Viks Sportsbook Review

Bookmaker   Viks Sportsbook | Reviewed   17 Sep 2016 | Updated   17 Jul 2019

Licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, Viks is one of the many online sportsbooks serving the UK. With so many sportsbooks in the market, what, if anything, does Viks offer that’s different from other operations? Find out as we cover this site’s bonus, design, sports, deposit methods, and customer support.

Viks Sportsbook Free Bets & Bonuses

At the time of writing there are no specfific sports free bets available at Viks.

Viks sometimes offers you a 100% match bonus on your first deposit, and you must deposit a minimum of €20 to get the bonus. You need to wager the bonus amount plus the deposit at odds of 1.5 or higher to collect your money. Sports betting bonuses and Free Bets are not always on offer at Viks so you need to look out for specific promotional events which give you the chance to take advantage.

One of the current promotional offers running is a hybrid casino bonus which gives you 5 Free Spins to use at half time of qualifying matches where you have placed a bet which is a nice time killer whilst you wait for the action to start again.

Viks Sportsbook Design

There’s nothing flashy about Viks. It features a simple navy blue and light blue color scheme with no embellishments to speak of. The good news is that this simplistic design allows you to quickly navigate through the site without much thought. The bad news is that the boring design takes away from the experience.

Ending on a positive note, Viks is available in multiple languages, including English, Finnish, German, and Swedish.

Sports Offered

If you’re not worried about an interesting website design, then you’ll appreciate all of the different sports offered here. Viks features a wide variety of lines on American football, Australian rules football, baseball, cricket, eSports, football, golf, ice hockey, racing, and rugby. You’ll also find lines for more-obscure sports like alpine skiing, chess, darts, Gaelic football, handball, ski jumping, and table tennis.

Lines are available right when you land on the homepage for whatever sport is currently live. You can quickly change the sport by using the menu on the left-hand side, and selecting subcategories if need be.

Deposit Methods & Customer Service

You can make deposits at Viks sportsbooks using Euteller, Neteller, PaySafeCard, Skrill, Trustly, Visa, and bank transfer.

You can contact customer service using live chat, and Viks does a good job of featuring the live chat button on several parts of their site.

Viks Sportsbook Conclusion

You won’t be blown away when you first visit Viks and see this site’s design. Some punters might find this simplicity enjoyable, but we think that it’s too plain in this case. Beyond the overly plain design, Viks offers a nice welcome bonus along with numerous lines on many different sports with some interesting casino crossovers. Whether you’re looking to wager on a big event or less-popular sports, Viks has what you’re looking for if you're a casual bettor or are new to sports betting.
