Bet.co.za Review

Bet.co.za has its origins in South Africa and was formed in 2010 after the country hosted the FIFA World Cup that year. They are one of the more established betting sites in the country and their experience is clear to see as they have tailored their site to suit the local punter. They have one of the widest ranges of sports on offer and also have a comprehensive range of live casino games and the ever popular Betgames. They have in-depth betting markets for most sports but their coverage of the major sports like football, rugby, cricket, tennis and horse racing is among the best in the country. They are one of the few bookies that offer live streaming although it is only on selected matches at this stage. The Bet.co.za online site is easy to use even if you are a new player although the bookie requires you to complete your FICA registration before you log into your account which is a little strange. There are various ways to contact customer support but this service is only available during limited hours.

Bet.co.za Welcome Bonus

Most betting sites use attractive welcome bonuses to lure new plyers to their site and Bet.co.za have also used this ploy. They offer a first deposit match offer of up to R1000 to new players on their site. While this bonus is not the biggest welcome offer, it does have among the easier wagering requirements before a withdrawal is permitted. The bonus amount must be wagered 6 times on sports bets and must be taken at single bet minimum odds of 7/10(1.7). Multibets must have minimum odds of 12/10(2.20) and each leg must be 2/10 or greater. The minimum deposit amount must be at least R50 to be eligible for the Welcome Bonus. Bonus wagering must be completed within 30 days of your first deposit. Failure to complete the wagering requirement within this timeframe will result in bonus and associated winnings being forfeited.

The Bet.co.za mobile version has great speed and has all the features of the main site. The speed of this version makes it ideal for live in play betting and casino games as the odds are rapidly changing.

Bet.co.za Withdrawal Options

This is an area that Bet.co.za is sadly lacking in. The only way to withdraw your funds is through the bank account that is registered with the bookie.

There is no Instant Cash options which is a pity as all the other leading betting sites in South Africa offer this facility.
