) is bigger than the one you take then you take, then LiveScore Bet will pay the SP odds.
On selected races each day LiveScore Bet will pay out for the first three horses home rather than the industry standard two, or first four horses home rather than the industry standard three.

LiveScore Bet Odds
The below table compares the match odds for the UEFA Nations League game between Scotland and Ireland, played on the 24th of September 2022.
| Bookmaker | Scotland | Draw | Ireland | Margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LiveScore Bet | 21/20 | 2/1 | 5/2 | 10.69% |
| Bet365 | 11/10 | 21/10 | 5/2 | 8.45% |
| William Hill | 11/10 | 2/1 | 27/10 | 6.9% |
| Sky Bet | 11/10 | 2/1 | 12/5 | 9.29% |
| QuinnBet | 6/5 | 21/10 | 13/5 | 5.49% |
You can see that unfortunately for this game LiveScore Bet has a margin of just over 10% meaning that the odds will almost certainly be better at most other betting sites. It is possible that other sports and other betting markets may be better in the future.
What to Know About LiveScore Bet
LiveScore Bet is relatively new compared to most best online betting sites in Ireland but the LiveScore Group has another online bookmaker, Virgin Bet, which has been around for longer so the team behind the LiveScore Bet site know what they are doing. As well as their regular offers they have “pop up” offers that require a bonus code and are short term price boosts on football markets either on the day or the next day. It is worth checking their offers page before accepting the regular bonus to see if there is something there that takes your fancy.
LiveScore Bet History
Livescore.com was founded in 1998 as a global sports media business. It provides real-time sports updates and also results across 200 territories. They have begun to add live streaming and recently added LiveScore Bet to their group. Building on the existing user relationship and strong brand name LiveScore Bet aims to “deliver a best-in-class product” for their customers whilst encouraging safe and fun gambling.
Key Features of Betting at LiveScore Bet
- Cash Out Value. Unlike every other betting site we have ever reviewed the value of cashing out a bet is the same as the stake amount, right up until it goes In-Play. This value is fixed, regardless of what happens to the odds of your selection. With a little bit of imagination it is possible to be certain of competitive odds for every bet you place because of this, but this should not be considered betting advice. It is a glitch with the website which could be fixed at any time.
- Linked Price Boosts. The Price Boosts at LiveScore Bet offer great value and are nearly always linked into a three way multiple bet of games played at similar times for the same sport. What this means is that if you are settled in and ready to watch your favorite sporting action, it is a good idea to see what Price Boosts they have because there is a good chance there will be one linked to the games you are about to watch.

LiveScore Bet Casino
Virtual Casino
As well as being a betting site, LiveScore Bet also has a casino accessible from the same LiveScore account. There is a full range of games for you to play, including roulette from just 10p stake, blackjack, baccarat, craps, slots and more! In total there are over 500 games for you to choose from.Many betting sites offer customers a Welcome offer of some kind, usually either Free spins or a cash deposit bonus to encourage them to cross over into the casino area, which is a more steady source of income for them. LiveScore Bet, remarkably, does not do that though. There is no Casino Welcome offer at all, instead, they have some daily Free spins offers to reward your regular play. They have the Free to play game Search for the Phoenix:
The object of the game is to match as many winning symbols as you can across the week. You can unlock once a day which gives you 6 picks so you need to come back every day to stand a chance of winning. The rewards range from:
- £750 Cash
- £250
- £20
- £10
- £5
- 50 Free spins
- 10 Free spins
- 5 Free spins
This is one of the LiveScore Bet promotions that requires no qualifying deposit. You just need to log in and make your picks, and hopefully win a prize. Separately they also reward ongoing play with the so called Game Show Treats promotion. This week it is: Lightning Roulette but the game will vary each week.
All you have to do is simply play 5 rounds (min bet £1) on Lightning Roulette once per day between 23rd – 25th September & get a £1 bonus that is credited instantly into your account. You can use your Cash bonus on any Live Casino game of your choice!
Live Casino
The Live Casino offers fewer games to play, just Roulette, Bacarrat, Three card Poker, and BlackJack are the traditional Casino games available. They do have other novelty games though, such as Monopoly Big Baller, Crazy Coin Flip, and Crazy Time, all of which can be played with stakes as little as 10p.
LiveScore Bet do not have any of the other vertices some of their competitors have, there is no Poker Room, Bingo Hall, or Virtuals section, instead, they are clearly intent on making the best go they can of the betting site!
LiveScore Bet Live Betting
LiveScore Bet Ireland has live betting (known as “In-Play betting) for a number of the sports which they offer bets on. There is a separate “In-Play” tab on the left hand navigation menu and clicking on this will bring up the In-Play betting section of the site.
You can see along the top all of the sports that currently have In-Play betting available, as well as how many games there are in each currently available. In this example, we had tennis, football, Aussie rule, badminton, baseball, basketball, cricket, darts, and golf, but this is not the full number of In-Play betting sports, these are just the ones who were available at that time. You also have the option to view just the events which have live streaming available. The page as standard displays the current In-Play betting highlights, and this will obviously change depending on what is currently taking place. You are given a helpful summary of the game scores and the current odds on each outcome to win. If you click on a match that interests you then you get more details like below:
An “In-Play” game as you can see from this tennis match example has a number of markets to bet on, and you can see not only the odds but also how they are moving (are they going up or down). You have a summary of the scores so far at the top middle and also to the right either a live stream of the event or more likely a graphical display of what is going on. You are able to watch what is going on and bet on it from the same screen with a bet slip opening on the right hand side, which is very nice.
If you want to watch the race in more detail (because it is quite hard to properly see what is going on using the small screen) you can enlarge it to take up a lot more of the screen, but be warned, you now lose the ability to do anything other than watch the race.
