South African online bookmaker BET.co.za has expanded its service offering by launching its first mobile betting application for iOS.

Customers can use the app to place bets on a range of sports including football and horse racing, as well as play lucky numbers games.

The app features in-play betting options with live statistics in real time, while users will be able to set up Touch ID access on their iOS device to access the app.

In addition, customers will benefit from a range of special promotion and offers.

Scott Canny, chief executive of BET.co.za, said: “Our mission is to make betting as easy as possible for all South African sports fans and this is a huge step in the right direction.

“The app offers all the functionality of our web and mobile site in a more convenient format.

“This is just the beginning, and we’ll be constantly improving and adding more functionality as we gather feedback from our punters, before launching our Android app later this year.”
