World Sports Exchange is entrenched in online betting history as one of the first companies to accept wagers on the web and it has built a reputation as a friendly environment for sharp bettors.

With some of the highest maximum limits on wagers available and a veteran’s perspective on the market, it makes sense that WSEX sits among the best in our top 20 list.

History

WSEX opened shop in the summer of 1996 and was officially licensed the following year in Antigua and Barbuda. Its creators left the Pacific Stock Exchange to start the new book.

The management team’s understanding of the stock market led the company to be the first online book to offer sports betting in a share trading form.

WSEX has been cited in some of the biggest media outlets such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, 60 Minutes and Sports Illustrated.

Betting Options

This is a book geared toward sharp bettors. Once on the site, you’ll find large limits (as high as $20,000 on some events) and direct paths to the betting screens.

You can find all the North American sports here including a few lesser followed leagues like the CFL, soccer, tennis, golf, boxing/MMA and horse and auto racing.

WSEX was the first to introduce live betting to online customers and its users love the low juice (-104) offered on this specialty. Bettors are able to trade their team or player (game prop) throughout the contest with odds being updated accordingly.

Buying points is a straightforward process with 10 cents of additional juice applied for every half point.  

This isn’t the book where you’re going to find all sorts of promotions or bonuses. Because of its well established reputation, WSEX attracts the majority of its clientele through word of mouth. The book is best suited for a bettor familiar with the online wagering landscape and is looking for value.

Payments

This is one area that some users have had some complaints in recently. While the payments always come through, some members grumble that the delivery is not as swift as it should be.

WSEX has told its users the reason for the slower payment has to do with a problem with its processor. The book’s track record tells you that your money is safe with these guys and the payment process appears to be returning to its usual speedy fashion.

There are multiple measures to deposit and withdraw money from your account with the book. The most common routes are credit cards (Visa and MasterCard), bank wire, Neteller and InstaDebit.

Reliability

There’s a reason WSEX has been able to stand at the peak of the online sports betting trade for over 10 years. Even customers that have had to wait out a payment defend the book’s credibility.

That’s because they know they get paid and if there is an issue they get a response quickly. The customer service team can be reached 24/7 via email and you can catch them on live chat or on the phone from 8 a.m. ET until halftime of the last game on the board.

Overall

The majority of bettors will love WSEX’s no-nonsense approach. The higher limits, fast paths to buying points and unique methods - like live in-game and market wagering - are all strong reasons to consider making this industry giant your bookie. Top | Back To Top Sportsbooks »
