Royal Panda

Royal Panda launched as an online casino in 2014. They’ve since expanded their operation to include a sportsbook. Despite their relative youth, this bookmaker already excels in a few areas.

Their live betting section stands out thanks to its numerous lines, various features, and helpful stats. You can stack multiple matches in a single window to better keep track of the fast-paced action.

This sportsbook mainly focuses on football lines and in-play betting. You’ll be more than satisfied with Royal Panda if you love football and live wagering. They also do a good job of covering a few other markets, like basketball, cricket, rugby, and tennis.

The banking options and deposit/withdrawal limits are very good here. You can deposit as little as $10 or as much as $15k. Cashout limits range from $10 to $100k.

Royal Panda rates good or above average in most areas. However, their customer support hours and website layout leave much to be desired. The latter is especially annoying until you get used to manoeuvring around this site.

Extras & Features

Royal Panda offers a fair number of features that are helpful when placing bets. “Event View” provides you an opportunity to see updates and stats on a given match. “Live Multiview” lets you add multiple matches for viewing in a middle window. This site also offers results on a wide range of sports and leagues.

Odds

Royal Panda is one of the industry’s newer bookmakers. It’s therefore no surprise that their overall odds aren’t quite as good as the larger sportsbooks. However, they do stand out in certain areas, including football and Asian handicapping odds. It’s very possible that their odds in other markets could get better as they grow.

In-play / Live Betting

Royal Panda’s website layout makes it obvious that live betting is their main focus. Most of their features and sections are dedicated to serving live punters. They offer a wide variety of in-play wagering opportunities across lots of markets. As mentioned before, you can use the “Live Multiview” to monitor several matches at once.

Sports Markets & Betting Types

Royal Panda puts the bulk of their focus on football. You’ll find numerous lines on matches taking place across the world. They do a decent job of covering other popular markets too, including basketball, cricket, ice hockey, rugby, and tennis.

Common bet types found here include moneylines, accumulators, totals, and live betting. You can switch the odds view to American, decimal, fractional, or Asian. This feature is really helpful if you’re experienced with a specific type of odds.

Website Navigation & Layout

The mobile version features a non-traditional look that requires you to scroll sideways for available sports. We much prefer the available markets being listed vertically on the left-hand side. The desktop version shows tiny sports icons on the left side that must be selected to reveal matches/lines.

We’re not big fans of either the mobile or desktop layout. However, the different live betting views and odds options (decimal, fractional, etc) do offer some convenience. The only problem is that you’ll need some time to get used to these options and the overall layout.
