ZEbet is a sports betting operator which obtained the approval of the ARJEL (Online games regulatory authority) in 2014, shortly before the football world cup. Its founder, Frenchman Emmanuel de Rohan Chabot, had already created ZEturf, second of the online horse racing betting sites behind PMU, ten years earlier. In case of registration, you will therefore have only one player account for the two sites. This will allow you to switch from one to the other very easily. ZEbet has recently started to make itself known to the general public. In particular thanks to its association with Omar Da Fonseca. The Argentinian, beIN Sports consultant, is the new ambassador for ZEbet. The operator has also concluded an active sports sponsorship contract with AS Saint-Étienne for the 2019-2020 season. A first with a Ligue 1 club for the sports betting site.
Betting and sports
On ZEbet you find all the main sports and major competitions. If its offer is not the most supplied in the sports betting market, the bookmaker still offers nearly 20 different disciplines. All the usual types of bets are available (single, combined, system, live, etc.). Many issues are also proposed (match winner, winner margin, goal scorers, etc.). ZEbet also rewards loyalty. Indeed, with each bet placed you accumulate ZEpoints (between 2 and 18 depending on the odds) which you can then convert into money (2,000 ZEpoints = € 10). This amount is to be wagered once before you can withdraw it. Finally, the sports betting site regularly offers freebets to its members via its social networks (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat).
The ratings offered by ZEbet are regularly among the most attractive on the market. Behind the untouchable Winamax and Unibet, the bookmaker has a special place. It even manages to compete with the two behemoths on certain dimensions. ZEbet is particularly successful in European football bets. Important, the latter being the most popular sector for bettors. However, the betting provider is further behind in the other disciplines. If you particularly like to bet on rugby or basketball, ZEbet will not be the best option for you.
ZEbet bonus
By promising 150 €, ZEbet wants to hit hard with its welcome bonus when most of its competitors do not exceed 100 €. However, it is important to clarify that these are free bets and not cash. It remains nevertheless interesting. In order to benefit from the maximum ZEbet bonus, you must make a first deposit of at least € 100 (the minimum being € 15). Once made, you have 15 days to place your bet in order to benefit from the offer. You can do this on a single bet as a combined bet and no minimum odds are imposed. If your first bet loses, ZEbet pays you your full stake in the form of free bets, up to a limit of € 100, in two stages. First payment of 50% of the amount wagered immediately after the match.
ZEbet has also implemented a second bonus, called an “extension pack”. It consists of two parts and will give you a maximum of € 50 in free bets. Indeed, 10% of your losers paris (only pre-match single or multiple bet) during the first 30 days following confirmation of your account will be returned in the form of free paris the night of 30 to 31 th day. There is still a limit of 25 €. Reboot then. 10% of your losing bets (only in pre-match, single or combined bet), during a new period of 30 days starting from the reception of your first part of the “pack extensions” , you will be returned in free bets and credited at night from 30 to 31 stday. The limit is also set at € 25, or € 50 maximum for the total. Note that to be able to withdraw your bonus ZEbet, you must replay it in full at least twice!
ZEbet: promotions and challenges
By choosing to bet with ZEbet, you will have access to a range of challenges, challenges and promotions making the betting experience fun and diverse. The Cash Out feature, which has been on the site since 2017, allows you to recover part of your wagering before the end of a match and allows you to secure part of your winnings before the final outcome of a match.
The House of Coach Fanstasy Leagueoffers the possibility of creating your dream team and according to the actual performance of the players you win points and a ranking is established. Depending on your points and your place in the ranking, you win prizes. Multiple football competitions are offered (Champions League, Ligue 1, Premier League, Liga, Serie A, Europa League). An NBA challenge also exists almost every night. Prediction grids are also present (five, seven or ten predictions) with matches determined in advance.
Live betting ZEbet
This is one of the big shortcomings of ZEbet: the lack of a streaming service. A feature that exists among some of its competitors. The bookmaker therefore does not offer the best conditions for live betting. A live tracker and a dynamic statistics system still allow you to follow the match fairly precisely. Even if, of course, it will never replace the video of the live match. The number of scenarios proposed (number of goals / points, handicap, half-time bets, etc.) is interesting.
ZEbet social networks
ZEbet is very active on social networks (mainly Facebook, Twitter and Snapchat) where it regularly offers promotions and other freebets to its members. More than 17,000 people like the Facebook account of the sports betting site. It also has nearly 10,000 followers on Twitter and more than 1,500 on Instagram. These are relatively low numbers. What is astonishing for an operator however well present on the social networks. For comparison, Unibet and Bwin are the two bookmakers to have the most “Likes” on Facebook with respectively more than 886,000 and almost 755,000. The observation is quite similar for all social networks and ZEbet ranks each time among the latest in terms of popularity.
ZEbet application
You can download the ZEbet app easily and for free from your smartphone. Whether on Android, where you will find it on the Play Store, or on iOS, where it is available on the Apple Store. It will allow you to take advantage of all the options offered on the ZEbet website (prediction grids, House of coach and Cash Out) on your phone and thus be able to bet at any time and in any place very easily. The ZEbet application took advantage of the important update carried out in March 2018 to correct certain malfunctions or slowdowns. Even if it does not yet support fingerprint authentication, the connection remains fairly fast.
The ZEbet application offers almost exactly the same service as the site. Only certain minor championships, present on the site, are not on the application. If it does not offer the most important catalog of games, there are still the main sports and competitions with almost 20 different disciplines (from football to snooker through tennis, basketball and rugby). All types of classic bets are available (combined, “system”, 1N2, winner’s margin, name of scorers, etc.). You will find the same options on the application and on the ZEbet website. Live betting or Cash Out are available. It allows you to recover part of your stake in the event of a poorly forecasted forecast or just to secure your winnings. The lack of a video streaming service is lacking. You can follow the matches using a live tracker with live score and a dynamic statistics system. ZEbet stands out by offering prediction grids, but above all with its Fantasy League game “House of coach” available for football and basketball. You will be able to face other players by building virtual teams in these different sports.
ZEbet payment methods
There are many ways to pay for your money deposits. The bank card, Paypal, Skrill or bank transfer are the processes prioritized by ZEbet. You can also use Paysafecard, Ticket Premium, Neosurf or even Cashlib / MoneyClic, but we do not recommend it. Indeed, between 2.5 and 4% transfer fees are added to the sum. The deposit threshold is € 15 for the recommended means of payment. For withdrawals, the sports betting site has innovated. In addition to the traditional bank transfer, it also offers to recover your earnings via Skrill. Provided that you have previously made a deposit with the electronic wallet. The minimum withdrawal amount is also € 15.

Step 2 – You can then connect to the bookmaker’s site by entering your username and password. You can then make a deposit. Just click on the yellow “credit” button .

Serious or scam
It is obviously essential to ask this question before thinking about registering on a sports betting site and entering your bank details. ZEbet is completely reliable. The approval obtained by the ARJEL (online games regulatory authority) is the first proof. It is a serious guarantee of reliability and it is the first thing to check during your research. The presence of PayPal among the means of payment is also another reason for trust. It is a safe bet when you know the requirement it has when choosing its partners and the importance it places in data protection. To a lesser extent, the association of ZEbet with Omar Da Fonseca, the beIN Sports consultant, who is its ambassador, or the sponsorship contract with AS Saint-Etienne can reassure you about the seriousness of this bookie.
ZEbet customer service
ZEbet’s customer service is particularly efficient. This is largely due to the large number of possibilities to contact him. The betting provider has provided you with a telephone line (01 70 61 57 35), a contact form, a chat with an advisor and an e-mail address ([email protected]), open seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. The only negative is the absence of an FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions), which would solve minor problems without having to contact customer service. However, the results remain very positive for the sports betting site.
