Thanks to the evolution of technology, there are more and more advanced and efficient smartphones, gadgets, tablets, and this is one of the many reasons which is currently influencing the growth of mobile internet, including mobile betting.
Many online betting sites took advantage of this growing usage of mobile internet and decided to launch mobile versions of their betting websites in order to be accessible for all platforms and smartphones. Some of the mobile versions of the betting websites are so good and so well optimized that they manage to successfully copy most of the features and options available on the desktop/web page: live betting, live streaming, deposits, withdrawals, account preferences etc.
With just a few exceptions, each online bookmaker has a mobile page or a mobile betting application available for Android or iOS. Bet365, Paddy Power, Unibet, William Hill, Betfair, Ladbrokes, Betclic, BetVictor are just few names of online bookmakers who created dedicated pages for mobile betting.

Mobile betting is no longer something optional, but a necessary thing given the fact that we live in a world where speed and accessibility matter the most. Online bookmakers are improving their mobile platforms day by day in order to ensure that their customers have the best comfort and the same user experience on a mobile as on a pc. Also, in addition to the mobile betting platforms, there are online bookmakers, such as Unibet or Betsson, who are developing mobile apps with Live Scores, TV Guides and statistics.
Online sports betting is not the only thing which got mobile, but also other gaming and gambling services delivered by online bookmakers: casino, games, bingo and even poker. You can now enjoy a full package of excellent online betting services directly from your smartphone or tablet when you're on a bus, on a train, at work or anywhere else where you have no access to a pc.
