Bonus & VIP & Loyalty Program

Welcome bonus

The bookie HPYBET offers new customers a 150% bonus up to 100 euros. If you want to secure the HPYBET bonus, you must deposit at least 10 euros. If you want to get the full bonus, you have to deposit 100 euros.

How to cash out the HPYBET BONUS

The payout of the bonus and your betting winnings is only possible with this bookie after you have mastered the bonus conditions. These provide for a 6-fold turnover target. Fortunately, this only applies to the bonus granted.

If you transfer 100 euros (first deposit) to your betting account, you will receive another 100 euros from HPYBET as a bonus. This results in a turnover requirement of 600 euros (100 euros x 6).

However, when you clear the bonus, you will have to pay attention to other things in order to meet the turnover target:

• Only the first bet on an event is valid.
• Only single and combined bets with a minimum odds of 2.00 are allowed. If you place a system bet, the odds requirement must be met on all lines.
• You have 90 days to achieve the required turnover

VIP & Loyalty Program

HPYBET does not offer a VIP club or a loyalty points program. Instead, the betting provider has various bonus promotions for existing customers. The following overview illustrates what kind of promotions you usually find at this bookie:

• Odds Boosts
• Winning bonus for combination bets
• Cashback
• Reload Bonuses

Betting offer

If you go to the betting section of HPYBET, you will find almost 25 sports. From soccer, tennis, basketball and ice hockey to handball, volleyball and motor sports, this bookmaker offers all the classics.

However, HPYBET’s betting portfolio also includes numerous disciplines that enjoy great popularity in other parts of the world. With water polo, badminton and floorball, the betting offer even includes real exotics. In addition, there are other popular sports:

Baseball
American football
Rugby
Cricket
As with many competitors, HPYBET also focuses on soccer. On a positive note, the bookie even quotes regional league matches. You can bet on the top European leagues and international competitions like the World Cup or the Champions League. In addition, there are also games from other countries, such as Kazakhstan, Israel and South Korea.

To ensure enough variety, HPYBET offers you a whole range of bet types, including:

Three-way bet (1×2)
Double chance
Over/Under bet
Handicap bet
Overall winner bet
Half time score/finish
Exact result
Both teams score

Satisfactory selection of betting markets

According to my HPYBET experience, the number of betting options per match or event depends on the sport and the popularity of the teams or players:

For soccer, you have 200 to 300 betting options at your disposal.

For other mainstream disciplines, up to 100 betting markets are at the start.
In the area of fringe sports, only a few betting options are provided.
eSports & other special bets
Those who are interested in gaming are at the wrong address at HPYBET. At the moment, the bookie does not quote any eSports events. This also applies to special bets from the areas of politics and society as well as virtual bets.

Live bets

At HPYBET you can bet around the clock on games that have already started. The bookie presents you with a successful selection of live bets, whereby the betting provider focuses on mainstream disciplines. However, it should not go unmentioned that the portfolio is somewhat less broad than that of the top bookmakers.

I took a look at the live betting offer and at this point the following sports were available:

Soccer
Basketball
Tennis
Volleyball
Table tennis
Badminton
Ice hockey
Darts

However, this does not contribute to positive HPYBET experience: When the betting odds change, no graphical indication appears. This makes it difficult for you to quickly recognize changes in the odds.

On the other hand, the betting provider scores points in the HPYBET test with live broadcasts. You can watch the streams if you deposit at least one euro into your betting account. The bookie broadcasts soccer matches as well as tennis and basketball matches. Live streams are provided for the following events and leagues:

Soccer: Ligue 1 (France), La Liga (Spain), 1 Division (Norway), UEFA Champions League qualifiers.
Tennis: WTA 1000, WTA 500, WTA 250
Basketball: Australian National Basket League, Korean League
Even without a stream, HPYBET keeps you up to date, because usually there is also a match tracker available. This provides you with information in real time.

Odds

Odds

To find out how high the betting odds are at HPYBET, I calculated the odds level for ten betting markets. My sample focuses on soccer, as is the case with this bookie. However, it also includes betting options from other sports like tennis and basketball. The following overview illustrates which values I determined:

95,91 / 93,37 / 95,35 / 96,46 / 92,72 / 94,24 / 91,85 / 93,67 / 94,18 / 93,96
This means that the average odds are 94.17 percent – which is a good value. You can expect high odds especially for soccer.

This is how the odds are calculated

HPYBET offers the following odds for the Bundesliga match between Borussia Dortmund and 1. FC Köln:

odds BVB win: 1.5
Odds draw: 5,0
Odds win Cologne: 6,0
Odds = 1 / (1 / 1.5+ 1 / 5.0 + 1 / 6.0) = 0.9409 = 96.77 percent.

Betting features

In many cases, the cashout option is available to you. This allows you to close a bet even though the corresponding game is not over yet. When the bookie offers a cashout, however, is determined by the bookie itself. There is no auto or partial cashout at HPYBET.

I also could not find a bet configurator in the course of my research.

Deposits & Withdrawals

HPYBET offers you a wide payment portfolio. Besides classic options like bank transfer and e-wallets, it also includes prepaid payment cards. The minimum amount for deposits is always 10 euros. Regardless of the selected transaction method, there is always a limit of 1,000 euros. According to my HPYBET experience, the betting provider waives transaction fees completely.

You can deposit money into your betting account via:

Credit card (VISA and Mastercard)
Fast Bank Transfer (classic transfer from your current account)
paysafecard (prepaid payment method with 16-digit PIN)
Sofort (direct booking procedure via online banking)
giropay (e-wallet)
Skrill (e-wallet)
NETELLER (e-wallet)

For withdrawals, the so-called “Close Loop Policy” applies. This means that you have to use the payment method that you have used for the deposit before.

If this is not possible, the bookie will transfer the money to a confirmed bank account. According to the support, the minimum amount is 15 euros.

5% betting tax deduction at HPYBET

HPYBET passes on the betting tax due in Germany to its customers in full. The tax is deducted directly from the bet and displayed in the betting slip.

Before the first transaction the KYC test is due

You can only start betting at HPYBET after you have at least partially completed the KYC test. Usually it takes only a few hours until your documents have been checked. You can upload the required documents directly via your profile:

Before making your first deposit: Verify identity. For this purpose, it is necessary to take a screenshot of a valid identification document.
Before the first withdrawal: Confirm address. Acceptable documents for this purpose are bank statements or utility bills.
The verification of my documents ran via a simple upload in the player account and with a “live selfie” with the PC camera. After that, my data was verified immediately. That’s how it has to be!

My experience with the first deposit and withdrawal

I wanted to carry out the real money test first with the credit card or Skrill. However, both did not work technically. I always got an error message displayed. Of course, this does not necessarily have to be the case for you.

With the instant transfer it worked wonderfully. The 30 euros were immediately on the player account. I could have selected the bonus manually, but I did not in this test report.

My live bet was accepted after 8 seconds, which is an average fast value.

Following my bet, I should once again completely convert the deposit. Thus, HPYBET complies with the official anti-money laundering law and proceeds in an exemplary manner.

I succeeded in converting and my 28.11 euros were paid out again via bank transfer. After the usual three business days, the money was back with me on the checking account. Overall, you can expect very good and exemplary processes at HPYBET.

Reputation & Security

HPYBET is an officially licensed sports betting provider under the supervision of the Darmstadt Regional Council. This means that the bookmaker holds a license from Germany. Therefore, I rate the bookie as reputable.

The website is operated by Trinity Bet Operations Ltd – a Malta-based company that belongs to the Snaitech Group, which is a brand of Playtech.

What clouds the picture somewhat, however, is that numerous negative user reviews about HPYBET can be found on the Internet. Some of these are unjustified accusations. Sometimes the complaints also revolve around delayed or unauthorized payouts.

In terms of data protection, the betting provider meets the industry standards. Customer and transaction data are transmitted exclusively in encrypted form (via TSL 1.2 and with the help of a 256-bit key). Regarding player protection, the following options are available to you:

Deposit limit (daily, weekly, monthly)
Bet limit (daily, weekly, monthly)
Loss limit (daily, weekly, monthly)
Voluntary self-exclusion
24-hour self-exclusion

Service & Support

If questions arise or there is a problem, you can reach the support via live chat and e-mail. The bookie does not have a hotline. You will usually receive an answer within one to two minutes in the live chat. Regardless of the option you choose, you can be sure that the employees will always behave in a friendly manner.

The bookmaker’s customer service is open daily from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm. HPYBET offers its support in German and English. However, since I often had communication problems with the German support, I assume that they are not native speakers.

There is also a German FAQ menu on the website. However, I have to criticize two things: On the one hand, the FAQ does not turn out to be extensive. On the other hand, some of the questions do not refer to the website, but to the stationary betting shops.

Functions & Design

The betting provider relies on a minimalistic design. In my opinion, it looks a bit old-fashioned. Due to the comprehensible page structure, it should be easy for you to get started if you have no previous betting experience.

The website has many other features as well:

Website available in German language
Additional language options: English, French, Turkish and Italian
Classic structure with three columns: Left – sports/events | Center – betting offer | Right – betting slip

However, there are also two points of criticism:

The betting slip does not move when scrolling
The odds format (European) can not be changed

Other offers

No other gambling offers can be found online

At the moment, the gambling provider is limited entirely to sports betting.

However, it is worth mentioning: HPYBET does not only appear as an online bookie, but also operates about 200 betting shops in Germany and Austria.
