  • The betting site is offering a Cut-One Insurance, on a placed Football Multiple Bet – 500% of your initial stake
  • Certain terms and conditions apply for the same

betfarm cut-one insurance offer

At the time of writing, Betfarm is offering just the one sport-related promotional offer. The betting site is offering a Cut-One Insurance – 500% of your initial stake. Certain terms and conditions apply for the same. You must place a Football Multiple Bet, with 15 or more selections.

These are the markets that you can punt on – Match Result (1X2), Correct Score, Last Goal Scorer, First Goal Scorer, and Anytime Goal Scorer. It must be noted that each individual selection must bear odds of 1.6 or more. If one of these selections cuts, Betfarm will pay you 500% of your initial stake.

For example, if you wager a 1,000 NGN Football Multiple Bet, while fulfilling the above-mentioned criteria, in the quest of winning 25,000 NGN, and if one of your selections results in a loss, Betfarm will pay you 5,000 NGN, as compensation.
Betfarm is offering a Casino-related promotional offer as well, at the time of writing. We hope that the betting site offers more sport-related promotional offers, in the near future.

 

VIP Program

At the time of writing, Betfarm is not offering a VIP Program, or a Loyalty Reward System. Given the importance of such schemes, when it comes to attracting, and retaining loyal customers, and Betfarm’s standing in the Nigerian betting industry, we hope that Betfarm offers a VIP Program sooner, rather than later.

Pre-match offer


  • At the time of writing, Betfarm is offering odds on over 15 sports
  • Betfarm is offering a competitive nature of odds, coupled with active sports markets
  • The minimum stake that you can place on a Sports market of your choice, is 100 NGN. The maximum stake amount though, varies from market-to-market, and depends on the odds that you are backing, and the number of selections that you have made

betfarm pre-match betting

At the time of writing, Betfarm is offering odds on over 15 sports. The betting site is offering odds on popular sports like Football and Tennis, as well as unique sports markets like Futsal, and Snooker, among other options. This ensures that punters of all kinds, have a sports market to their liking.

The minimum stake that you can place on a Sports market of your choice, is 100 NGN. The maximum stake amount though, varies from market-to-market, and depends on the odds that you are backing, and the number of selections that you have made.

That being said, you must perform your due diligence at all times, and look to place a bet on a betting site, which is offering the best odds for a bet that you may want to place – Even if this means betting on a site other than Betfarm.

You must calculate the bookmaker’s margin for a betting variant that you want to place a bet on as well. As may already be known, bookmaker’s margin is the margin of profit that a betting site charges over you. You should look to place a bet on betting variants with a margin nearer to the 100% mark (Ideal market mark).

Steer clear of placing bets on betting variants with a margin which touches, or exceeds the 110% mark. To determine the bookmaker’s margin for a betting variant, you must calculate its Odds Overround. The Odds Overround for a betting variant, can be calculated by converting the fractional odds of each outcome of a betting variant, into the decimal form.

Divide each of these outcomes by 100, and add the resulting numbers together. With the help of the resultant number, you can determine the bookmaker’s margin for a betting variant in question. We determined the Odds Overround for a match to be contested in the Australian: A-League, to determine the quality of the odds on offer at Betfarm.

The Odds Overround were found to be 106.75, which indicates that Betfarm is offering a competitive nature of odds, coupled with active sports markets.

 

Esports

Esports have gathered momentum up late, and is of no real surprise that many gamers are earning a living off playing their favourite Esports! Several local, and international-based Esports tournaments take place on an annual basis.
Betfarm is offering odds on several Esports-based markets, including the likes of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2, and League of Legends.

You must keep in mind, that performing due research is of the essence. Back an Esports-based team, or player, with a proven track record of winning.
The minimum stake that you can place on an Esports market of your choice, is 100 NGN. The maximum stake amount though, varies from market-to-market, and depends on the odds that you are backing, and the number of selections that you have made

 

Other Specials

At the time of writing, Betfarm is offering odds on Politics-based markets, and Other Specials.

When it comes to Politics-based markets, Betfarm is offering odds on the Winner of the US Presidential Election 2020, the Next (UK) Prime Minister, and the Australian Federal Election, among other options.

When it comes to Other Specials, Betfarm is offering odds on The Nobel Prize – The Nobel Peace Prize 2020, Space Specials, and Rap Battle, among other options.

The minimum stake that you can place on a Special market of your choice, is 100 NGN. The maximum stake amount though, varies from market-to-market, and depends on the odds that you are backing, and the number of selections that you have made

 

Cash Out and Bet Builder

At the time of writing, while Betfarm is offering Cash Out, the betting site is not offering Bet Builder. Given the extravagance of betting options that Bet Builder is associated with, it is rather disappointing that Betfarm is not offering an option to build a bet via Bet Builder.

We hope that the betting site offers Bet Builder in the near future.

That being said, Cash Out is a wonderful feature. Cash Out in essence, allows you to retrieve partial winnings on a placed bet, if you have already won a bet, in due course of an in-play match, or if you feel that you could go on to lose a placed bet.

The amount of money retrieved via Cash Out, depends on the odds in favour of your backed selection/selections, and the exact time of Cashing Out – You could end up winning more or less than your initially placed stake.

Summary


Betfarm is one of the best betting platforms on offer, in Nigeria. Having gone through each of Betfarm’s features, we have come to the conclusion that Betfarm may just be the perfect option for you. Yes, the betting does come with a fair share of flaws, but Betfarm serves its purpose with pomp – The betting site is offering an excellent live betting arena, with a number of markets on offer.

Let’s start things off, by listing out the betting site’s flaws. The betting site’s minimum withdrawal amount is quite high to be frank – 5,000 NGN. Betfarm is offering just the one sport-related promotional offer at the time of writing. The betting site is not offering a VIP program, or a Loyalty Reward System as well.

Betfarm is not offering Bet Builder. While the betting site is offering a live streaming service, it is not out of the top drawer, and live streaming often lags. While Betfarm has advertised 24/7 customer support service, it does not offer the same.

With that, let’s get to the betting site’s advantages. Betfarm is secure, and licensed. The betting site comes with an excellent live betting arena, complete with a “Results” section, and a number of statistics on offer.

The betting site is offering a complete set of welcome offer bonuses (Two) – Perfect to appease the stingiest of punters. Betfarm is offering a number of safe gambling options as well. The betting site is offering separate apps for its Sportsbook, Casino, and Poker offerings, each of which comes with excellent features.

While Betfarm does come with obvious flaws, if you are looking for a betting site with a number of sports-related markets to punt on, and an enticing live betting offer, look no further than Betfarm.
