REALBOOKIES.COM PAY PER HEAD REVIEW

According to its website, the RealBookies.com team has been involved in the PPH industry for over 20 years, but it launched its website in 2010. They provide sportsbook operators with the tools to run and sustain a bookie business.

We learned that they offer a free trial, which allowed us to test the player and agent platform without paying for it. The trial period was enough to get a feel of what it’s like to use the PPH solution.

Signing up for an account was easy. You only need to fill out the online form. After submitting the form, wait several minutes for an email from the PPH provider. The email contains your login details and the URLs for the agent and player websites. In addition, the email informs you about the rate for every active player.

You must check the dashboard once you sign into the agent website. In our case, the Dynamic Live and Prop Builder add-ons were on by default. According to the email, they are free to use during the two-week trial. If you don’t want them, turn them off before the trial ends, or you will pay additional fees. After the two-week trial,  Real Bookies will require you to deposit $200 or more. Then, they will provide two more weeks for free.

The agent platform has several helpful features that you expect in bookie software, including an automated online wagering platform, live in-game betting options, and online customer support. One thing we liked about the RealBookies.com PPH software is that it provides a guide for new bookies. During your first login, the dashboard asks if you have experience using a PPH service. If you answered no, you will be provided with a guide on how to use the PPH platform. This is a good feature because new bookies tend to be overwhelmed with all the tools and features you can find in the dashboard.

The dashboard’s home page shows everything you need to know about your sports betting operation, including balance, open bets, and top losers and winners. The agent platform is also easy to navigate and lets you immediately find what you want.

RealBookies.com already set the number of players based on what you indicated in your registration form. The good news is that you can easily add new players via the player management section. Also, you can change all the settings in the player profile except for the Player Name, which is used for login.

Some features we liked about the RealBookies.com bookie software:

• Contests – You can make Sports Pools, such as squares and survivors. This is unique to RealBookies.com.
• Poker – We are surprised that Real Bookies offers poker as an add-on. Thus, you can easily organize poker tournaments for your players.

If there is one thing that RealBookies.com needs to improve on, it is its player betting sites. Although bookies have two betting sites to choose from, both sites use the same sports betting platform template. The only difference is their color palette.

In addition, we didn’t like the process of placing a wager. The design is too cluttered with betting options, confusing new players. Due to the crowded interface, using the betting site on a smartphone is also tricky.

Real Bookies offers two Dynamic Live that give your players access to live betting. However, it is not part of the regular service. That means you will pay extra for the option. On the other hand, other PPH providers include live betting as part of their basic service.

Another addon is the Prop Bet Builder. It is not worth the extra $2 per head because it was sluggish when we tried it. Also, other PPH services include the Prop Bet Builder in their basic packages.

On a positive note, we liked the racebook. It allows players to wager on races from over 70 tracks worldwide.

RealBookies.com offers its PPH services starting from $9 per head. You’ll get all the basic features and tools to launch a sportsbook. It is ideal for beginners who want to start their sports betting operation because the agent platform is easy to use. The regular service includes sports betting, racebook, and online and live casinos. Also, they provide a guide for people to learn how pay per head works.

One thing that sets Real Bookies apart from other PPH providers is the ability to set up pools for players. Thus, you can set up March Madness Square or brackets for the Super Bowl. In addition, it is one of the few PPH providers that offers poker as an extra feature.

Although RealBookies.com has good sportsbook software, we can’t recommend it to our readers due to its pricing. Although its starting rate is affordable at $9, the basic package lacks some features that you can find in other PPH services, such as prop bet builder and live betting. Thus, we suggest looking at PPH providers that offer comprehensive services at the same price range.
