Betting sites & exchanges
Any comparison of bookmakers for basketball starts from the same question: does the brand hold a Gambling Commission licence? This section keeps that question first.
New and best-rated sites, independent bookies, high-limit and no-limit sites, spread betting platforms and exchanges are all described. Exchanges operate under the betting intermediary licence, and tables for each kind are left to separate articles.
A .com address is what licensed operators use, so nothing follows from the address; the Commission’s public register is the test. Stake ceilings in sports betting are not fixed by statute as far as has been established, so every operator decides its own maximum.
