Global Bet – leading provider of virtual sports games

Global Bet virtual games were only recently added and are an excellent enhancement to the current Supabet virtual games offering.

About Global Bet

The Global Bet Virtual sports games are already highly popular in other African countries and now finally also available to South African punters.
The company, founded in 2004 in Malta, is the biggest independent provider of virtual sports. Over the years the company has expanded massively and currently their games are available in 25 countries. With years of experience Globalbet knows what bettors wants. Hence they won many different awards including the ‘Best Virtual Sport Provider 2019’ award.

Being live with Supabets is the first step in Globalbet entering the South African market. We are very excited to have them now at our fingertips as these games are definitely worth a try.

Games portfolio

The current virtual games portfolio covers more than 15 sports and some number games. Not all the games are yet available to us in South Africa but there is a lot to look forward to.

Virtual Sports Games

In the sports section you will find a wide variety, including

Football
Football Cup: is based on the UEFA tournament. You can bet on group stages as well as knockout stages all the way up to the final.
Virtual Football League: in this simulated championship series every team plays each other twice in a home and away format. The amount of teams in a championship depends on the league. A single game plays on the main screen while others are running in parallel at the same time. You can bet on every game and therefore place combination bets.
Basketball League
Tennis: the most-watched racket sport in the world is also a favourite in the virtual sports betting world.
