Usability is the word that comes to mind when discussing the website of the Lucky Bets Bookmaker. Everything about it is done in such a way to make it easy for users to bet. For example, all the most popular games of the day are displayed in the centre of the screen.

On the left side, there are "quick links" that will take you to the most popular competitions, e.g., England Premier League, SA PSL, etc. Then, there's also the search function, which is very intuitive. It works while you're typing. So, let's say you enter the letters "Liv" it will come back with Liverpool straight away.

At the moment of writing, there's no Lucky Bets App. However, this sportsbook does provide mobile betting on sports online. Not only can you bet on the mobile version of the website but you can also take advantage of the BOOK-A-BET option. 

How it's done is that you create a betting ticket on your computer. Then, after getting a reference code on your mobile, you just need to present it to a clerk at a local Lucky Bets sportsbook.

Sports Markets Covered By Lucky Bets SA

There are 18 items in the sports menu on the left side of the screen. All the "usual suspects" are there – football, rugby, cricket, and so on. All the world's major leagues are on the offer, as well as some local South African competitions.

This online sportsbook also covers motorsports, including competitions popular around the world like Formula 1 and MotoGP, but also some emerging events like Tasmania SuperSprint Race and Cook Out 250.

Then, there's also one entire section dedicated to horse racing betting. Luckybets Sportsbook covers races from around the world, which is why there are always at least a dozen of horse racing events you can bet on every day.

Deposits And Withdrawals

Sure, Lucky Bets is an online sportsbook that gives away free bet offers for South Africans, but this doesn't mean you shouldn't deposit some of your money as well. By doing this, you will get a bonus, as well as a chance to bet on whatever you like, without any conditions.

The best thing is that making a deposit is super easy and incredibly fast. The money can arrive into your account in literally one moment. It's because deposits are straight away, regardless of which method you choose.

Speaking of methods, you can go with one of the following three:

• EFT
• Instant EFT
• OTT

The same banking options are meant to be used for withdrawals as well. Speaking of which, withdrawals take slightly longer to process than deposits, although you can speed it up by getting your account verified.

Customer Support

Lucky Bets has a customer service team, which you can contact by calling 087 803 2029. Alternatively, you can send them an email to [email protected].

At the moment of writing, the sportsbook does not have live chat. The good news is that the support agents tend to reply very quickly to emails. They're even quicker to solve your problem if you contact them via phone.

Security and Privacy

The fact that Lucky Bets is licensed in South Africa is evidence of its trustworthiness. The state has your back if anyone tries to scam you while you're betting on this platform. Apart from protecting your funds, the sportsbook is also obliged to ensure your privacy.
