Our verdict

Pros and cons
Pros
- A FanCash match of 100% on the opening deposit, up to $1,000.
- Sports lines cover NFL, MLB and NBA, and cash out is available.
- Self-exclusion, deposit limits and a cool off are all listed in deposit limits, cool off and self exclusion.
Cons
- Support runs on chat and help centre, so there is no phone or email route for account problems.
- Licensing sits with CFTC and NFA (National Futures Association), which narrows the audience to US adults rather than European bettors.
- Identity checks are required, which puts document checks in front of the first bet.

Scored 9.3 / 10 by WagerCue.
Who it suits
- Adults in US states who want a FanCash deposit match with app-based betting.
- Bettors on the leagues in NFL, MLB and NBA who value cash out and their own deposit limits.
Who should look elsewhere
- Readers set on a Polish licence: totalbet is regulated by Minister Finansów RP (Ministry of Finance of Poland).
- Slovak bettors, who have a local option in Synot Tip SK under Urad pre regulaciu hazardnych hier (URHH).
Limits and self-exclusion
Responsible gambling tools run to deposit limits, cool off and self exclusion: deposit limits, a cool off and self-exclusion. All three apply to the account, and self-exclusion is the longest lasting of them. Identity verification is required, so checks come before the first bet rather than at the withdrawal stage.
Who licenses the operator
Licensing sits with CFTC and NFA (National Futures Association), so the operator answers to US regulators rather than a European authority, and the intended audience is adults in US states. Identity checks are required, meaning verification is part of joining rather than a later step. Readers who want a European licence would be better served by a locally regulated bookmaker.

Frequently asked questions
What welcome offer does PointsBet via Fanatics give new customers?+
New customers get a FanCash match of 100% on their opening deposit, capped at $1,000. The reward is paid in FanCash, and the offer is structured as welcome bonus. It applies in US states, so the audience is adult bettors in the US.
Which sports and bet types are covered?+
Coverage spans NFL, MLB and NBA. The operator runs as a bookmaker, so set lines rather than exchange liquidity define the market. Cash out is also available, which lets an open bet be settled before the event finishes.
Is there a mobile app for betting on the go?+
Yes, mobile app is the listed feature, so betting runs from a phone rather than a desktop browser alone. Sportsbook lines and the FanCash match work the same way in the app, and cash out is available there too. Support stays on chat and help centre whichever device is used.
How do I reach customer support?+
Support runs on chat and help centre, so live chat and a help centre are the routes. There is no phone or email line in that set, so time sensitive account questions go through chat. Account details help at first contact, because identity verification is required.
Who regulates PointsBet via Fanatics?+
The operator is licensed by CFTC and NFA (National Futures Association), both US regulators, so the audience is adults in US states rather than a European market. The legal entity behind the site is FBG Enterprises Opco, LLC. In Poland or Slovakia, a locally licensed bookmaker matches your regulator instead.
Which responsible gambling tools are offered?+
The account carries deposit limits, cool off and self exclusion, which lists deposit limits, a cool off and self-exclusion. Together they cover the money side, the pause and the full exit, so a break can be set before a losing run rather than after it. Identity checks are required and apply alongside those tools.
