Sports betting goes virtual
Supreme Ventures Limited, through the brand JustBet, has been making strides in becoming the preferred brand for sports betting, for both regular punters and novices alike.
Wagering on international sports such as football, basketball, cricket and American football has become a habit for many sports fans as the fixtures of the various leagues run throughout the year. These fixed-odds betting options benefit from the sportsman who is trying his hand at wagering and the seasoned bettor who sees a new, more predictable game for his valued betting dollar.
Live international sporting events have only a few games scheduled on particular days and only during the respective seasons. This restricts the content available for sports betting fans and does not provide many options and continuity that bettors generally prefer. Supreme Ventures prides itself in continuously responding to the needs of its potential and existing customers and as such saw an opportunity to enhance its customer experience by filling this content gap.
On January 14, 2016 Supreme Ventures launched its virtual sports betting product branded ‘Quick Sports’ in 10 pilot locations. The product is now available to existing and potential customers at 50 JustBet locations island wide. Expansion of the network will see placement in locations such as bars, barber shops, car washes and other sites of social engagement.
Quick Sports virtual football matches and horse races allow for five minutes of betting time per event, followed by 2-3 minutes of actual game time. There are nine betting types offered on football and seven betting options on horse racing. The minimum bet on each betting type is $20. The events run on a daily schedule starting at 7:00 am up to 2:00 am. Matches, races and odds are displayed using computer- animated 3D graphics on a two dedicated TV monitors inside select agent locations. Winnings are available for payment to customers at the end of each event, which provides the benefit of instant gratification. Currently, horse racing and football are the two virtual games in play, however, the game portfolio will be expanded with more sports in the latter part of the 2016 calendar.
The thrust behind the introduction of this product is the creation of a new social space gaming concept which Supreme Ventures is pioneering through innovation. The locations offering virtual betting will become an exciting and complete entertainment destination. The atmosphere created by the continuous and varied gaming options coupled with food, drinks, excitement and top-quality customer service will be electric.
This format of gaming is simple and can become familiar with ease. From the smallest wager to the big gamble, there is a game waiting for you to come try your luck and skills. Groups and friends can choose opposing wagers to test sporting knowledge or just their pure luck.
In a market with fewer innovative options, the people need more engaging and thrilling entertainment. Supreme Ventures and virtual betting will definitely fill the void and open up new and exciting possibilities. Quick Sports was slated to be officially launched to the public yesterday at Supreme Ventures flagship store, State Mall, Crossroads from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm.
