Pinnacle sportsbook review
We may earn a commission when you sign up through our links. It never changes our scores, which come from published facts and a public formula.
Our verdict
Pinnacle has been around since 1998, which makes it the oldest operator in this batch. Ragnarok Corporation N.V. runs it, with a Curacao licence of the pre-2024 type and an Ontario iGaming registration. It lists 10 sports, live betting and streaming, but no cash out or bet builder.
Pinnacle scores 8.7 out of 10, a strong result driven by its Ontario licence and long history. The trade-off is a short sports list and a plain feature set without cash out or bet builder. Responsible gambling tools and support are unconfirmed. We have not sampled its margins, so we do not say whether its prices are better or worse than others.
What we like

Who owns Pinnacle and what licences it holds
Ragnarok Corporation N.V. is the owner. Pinnacle has two licences on file: a Curacao master licence or sub-licence from the pre-2024 regime, and Ontario iGaming operator status, which combines AGCO registration with an iGaming Ontario operating agreement.
The Ontario approval is the strictest on record, giving a licence group of 10 out of 10. It does not mean the Ontario rules apply to every player, since the site is also served under Curacao. No restricted-country list is in our data.
Sports and markets
Ten sports are listed: boxing, cricket, ice hockey, tennis, basketball, golf, MMA, volleyball, baseball and Formula 1. Football, a sport most punters expect, does not appear in our record, which is why markets score 6.8, the lowest of the group.
The site is available in 12 languages, with apps for iOS and Android.
Live betting and what is missing
Live betting and streaming are confirmed. Cash out and a bet builder are not offered. If you value closing a bet early or building multi-leg slips from one game, this is not the book for that.
Margin data
We have not collected margins for Pinnacle yet. Since our odds score is empty, any claim about its price quality would be a guess, and we avoid it. Check prices against other bookmakers yourself.
Funding your account and getting paid
Deposit choices include Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Payz, Pix, Interac, iDebit, instaDebit, JCB, WebMoney and bank transfer. Crypto is limited to Bitcoin, Litecoin and Tether. Accounts can be held in 17 currencies, including GBP, CAD, EUR and USD.
Payout times are 0 to 1 hours for e-wallets, 0 to 120 hours for cards and 24 to 240 hours for banks, with 24 to 72 hours pending. Limits, fees, minimums and verification time are not published in our data.
Safer gambling tools and support
Self-exclusion, limits and reality checks are unconfirmed, so look for them in your account. Set a spending budget before you start.
Support channels and languages are also not confirmed.
