How to read this score
Evidence index, not a quality score — comparable only within UK sportsbook (same category, jurisdiction & methodology major version). The number summarizes what independent evidence shows, weighted and filtered by a fixed method; it does not grade taste, value or experience beyond what the evidence measures.
Transitional scale — this category is published under a transitional certification basis while its weight set completes certification.

It shows the published cell score if all user-experience evidence matched this aspect while the other blocks and the market ruler stayed fixed.

Frequently asked questionsexpand
Methodology FAQ
How is bet365 rated?
bet365's overall IndexFair score is 5.4/10 — better than 52% of the United Kingdom sportsbook brands. It is computed from 45,558 signals across 8 sources (2,086 filtered as spam or low-quality), by a published formula — methodology v2.1.
Is bet365 licensed in the United Kingdom?
bet365 operates under a licence in the United Kingdom (current licence status on record: active). A licence reflects regulatory standing only — the IndexFair score adds user-experience and operational signals on top, so a licensed brand can still hold a low score.
How fast does bet365 pay out?
bet365 has 0 captured operator-stated processing windows for the United Kingdom (methodology v2.1). On payout-related evidence, bet365's overall-aligned public aspect projection is 5.4/10 (±0.0 vs overall), supported by 2,739 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 5.1/10 (−0.3 vs overall), supported by 250 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 UK Gambling Commission 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 8 sources: app stores, public consumer-review aggregators, and the UK Gambling Commission 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.
