Open a Sbobet Account Through a Betting Broker
The short answer
You open a Sbobet account through a betting broker, and three brokers offer it: BetInAsia on BLACK, MadMarket on Edge and Sportmarket on its Betting Platform. Each one follows the same five steps. You register with the broker, fund its wallet, move money to the platform account, and find Sbobet in the bet slip beside the other bookmakers connected to it. This page shows which brokers list Sbobet, walks through the steps, compares what the three screens look like and says where we would start.
Can you bet on Sbobet?
Yes, through a broker. BetInAsia, MadMarket and Sportmarket each list Sbobet on their platform, so you place the bet from the broker's screen.
Sbobet is one of the Asian bookmakers, and its limits sit well above a high street bookmaker's. Our page on bookmaker restrictions and our no limit betting guide cover why that matters.
We would not keep a separate Sbobet login. One balance, one set of screens, and the price sits beside every other bookmaker's. Simple as that.
Which brokers give you Sbobet
BetInAsia, MadMarket and Sportmarket list it. The table shows the platform you use at each.

The map puts Sbobet beside three other Asian bookmakers on the same platforms. A filled square means the bookmaker is listed, and a hollow one means it is on request (that is Singbet at Sportmarket). We use the map as a quick check before we fund anything.

BLACK is BetInAsia's platform. Our page on Sbobet via BetInAsia shows the rest of what it reaches.
Edge is MadMarket's, and Sbobet via MadMarket does the same for that broker.
Sportmarket lists Sbobet on its own Betting Platform. Sbobet through Sportmarket has the full picture.
How to open a Sbobet account through a broker
Five moves, whichever broker you pick.
Register with the broker
Open the account on the broker's own site with your personal details.
Fund the wallet
Deposit into the broker's wallet by one of its payment methods. Sportmarket calls its wallet the Main Account.
Open the platform account
Create the BLACK or Edge account (Sportmarket creates the Betting Account for you) and transfer money to it from the wallet. This is the account you bet from.
Find Sbobet in the bet slip
Pick a market and look for Sbobet among the connected bookmakers. On Edge, Asian Handicap, 1x2 and Over/Under are listed.
Place the bet and withdraw
Stake from the platform, within the limits the slip shows. Withdrawals go back through the broker, not through Sbobet.
Two details differ.
Sportmarket registers you through Join Now, in a two-step form.
BetInAsia will not open a BLACK account until the wallet is funded (you then choose a username, password and currency).
MadMarket starts from Get Started, with your details, a confirmed email address and a password, and Create Account for Edge comes after the deposit.
What Sbobet looks like on each platform
BLACK lists it in a Bet-Slip that shows the odds and limits of every connected bookmaker and exchange. Asian Handicap is on its market list, and the slip also gives Maximum Order, Minimum Order, Expected Returns and Average Price before you stake.
Edge lists it with All Bookies, Best and Average, Classic vs Exchange and Price History on the same screen.
The Sportmarket Betting Platform lists it too. Trade view shows several events and markets at once, with prices from different bookmakers. It runs in the browser on desktop and mobile (there is no native app).
If the price is not there yet, set it and wait. Edge's Timeout places the bet at the minimum price you choose, and Sportmarket's Future Fulfilment does the same with a target price and stake.
On all three, Sbobet's price is one line among several, and that is the point: you compare it with the exchanges (our betting exchange overview explains back and lay) and take the best one, which our odds comparison guide shows how to spot.
Before you start
- Have an ID document and proof of address to hand. BetInAsia, MadMarket and Sportmarket can ask for both at any time (KYC at brokers explains when).
- Pick the payment method first. All three take crypto and cards; BetInAsia and Sportmarket also take Skrill, Neteller and bank transfer.
- You get one account per person at each broker.
- Set up two-factor authentication on the BetInAsia Portal (it is optional and recommended).
- BetInAsia and MadMarket write personal, non-commercial use into their terms.
Our pick for Sbobet
Sbobet is one door on the grid, and getting Betfair access opens another, this time an exchange.
Questions people ask
Why does the bet slip say SBO instead of Sbobet?
SBO, SBOBet and SBObet are three spellings of Sbobet. BLACK lists it under the name SBO, Edge writes SBOBet, and Sportmarket's bookmaker list reads SBObet, with an SBO logo on its presentation page. Look for whichever spelling your platform uses.
Do I need a separate Sbobet account?
At BetInAsia you bet from a single BLACK account, at MadMarket there is no need to open a separate SBOBet account because you reach it through Edge, and at Sportmarket the bets you place on the Betting Platform go into shared Bookmaker Accounts.
Will my bet always go to Sbobet?
No. On BLACK the software places your bet across the bookmakers that offer the best odds for your order, and on the Sportmarket platform one order can be split between several bookmakers. Edge combines liquidity from different Asian bookmakers in a single bet. Settings, then Bookies, switches each bookmaker on or off at BetInAsia and at Sportmarket, so you choose which ones can take your stake.
Is it legal to use Sbobet through a broker where I live?
That depends on the law of the country you live in. A broker cannot change it, so use one only where betting online is allowed for you. If betting online is not allowed where you live, a broker does not make it so.
Can I bet on other Asian bookmakers from the same account?
Yes. All three platforms list more Asian bookmakers beside Sbobet, and several exchanges as well. The map above shows three of the bookmakers, and our page on Asian bookmakers you can reach through brokers has the full grid.
