Best Sports Betting Sites in Botswana

Full List of Botswana Betting Sites

The list of online betting sites and online casinos in Botswana is very long, mainly because there are no regulations to prevent offshore bookies from entering the market. Of course, it has its downsides, but it mostly makes it very simple and easy to find a bookmaker with all the features you need.

Admittedly, finding the right sportsbook for you will take time, and there are many things you need to look out for. But if you're searching for a solid middle-of-the-pack bookie, you can't go wrong with bet365, William Hill, Unibet, or any of the bookmakers we have compiled in our list of the top Botswana betting sites.

How We Pick Bonuses & Promotions

Sports Betting in Botswana

In the global sports betting world, football, basketball, American football, and tennis are some of the most popular sports among bettors. And we are here to say that Botswana bookies offer vast betting markets on all 4 and more – even on Esports.

However, football is the most prevalent in Botswana, with basketball and cricket close behind all the available sports on betting websites. With so much demand for wagering markets on these sports, online bookies need to cover them extensively, giving you plenty of gambling options beyond the betting markets on the most prominent sporting events and leagues.

Bet on Competitions

Africa has plenty of major sports competitions, but there are not as many well-known national leagues in Botswana. Regardless, that hasn't stopped the Botswana bettors from placing wagers on some of the world's most prominent competitions, such as the English Premier League, Italian Serie A, and all tennis Grand Slam tournaments.

Besides the world-renowned sporting events, betting on the Africa Cup of Nations and FIBA Africa Championships is highly popular. These major sporting competitions, like many others, will usually have excellent betting bonuses and other promotions, offering plenty of value to Botswana bettors.

Payment Methods at Botswana Sportsbooks

Before you can start wagering on any Botswana betting sites, you need to deposit money into your betting account. You can do that with various deposit methods, which will vary depending on the sportsbook you're using.

Some bookies have more deposit options, while others focus on only a few. Most bookmakers support a wide range of popular payment methods, including M-Pesa, Airtel, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, wire transfers, and credit/debit cards.

Besides the mentioned options, some sportsbooks accept cryptocurrency payments, most commonly in Bitcoin or Ethereum. Bookies that work exclusively with crypto will have a much longer list of accepted cryptocurrencies, which might even include Dogecoin.

Likewise, all bookmakers have at least a few withdrawal options available, which most commonly include the same methods you would use for depositing money in E-wallets, wire transfers, and credit/debit cards. And if you're betting on a sportsbook that accepts crypto deposits, there's a perfect chance it will also pay out winnings in crypto if you wish.

Crypto deposits and withdrawals have become highly popular over the last few years because this is the fastest and safest method of moving money between 2 accounts. In most cases, your deposits/withdrawals will arrive in no more than a few minutes, albeit that might not always be the case, so it's wise to check with the bookmaker how long their processing times are.

Sports Gambling Laws in Botswana

Sports gambling is legal in Botswana and has been since 2012 when the 2012 Gambling Act legalized lottery and sports betting. But while sports gambling is legal and allowed, online sports betting is not regulated. No laws or regulations mention online betting under Botswana's Gambling Regulation Act.

As a result, bettors need to be much more careful when picking a sportsbook, as there are no laws and no gambling authority that would protect them in case of fraud. However, more positively, the lenient laws mean that Botswana bettors can freely register on any foreign online sports betting site.

Botswana punters have access to more online bookmakers than many other countries, including top African bookies like Bet9ja, BetKing, ForzzaBet, and even international betting powerhouses such as bet365, Unibet, Betway, Wiliam Hill, and many more.

Serving as a double-edged sword, the lack of regulations gives you more bookies to choose from but puts you at risk of picking a bookmaker that might not be safe. As long as you have read our article, you should know which Botswana betting sites are safe to use and which will offer you the best betting experience.

Responsible Gambling Organisations in Botswana

If you are dealing with gambling issues in Botswana, there are several global corporations and organizations that can offer assistance and support.

• Gambling Authority
• GambleAware
• GamCare
• Gamblers Anonymous
• Gambling Therapy

The Future of Sports Betting in Botswana

Botswana is a huge betting market with great potential, but hardly more than that. For whatever reason, the government has not regulated online sports betting yet, nor has it changed the wagering laws introduced a decade ago and need some adjustments.

Like many other African countries, Botswana's lack of online regulation is concerning since it puts bettors at risk of being victims of fraud and having no legal means to fight back. Furthermore, it deprives the country of tax money they would have gotten from offshore bookies.

Whether the Botswana government will realize this issue needs to be fixed remains to be seen. Regardless, the Botswana Gambling Authority is excellently developing the country's betting landscape.
