If you have never heard of Betway – even if you are a fledgling sports bettor based in Nigeria – then you haven’t been paying attention! Betway are one of the biggest sports betting brands in the world, and have mini-sites dedicated to all the many countries that they accept online sporting wagers from. If you live in Nigeria, then all this fantastic sports betting goodness is open to you!

Betway themselves have been around since 2006, and are a well-rounded gambling company who offer slots, casino games, bingo and even poker alongside their sports-betting options. If you’ve a desire to do something, and it involves online wagering of any description, then you can be assured that you will be able to do it at Betway.

This company has multiple licences obtained from multiple jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority. Betway also has deals with a number of top-ranking football teams, including Paris Saint Germain, Leicester City, West Ham United, Norwich City and Brighton & Hove Albion. It also has a deal with the Swedish eSports team Ninjas in Pyjamas.

Sports & Betting Markets

Firstly, there are fewer sports available to Nigerian players than on the main Betway brand. But, there are still more than enough with 20+ sports.

  • Soccer
  • Volleyball
  • Esports
  • Table Tennis
  • MMA
  • Handball
  • Tennis
  • Cricket
  • Basketball
  • Baseball
  • Ice Hockey
  • Handball
  • Golf
  • Boxing
  • Motorsport
  • Rugby
  • Aussie Rules
  • American Football
  • Cycling
  • Snooker
  • Darts
  • Futsal
  • Biathlon

Betway offers more sports than almost all Nigerian bookmakers as they flex their international muscle. As we look through the sports, we find a wide variety of betting markets to choose from. All the popular betting markets such as Match Result, Overs/Unders, Both teams to score, etc, but also bookings bets, combo bets, and more.

Overall, Betway Nigeria offers one of the most complete sportsbooks for Nigerian players compared to other popular Nigerian bookies such as Bet9ja, BetKing, and Nairabet. There is a clear difference, and it is likely because Betway is a global brand with massive budgets to improve the services and products they offer.

As for the betting margins (how much a bookie “charges” you to place a bet), Betway has always been in our top three betting sites for the highest odds. But, the betting margins are higher for Betway Nigeria, as we see an average of 7.66% in our tests. However, betting margins tend to be higher in Nigeria, with other popular bookies margins going up to 14%.

Virtual Sports Betting at Betway

Virtual sports betting is a relatively new form of betting where instead of betting on actual games, you bet on virtual games that are decided by computers. Betting on virtual games works similarly as betting on real sports but the results are not decided by actual humans.

While the games are not that predictable in virtual sports, it is still a fun way to experience betting without knowing a lot about the history of the games to win big. Since the game is virtual, you can also be sure that there are no refereeing faults that can hamper your odds of winning bets in real games.

Live Betting at Betway

Betway allows its players to bet live on matches of all kinds of sports too! In addition, players on the betting can also get access to fast live streams of all the major sports on the mobile app, ranging from Horse Racing, Basketball, Cricket, Tennis, Soccer, and more!

Live betting is arguably more exciting than traditional betting because you get to bet while the game is still going on and the odds are constantly changing based on what is happening in the game. On Betway, a player can find all the information about recent matches, statistics, and changes!

Casino Games and More

As well as ‘Sport’, ‘ESports’ and ‘In-Play’ at the main Betway site, there are several other online wagering options, including casino, live casino, esports and vegas. Below is a quick summary of what you can expect to find within each section:

  • Betway Casino: The Betway online casino has everything that a casino play could possibly want, including a matched deposit bonus that could be worth up to $250! The online casino has a massive number of slots from the amazing provider that is Microgaming. We usually frown when an online casino only has one provider, but if an online casino does have only one online casino, then Microgaming is a very good choice! You’ll also find roulette and blackjack in this section.
  • Betway Live Casino: Betway gives you access to live casinos runs by Evolution Gaming and NetEnt. Here you will be able to play roulette, blackjack, baccarat, casino hold’em, sic bo and 3 card poker, along with unique titles like Dream Catcher, Monopoly Live and Lightning Dice.
  • Betway Vegas: This is Betway’s other online casino, where you can find games from other providers whom are not Microgaming. Among the providers offering their wares in this section are NetEnt, Barcrest and BigTimeGaming.

Betway mobile apps

This foreign bookie offers optimal mobile solutions that include very alike and similar as to design and content mobile browser versions and Android and iOS apps.

While we hardly can find even a single difference between Betway mobile browser version and the apps, the mobile browser version is quite different from the official desktop platform. However, it’s only the design that seems to be different as you will soon realize that both websites come with the same services and products. When you want to place a bet on a certain match you can do either via a computer, or via a mobile device. The same goes for any casino game – you can play it no matter what device you use right now.

The installation files for both of the apps (one for Android and one for iOS) are uploaded in the mobile browser version and can be found by clicking first on the menu, then on information. If you have an iPhone or iPad you can find Betway apps via Apple iTunes, too.

Betway Nigeria Promotions

Betway Nigeria has several promotions for existing customers, with offers for the sportsbook.

We are confident that you can make a registration in this bookmaker on your own and with no difficulties at all as the procedure is extremely easy. However, we will still tell you in short what to do in order to have an account in this betting house.

First of all, start by clicking with your finger on the green button called Sign Up. Then, fill in your mobile phone number, select a password and enter your two names. Be attentive and type your names the way they are written in your official ID. Press on the button called Next and continue with filling in your date of birth, address and State.

Fortunately, Betway has not included the annoying part of any bookie’s registration processes – the confirmation part whether with codes via SMS messages or links through your e-mail box. Once you fill in your personal data, you literally immediately get the chance to make a deposit.

Security

At the time of writing, Betway NG is one of the best betting sites in Nigeria. The betting site is licensed and regulated by the Lagos State Government, and the National Government of Nigeria.

Betway is available in other African countries as well, including the likes of Uganda, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa and Zambia.

At the time of writing, Betway Nigeria is not offering a visible responsible gambling section. Having confirmed the same by talking to a customer support representative, you cannot set deposit limits, risk limits, or session timers, among other responsible gambling enforcing tools, which is a huge let down.

That being set, Betway NG does come with 128 bit SSL encryption technology, which ensures that all the transactions that are processed on the betting site, are done so in a secure manner. Betway NG monitors customer accounts, and advises customers with respect to safe gambling practices, if they see the need to do so.

You must practise a safe brand of betting at all times. Do not over-indulge yourself on Betway NG’s platform, and refrain from wasting away your hard-earned money.

Betway NG is not associated to any criminal group, and does not have any record of being involved in criminal practices. Your stored funds are separated from the money used towards running Betway NG’s various platforms.

All stored funds, and personal identification information is safe from the reach of miscreants. All the numbers that are generated on the platform, are done on the basis of a random number generation procedure. Betway NG has no control over you winning, or losing a placed bet.

Overall, Betway Nigeria is secure, reliable, and transparent.
