Sports Betting on Football, Basketball, Tennis and More

Football leads the sportsbook. Markets cover the Zambia Super League, the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, the Bundesliga, the CAF Champions League, the CAF Confederation Cup, the Africa Cup of Nations and World Cup qualifiers. Zambia national team matches, including Chipolopolo fixtures, carry extended market lists.

Popular football markets include:

  • Match result (1X2)
  • Double chance
  • Over/under total goals
  • Both teams to score
  • Correct score
  • Asian handicap
  • First goal scorer
  • Corners and cards
  • Half-time/full-time

Outside football, the platform lists NBA and EuroLeague basketball, ATP and WTA tennis, international cricket, rugby union, boxing and UFC cards.

Live Betting with Real-Time Odds and Cash Out

Live betting updates odds during the match. Players can follow a live statistics panel and a match tracker, then place bets while the event is in progress.

Cash out is available on selected pre-match and live bets. It lets a player settle a bet before the final whistle at the amount shown on the coupon. Partial cash out is offered on single bets and accumulators where the feature is enabled.

Casino Slots and Jackpot Games

The slot catalogue includes titles from major studios such as Pragmatic Play, Play'n GO, Hacksaw Gaming, Endorphina and Spribe. The lobby has filters for provider, volatility, feature type and new releases.

Slot categories include:

  • Classic three-reel fruit machines
  • Video slots with bonus rounds
  • Megaways titles with variable reels
  • Buy-feature slots
  • Progressive and daily-drop jackpot slots

Jackpot titles show the current prize pool in ZMW. Daily drop prizes begin from 5,000 ZMW in selected promotions.

Live Casino with Professional Dealers

Live tables stream in HD from studios and are hosted by professional dealers. Roulette, blackjack and baccarat run with several stake ranges, and game shows add multipliers and bonus rounds.

Available formats include:

  • European and Lightning-style roulette
  • Classic and speed blackjack
  • Baccarat with side bets
  • Dream Catcher-style wheel games
  • Poker variants against the dealer

Crash Games, Virtual Sports and Esports

Crash games are among the most played instant formats in Zambia. A multiplier rises from 1.00x and the player cashes out before it crashes. Rounds last seconds, and the interface shows live bets from other players.

Virtual sports run around the clock, so there is always an event to bet on between real fixtures. Esports markets cover major tournaments with pre-match and live odds.

Cashback, Reload Offers and Loyalty Program

Weekly casino cashback returns 10% of net losses on slots and live games, up to 1,000 ZMW. It is credited every Monday and carries a 1x wagering requirement.
