Detailed LuckyBets Review

LuckyBets are rather new to the online sports betting industry however they do have retail stores for quite some time. We were pleasantly surprised with the no fuss approach and colour combo of the very trendy site. Lucky Bets operates on the Turfsport platform which ensures a user-friendly online and mobile betting experience. The mobile version loads quickly and is easily accessible.

Let us have a look at the Lucky Bets online offer in more detail to test if this betting site lives up to its “where the winners play” slogan.

Betting Markets & Sports

Lucky Bets does not offer as many sport as many other bookmakers but considering they are relatively new to the game we are sure they will be adding more soon. The most popular sports are available including rugby, soccer, horse racing, tennis, MMA, handball, Ice Hockey, baseball and cricket. Various betting options can be selected at quite competitive odds which are comparable to bigger bookies such as Betway or Sunbet.

Live Betting & Live Streaming

There is currently no live betting available at Lucky Bet online. However, they do offer pre-match betting on most major sports.

Lotto, Lucky Numbers & Betgames

Lucky Bets offer most Betgames. Only Speedy 7 and 6+Poker are missing and we are sure these will be added in due course. You can also enjoy Lucky Numbers draws from around the world right from your desktop, laptop or mobile in SA. From the Russian Gosloto, SuperenaLotto in Italy to the UK 49s – take your pick! Lucky Bets also offers all the RSA lottos for you to enjoy. We expect the Luckybet casino games offering to expand soon to offer even more fun casino-style instant games to players.

Luckybets has integrated a good range of payment gateways for depositing and withdrawing online. Aside from debit and credit cards you can use vouchers and mobile payment solutions. Of course, you can also make cash deposits in branch.

Lucky Bets – Final Words

We found Lucky Bets fresh and simplistic, easy on the eyes and very user friendly. The offering is slightly limited compared to more established bookmakers. However, they are fairly new to the market and have hit the ground running well. They are operating on the Turfsport platform which will see many additional features over the coming months. Therefore, it will be interesting to see what more Lucky Bets have to offer online in the near future.

Signing up to Lucky Bets is easy and quick, just click on the ‘Register Now’ button in the right top hand corner and fill in your details. Remember to email your FICA documents as soon as possible to enjoy the R25 free sign-up bonus.

Lucky bets have good and enticing promotions especially to new players. Even though there is currently no downloadable app available you can add Lucky Bets to the home screen of your Android and iOS devices. We found this very helpful for quick access and quick loading. If you are a newbie or more established player, do go have a look at Lucky Bets. With a R25 free bonus for registering an account there is nothing to lose and you can place your first lucky bet for free.
