Background
Expekt were founded in 1999 by Christian Haupt and Conny Gesar and are one of the bookmakers owned by the Mangas Group. The first two languages available at their website were English and Swedish and it's in the Scandinavian region where this operator have always traditionally been strong, with a solid customer base established in Denmark and Norway. However, the past few years have seen them grow their customer base in central Europe.
Expekt were originally based in London, although in 2000, they made the switch to Malta, where they are licensed and where their headquarters are based. They now claim to have over 1.5 million customers worldwide, many of whom enjoy other products such as online casino and poker. It's worth noting that their plans for world domination are supported by the fact that they support languages such as Czech, Croatian, Hungarian, Greek, Turkish, Russian, Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Thai and Indonesian.
Odds and Markets
Expekt’s odds are probably the most outstanding aspect of their service, something which makes amends for their lack of new customer bonus. They're fully aware of their need to be competitive when it comes to price-sensitive regions such as Scandinavia and you'll therefore have plenty of joy on the Premier League and Serie A, both of which are popular in Sweden. It's also worth checking out their Asian Handicap odds which are bet to tight margins and one of the best services in the industry.
Markets-wise, they are very upfront about how many are being offered and are particularly strong on football, ice hockey and tennis. Indeed, as far as the former is concerned, a wide variety of European leagues are covered. There are over 20 sports covered by Expekt and, while UK and Irish horse racing does not feature, there are a wide range of football leagues that are covered. Tennis is also a sport where they seem to have a strong trading resource with more pre-match markets than average.
Website
The website is available in no less than 23 languages and the homepage is quite neat, with Expekt listing their available sporting markets down a centre column rather than the traditional left-hand menu. Nevertheless, they should be applauded for listing the markets available at any given time, rather than allow their customers to delve around searching for something that isn't there. They also have some great thumbnail features to promote the big sporting events on the horizon. It's also a nice touch to see a search box included for customers to search for a particular player or event.
Navigation around the website is an unusual experience. Once you have selected your sport and sub-category, you are whisked to that particular pocket of the sportsbook and Expekt also provide a step-by-step guide as to how one places a bet. Their Live Betting section is separate from the rest of the sportsbook and it’s a reasonable offering which features a handful of In-Play markets for each nominated event.
Customer Service
Expekt offer support in over 20 languages and their working hours are Monday to Sunday, 08:00 to 24:00. There is a live chat and email facility but no telephone support. However, they do respond quickly to email queries and the live chat operators are friendly and helpful.
