BookMaker.eu
BookMaker.eu is one of the oldest offshore sportsbooks taking bets from Americans. It holds no US state licence. Facts and risks.
Offshore; not licensed in any US state
This brand is not licensed in the markets we cover (or only in part of them), so it has no Wayfinder Score. If you play there, you do not get the protections a local licence brings: limits, self-exclusion and a regulator to complain to.

What it is
BookMaker.eu has taken bets from American customers for decades and is known among experienced bettors for posting lines early and accepting large stakes. Despite the .eu ending, it holds no licence from any European Union country.
The word bookmaker is also an ordinary noun, which accounts for part of the search interest.
Licence status
BookMaker.eu holds no licence from any US state and none in the markets we cover (US, UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Ontario). Several state regulators have sent offshore books cease-and-desist letters since 2024.
A foreign licence gives a US customer no route to a state regulator.
What to know
With an offshore book there is no regulator to complain to and no guarantee that customer funds are kept apart from company money. Most US states now have licensed sportsbooks, and those are the ones we review.
