MessageBet takes sports and racing bets two ways. Use the bet slip on this site, or send the bet from your registered mobile on WhatsApp or Telegram. Either way, a bet stands only once we reply with an acceptance reference.

Message Betting
Your phone is the bet slip
Once your account is verified and funded, link your mobile number to WhatsApp or Telegram in My Account. Then send a bet request as a normal message. We reply with a price, you confirm, and we send back an acceptance with a bet reference.
A message on its own is not a bet
Your request becomes a bet only when our system replies to accept it. If you don't get an acceptance with a reference, nothing has been placed.
