Software

Paddy Power have rolled their products out on the mobile platform as well as being available via app.

Interestingly not all of it’s products are available in this format though for example on Apple devices you can download Sports, Casino, Live Casino and Bingo but not Poker whilst on Android you can download Sports, Bingo and Live Casino but not regular casino or poker.

Given the size of the company this is somewhat of a surprise although you can bet via phone or text.

Sports

Being one of the bigger betting companies, Paddy Power’s sports book is everything you would expect and more!

Whilst they have your usual markets, Paddy Power really shine in the novelty and specials. With markets on transfers, managerial sackings and a whole host of unorthodox bets, Paddy Power adds some fun to betting.

With an excellent in play betting service as well as live streaming of a number of events, Paddy Power’s sports betting impresses!

Casino

With over 200 casino games, you would think that things could get quite messy with Paddy Power? Not the case. Instead the website is neat and easy to navigate with games separated into 4 categories: table games, video poker, slot games, and leisure games.

The Marvel branded games are particularly enjoyable, with the Ghost Rider slots game a lot more enjoyable than the terrible Nicholas Cage films!

Paddy Power’s casino entertains constantly and offers the chance for ‘megajackpots’ that could see you winning big!

Poker

Paddy Power’s poker cash games offer a fair amount of variety with limit and no limit Texas hold ‘em, Omaha and Omaha Hi-Lo, and 7 card stud.

Try your hand at speed poker which allows you to change tables every time you fold as well as Twister poker which can turn small buy ins to huge cash jackpots.

A lot of the tables have a 6 player maximum but you can play a massive 16 games at any one time too!

Be sure to enter one of Paddy Power’s Sunday tournaments with varying buy ins that impact on the jackpot or if you’re a newbie visit the Poker School that teaches the in and outs of the game.

Bingo

As expected, Paddy Power offer an excellent range of games to suit all needs when it comes to bingo.

The network games can be busy, but Paddy Power have their own run rooms that can be a tad quieter.

With 90, 80 and 75 ball games as well as Deal or No Deal Bingo and Who Wants to be a Millionaire Bingo, expect to be entertained!

With big jackpots and great promotions that are updated weekly, Paddy Power’s offer some of the best bingo around.

Bonuses & Promotions

Paddy Power strengths lie in their bonuses and promotions and one impressive feature is their ‘justice payout’ of which they are champions. Paying out on bets that punters would have unfairly lost ie if you bet on a fight and the judges clearly rob one of the fighters, Paddy Power will pay on the fighter that should have won.

Paddy Power know how to keep customers happy with their money back specials and accumulator insurance, giving back to customers in the form of free bets, meaning with them you never really lose!

Of course there is the 100% match deposit up to £300 for the sports book too whilst in the casino you can get this same offer but with a free £5 no deposit to play with!

Betting Options

Whilst a number of companies have impressive sports books, it’s fair to say that Paddy Power’s love for novelty bets sets them apart from the rest.

Paddy Power aren’t afraid to have a laugh, this shows in their social media practices, and in their bets. With odds on the managerial sack race, transfers, as well as even more unorthodox things like the name of one Direction’s Louis Tomlinson’s first baby, you can pretty much bet on ANYTHING with Paddy Power.

Customer Support

Paddy Power are available 24/7 via live chat which they claim is the best option for resolving any issues. You can also drop them a line via email or give them a call at any time via their dedicated phone line.

Deposit/Withdrawal

As with most companies you can deposit via credit and debit card, e-wallets like Paypal as well as bank transfer and cheque.

You can also use a Paddy Power cash card, topping up in any of Paddy Power’s UK & Ireland stores and this also allows you to pick up your earnings in store too.

Withdrawal methods are the same as depositing methods although the times differ, for example you can expect your winnings in hours via Paypal but days with a credit or debit card.
