WagerLab - Bet Friends & Pools 17+

So far so good

I have been on the app for a couple weeks and won my 1st cash prize of 10 dollars today. When I downloaded the app I assumed there were bets to be placed and cash prizes to win but that’s not how this app works. You bet for fun against friends or the “house” or with your tickets they provide. With the tickets you enter a weekly cash drawing and can win anywhere from 50-5 dollars at the end of the week if your ticket is drawn. So far I like the app, if the cash gets deposited into my account I’ll consider keeping the app and continue to play hopefully there’s no limit to winning because I realize the more tickets you enter the better chance you have at winning and I plan on making lots of entries every week.😎

UpDATE: the cash got deposited this app is definitely legit

Wager Lab is awesome and responsive

Wager Lab is a fun non intrusive way to wager with your friends. It’s easy, intuitive, and clean. I can’t wait until football season is here so my buddies and I can start using it more.

Here are a few suggestions of things I would love to see (I don’t know how realistic they are):
1. You can link Venmo/Cash app to WagerLab.
2. Make a Golf section, I know it’s under sports props, but a consistent Golf section would be awesome.
3. Add the money line odds in sports like Baseball, Golf, and Hockey. I am aware that there is no juice to be played with, but if someone bets on a team I always have to go check the book that it’s somewhat fair and not a -190 bet. It would be awesome to just see it in the app, or better yet we can bet the odds with decimals.

Lastly, I just wanted to mention I reached out to Wager Lab and they responded promptly. I would recommend this app to anyone just because if their service is like that, then they are clearly trying to create the best product possible.

Shoddy

There is no way to know if the programmer has a weekly sweepstakes. He does not publish names of winners like most sites do. There is NO support. Does not answer emails.

The FAQ it says he will send names of winners. It also says you can enter the drawings by putting your name and some info on a special page on his site. Not true.

When you bet on juice like -500 (the favorite) you will have to give him perhaps 6 tickets to win one ticket. But, if you bet tickets on plus money like a +500 say, (a dog) you will only get one ticket for every one ticket you bet. In other words. you are not paid (assuming you are a winner) what a casino would pay you and most well-run sites pay. It is not the correct way to pay winning bets. It is shoddy.

When I first started, I did win two cash prizes in two drawings (if they are legitimate drawings.) At that point, I had not written a review. Once I wrote a review (now deleted) I did not win again. I think he lets people win so they'll write a glowing review.
If you know what real gambling is or you want to win cash regularly, you may not like it.

In his defense, I expect he makes little money from the app and can't afford to pay out much cash if any. That perhaps is why he depends on ticket sales. But the tickets have absolutely NO value except betting with or entering the questionable contests. And you just throw them away when entering contests.

Developer Response ,

Hello. I'm so sorry you've had a bad experience. Feel free to email us at team@wagerlab.app if you'd like a winners list from any of our contests or have any specific feedback that we can incorporate into the app. It seems you've indicated you have won before so you likely know that each and every prize is sent out. You are correct in that if someone is looking for a real-money gambling app, WagerLab is not for them. We're intended as a for-fun social betting app where you can learn about betting and/or play with your friends. Our tickets prize system is simply a way to reward users who use our all a lot. Still if there's anything we can do to make your experience using the app any better, please let us know! We're always just an email away.
