AK Bets — from the racecourse rails to your phone

AK Bets started as a pitch on the rails, not as an app. Anthony Kaminskas, an ex-Paddy Power trader, stood at UK racecourses from 2021, lost money on the first day and took more than 70,000 bets in the first year. The website followed in March 2023.

AK Bets Limited, account 65961, is the on-course business. Two review sites quote that number for the casino; it carries no casino licence. Complaints go to AK Bets first and then to IBAS.

Horse racing and greyhounds at AK Bets

Every UK and Irish meeting is priced at AK Bets. US racing is covered. Greyhounds have a full-time odds compiler, which few firms keep. Live streams of UK, Irish and US racing and greyhounds play once a customer is logged in; no bet is required.

Racing specifics:

  • Best Odds Guaranteed: not offered
  • Forecasts, tricasts, Lucky 15s and ante-post: available
  • Maximum payout per customer per day: £100,000 on UK and Irish racing and the Breeders' Cup, £25,000 on international racing and on greyhounds
  • Phone-a-Bet: telephone betting from £20

Two of the five daily Clubs belong to this crowd. Stake £50 or more in a day on US racing, or on the dogs, and a guaranteed free bet arrives the next day.

Football odds from the top flight to non-league

AK's Big Prices puts market-leading odds on selected events every day. One review ranked AK Bets first for Premier League odds. The average football margin is about 6.85 %.

AK Bets coverage runs through the EFL, the National League and the Scottish divisions, then the Champions League, Europa League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1. Build-a-Bet, accumulators, full and partial cash out and in-play markets are in. Niche leagues are thin. Esports markets are absent.

Football tierMax payout per day
Top-tier match winner£100,000
Second tier£50,000
Third tier£25,000
Everything else£10,000

On a multiple that crosses markets, the lowest cap applies.

The £100 acca boost explained with numbers

New UK and Irish customers receive 25 % extra on the winnings of their first bet, paid as a free bet worth up to £100. The bet must be an accumulator of at least three selections, each at Evens (2.0) or longer, any sport. Reviews quote promo code AKACCA100.

AK Bets credits the free bet within 24 hours of settlement, lasts seven days and can go on any price. Its stake is not returned with winnings. There is no casino welcome bonus at AK Bets; the sign-up deal is a sports offer.

AK'S BIG REWARDS: five daily Clubs

No tiers, no points, no account manager. AK Bets runs five daily Clubs:

AK Bets Big Rewards page with the Casino Club and US Racing Club offers
  1. Casino Club, slots or live casino
  2. In-Play Multis Club, in-play accumulators
  3. Virtuals Club, virtual sports
  4. US Racing Club, American racing
  5. Kennel Club, greyhounds

One rule for each: wager £50 or more in that category between 00:01 and 23:59, and a guaranteed reward lands the next day. In-Play Multis free bets are in the account by noon. The Casino Club pays at least ten free spins at 10p. One OLBG user reported £75 in free bets in a little over two weeks.

Casino section behind the AK Bets sportsbook

Small next to the sportsbook, larger than most expect: the AK Bets casino is a section, not a separate site. Reviews put the library at 1,000+ games; a count on 7 October 2026 reached 2,191, with 1,950 slots and 138 live tables.

Apple Pay shows up in one review. PayPal, Skrill and Neteller are not accepted. No fees apply in either direction.

Withdrawals go back the way the money came in, once documents are approved. Published timings run from same day to two to five working days; two reviewers who tested debit card withdrawals received the money in six and seven minutes. No fixed daily withdrawal cap is set. Amounts above £20,000 may need extra arrangements with AK Bets.

AK Bets on iOS, Android and the mobile site

AK Bets apps exist for both platforms, with live streaming, in-play, biometric login and push notifications. Store ratings are low: 3.1 on the App Store from 18 ratings, 1.6 on Google Play from 11. The mobile browser version mirrors the app: search, account and bets along the top, the main menu at the bottom.

Trader Chat, email and safer gambling tools

The live chat is called Trader Chat and puts customers through to trading staff, useful for a price on a market that is not listed. Most reviews describe it as 24/7 with replies inside a couple of minutes; email answers arrive within a day. No general phone helpline exists apart from Phone-a-Bet for placing bets.

Limits are set at sign-up: step three of registration asks for a deposit limit and a reality check. Loss limits, session limits, time-outs, self-exclusion and GAMSTOP are in the account afterwards. AK Bets may request further ID after larger deposits or a quick rise in stakes.
