PBRPlaybetr is a government currency casino that allows crypto deposits and withdrawals. It uses its own in-house token (PBR) – a stablecoin tied to the value of USD. Deposits can be made with a number of cryptocurrencies, as outlined below, and will be automatically converted to PBR. Withdrawals can be made as normal using any of the available cryptocurrencies. We’d much rather use an end-to-end crypto casino, which is why we’ve given Playbetr a low score.
Playbetr is a mid-tier casino which is good across the board without being outstanding. They have an almost identical site layout to their partner Betcoin. And like Betcoin they also have a just okay sportsbook.
Slots
Range: Huge – over 1000 available from a wide range of providers.
The slots on offer are pretty standard. They play well on desktop and mobile, but your balance in the top right corner doesn’t update with each spin.
There is little information on each game on display before you click through. Other crypto casinos clearly label games with min/max bets and other useful details.
Live dealer
Range: A wide range provided by Ezugi, Evolution Games, Netent, Asia Gaming, eBET and Betgames.
Again, Playbetr provides a usable live dealer offering.
There’s an option to go full screen which works on desktop but not mobile, other than that the games function well. However, we did get the odd server error when trying to enter a lobby.
Table games
Range: You can play blackjack, baccarat, roulette, craps and table poker.
Table games are easy to navigate thanks to a dropdown menu allowing you to select the type of game you want. They are slow at times, but fun to play.
Transactions
Unique deposit addresses: Available.
Confirmations before play: 1.
Withdrawal time: Four hours.
Player-to-player transfer: Available.
Playbetr uses its own in-house token (PBR) – a stablecoin tied to the value of USD.
Deposits and withdrawals can be made with the following cryptocurrencies; BTC, ETH, LTC, BCH, XRP, BSV, DASH, XMR, PAX, PBR, TUSD or USDT. This will be automatically converted into PBR.
Withdrawals require email confirmation for security.
Customer service
Customer service channels available: Live chat, emails and support tickets.
Speed of replies: Live chat responds within half an hour. We got no response to our email.

Overall
Playbetr Sportsbook is a government currency sportsbook that allows crypto deposits and withdrawals. End-to-end crypto sportsbooks are always our preference, hence the low overall score.
Their casino is pretty average. The live dealers, table games and slots all work, but could be better. Playbetr does the job and can provide a fun experience, but there are better options available for crypto gamblers.
