NOTE: Due to the recent legislation, Interwetten no longer accepts bets from residents of USA or Turkey.
Recent improvements to the Interwetten web site and the addition of payout options to Moneybookers and Paysafecard make this a better betting experience. A slightly sharper pencil when offering fixed odds on favourites would atill improve Interwetten online bookmaker even more.
Interwetten - WHAT's HOT
Excellent for last minute betting (as site is quick and easy to use), solid as a rock - a huge emphasis on security and fairness
Interwetten - WHAT's NOT
Given that 65% of all their traffic is on football at times we'd expect to see better odds, fees can apply on deposits and withdrawals by some payment methods
