Betfred Review
Jump to:
With the acquisition of a local South African wagering platform in 2021, Betfred entered the South African market and has been functioning ever since.
The Mpumalanga Economic Regulator has issued a licence to the renowned betting operator, confirming that the establishment is a legal sportsbook for punters in South Africa.
On this site, South African citizens can bet on sports and play casino games. They can choose from a broad selection of payment methods to fund their accounts.
