Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions govern your use of hushmail.co and explain what this site is, what it isn't, and what you're agreeing to by reading and acting on the information here. By using this site you accept the terms below. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

What this site is and isn't

Offshore Sportsbooks is an independent research and comparison resource covering offshore sportsbooks that accept US bettors — meaning betting sites licensed and based outside the United States, typically in jurisdictions such as Curaçao, Panama, or Costa Rica. We publish reviews, rankings, and educational content to help readers compare these operators on odds, market coverage, bonuses, payout speed, and banking options.

We are not a sportsbook, a bookmaker, or a gambling operator. We do not accept wagers, process payments, or hold player funds. We don't operate under any US gaming license because we don't take bets — we write about the sites that do. Nothing on this site should be read as an endorsement that any listed operator is legal, licensed, or regulated within your specific US state.

The legal grey area, stated plainly

Every operator named on this site — including Lucky Rebel, Bovada, BetOnline, BetNow, Everygame, BetUS, Sportsbetting, Xbet, MyBookie, and ApuestaHoy — is licensed offshore, not by any US state or federal gaming authority. This means they operate in a legal grey area for US bettors. Federal and state law around offshore betting is unsettled and varies by state; some states have laws that could apply to residents who place bets with offshore books, and enforcement approaches differ across the country.

Because these operators sit outside US regulation, none of the consumer protections that apply to state-licensed sportsbooks apply here. There is no segregated player fund requirement enforced by a US regulator, no state-backed dispute resolution process, and no guarantee that a payout will be honored on the timeline advertised. Using an offshore sportsbook carries real financial risk, including the risk that withdrawals could be delayed, reduced, or refused. It is your responsibility to check the laws of your own state before using any operator reviewed on this site. Where tax or legal questions come up, treat any general information here as a starting point only — consult a qualified professional for advice specific to your situation.

How our rankings and reviews work

Our editorial ratings reflect independent research into publicly available information about each operator: bonus terms, market coverage, banking options, payout policies, and reputation among bettors over time. Ratings are our own opinion, not a guarantee of performance, and they are not customer-review scores. We do not test operators by depositing or wagering real funds, and no claim on this site should be read as implying we have.

hushmail.co earns commission when readers click through to certain operators and sign up. This commercial relationship never determines an operator's position in our rankings — a site pays us nothing to rank higher, and we disclose limitations for every operator we cover, including the highest rated ones. You can read more about how we evaluate offshore books on our About Us page.

Bonus and promotional terms

Welcome offers and reload bonuses shown on this site, such as percentage-match deposit bonuses or free bet credits, are set by the operators themselves and are subject to change without notice. Every bonus carries rollover (wagering) requirements, minimum odds restrictions, expiry windows, and eligibility conditions that materially affect its value. We make reasonable efforts to summarize these accurately at the time of publication, but you must confirm the current terms directly with the operator before opting in. Nothing on this site guarantees that a bonus will be available, honored, or worth any specific amount to you personally.

No guarantee of winnings

Sports betting involves risk, including the risk of losing the full amount wagered. Nothing on hushmail.co should be interpreted as a guarantee of profit, a reliable source of income, or a "lock" bet. Odds, lines, and market information referenced on this site are for illustrative and comparative purposes and may not reflect live pricing at any given sportsbook. Past results, payout speed, or reputation do not guarantee future performance by any operator.

If you use cryptocurrency to fund a betting account — Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, or stablecoins such as USDT or USDC — be aware that crypto values can move sharply between the time you deposit and the time you withdraw, which is a separate risk from the betting itself.

Age and eligibility

This site and the operators it reviews are intended for adults 21 and older (or the applicable legal minimum age in your jurisdiction, where higher). We do not knowingly provide content to, or target, anyone under that age. If you are underage, please leave this site. Eligibility to use any offshore sportsbook also depends on your local laws, which you are responsible for checking.

Responsible gambling

Betting should be entertainment, not a way to solve financial problems or escape stress. Never bet more than you can afford to lose, and never chase losses by increasing stakes to try to recover money already lost. Offshore sportsbooks are not required to offer the same responsible gambling tools, self-exclusion programs, or deposit limits that regulated US operators must provide, so it's worth checking what tools an operator does offer before you rely on them.

If gambling stops being fun or starts affecting your finances, relationships, or wellbeing, help is available. Call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER, available across the US. Our Responsible Gambling page has further resources and guidance on setting limits.

Accuracy and changes to information

We update reviews and rankings periodically, but odds, bonus terms, licensing details, and banking options at offshore sportsbooks can change without notice. We aim to keep listed information current as of the date shown on each page, but we cannot guarantee that every detail matches what you'll see on an operator's site at the moment you visit. Always verify bonus terms, deposit and withdrawal methods, and any fees directly with the operator before committing funds.

We may update these terms and conditions from time to time to reflect changes in our content, the sites we cover, or applicable law. Continued use of hushmail.co after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.

Limitation of liability

hushmail.co provides information for research purposes only and makes no warranty, express or implied, about the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any operator listed here, including their licensing status, payout practices, or fund security. We are not responsible for losses — financial or otherwise — arising from your decision to use any offshore sportsbook, including delayed, reduced, or refused withdrawals, account restrictions, or disputes between you and an operator. You use any information on this site, and any third-party sportsbook, entirely at your own risk.
