Amex Sportsbooks Review
There is currently only one reputable sportsbook accepting American Express, Bodog.com. American Express is one of those cards where it’s basically impossible to find a sportsbook betting site that uses them, and the cards sometimes begin to get denied as time goes on so it’s best to deposit a fair amount at first if you’re a high stakes bettor.
American Express Sportsbooks:
Bodog.com – If you have trouble, call customer support but as of October 1, 2009 they are accepting American express sportsbook deposits. Amex gift cards however are not being accepted at Bodog.
Sign up Bonus:
The initial deposit bonus at Bodog is 10% with no maximum of what you deposit. So if you deposit $5,000 you instantly get $500 credited to your account.
Obviously, it is better to use your American Express card at Bodog instead of another popular payment method. Those online sports bettors that have been plagued with credit card rejections in the past will be happy to hear that Bodog offers a manual transaction to players that receive a rejection while trying to use their American Express card to fund their sports betting account. This manual transaction has an acceptance rate of over 90%, just use their live chat help if you have troubles.
Minimum Deposit
The minimum deposit amount allowed at Bodog is $20 when you use your American Express card. We are not aware of any max deposit amount. As you continue to deposit at Bodog, you can gradually increase your American Express limit, according to customer service.
