Sports Coverage
R85 covers the sports that matter most to Filipino bettors — local leagues, international competitions, and everything in between.
Bet on PBA, NBA, UAAP, and international league games. Basketball is the most popular betting sport in the Philippines, and R85 covers it fully — from opening tip-off to final buzzer.
From the Philippine Azkals to the Premier League, La Liga, and the UEFA Champions League — football markets on R85 run deep with match results, handicaps, and more.
Boxing has deep roots in the Philippines. R85 covers major bouts — from local undercards to world title fights featuring Filipino and international champions.
Mobile Legends, Dota 2, CS2, and Valorant are huge in the Philippines. Bet on the biggest esports tournaments with R85 using the same account you use for everything else.
The PVL and UAAP volleyball seasons draw massive crowds in the Philippines. R85 lets you follow the action with match betting and more across both leagues.
Tennis, badminton, MMA, baseball, and other international sports are also available on the R85 sportsbook. If a major event is happening, you can usually find it here.
Bet Types
R85 supports the most common bet types used in Philippine sports betting, from straightforward match winners to more detailed markets for experienced bettors.
The simplest bet — pick the team or player you think will win. For football, you can also bet on a draw. Works across basketball, football, volleyball, boxing, and esports.
When one side is clearly stronger, handicap markets level the playing field by giving the underdog a virtual head start. Popular for PBA and NBA games where point spreads matter.
Bet on whether the total combined score will go over or under a set line. A favourite for basketball bettors who know their teams' scoring tendencies well.
Combine multiple selections into one bet. All picks need to win for the parlay to pay out, but the potential returns are higher compared to individual single bets.
Bet on the result at the end of the first half or a specific quarter rather than the full match. Great for bettors who like to narrow their focus to a shorter window of play.
Live in-play betting on R85 lets you place wagers after a match has already started. Odds shift in real time based on what is happening on the court, field, or ring — which means sharper bettors can find value that was not available before kick-off.
