About Premier Bet
Premier Bet was founded in 2013 by Editec, a UK-headquartered international gaming group led by CEO Frank Attal. Headquartered operationally in Lusaka, Zambia, Premier Bet has grown into one of the most geographically widespread sportsbooks in Africa, with a presence in 17 countries spanning East, West, Central, and Southern Africa.
In some markets, Premier Bet operates under a different brand name due to local market or regulatory considerations — rsbet.com in Nigeria and mercurybet.com in Sierra Leone — while maintaining the same underlying platform, promotions, and operational standards. This pan-African strategy has made Premier Bet one of the most recognised “under-the-radar” large operators on the continent, with deep local league coverage in every market it serves.
Premier Bet’s “Boosted Odds” promotion — which increases football accumulator returns by up to 50% — is one of its most consistent features across all 17 markets, even as other promotional terms vary by country.
Games & Sports
Premier Bet offers a comprehensive sportsbook with live betting in all 17 markets, alongside a casino section covering slots and live dealer games in most countries.
Sports Betting
Deep local football league coverage is Premier Bet’s defining strength — the NBC Premier League (Tanzania), Zambia Super League, Ugandan Premier League, and equivalent local competitions in every market, alongside CAF competitions, AFCON, and major European leagues. Live betting with real-time in-play markets across all 17 countries.
Casino
Slots and live dealer games available in most markets, providing a secondary product alongside the core sportsbook offering.
Aviator & Crash Games
Crash games are available in the Premier Bet casino section across most of its 17 markets. As the platform’s primary focus is sports betting and deep local football coverage, players seeking a dedicated deep crash game catalog may prefer Betway or 1xBet, which carry more extensive Aviator and JetX selections in the markets where both operators overlap.
Bonuses & Promotions
Welcome Bonus by Country
New players receive a first deposit bonus in every Premier Bet market. Terms vary significantly by country and change frequently — check the Premier Bet site for your specific country before registering.
Boosted Odds Accumulators
Football accumulators with boosted odds can increase potential returns by up to 50% — this is the one consistent promotional feature across all 17 Premier Bet markets, making it the platform’s signature offer.
Deposits & Withdrawals
Payment methods are localised per market, with mobile money as the dominant rail across most of Premier Bet’s 17 countries.
- East Africa (Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda) — M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money
- West/Central Africa (Nigeria, Cameroon, Mali, Gabon, Chad, Guinea, Congo) — Orange Money, MTN MoMo, OPay
- Southern Africa (Zambia, Mozambique, Malawi) — Airtel Money, M-Pesa, TNM Mpamba
- Sierra Leone (mercurybet.com) — Orange Money, Africell Money
- Angola — Multicaixa, Bank Transfer
No cryptocurrency or international card payments across any market. KYC required before first withdrawal. No conversion fees within each local currency.
Mobile App & Experience
Premier Bet offers Android and iOS apps in most of its 17 markets, with full sportsbook and casino access. The platform is optimised for African mobile networks, with the app experience consistent across countries even where the brand name differs (rsbet.com, mercurybet.com).
Licence & Safety
Premier Bet operates under local licences or regional partner agreements in each of its 17 African markets, with oversight from Editec, the UK-headquartered parent company. The company maintains compliance with local gaming authority requirements in every country it serves.
SSL encryption on all transactions. Responsible gambling tools available in most markets. 18+ only across all countries. Always verify the current licence status for your specific country on the local Premier Bet site before registering.
