Betway registration guide: three easy ways to sign up and play today

With its massive sportsbook, competitive odds and excellent customer service, Betway is one of SA's favourite online bookmakers.

Register at Betway and you can bet on almost any sport you can think of — from horse racing and rugby to soccer and darts. This includes virtual sports and even esports such as League of Legends and Counter-Strike.

Along with placing bets ahead of a match, you can head over to Betway's live betting section where the betting markets are ever-changing, reacting to the events happening in games in real time.

A review on Bettors.co.za adds “the site has some of the best bonuses, including welcome bonuses and other promotions”.

For instance, Betway's current Welcome Bonus for new players who use the sign up code “BETCODE” is a “100% First Deposit Match” up to R1,000. Click here for more information about this awesome promotion, including the Ts & Cs.

Before you can start playing, and claim your Welcome Bonus, you need to register an account.

Like with everything it offers, Betway makes this registration process quick and easy for punters by offering three ways to do so: you can register via the bookie's website, mobile site or the convenient Betway app.

Here's a closer look at how to complete the Betway registration process via each of these methods, step-by-step.

(Keep in mind that you'll need to be 18 years or older, reside in SA and have a valid ID, driver's license or passport to register an account.) 

Betway registration via the bookie's website or mobile site

Step 1: Visit the bookmaker's website or mobile site
