Sportpesa is a very popular bookmaker in Africa that has operations in a number of African countries including South Africa. The bookmaker operates legally in South Africa having been licensed with the Western Cape Racing and Gambling Board. The bookmaker offers quite a number of betting products like Sports, Live Games, JengaBets and Lucky Numbers and this article is simply going to look at the Lucky Numbers which are offered by Sportpesa. If you are familiar with the South African betting industry, you will know that Lucky Numbers is one of the most popular betting products where punters can bet on some of the popular local and international lotteries like the UK 49, SA Lotto, SA Powerball, France Lotto, Russia Gosloto among others.
When you are betting on Lucky Numbers, you will not be betting on the actual lotto itself, but you will be betting on the outcome of lotteries from all over the world. If you win any amount of money betting on Lucky Numbers, the money will be paid out not by the official lottery operator but by your bookmaker like Sportpesa or any other bookmaker you might have placed the bet with. One major difference between lotto and lucky numbers is that when you are playing lotto, you will be rewarded for getting a few numbers correctly even if you miss some, but with lucky numbers betting, all your predictions have to be correct otherwise your bet would lose.
