Lamabet was founded just a year ago in 2023 so obviously does not have a huge amount of history just yet. We can tell you though that the website is powered by the Softwiss platform, they are licensed and regulated by the Government of the Autonomous Island of Anjouan, (Union of Comoros), and at the time of writing, they offer bets on a massive 48 different sports. We will go into more detail in this article, bringing you all the information that you need to know before you decide on making this your bookmaker.
A brief summary of Lamabet is that it is a new bookmaker who offers a lot. They have a noticeably large range of bonuses for both new and existing players, and that is not all. They have a wide range of payment methods, including Crypto, the latest mobile apps, and 24/7 quick and efficient customer support.
The short answer is that yes, it is perfectly legal to play at Lamabet as long as you are over 18 years of age, a resident of Ireland, and you are using your own funds to gamble with.

When funding or making withdrawals from any gambling account there are almost always different limits, waiting times, and fees involved, depending on which payment method you use. At Lamabet the key information is:
*Lamabet state that “The funds will usually be received within one hour after processing the withdrawal request. How quickly you will receive the payment depends on the method that you have requested to withdraw funds. For the most part, the funds will be transferred instantly, processing the payments to credit cards by the bank takes from 5 to 7 banking days.
The minimum and maximum amount that can be bet at Lamabet will vary from sport to sport and also from bet to bet, with major leagues and events having a higher limit than minor ones. It will also be correlated to the odds, with larger bet limits applying to low odds outcomes compared to high odds results.
Lamabet has a remarkable number of sports to bet on, over 40 at the time of writing. Those sports are:
As you can see they cover the Irish sports Camogie, Gaelic Football, Hurling and Lacrosse which not every bookmaker does, and is very nice to see. Because these sports are seasonal they are not always available but when the sports are being played professionally there will be games to bet on.
Live betting is offered on the major sports including football, cricket, volleyball, boxing, tennis, etc. Although they claim to have live streaming for some sports when we were researching this review we did not see any evidence of this. Instead, there is a graphical representation of the game displayed, with live text updates of what is going on, along with key scores and statistics on the page. There are usually a decent range of markets to bet on not just including who will win the game but also the result of scores, totals, proposition bets, and bets on specific periods rather than the whole game. Unfortunately, Lamabet does not offer the ability to cash out bets under any circumstances.
Lamabet has a fully operational well stocked Casino, with a large amount of bonuses and rewards for new and existing players. There are the full range of games that you would expect a casino to have, as well as some interesting and uncommon ones, such as “Aviator”, “Crypto Games”, and “Bonus Buy” slots. The games they offer include:
Lamabet has a mobile app available for all types of device operating systems, be it Android or iOS. They actually encourage this and advise it as soon as you are registered. They claim that it has all of the features of accessing the site via a desktop computer but it can be easier to navigate and simpler to use. Whilst writing this review we found using the mobile version of the site (NOT the app) was possible but not particularly user-friendly. We would second the advice of Lamabet to install their app if possible.
If there is one weakness at Lamabet, it does have to be their odds. From our research we found that they were very rarely the best odds available on any selection and the overall margin for their betting markets was relatively high. Even quite high profile games for mainstream sports had an over round of above 5% and we even found as much as 10% sometimes.
The customer support at Lamabet is very good, and there are a few ways to get in touch. The best way is to use Livechat, which we found to be responsive, instantly answered by a real person rather than endless text prompts or AI answers, and the service staff knew what they were talking about and answered questions accurately and promptly. Unfortunately they do not have any phone support so the options for contacting Lamabet are:
Overall the site registration was quick and simple and the site itself was easy to use. Everything was well laid out, it was easy to find the sports or bets you are looking for, and transferring between sports and casino is also easy to do. What struck us most about Lamabet was the range of sports available for betting on, which included sports we had not seen covered before. The only thing missing is horse racing which is a shame, but there is literally everything else. The customer service was helpful and efficient, and the range of payment methods to use was wide. There is also a special mention to the casino side of things which similarly has a huge number of games to bet on, and they have a special game “Aviator” which we also have not seen before and is a lot of fun.
Lamabet has account functions available to you once you log in. It is possible to set limitations on how much you can deposit for specified time periods, as well as how much you can lose in a certain time period.
