The Mr.Pacho Welcome Bonus is quick and easy to take advantage of, simply deposit 100 Euros with a valid payment method (Not Neteller or Skrill), and then in your account section, activate the bonus before you have placed any bets. You are free to wager on any sport and for any amount you wish but to count for the wagering requirement, which is just 1x at odds greater than 1.5.
How to qualify for the Welcome Offer:
In their own words Mr.Pacho is an “innovative online sportsbook and casino”, who offers a wide range of betting markets, high odds, fast payouts, and provides you with responsive and qualified customer support agents. They are new to the market, having launched in 2023 but have already gained a reputation for quality. You can access their services via either desktop or by downloading their dedicated betting app from their website home page. They offer the standard pre-match betting odds on a wide range of sports, over 40 at the time of writing, and there is In-Play live betting available for all the main ones.
Mr.Pacho Bookmaker and Casino has a Curacao eGaming licence and is a CEG-Accredited operator. All and any disputes as to the terms or the use of the website shall be settled under Marshall Islands law. You can check whether or not a website has a valid and up to date licence by searching on the Curacao Egaming website. Mr.Pacho abides by international standards in customer acquisition, to be able to open an account, a player must be over 18 years old, a Swiss resident, and not be banned from gaming. Winnings from licenced operators are tax free but remember funds can only be transferred to accounts in the name of the player. Being relatively new it is perhaps not surprising that they have not been involved in any betting scandals nor is there any negative feedback to be found online, but it does also mean that they have not yet had time to win any industry awards either.
One thing that you will notice at Mr.Pacho is how well the site works, and how easy and intuitive it is to move around. Everything is slick and registering is a breeze. Once you have an account you will have no trouble finding the sports you want to bet on, and the promotions, support, and payments areas are all clearly labeled. The site always loaded straight away and the lack of hanging when placing bets was great to see.
As we already mentioned the usability of the Mr.Pacho site can not be faulted, and finding the sports and leagues you want to bet on quickly and easily is no problem. Should you have difficulty locating a specific team there is a search bar that you can use to find the matches they are involved in. The site can be displayed in a huge range of languages:
Supported languages at Mr.Pacho
It is not just the language that the site is displayed in which can be customised, you can also set the odds display to what you would like it to be, and the currency that you would like to wager in. In the unlikely event that you have any problems with the site you can notify Mr.Pacho via the Live chat facility 24/7 or Email them at: support@mrpacho.com and they will get back to you ASAP.
Mr.Pacho allows you to choose from a very wide range of payment methods including traditional banking methods, E-Wallets, and Crypto options. Limits are generally flexible, withdrawals are paid quickly, and there are no fees which is great! The minimum deposit amount can be as low as €10 and that is true of withdrawals as well. You can have three pending payments at any one time and these are processed within three working days but usually a lot quicker for most payment methods. Payment times are also influenced by your VIP level, the higher the level the quicker the payment is made.
Withdrawing funds is quick and easy, but remember you may at some point be asked to provide verification documents for KYC and AML purposes which may hold things up. It is possible to send such documents before they are even requested to save time later and this is something to consider doing. In order to withdraw funds follow these steps:
*Remember that you generally speaking can only withdraw to a method which you previously deposited with.
The data in the tables above is for accounts operated in Euros (which is the most common choice) but they offer a large range of local options, including Swiss Francs (CHF).
To open an account at Mr.Pacho initially no documentation is required to get you started, however, at some point basic proof of ID and residential location may be required, not necessarily because Mr.Pacho wants it but because they have certain duties in relation to their licence. In order to provide your data you can send scans of it to their Email address: support@mrpacho.com. The reasons why Mr.Pacho collects your data include:
Your data is handled with care and there are various levels of protection in place, a Data Protection Officer is employed to ensure that everything is kept in order and if you have any questions related to this area, you can contact them at: dpo@mrpacho.com
If you suspect that your account has become compromised then the first thing to do is change your password, this can be done from within your account settings area once logged in. Unfortunately, 2FA verification is not available at the moment, but if you are still worried about someone accessing and abusing your account it can be closed permanently by notifying the customer support team and requesting this in writing.
Mr.Pacho has a very, very, wide range of sports that they offer betting odds for. In fact we have thought long and hard and can not think of a sport which they do not cover. They have plenty of betting markets for each event too, not just the standard match odds and correct scores but player proposition bets, Asian Handicap markets, and long term outright markets as well. The really good news is no matter what sport you bet on, all are eligible to be used with the Mr.Pacho Welcome Bonus.
The full list at the time of writing is in the table below:
From these sports they have all the relevant Swiss leagues and tournaments well covered too, football in particular listing both the Super League, matches in the Challenge League, and the Swiss Cup. Every year you can also the Swiss teams that qualify for the UEFA Champions League qualifiers and the UEFA Europa Conference League qualifiers, and of course the UEFA Europa League which is entered by the winner of the Swiss Cup.
As you can see from the table above it is not just the main betting sports of football, tennis, and horse racing, that are available. They also have more niche events like ESports, Kabbadi, and Both types of Skiing. The “Specials” area contains current affairs, entertainment awards, and political markets too.
They offer pre-match bets on events starting both in the near future as well as those some months away, and not just pre-match on the majority of the main sports you can also bet In-Play. Unfortunately, live streaming is not available very often but they do have a graphical display representing the action of the game which helps you to visualise things, and there is a data feed providing not just the latest score but also all the key statistics that you will need to make informed bets as the game goes on. If you are ever inclined to close your bet early rather than letting it ride cashing out is an option for a large number of bets, both in play and also even pre-match.
It is simple to see the available odds and also to place the bets that you want. The odds are simply the numbers next to each option, and if decimal odds, for every €1 that you bet, you will receive back €1 x that number. To actually place a bet you click on that odds number to add them to the betslip. Should you wish to place accumulator bets then simply continuing to click on more odds adds those selections to the betslip too, and from there you can enter the stakes that you wish to place on those bets as either singles, doubles, trebles, etc, etc, right up to the full amount in one big accumulator.
Mr.Pacho has very competitive odds and fares well when compared to rival Swiss bookmakers, and that is just their regular odds, many events also have odds boosts on selected markets.
It is easy to know how much you will win after placing a winning bet at Mr.Pacho because on the bet slip before you submit, once you have entered the stake you will see the returns that you will be getting. There are maximum limits on the amount that you can bet and win but these vary depending on your VIP level, regardless of what level you are the limits are high and unlikely to be an issue.
The odds and margin that Mr.Pacho offers vary depending on a mixture of factors, the most prominent being how high profile the event is, and how close to the event start time we are. There is no guarantee that the following margins will apply to every match and/or be the same every week, but when we researched Mr.Pacho we found the margins on the following sports to be:
As a rule the vast majority of the time a bet will be settled and winnings placed into your account balance well within an hour of the event finishing, usually it is only a matter of minutes. Exceptions to this are when as we mentioned before a bet can be concluded early by using the cashout feature. The other case would be if a bet is voided, canceled, or the event postponed for any reason then stakes are refunded on all bets.
As we discussed at the start of this review the Sportsbook Welcome Offer is a 100% matched deposit bonus which is up to a value of €100. There are no “No Deposit” bonuses but the good news for Swiss players is that there is the option to set up an account in CHF, and if you do the maximum value of the deposit bonus is now up to 190 CHF which as you will know is considerably higher. To claim this bonus it is exactly the same, you must make a minimum deposit of 20 CHF, select that you want on the registration page or in the My Account profile area, then wager the bonus at least once with odds of 1.50 or above.
Mr.Pacho has a large range of promotional bonuses for existing customers but the majority are for play in the casino. There are however still some for sportsbook players that are generous and definitely offer great value.
Accumulator Boost of up to 100% – As you place more and more legs into your Acca (which can include bets from any sport) the % amount of the boost rises. The more you add, the greater the boost, up to a maximum 100% increase!
10% Cashback bonus up to €100 – As the name suggests should you have a bad run of luck and lose money over the course of the month, at the very start of the next month you will be eligible for a cashback bonus worth 10% of the losses, added to your account allowing you to try again.
Weekly reload bonus of 50% up to €500 – Not only does Mr.Pacho give you a bonus with your initial deposit, but every week when you redeposit you can claim 50% reload bonuses worth up to €500 a week.
Mr Pacho Casino VIP / Loyalty Program – Every new customer starts at Level 1 which is “Fan” and the more that you use the site the more you will see your level and associated perks rise. There are five different VIP levels to unlock and the specific details of what you receive for being in each one can be seen in your account profile section once you log in.
Generally speaking, the wagering requirements for Mr. Pacho’s sports bonuses is just 1x at odds greater than 1.5. There is no restriction on what sports can be used and you can use pre-match or In-play bets. The time limit in which to complete the bonus wagering is that the bets must settle 10 days from the bonus being credited, failure to meet this deadline will see the bonus and any potential winnings being voided. You can not withdraw bonus funds immediately after they are credited nor can bonus funds be used to claim any other bonuses.
There is a mobile app available to download directly from the homepage of the site. You can log into it using your existing Mr.Pacho account details, or if you do not have one yet create a new account from within the App itself. There is also the option to simply use the mobile optimised version of the site from your desktop browser. There are no specific bonuses or perks to using the mobile app, the odds are the same and all the available features are the same. But if you are out and about and want to place a bet it is recommended to use this method, it is simple to navigate and information on the screen has been prioritised to what you need to know.
In-play betting at Mr.Pacho is well supported but there is only sporadic live streaming of the events themselves. Instead there are usually small graphical representations of what is happening, along with a description of each and every stage of play, which enables you to get a good feel for what is happening. There are not quite as many sports supported in-play as there are pre-match but the major ones are all there. At the time of writing the sports that you could bet on in-play were:
This list will increase depending on what sports are being played at any given time.
When In-play betting the odds update frequently and there is a handy colour coded flash on the new odds so you can easily track if they are coming out or going in. Despite updating frequently suspensions are rare and usually, once your bet is submitted, it is accepted.
The best way to contact Mr. Pacho’s customer support is via live chat, and this can be done when you are logged in. The help is there 24/7 and in multiple languages but a bit annoyingly it begins by being an AI bot and takes quite some time to actually get through to a human being if that is what you need. The other option is to Email them, and they endeavor to reply within 24 hours to all general queries. There is no phone support unfortunately but the availability of live chat 24/7 does make up for this.
They have an interesting dispute resolution process, suggesting players initially lodge a complaint at the AskGamblers website, where each party has 96 hours to respond to the issues raised by each other. Failing that you can also file a complaint with their licensing body, the CEG (Curacao Egaming Board) HERE.
Mr.Pacho supports responsible gambling and has advice on how to follow best practice rules on their site. These rules include:
You can not set a deposit limit on your account nor can set a limit to the amount of time you are logged in for without a warning, but if you wish to self exclude yourself from the site you can Email them and your account will be closed within 24 hours.
On their website they recommend organisations who can help you if you think that your gambling is becoming (or if it definitely is) a problem. The places they recommend you consult are:
Generally speaking Mr.Pacho has good reviews online, and very few negative cases, but some of that may stem from their relatively new status. They have not won any industry awards at the time of writing but players seem happy with their payout times, there are no common technical issues, and they compare well with rival Swiss bookmakers. They are not active on the main social media channels but do interact on gambling related player support forums offering quick responses to any issues raised.
If you come across any issues that you would like to make them aware of or want to notify them of any problems, this can best be done by Emailing: support@mrpacho.com
Mr.Pacho does not operate a refer-a-friend scheme at the moment but if you own a website or have an online presence with the ability to drive traffic and depositing customers their way, then they do have an affiliate scheme that you can apply to.
The Mr.Pacho affiliate scheme is part of the Boomerang Partners Program.
They have a wide range of earnings models including CPA, Rev Share, Hybrid, and Prepay. Each deal is negotiated on a case by case basis. The requirement to be accepted as a partner is the ability to drive traffic to their brands. Traffic is accepted from over 30 GEOs including Switzerland, once accepted there are 100 offers to choose from, and you get a personal account manager.
When all is said and done Mr.Pacho is one of the better Swiss bookmakers out there. They have an excellent little Welcome bonus, and some very generous offers for reloading existing customers, as well as an ongoing VIP loyalty scheme to reward their most active customers. The odds are remarkably good, especially on the main football markets, and they cover a huge amount of sports meaning that if you want to place a bet, then chances are you will be able to do it here! Mr.Pacho is definitely a betting site to have an account with.
