888STARZ is one to watch for Botswanan bettors, bringing great sportsbook coverage, exciting casino experience and advanced payment options all in the same location. Bittech B.V. owns the platform and live odds are available, as well as mobile compatibility and multi-tiered promotions designed to satisfy new players and high-stakes players.
Registration & Verification
Signing up is a breeze. Players can register via Email, Phone, One-Click, or Socials, and select Botswana and their city. After completing a short form with basic details and agreeing to our Terms & Conditions, they can verify their account by uploading ID and address proof via My Account → KYC. Once the documents clear (usually within 24 hours), full deposit and withdrawal capability is activated, including high-limit crypto cash-outs.
Sportsbook Overview
Desktop design of the sportsbook shows all upcoming and live matches in distinct panels. Over 70 sports are offered: football leagues (EPL, Botswana Premier League, CAF Champions League), rugby, ice hockey, cricket, tennis, basketball and others. A dedicated esports section features markets on League of Legends, Dota 2, CS2, Valorant, and Rainbow Six Siege.
Markets & Odds
- Pre-Match & Live: They both operate in real-time, powered by a high-frequency engine.
- Filters: Top Events, Live vs. Prematch, Over/Under, Asian Handicap, Both Teams To Score, First Scorer and “Next Goal.”
- Specials: Halftime correct score, total corners, goal-timing bets and even “Next Substitution” props.
- Cash-Out & Turbo Bet: Partial cash-out on singles bets; turbo features to resolve accas in-play.
Example: When we placed a “Next Goal” bet on a Zimbabwe Premier Soccer League match at 2.20×, we are treated to dynamically evolving odds with play. That is without page reloads—the kind of fluid experience that differentiates new platforms from venerable clones.
Casino & Live Casino
Slots Lobby
More than 1,000 titles fill the slots lobby, arranged in carousels—Top 888STARZ (“Space Coins,” “Thunder Coins XXL”), New Releases (“Rise of Eris,” “Astronaut”), Popular (Megaways classics, branded hits) and All. Providers span heavyweights (Evolution, Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Red Tiger) and niche studios (Mancala Gaming, Aviatrix, One Touch). Features include adjustable RTP filters and favorites tagging, so players can quickly revisit high-volatility faves or low-variance staples.
Drop & Win Events
Daily prize pools on “Gates of Olympus 1000” and “Big Bass Bonanza Megaways” keep the action lively, with random bonus drops awarding cash prizes to active players. These mechanics turn a routine spin session into a potential windfall, adding a social element via on-screen leaderboards.
Live Dealer
The live-casino section hosts multiple studios: Evolution’s Lightning Roulette and Infinite Blackjack, Pragmatic Play’s Sweet Bonanza Candyland and Ezugi’s Football Auto Roulette. Table limits range from BWP 0.10 per spin/hand to BWP 1 000+, accommodating cautious newcomers and VIP high-rollers.
