Our Verdict

Just like many sports betting aficionados across the globe, and now New Jersey, we love 888sport.

With easy-to-access fully functioning Sportsbook and Casino and Online Poker all available through the one site, the convenience for players is second-to-none.

It’s a fast-operating platform with great navigation, bonuses, sign-up procedure etc. While more customer support contact methods would be nice, the extensive FAQ’s section and the speed-of-reply to the email inquiry form is great and more than makes-up-for-it.

888sport is redefining the way sportsbooks operate in the Garden State and provides a significant point-of-difference to its competitors. 9/10 from us!
