World Sports Betting – Final Words

World Sports Betting pride themselves in offering a friendly, fast and secure online sports betting experience. They have been at the forefront of South African Sports Betting over the last decade with innovative markets tailored for the South African customer.

The WSB site itself is looking a bit old-school compared to newer bookmakers. Nevertheless it works well across all devices. The user-friendly navigation makes mobile betting easy and moreover very convenient.

World Sports Betting offers a unique and premium sport betting experience. The information section is overall very useful. While the pop ups are not ideal but does the job and gives you what you are looking for. There are “How to” videos to assist you with registering an account, how to place a single bet or a multiple bet. In addition, they have for example an entire section dedicated to Betting Rules to assist new and existing punters.

We found the registering of an account not very user friendly but just follow the video and you will be good to go. World Sports Betting has a very reliable customer support team and they are more than willing to assist with any queries.

That is to say, you will have an outstanding experience with WSB as they have fabulous promotions with some of the best markets. Together with an excellent reputation and a free sign up bonus there is nothing that should hold you back. So go on and put World Sports Betting to the test.
