Mobile App
Betfred Android App
First things first. How do we download the Betfred app for Android to our mobile device? When it comes to the Betfred mobile Android app; Samsung, HTC, Sony Ericsson and Motorola devices will all act as a platform, provided they are utilizing an operating system of 4.30 or above. Simply follow the steps below to transport the world of Betfred online betting into the palm of your hand. The process is as simple as for most other Android betting apps
- Register for a new account at Betfred by visiting Betfred’s site.
- Search “Betfred” in the Google Play store.
- Select “Install”.
- Once installed, open the app and Betfred for Android is all yours.
The Betfred app is extremely well designed. Upon opening the app, you will be immediately greeted by the most popular betting events right at the top of the page. Whilst should you be looking for something in particular, a link to the a-z of sporting options is conveniently located at the foot of the home page.
Simplicity and ease of use seem to have been two of the main criteria in the design of the Betfred app, with handy links to in-play betting and the “Next Events Off” being ideal tools for those looking to get to their bet quickly when time may be of the essence.

A small thing maybe, but it’s a handy option to have particularly when attempting to place a bet whilst on the move.

Betfred App Features
Betfred mobile betting app is packed with features, such as in-play betting, real time stats and visualisations, and live streaming of all UK and Irish race meetings (including greyhounds), as well as live coverage of basketball, tennis and a host of other events.
Quickbet
The Betfred mobile app also includes Quickbet, meaning there are fewer steps needed to place a wager (ideal for when you’re betting on your mobile when you’re on the move), and navigation around the both, Betfred Android app and the one for iPhones and iPads, is straightforward and intuitive.
Cash Out
In addition, Cash Out is available on selected races (including both single and each-way multiples), football, golf and tennis markets. Betfred cash out feature gives you the chance to take your winnings early if the final leg of a multi bet or acca looks like letting you down.
Live Streaming
Part of the thrill of placing a bet is of course the ability to watch your selection in action. Punters at Betfred are certainly well catered for in this regard, with live streaming of football, tennis, basketball, horseracing, greyhounds and more all available. To acces a live streaming on Betfred, simply place a bet of £1 or more on the event.
For us this is one of the areas where the Betfred App really comes in to its own. You simply can’t beat the convenience of being able to see exactly how your bet unfolds on your mobile device, wherever you happen to be.
In-Play Betting
The Betfred app comes with a dedicated in-play betting section, perfect for those who enjoy wagering on sports events that have already started. Sports including football, tennis, basketball and golf feature heavily on a daily basis, with the bookmaker updating odds on a regular basis in accordance with what is taking place out on the field, court or course. When it comes to live betting, it is not just the event winner in which Betfred app users can stake on, with the majority of markets coming with a significant amount of other options.
Accumulator Insurance
Accumulator bets are hugely popular today, due to their excitement and potential rewards. However, with most punters having experienced the frustration of seeing a potentially lucrative acca ultimately being unsuccessful due to just a single selection letting you down, the “Acca Insurance” promotion from Betfred has the answer. Available on all football bets with 5+ picks, punters will receive their stake back, up to a maximum of £10, in the event of just one selection missing out.
Pick Your Punt
The Betfred Pick Your Punt feature acts as something of a request a bet option for punters, allowing them to stake funds on markets that would not otherwise be available. Users must send a tweet to Betfred on Twitter using the hashtag #PickYourPunt, which should include the bet in which they wish to place. While football is the main area of focus, other sports can also be taken into consideration when it comes to this feature, while punters can also browse through the bets that have already been successfully requested by other users.
