Betting Apps

Want to make betting from your phone or tablet a breeze? With so many fantastic betting apps now available in South Africa—you can play games anywhere, anytime. Chances are if you enjoy betting on a bookmaker’s website, you’ll love playing on their mobile app even more!

Why so many punters love to use betting apps is the convenience of playing sports, casino and lottery games on the go.

Through the latest mobile software and technology, betting apps also offer flexibility to punters and provide them with more choice like Cash Out. Players who limit themselves to desktop betting are missing out on a whole world of mobile gaming and all the wonderful ways to win which these apps help to make possible.

With more options than ever, you’re forgiven for feeling overwhelmed when it comes to choosing a good mobile betting app. That’s why at Best Sports Betting we make it our mission to continuously review all the latest betting apps available in South Africa.

We show you how and where to download all the top-rated betting apps, let you know which games are available, plus tell you about app-specific features you can expect. Now it’s much easier for you to decide which betting app is the right one for you!

What Can I Do With a Betting App?

Typically, betting apps include all the games your bookmaker has available on their website unless you’re playing Data Free. For instance, if a betting site has Sports, Casino, BetGames and Lucky Numbers available, then you can usually play all these games on their betting app too.

However, there are sometimes features specific to desktop sites, especially when it comes to banking, that may not be available on a betting app.

Are Apps Better than Websites?

That depends on how you define better. Do mobile apps offer punters more flexibility than desktop or mobile sites? Yes, definitely. You can also usually make a deposit and place a bet in fewer clicks with an app than on a website.

Using an app is not necessarily better but it can certainly help you to place bets faster and often consume less data depending on the product. If you like betting with a particular bookmaker, we recommend using both their website and their betting app if they have one available.

How Do Betting Apps Work?

First, you’ll need to download your favourite bookmaker’s betting app for Android or iOS depending on your device and operating system. Once inside the app, the way betting works is very similar to using a website.

For sports and lottery bets, navigate the app’s menus to find your match/draw and market, then click the odds to add any bet to your betslip. You can play casino and BetGames by simply clicking on the title to load the game.

Which Betting App Should I Download?

We recommend trying the betting app for all bookmakers you like to use wherever one is available. Because most apps are designed with simplicity in mind, using an app to place your bets is often quicker and easier than on a desktop or mobile site. Betway, Sportingbet, Supabets (Data Free), Sunbet and Playabets all have great apps to use!

Which Device Do I Need For App Betting?

In South Africa, some apps are only available to download for Android while others you can also get for iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads.

Where Can I Get a Betting App?

You can usually find links for downloading betting apps on the website of your favourite bookmaker. If no link is available on their site then try searching for the app on Google Play or the Apple App Store.
