Bookmakers margins

The name "Premier Bet" might not ring a bell to many but definitely "Baba Ijebu" is a household name within the country. This bookmaker originally started out as a lottery focused bookie and have since tried to evolve with time by spreading out to the general sports markets as well. The fact that their focus as a bookmaker started from the lottery is pretty evident in their "limited" sports-book.

Sadly, this is a very important aspect for bookmakers and customers. The better and more options a bookie offers, the better their chances of luring new clients as well as keeping old ones. Premier Bet has competitive odds to lure customers although at the moment they offer only a few sports for betting. This bookmaker only offers 10 different sports markets as at the time of this review which includes football, tennis, table tennis, rugby union, ice hockey, basketball, handball, rugby league, and boxing. These available sports, however, possess lots of options to pick from.

The most popular sport on Premier Bet is football, offering a wider range of leagues and competitions complemented by many options to wager on. They offer both local and international competitions from over 30 different countries. The top European leagues headline the menu and those games a provided with the most options. All English premier league matches have more than 200+ unique bet selections. These include match-winner, goal markets, handicaps, corner markets, goal scorers among many others.

The distinct feature that makes Premier Bet stand out is its wide pool and excellence in lottery games. They are indisputably the best in the country in this market. The lotto market is available to customers who believe in their good fortune.

Five numbers are selected from a pool of numbers 1-90 and staked (min. N50 and max. N50,000). Draws take place afterward somewhere in Lagos where five numbers are selected randomly. You get 24 times the amount of your stake if at least two numbers are pulled out during the draws. The fact that you need no real knowledge of sports to play the lottery and the minimum stake is low has made it a nationwide popular type of betting. Everyone believes in luck anyways.

As of the time of this review, it was stated of their site that a new virtual product is coming soon. Prior to that, there were no virtual games presents. We hope they install the necessary features so as not to hinder new customers who are interested in virtual games. There are also no casinos or esports games seen on the website and we can only assume these are features they plan to bring on soon.

The In-play market is available on Premier Bet covering all available sports on the platforms with an adequate number of options to compliment them. With the little sports options they have, they are covering them well and this equally spread to their live feature as well.

Quite interesting that all of the ten sports they offer can also be wagered on in their live betting and not even a lot of the more recognized bookmakers in the country can boast of that.

The most surprising is the live streaming which is not even available on some bigger betting platforms as well. Highly commendable of Premier Bet as this definitely would attract more customers for them.

Coupled with all of these, they also have a functioning live score page as well as a detailed statistics page for all sports on offer to enhance punters' chances of winning.
