About Matchbook
Matchbook is a licensed betting exchange and casino operated by Triplebet Limited, a company based in Alderney that has offered exchange betting and casino games online since 2004. This page sets out the company’s background, licensing position, platform technology and contact options, as documented by the operator and its published terms.
Who We Are
Matchbook was launched in 2004 and is run by Triplebet Limited, headquartered in Alderney. The brand built its reputation on the betting exchange model, where customers back and lay outcomes against each other rather than betting against a traditional bookmaker’s margin. Alongside the exchange, Matchbook operates an online casino with slots, table games, jackpots and live dealer tables.
The operator’s stated focus is on exchange pricing and low-commission trading for sports markets, with the casino added as a complementary product. This review site is independent of the operator; the information here is drawn from Matchbook’s own published documentation and licence records.
What distinguishes Matchbook from a standard bookmaker is the exchange structure itself: odds are set by market participants, and the operator charges commission on net winnings rather than building a margin into every price.

Licensing & Regulation
Matchbook holds a licence from the UK Gambling Commission, which permits it to offer exchange betting and casino products to customers in the United Kingdom. The licence is held by the operating company, Triplebet Limited of Alderney.
UK Gambling Commission oversight imposes specific obligations on the operator, including:
- Segregation and protection of customer funds in line with licence conditions
- Identity verification before withdrawals — biometric photographic ID plus a document verifying address, uploaded through the account section
- Responsible gambling tools, including deposit limits, reality checks, time-outs and self-exclusion
- A minimum age of 18 for all customers
Details of how these obligations are implemented appear in the operator’s own documentation. Related pages on this site: Matchbook terms and conditions, Matchbook privacy policy and Matchbook responsible gambling.
Our Platform & Technology
The Matchbook Exchange is the core of the platform, supporting back and lay betting across sports markets with commission applied to net winnings. The casino lobby is powered mainly by NetEnt and Red Tiger, with live tables supplied by Evolution. Native iOS and Android apps are available through the official app stores.
Accounts are denominated in GBP, alongside EUR and USD. Funding options for UK customers include Visa debit card, Mastercard debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Skrill, Neteller, PaysafeCard and bank transfer. Withdrawals must return to the deposit method where cards are used; e-wallets are the quickest payout route, while card and bank withdrawals are typically processed within 24 hours but can take up to 5 days to reach the bank account. The default minimum withdrawal is £10, bank wire transfers carry a £500 minimum, and cards have a stated maximum of £20,000. Matchbook may apply a fee where withdrawal activity does not correspond to a sufficient volume of play.
Security on the platform centres on the mandatory verification process: accounts must be verified with biometric photographic ID and a proof-of-address document before any withdrawal is released. The new-customer offer is ‘Get £30 in Free Bets when you bet £20’ with bonus code BB30 — bet and settle 1x£10 on the Matchbook Exchange at odds of 2.0 or more, and 3x £10 Bet Builder Free Bets are credited within 72 hours of the qualifying bet settling; first deposits made with Skrill, Neteller or PaysafeCard do not qualify.
Contact & Support
Customer queries are handled through the channels listed in the operator’s help section, accessible from the account area and the main site navigation. The operator’s documentation directs routine account questions — verification status, payment queries, bet settlement — to its support team, while responsible gambling requests such as time-outs and self-exclusion can be actioned directly within the account settings.
Business and partnership enquiries, including affiliate arrangements, are managed by Triplebet Limited through the contact routes published on the operator’s corporate pages. This independent review site does not act as an intermediary for either support or partnership matters.
