Pinnacle

Pinnacle is a bookmaker that is rightfully called “the best”. There are a lot of bookmakers, but Pinnacle is a recognized and well-deserved leader. We will find out how the company was formed and what it can offer to the players right now in our review.

Pinnacle’s Story: 20 Years of Success

The most professional bookmaker appeared back in 1998 (August 6) in Curacao. Back then, 20 years ago, the company was called PinnacleSport. It bore this name until the rebranding (2016). Players can now place sports bets 2 months after the start.

In those days, the lines were published on the Internet, but the rates were accepted by managers only on the “hot” telephone line. The interest of new participants was aroused by low margins and quick payouts of the money earned. Other foreign bookmakers could not boast of such merits. Therefore, the bookmaker began to rapidly bypass them.

The first online platform, Pinacle, was launched in 2000. The site worked so efficiently that between 2004 and 2006, the bookmaker was able to completely abandon accepting bets over the phone. Now all operations were done through the network.

The company’s business was going uphill. It opened its offices in different countries of the world. They are still in London, Malta and Manila.

More than 20 years have passed since the appearance of Pinnacle BC. During this time, the number of the bookmaker’s competitors has increased tenfold. But no one has ever been able to repeat the dizzying success of this office. Its director, Marco Bloom, claims that she had to survive and fight her way to leadership like in an aquarium among hungry sharks.

Registration & Verification with Pinnacle

To start betting, new players need to register in the system first. This is not a problem. Enough:

It is important to fill in all fields carefully, without errors and with valid data. In the application form, you will need to indicate your name, surname, mobile phone number, country of residence, date of birth, e-mail, account currency, security question and answer to it. In case of detection of invalid information that does not match the passport information, the user’s account will be blocked.

Only an adult citizen who has reached the age of 18 has the right to register.

In order for the bookmaker to make sure of your actual existence and responsibility for the actions performed, including financial transactions, the system conducts mandatory verification. This is a check of personal data – name, age, residential address. For verification, you need to provide any document that will contain all this information. It can be:

Line, Painting & Pinnacle Odds

Live is not the bookmaker’s strongest point. There are few events, the painting is rather scarce. But the average live margin is higher than in the pre-match by about 4%. Bets are accepted only on those sporting events, in the online broadcast of which the company is fully convinced (usually these are football and tennis competitions).

The painting is also often criticized by experienced players. But for most bettors, the offered set is quite enough.

Bookmaker Pinnacle pleases with its high limits.

If we are talking about the minimum bet, then its size is only one dollar.

The highest odds are typical for a football pre-match. The size of the coefficient depends on the popularity of the tournament. A similar thing can be traced in tennis and boxing pre-matches. The pre-match line includes several dozen popular sports disciplines.

You can bet not only on sports, but also on cyber events, functional all-around, politics, and entertainment. The pre-match includes not only top championships, but also international, qualifying tournaments. The available markets consist of:

You can also bet on the basic outcome, double chance, overtime, shootouts, total total, and period statistics.

In Live, there is a DangerZone rule, according to which a bet made at a dangerous moment of a football game is canceled if a goal is scored.

With its disadvantages, the bookmaker also has tangible advantages, which have been attracting new players for more than 20 years and successfully retaining regular experienced bettors. The main thing that the bookmaker offers is high odds (60% higher than those of competitors). No welcome bonuses, no enticing promotions. Only high odds, low margin (2%), minimum bet size of only one dollar.

Design, interface of the Pinnacle website

Bookmaker Pinnacle has created a discreet website design that is easy to navigate. Even a beginner can handle the controls. The menu contains all the main sections, and on the main page there is a Line and a list of events.

There are 16 languages available, a large selection of different currencies for opening an account. Verification of personal data can be done immediately after registration. It is enough to send a scan of the document, where your name, surname, address and age are indicated.

The site also has a section where you can download a mobile app for your smartphone or tablet. Downloads take place through the AppStore and GooglePlay services. You can downloadthe installation file or simply scan the QR code.

Does the bookmaker have bonuses?

At the stage of its initial formation, the bookmaker still gave welcome bonuses to new players and sometimes held promotions. Now BC Pinnacle does not do this. New registered bettors do not receive any bonuses.

But in our case, this is not necessary, because only experienced players who have chosen the highest odds play on the website of the office. The bookmaker also took care of the low margin. After such “goodies” you don’t need anything else.

By the way, sometimes you can find promods that are posted by the company itself in the news (extremely rarely) or at conferences and presentations.

Pinnacle mobile

The bookmaker has made sure that everyone can become its customers, including mobile and busy people. A mobile version and an application were developed for them. With the mobile version, everything is clear — it’s a copy of a standard computer site designed for mobile devices.

Owners of smartphones running on IOS or Android can download the application. It gives you access to the following features:

All the necessary functionality is present. Therefore, you can play, bet, and earn through the app anywhere: in the car, at home, at the resort, in a café, or at work during your lunch break.

Depositing and withdrawing funds from the Pinnacle website

You can withdraw your earnings from the Pinnacle website in the following ways:

Recently, Visa cards and the WebMoney payment system have also been added to them. This applies to a ruble account if you chose rubles as the currency when registering your account. For dollars and euros, there are even more withdrawal options. When withdrawing money once a month, the system does not impose commission fees on the player. If you decide to withdraw money two or more times per month, the commission will be $15.

Replenishment of the deposit is carried out in the same way. At the same time, you need to take into account that you can withdraw your earnings only in the same way as the account was replenished. And don’t forget about the preliminary verification of data. You can place bets and make financial transactions only after confirming the bettor’s data.

Pinnacle Mirror

Due to the fact that the bookmaker does not have a license to conduct gambling activities on the territory of the Russian Federation (the license is valid only in Curacao and Malta), it is recognized as illegal. Accordingly, the official website of the gambling office is blocked by the Roskomnadzor service.

But experienced developers of the online platform have long found a way out of the current situation. They regularly create new up-to-date “mirrors”, i.e. sites with new domain names. In this case, only the address of the specified link changes. And no more changes. The entire database, bettors’ accounts with their history, bets, and design are fully preserved. That is, when switching to the “mirror”, you do not have to register again every time. You just need to log in to the system using your usual input data.

Information about “mirrors” can be found in the news of the official website, on trusted forums of bettors and on our website.

Technical support

Pinnacle has excellent customer support. She works around the clock, but you can only contact her via email. Usually, the response comes in a few hours from the moment the player sends the request. You can also talk to the manager of the bookmaker’s office in the Live chat.
