STS Bet does not currently offer its services in the UK
STS Bet Overview From Our Team
They are Ok but nothing really stands out betting wise. There are many UK betting sites better than them at pretty much everything. The one thing they do have an edge over most competitors is the number of deposit methods they seem to have. If you have a problem using a debit card and want more options than the standard E-Wallets, then STS could be for you.
In the U.K., online betting sites are banned for those under 18 years old. Play responsibly, on safe sites registered with the Gambling Commission.

STS Bet Free Bets, Offers & Promotions
Sports Welcome Bonus

Like every good bookmaker there is a Free bet to use on any sport as a bonus offer.
STS Bet offers new customers a sports welcome bonus when they join. Customers will need to register an account with STS, and then make the first deposit of at least £10. The code SBW10 must be used when depositing funds, in order to be eligible for the bonus. Deposit method restrictions apply; deposits via EcoPayz, Neteller/Skrill, Rapid, and MuchBetter will result in customers being ineligible for the sports welcome bonus.
Customers must then wager at least £10 on any pre-match or In play market in the STS sportsbook, with min odds of 1/2 (Decimal 1.5) or higher. If you place an each-way bet, only the winning portion of the wager will count towards the promotion, so this part of the bet must be at least £10. Minimal risk wagers are also disqualified from this offer. Within 48 hours of settlement of this bet, customers will then receive a welcome bonus in the form of a £10 Free bet.
The Free bet is valid for 30 days from the date it is credited to a user's account. Winnings from the Free bet must then be wagered 8x on any sports betting markets, at min odds of 1/2. Funds will not be moved to a user's withdrawal account until all requirements have been met. It is unusual for online bookmakers to ask new customers to wager the winnings of any Free bets that they are given so this is a negative here.
Extra 5+ Acca Returned Stake Free Bet

STSBet Acca Bonus.
Place a wager of between £5 and £10 on a pre-match accumulator with at least five selections, with minimum betting odds of 1/5 per selection on any sports market (except Horse racing). If one selection loses, your stake will be refunded as a sports Free bet.
This offer is open to all new and existing customers registered and verified at STSbet .co.uk. Any bets with stakes below £5 won't qualify for this promotion. However, customers can still place a wager of more than £10, but the maximum refund will be a £10 Free bet. If any one of the accumulator bet selections is abandoned or void, leaving fewer than 5 selections, the qualifying bet will no longer be valid for the promotion.
Qualifying bets must be placed with real money and not bonus funds. Any wagers placed on special bets or boosted markets, will also not count towards this promotion. Users must also not use the Cash Out feature for any part of their qualifying bet. As with other promotions, deposit method restrictions apply; deposits made with Skrill, EcoPayz, Neteller or MuchBetter will not qualify. A maximum of one Free bet up to £10 per day will be received by each customer; this refers to the day the qualifying bet is settled.
The Free bet value will be credited within 24 hours of all selections of the sports accumulator bet being settled. The Free bet is valid for 7 days after being credited, and can be used on live or pre-match sports markets, excluding horse racing. Fortunately, there are no wagering requirements on the Free bet winnings, so any winnings will be added straight to the customer's withdrawal account. The Free bet stake will not be returned with any winnings, so keep that in mind when making your wager.
Casino Bonus

STSBet Casino Welcome Bonus.
STS also offers a Casino Bonus Welcome Offer, as well as various other casino promotions, for customers who enjoy a flutter at the casino as well as sports betting.
STS Bet Odds
The odds at STS Bet are not so good and at best can be described as average. They hover around the 7% margin level which is at the limit of the main UK bookmaker's odds. For the minor games they do not actually get worse, but you will very rarely find STS Bet best priced on any particular bet.
To demonstrate this point we look at the Man Utd vs Leeds game (English Premier League, September 10th, 2022):
Match Odds - 7.38%
Bookmaker | Man Utd | Draw | Leeds | Margin |
---|---|---|---|---|
STS Bet | 21/50 | 19/5 | 520/100 | 7.38% |
Bet365 | 4/9 | 15/4 | 5/1 | 6.97% |
William Hill | 4/9 | 18/5 | 11/2 | 6.38% |
Ladbrokes | 4/9 | 7/2 | 11/2 | 6.86% |
Betfred | 1/2 | 19/5 | 5/1 | 4.17% |
Over/Under 2.5 - 7.24%
Bookmaker | Man Utd vs Leeds Over 2.5 | Man Utd vs Leeds Under 2.5 | Margin |
---|---|---|---|
STS Bet | 47/100 | 31/20 | 7.24% |
Bet365 | 8/15 | 6/4 | 5.23% |
William Hill | 8/15 | 11/8 | 7.34% |
Ladbrokes | 1/2 | 6/4 | 6.67% |

What to Know About STS
STS History
A well-known bookmaker in Poland, STS was established in 1997. Today, the STS Gaming Group has over 1,500 employees, more than 440 betting shops in Poland and four offices across Katowice, Warsaw, Prague, and Malta.
In 2019, STS began operating in European markets, under UK and Estonian licenses. STS is a dominant player in the Polish betting companies market, with over 45% of the market share. Despite its large number of betting shops, the majority of revenue for the company is generated online via its betting site. Although STS is a relative newcomer to the UK betting market, STS is ranked 27th in the EGR Power 50, making it one of the largest operators in the betting industry.
In addition to its sports betting services, STS has also begun to offer online casino and live dealer card games, in order to continue to expand its product portfolio.
Key Features Of Betting With STS
The sport with the largest number of different markets offered by STS is football, with over 1,000 markets available to wager on, covering tournaments from all over the world. As well as the usual extremely popular sports such as football, basketball and American football, STS Bet offer markets on some more obscure sports, such as Pesapallo, Floorball and Alpine Skiing. There are also a surprising number of Handball markets available to punters.
They also have a rather unique Welcome bonus for new users, but it is not in a good way. There are wagering requirements in order to be credited with the Free bet, but this is quite standard so far. There are the usual T&C's, for example, 'minimal risk' bets are disqualified from the offer - such as betting on every available outcome, perhaps one team +0.5 pre-match and then the other team In-Play at kick off. Assuming your qualifying bet is OK then the Free bet will be credited to your account within 48 hours of your qualifying bet being settled. It is valid for 30 days from the date credited. All fine so far BUT...
Any Free bet winnings must then be wagered x8 on any sports markets! And at minimum odds of 1/2. Only once the wagering requirements have been met, will funds be moved into your withdrawal account. This is very unusual and a major negative when it comes to assessing the value of the Welcome bonus.
STS Bet Sports And Markets
The STS betting site offers a wide range of different sports markets. If you are looking to place a sports bet online, you are sure to find an appropriate market in their sportsbook. The following sports are covered on the STS site:
Football betting is one of the bread and butter offerings from STS, with a good amount of their focus being on this sport. They cover every football league you could possibly imagine from all around the world, Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria... and the is just the A's! There is also a depth to the coverage which you do not get at all UK online sites, they go through all the UK domestic leagues but also abroad as well, it is not just the German Bundesliga you can place bets on but all the way down through to the Oberliga, Germany's fifth tier!

The STS Sportsbook covers a large number of international football leagues.
All the while your betting limits remain high and although the odds are not fantastic they are consistent and you know that your bet will be accepted. New customers can use the Sports Welcome Bonus on any football match they fancy as long as the first deposit is by debit card and the odds of the bet are over 1/2.
The STS sportsbook has a separate section of the site specifically for those who like betting on horses.

STS horse betting mini site.
This mini-site is perfect for finding the race you want from anywhere in the World, with an easy Navigation bar in the Header switching between the next races for those in a hurry, to the races for today, or tomorrow, AND they even have a results page which is super handy too.
From the races available today they are all listed by country, and from within there you see the times each race starts (displayed as UK time) and you can see which of the meetings you will be able to watch the races if you are betting on the races there.
If you are a football fan then you are in luck at STS, as Football has by far the widest number of markets available, and there is a constant stream of horse meetings from around the world to wager on, at any given time of the day or night. There are also a number of virtual sports markets available, although these and the other sports represented above have far fewer options for punters to choose from. Fans of sports like cycling, Formula 1 and golf have only a handful of markets to peruse, although STS state that more are available on request.

How To Make A Deposit to STS
In order to deposit into STS Bet you should follow these steps:
How To Withdraw from STS
In order to withdraw you must:
STS Bet App
As of September 2022, they do not have a mobile App. They claim that they are planning to release one in the near future but they said that in February and there are no specific dates mentioned for when it can be expected.

The FAQ page states that they do not have a mobile betting App but hope to soon.
STS Bet Sign Up
In order to sign up you must follow these steps:
How To Bet At STS Bet
In order to bet you must have registered an account and have deposited funds into it. Once that is in place you first go to either the "In-Play" or the "Pre-Match" sections of the website, depending on whether the event has started yet or not. Once you are in the correct area then navigate to the sport, and from there find the specific sporting game or match. If it is simply who will win the match then you can click on the relevant outcome there but if it is a more specific thing, such as a correct score, then you will see a small number on the far right of the match, click on this and all the other betting options will appear. Find what it is you want to bet on and click the odds of that choice. By clicking the odds that bet will be moved to your bet slip and from there you can either bet on just that as a single, or you can add more bets and turn it into an accumulator.
How To Edit A Bet At STS Bet
It is not possible to edit a bet here, once the bet has been submitted then that is it, you will either win or lose, there is nothing left for you to do now other than wait.
How To Cash Out A Bet At STS Bet
When you use Cash Out you are ending a bet early, and taking whatever the value of the bet currently is now. This can be more than your stake amount and you lock in a profit if it looks like your bet is going to win, or you can cut your losses and get at least something back if it looks like your bet is about to lose.
Cash Out is not available for all sports and is most often found for sports such as Football, Tennis and Basketball. You will know what bets you can cash out because you will see the special logo ($) on the markets while making bets. If the ($) is not displayed, Cash Out is not available on that bet. Should you wish to Cash Out, all you need to do is click on the ($) or “Cash Out” button located in the open bet area of your account or bet slip.

Advice For STS Betting
The Welcome bonus is actually probably worth declining rather than accepting here. Because you must wager the Free bet first and then any winnings 8x after that, your funds are effectively locked for the whole wagering period. STS are the only bookmaker we know of that have this policy. The amount of wagering is so high that you will likely lose more trying to complete it in time, than by just betting on what you want and withdrawing anytime you like with no restrictions.
STS Bet Summary
STS Bet has a few novel quirks which make it memorable, such as asking your occupation upon registration, but there is nothing that makes it stand out as being particularly good. The Welcome Bonus is quite unique too in the way it is structured but the T&C's are uniquley bad, not uniquely good. They have a large range of payment methods which to their credit but the lack of a dedicated App, and the difficulty some people find accessing the site from a regular laptop device means that they are always going to struggle to compete in the UK market.
