Detailed Afribet Review
Afribet is a growing bookmaker across Africa and is seeing increased popularity in South Africa. Afribet was founded by Les Kourie, a true master of on course bookmaking. Apart from several Gauteng-based retail betting shops this bookmaker aims to make betting available to everyone through a strong online offering.
The online betting offering was recently overhauled and the revamp comes with a couple of improvements. Next to a faster platform the enhancements allow simpler selections while providing better odds and prices. Let’s see if Afribet can hold up to its theme ‘May your bets come true’.
Offers & Promotions
New players can currently benefit from a 100% First Deposit Match Bonus up to R5000.
Min. 1st dep. R100; max. bonus R5000; contact support to claim before placing a bet; wagering requirement 6x; promotional and general T&Cs apply.
Regular players can benefit from Daily Special Bets offers on selected markets, odds boosts and limited-time only bonuses on live games.
Pros
- Good range of sports and betting markets
- Easy-to-use across all devices
- Lucky Numbers, Bet Games and other live games
Cons
- Lack of special features such as Cash Out or Bet Builder
- No in-play betting
- No app
Betting Markets & Sports
Nearly 20 sports are available for betting with Afribet. This includes soccer, cricket, rugby and horse racing as well as sports like boxing, volleyball, darts or table tennis.
Outrights have been included into the betting mix lately. Therefore, soccer leagues and competitions from Asia, South America and across Europe are now available.
In addition, Afribet has some nice betting features. Save time placing your bets with the ‘quick bet option’ or use the online bet codes for faster betting in shop.
All sports are clearly categorised and easy to access across devices with various betting markets available at good odds.
Esports
Esports is available at Afribet but quite limited.
Live Betting & Live Streaming
Africa South Africa offers currently only pre-match betting and no live in-play betting options are available. If you are looking for a bookmaker that offers you live betting we recommend Gbets or YesPlay
Lotto, Lucky Numbers and Games
Afribet offers players to bet on a wide variety of lucky number draws. Play SA Lotto, Daily Lotto and Powerball or bet on highly popular international lotteries. Aside from UK49’s or Russia Gosloto you can participate in draws from smaller lotteries such as Philippines 6/49 or Irish Lotto.
In addition, Afribet features some live games. Currently you can play the 3 lotto-style Betgames (Lucky 5 , Lucky 6 and Lucky 7), Live Roulette, Spin & Win and Big 20, a Keno style game. We are missing the Evoution live casino games.
Payment Options
Afribet offers you a diverse range of payment methods for instant deposits. To process a withdrawal your account needs to be FICA verified. Payouts are processed in a timely manner while daily, weekly or monthly limits might apply. Withdrawals are not processed on weekends or public holidays. Special withdrawal restrictions apply if you want to withdraw your deposit.

Afribet – Final Words
Afribet South Africa is still a fairly new player in the local sports betting world. With a license by the Gauteng Gambling Board it is a secure and trustworthy bookmaker. The welcome offer is quite good and hence we recommend signing up and trying Afri Bet for yourself.
The current betting offering is decent but not yet outstanding. You can bet on various sports pre-match but not yet in-play and play a variety of live games. The live games range is continuously expanded and therefore we hope to see the Evolution live games titles on Afri Bet soon.
Don’t mix up Afribet with Africabet which is a sportsbook that operates on a Curacao license and hence is not legitimate for South African players as per current regulation.
