SPORTS BETTING SECTION AND ODDS
The sports betting section of 1win features a wide rage of sports disciplines available for betting. There are over 35 different sports to choose from. With a special emphasis on catering to the Indian audience, 1win has an impressive level of cricket coverage.
In order to give you a better understanding of what you can expect here, let’s take a look at an upcoming cricket game between the Rangpur Riders and Fortune Barishal.
This game in its pre-game phase has over 50 different bet types available. This is roughly the average number of open markets for a cricket game. Of course, higher tier tournaments will have more. Most cricket game will usually have a decent variety of team-specific wagers as well as various over/under betting lines.
LIVE BETTING
Mostly all the same sports, tournaments and games that you could have seen in the pre-game section will also be available in the live section. When it comes to cricket, there are more live markets than there are pre-match ones. This isn’t the case for most other sports.
Between 30 and 60 markets will be concurrently available throughout the game’s duration. Betting is usually open until the very last minutes of any game, Cashout is also available.
LIVE VIDEO STREAMS
One thing that we also wanted to tell you about is 1win’s live streaming feature. You will see that a significant number of live games are accompanied by real-time video feeds. You can spot such games by a TV-like icon displayed on the overview section of the game in question.
If you are accessing 1win on your mobile device, the live streaming player is positioned at the top of the page, just below the game’s scoreboard.

Access to live streams is open to all registered users, with no requirement to have an active balance on your account.

1WIN MOBILE
1win has made sure that their platform is optimized for mobile devices, without sacrificing user experience. Additionally, you can download and install a mobile app, which largely mirrors the functionality of their mobile website.
We did several test runs of their website using four different smartphones: an iPhone 8, an iPhone 14, Samsung Galaxy S10 and Google Pixel 8. We intentionally used two somewhat outdated devices, as we understand that not everyone has access to all the latest models.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
1win’s mobile website is well-optimized, ensuring short loading times and a smooth user experience across most modern mobile devices. Users with older or less advanced devices can still access most features and sections of the website without significant issues. However, due to animated imagery on the interface, these devices may experience longer loading times. Some elements might also not load correctly.
Nevertheless, it’s worth noting that while on your first visit you might see longer loading times to download some UI elements, these will be cached for future use. This caching logic ensures that on subsequent visits page loading times will be shorter as static UI elements won’t have to be re-downloaded. This minimizes both loading times and data consumption.
USER INTERFACE
Now, let’s look at the user interface to better understand how it works and what you can do with it.
Main Navigation Menus:
- The website’s header is essentially a horizontal navigation bar at the top that has links to several key sections of the website. Though not all are included here.
- Clicking the three horizontal lines in the top right corner opens up a vertical navigation menu on the right, listing all sections of 1win.
Sports Betting Section:
- When you open the sports betting section of 1win, you can either start by browsing through all available leagues and countries or you can open the full list of available games.
- In the leagues and countries view, the interface displays the exact count of games open for betting.
- The games list page shows popular and upcoming games, however lacks details on the number of open markets per game.
Betslip Section:
- The betslip section is where all betting happens.
- It adapts to the number of selections you add, showing you all possible bet type combinations considering the number of selected outcomes. This also includes a direct link to your betting history.
1WIN ANDROID APPLICATION
The user interface and all related functionality is mostly identical to the mobile website, which we had already covered above. Therefore, in this section we are mainly focusing on downloading and installing the application.
1win App Download (APK) and Installation
The app is currently available only for Android devices. Please make sure that your device’s OS version is 5 or higher, otherwise the app will not work.
Follow the steps described below to install and open the application on your phone.
First Step – Download the APK File
The app download link can be found in the footer of 1win’s website however, you would still need an account to use it. Press the green button below to be taken to the registration page, where you can download the app as soon as you create an account. When downloading the app, your phone might show you a pop up with a warning (as seen on the picture), you will need to press the “Ok” button to proceed.
Second Step – Install the App
Once the app is downloaded you will get another pop-up asking whether you want to open it. Press the “open” button to proceed.
At this stage your phone can give you a warning that the app is from an unknown source, so it requires additional approval. Chrome will give you an option to go over to the settings page.
On the settings page, you will need to enable the “Allow from this source” switch.
Once you do that, you need to tap the installation file again to install it on your device.
Step Three – Open the App and Sign in
Now, you should see the 1win app available on your phone’s home screen. You can log in using your existing account if you have one or you can create an account directly in the app.
1WIN DESKTOP WEBSITE OVERVIEW
A functional and user-friendly interface design is usually a good sign when it comes to betting sites, as this will enable you to find exactly what you need in just several steps, markets and selections should be clearly visible and understandable while the betslip part should show all details relevant to your bet and additional options and/or features if applicable. Below are some examples of how 1wins’s Canadian sports betting section looks like.
- Website Header & Main Navigation: The top header acts as the main navigation panel, linking to all critical sections of 1win, including account management, promotions, and payment pages.

- Betting Interface: Located in the middle of the screen, you can initially see a list of available games here, along with the number of open markets and odds for the most popular ones. Opening a game replaces this view with a detailed list of all open markets for that specific game, which can be filtered by outcome types and game stages.
- Betslip Section: Located on the right side of the screen, this section is where your selected outcomes are displayed. You can adjust your stake, switch bet types, and customize your odds change preferences.
