BETTING SITES IN SOUTH AFRICA – FAQ

Is sportsbetting legal in South Africa?

Yes, as long as the bookmaker has received a license from one of the nine provincial governments. 

What happens if a license is revoked?

If a license is revoked, betting on that site will technically become illegal. We have however never heard of a better being prosecuted for that offence. You might have a harder time getting your funds released to you though!

Can I have multiple betting accounts in South Africa?

Yes, and we would even recommend having many. This way, you can compare the odds from several bookmakers for your bets – keep in mind that the odds strategy of a bookmaker might change over time!

I'm under 18, can I still open an account?

Maybe – but we would never list a bookmaker who allows that.
