Sports Interaction Review

Sports Interaction, also known as SIA, was one of the first sportsbooks to be licenced and regulated in Canada. Established back in 1997, the site has become a pioneer for sports and is today one of the most established betting sites worldwide. We’ll be taking a look at Sports Interaction in detail and assessing all that it has to offer bettors. From its range of sports available, to its bonus offers – read on for our full Sports Interaction review for 2023.

Signing up to Sports Interaction is a hassle-free process. Simply follow the steps below to create an account:

• Select the green ‘Sign Up’ button on the home page
• Fill in the sign-up form and all required fields
• Complete your registration by selecting ‘Sign Up’

Once you’ve finished, you’ll receive a welcome email. This should give you an overview of your account as well as the welcome bonus that you’ll be eligible for, which we’ll be covering later in our review.

Sports Interaction is a slick and good-looking site, and the same goes for its app. Bettors will find that the Sports Interaction app is easy to use and quick for making bets – we found that you could have a wager ready to place in just four taps. In addition to this, the app has a huge number of sports and markets on offer just like on the desktop site.

For those not using the Sports Interaction app, the site is also available using a mobile browser. Bettors with an iOS, Android or Windows device should be able to easily access the site and start betting using the same account details and banking methods. Plus, mobile and app users will have access to all of the same promotions as on desktop.

When it comes to bonus offers, Sports Interaction doesn’t disappoint. The range of promotions tends to change on a regular basis, but one that stays consistent is the signup bonus. Any bettor that opens a new account will receive a 10% bonus match on first deposits up to C$100.

There are a few T&Cs that come with the offer to keep in mind. The bonus is only valid for 30 days and there’s a wagering requirement of three times the combined bonus and deposit amount. This being said, the rollover requirements can be used on any wager with odds of 1.5 or higher, which are relatively low minimum odds.

For the most recent offers and bonuses, it’s good to keep an eye on the promotions page. In the past, Sports Interaction has had an array of generous offers including a ‘Refer a Friend’ scheme – so it’s well worth keeping track of.

Sports Interaction has over 22 different sports to bet on with great odds on soccer, basketball, hockey, and more. Within this there are a good number of leagues and tournaments to choose from including NFL, NHL, NBA, and NCAA college football. Despite being a Canadian site, there’s also good coverage of international events – we were especially impressed to see hockey markets for domestic leagues in Austria and the Czech Republic.

Total number of sports available: 22

• Basketball

• Baseball

There’s also a great variety in markets and bet types. Within an active season, there can be thousands available to choose from – some NFL matches can have well over 60 individual bet types on offer. This includes everything from classic bets like simply picking the winner, to match specials not seen on other sportsbooks.

Live Betting

We were especially impressed with the live betting aspect of both the Sports Interaction app and mobile site. Bettors will find a comprehensive list of odds for all different sports and competitions, which quickly refresh as the events unfold in real-time. Typically, there can be up to 10 markets for each game with a range of bets that are are kept up to date.

Total number of markets available: 25,000 +

For a more established sportsbook, Sports Interaction has pretty generous odds. The sports betting site is surprisingly competitive and matches what can be found at most other betting sites. All in all, it’s refreshing to see a sizable sportsbook offer odds that are of real value to a customer.

In terms of additional extras, Sports Interactions has a fair amount to offer. We particularly liked a small feature called ‘email bet receipt’. This lets a customer email a hard copy of the wager to themselves – perfect for printing out and bringing to a game with you.

One of the strongest parts of the site is also the live streaming section. The interface is very easy to navigate, and the categories can be divided by sport, event or the upcoming schedule. The streaming quality is ultra-fast too, which is a real benefit for those wanting to try in-play betting. Beyond that, you can find event stats, data trends and advice on the SIA Insights blog.

Sports Interaction is a brand that can be trusted. The operator was the first to be licensed in Canada and is regulated by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission. The site has also received a license in Jersey and is supervised by the local gaming authority in the state. Beyond certification, the sports betting site has a strong security system that uses 128-bit encryption. This meets industry standards and helps keep sensitive data protected at all times.

Sports Interaction is targeted towards Canadian bettors, so the cashier features the most popular online payment methods in North America. These include InstaDebit, Visa, MasterCard, iDebit, eCheck, EcoPayz and Paysafecard. For all banking methods the minimum deposit is C$20.

Most of the same banking methods that are available for deposits can also be used to cash out the winnings. This being said, customers will only receive one free withdrawal per month for less common methods such as eChecks and Instadebit, after that, a processing fee of C$2 will apply. Furthermore, if any withdrawal is less than C$50 it will be subject to a C$10 processing fee too.

Requests are usually approved the next business day and the transfer is normally completed within three days after that. You can find out more in the tables below:

For support, the sports betting site has a dedicated help centre that is very nicely organized and contains plenty of FAQs. In addition to the self-help offering, users can also get assistance from a professional customer support team via live chat, email, and phone. The service is open 24/7 and live chat can be started with a single click after signing in.

Sports Interaction is a renowned online betting brand – and it shows. The site offers a huge range of sports and markets to bet on, with impressive live streaming and in-play betting functionality. Plus, the site and app are both sleek and easy to use, which adds to the online betting experience.

Our only criticism is that we would have liked to have seen more free bet promotions from Sports Interaction. The site offers a fair amount of casino promotions, but the sports side of things are lacking. This being said, the welcome package is a nice touch for new players and offers a 10% bonus on deposits of up to C$100. To conclude, we think Sports Interaction is a solid contender as one of the best betting sites for Canadians.
