Bets Offered
Overview - If you only bet on moneylines, spreads, and totals, theScore Bet is a sufficient offering. If you like exotic props and custom bets you should look elsewhere.
Disappointing number of bets Unfortunately, theScore Bet offers few bets outside of moneyline, total, and spread bets. For most NFL, MLB, and Soccer games, there are only five or fewer prop bets. Most sportsbooks offer upwards of 15-20 team and player props. For example, at other sportsbooks, you can bet over/under how many yards Tom Brady will throw for or how many total touchdowns will be thrown in an NFL game.
Cross-app bet tracking If you frequent theScore media app for live scores, play-by-play updates, and news, theScore Bet makes sense as a sports betting option. Bets you place in theScore Bet can be tracked in theScore media app. The teams you highlight as favorites in the media app will automatically be highlighted in theScore Bet app. Real-time scoring and live odds movements align with your live matchup experience between both apps, allowing you to track teams and bets easily.
Cash-out feature The cash-out feature allows you to amend your original bet. Cashing out early allows you to lock in a profit or loss by settling your bet (or a portion of your bet) early, without having to wait for the event to finish.

College football and basketball are available to bet on, as well as seven different soccer leagues. Golf, tennis, and MMA/UFC are not available to bet.

Live Betting
theScore Bet live betting is bland, which is unfortunate because it has the potential to be amazing. While there is a down and distance tracker and live clock (see image below), theScore Bet does not include play-by-play updates or stats. Users have to use theScore media app for that information, which is a missed opportunity for greatness. In terms of live bets, theScore Bet does not offer any instant bets or play-by-play bets, another missed opportunity.

Customer Service
theScore Bet offers 24/7 live chat, 24/7 phone support, and email responses within 24 hours. My experience with theScore Bet customer service was excellent. Agents responded promptly with detailed answers, providing me with more than what I asked for.
Mobile Betting
theScore Bet app is available for Android and iOS devices. There is not currently a desktop version available to bet on. The mobile app is good, but has the potential to be great. theScore Bet provides bettors with links to game details, stats, and betting info in its media app, theScore.
It would be nice if theScore was able to include some of this information in its betting app, so users don't have to switch back and forth. Regardless, theScore media app is only a click away and provides vital information such as injuries, matchup stats, and game information. The screenshots below are from theScore media app.Gallery
Reputation
theScore is a venture capital-backed media company that ventured into sports betting in 2019. theScore is a publically traded company listed on Toronto Stock Exchange https://tmxmatrix.com/company/SCR theScore stock is considered a penny stock, which means the company has an increased risk of going bankrupt. theScore has a sound reputation so far as a sportsbook, and I will update this section if any issues occur.
Other Notes
theScore Bet offers a few promotions, including a100%deposit match up to $100. The 100% deposit match is not as competive as DraftKings and SugarHouse, which offer a 100% deposit match up to $500.
- Bet a 4+ Leg Parlay of $20 or more, Get a $10 Free Bet This promotion offers bettors $10 for free as long as they place a 4+ leg parlay. The free $10 must bet bet within seven days of receiving it.

About theScore Bet
theScore Bet is the sportsbook, which uses the same branding and name as theScore media app. theScore media app is an app that provides sports fans with news on teams and players, fantasy information, standings, and scores and stats. In my personal experience, I've found theScore media app to be faster and superior to the ESPN app when checking the score of a close game. theScore media app had over 100M users in January 2019. theScore is VC-backed and has raised a total of $94.4M in funding over four rounds, according to Crunchbase.
