Source categories — what feeds this score

Why this matters: Single-source review sites read very differently from the composite. Selection bias — only the loudest users self-report — is reduced here by aggregating across several sources. The category breakdown below shows the current mix and contribution without naming individual platforms. Methodology v2.1.

Frequently asked questionsexpand

Methodology FAQ

How is bet365 rated?

bet365's overall IndexFair score is 4.5/10 — better than 33% of Australia sportsbook brands. It is computed from 23,070 signals (1,092 filtered as spam or low-quality), by a published formula — methodology v2.1.

How fast does bet365 pay out?

bet365 has 0 captured operator-stated processing windows for Australia (methodology v2.1). On payout-related evidence, bet365's overall-aligned public aspect projection is 4.4/10 (±0.0 vs overall), supported by 2,733 signals. 0 withdrawal-delay complaint signals in the last 90 days.

What are bet365's weak points?

bet365's lowest overall-aligned public aspect projection is Responsible gambling at 4.0/10 (−0.4 vs overall), supported by 241 signals. This is a counterfactual published score with the other blocks and market ruler held fixed, so it can differ from the overall score. The full breakdown is in the score section above.

Why are some scores low but the brand is still licensed?

A market regulator licence reflects regulatory standing — the operator meets statutory and conduct requirements. The IndexFair score additionally aggregates recorded review, complaint and operator-response signals. A licensed brand can hold a low composite when those measured signals are weaker without amounting to a regulatory sanction. The methodology page details the per-block weights.

Where does bet365's score come from?

bet365's score draws on 7 sources: app stores, public consumer-review aggregators, and the market regulator register. The live pipeline combines the recorded raw signals using the published source-trust and time weights. The per-source breakdown is in the Sources section above and at /sources.

How often is bet365's score updated?

Scores recompute automatically whenever new review data, a licence-status change, or a methodology update arrives — typically within a few minutes, not on a daily schedule. Every brand card displays the 'last recomputed' timestamp. Methodology version changes are dated at /changelog.

What is the confidence interval?

The ±0.x bracket alongside a score is a 95% confidence interval derived from sample variance and effective sample size after time-decay. A score of 8.4 ± 0.3 reads as: 95% confidence that the true value lies in 8.1–8.7 given current evidence. Wider intervals indicate small samples or high source divergence between aggregators, not lower brand quality.

Can I trust this if it's automated?

The composite score is computed by a published formula, not editorial judgement — so the same inputs always produce the same output, and the formula is auditable. Methodology versions are append-only at /changelog with effective dates. Disputes route through /privacy/contact; the founder reviews factual disputes (licence status, regulator data). Aggregate review sentiment is not editable on a per-brand basis per source ToS.
