Head-to-head
1xBet vs bet365
1xBet and bet365 operate in the same verticals (casino, sportsbook, poker, bingo), so most of what follows is a like-for-like comparison.
Everything below is taken from each operator's published record — licence registers, banking pages, bonus terms and responsible-gambling pages. We do not open accounts or play, so nothing here is a claim about hands-on experience.
Links to operators on this page are affiliate links: we earn a commission if you sign up through one, at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing about the facts shown here. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

What stands out on each
1xBet
Pros
- The licence is verifiable at source: the Curaçao Gaming Authority's certificate portal lists licence OGL/2024/1262/0493, licensee Caecus N.V. (company 163779), status Active
- The widest product range in this comparison: sports, live betting, slots, live casino, esports, poker, bingo, Toto, TV games and virtual sports under one account
- Country-specific sites for eleven markets, each with local payment rails and language
- Operating since 2007 by the company's own account — a long history at this licence tier
Cons
- A Curaçao licence offers thinner player protection and thinner recourse than a UK or Malta permit
- Terms, bonuses and banking are set per country site rather than globally, so no single set of conditions applies to everybody
- The operator publishes its rules pages client-side, so its restricted-country list, age minimum and protection tools could not be read from here at all
- Terms, bonuses and banking are set per country site, so nothing here is a single global figure
