With the country currently ablaze in flags, few can match South Africans when it comes to sporting passion. Want to bet? Now you can!
VoltBet.com is a South African licensed, designed and legally-operated sports betting website that gives fans of local and international sports and events the chance to put their knowledge to the test in a secure and easy to use environment. Will Victor lead the Bulls to glory? Will Tiger take the green blazer? From rugby and golf to American football and politics, registered users are able to truly shout the odds.

Betting opened on Thursday 10 June 2010 for Saturday’s Springbok versus France game, and signing up to place a bet couldn’t have been simpler.

Voltbet.com is easy to navigate with tutorials for beginners, drop down menus that show global events and odds as placed by experts in the sports betting field. The site has instructional videos for how to start betting, as well as “Betting Word Explained” under the “HELP” facility.
Best of all it is 100% legal, 100% licensed and 100% secure. The odds are extremely competitive, and VoltBet.com is 100% South African.

Says Daniel Kustelski, group marketing and sales: “South Africans are world famous for their sporting passion. Some even say we’re fanatics. Importantly, our sports fans are knowledgeable and now have a platform where they can make that knowledge pay, at highly competitive odds - and have fun doing it. Our pricing is very competitive and certainly the best pricing in some instances for local sports.”

Voltbet has a wide variety of events that soccer fans can bet on during the world cup. Kustelski says: “We offer ‘in-live’ betting on World Cup right now, which means that as the game is being played, Voltbet will update the odds.”

The site also offers “exotic” bets, where users can predict the correct score on many of the events. “This brings the opportunity for additional bets on the games, outside of the normal win/lose/draw that we offer.”

Now local fans have the chance to make their allegiance pay off at South Africa's premiere sports betting platform, whether it’s the next One Day International at Wanderers or Nadal taking control on clay.

Geraint Crwys-Williams of Primedia, which is a partner in this venture, says: “This is the first time the man in the street will be able to access a slick, easy-to-use sports betting service without worrying about anything except who to bet on!”
Odds are, you have strong views on the soccer. Make them pay!
