For immediate release
BestCasinoPortal launches sports and esports betting, rated by its Trust Index
The new hub rates licensed sportsbooks on odds, markets, payout speed and safety across eleven major sports plus esports — and the ratings are never for sale.
LONDON, United Kingdom — 16 July 2026 — BestCasinoPortal today launched a dedicated sports and esports betting hub, extending its independent, never-for-sale Trust Index from online casinos to licensed sportsbooks.
For years the site has rated casinos on safety rather than sponsorship. The same principle now applies to betting: every sportsbook is scored on odds value and margins, how deep its markets go, live in-play betting, payout speed, licensing and responsible-gambling tools — and no operator can pay to move up.
Eleven sports, plus esports
The hub opens with a best sports betting sites pillar and dedicated pages for eleven major sports, including football, basketball, tennis and American football. Each page explains how betting on that sport works and which licensed books cover it best. A separate esports betting section covers the biggest competitive titles, from Counter-Strike and League of Legends to Dota 2 and Valorant.
The same Trust Index, applied to sportsbooks
"Sports bettors deserve the same honesty we give casino players — a rating that reflects how safe and fair a book is, not how much it pays us. Every sportsbook is scored on the same never-for-sale Trust Index." — Alex Korsager, Chief Gaming Officer, BestCasinoPortal
The full rating methodology is published so bettors can see exactly why a book earns its score, and the review desk revisits ratings as operators change their odds, markets or terms.
"The questions bettors ask most are which book has the best odds and who pays out fastest. Those are the factors we weight, and we publish the method so anyone can check our working." — Jonas Berg, Data & Trust Index Methodologist, BestCasinoPortal
The sports and esports betting hub is live now at bestcasinoportal.com/sportsbooks, with responsible-gambling guidance a click away for anyone who wants to set limits before betting.
