Nothing beats a solid group chat and we’ve found a new app that will enable you to catch up with your mates over the football without having to schlep to the pub.
A popular bookie app has launched a new ‘Snapchat-style’ feature that enables users to bet on Premier League matches with their pals - and it's set tongues wagging.
So, how does it work?
Getting involved is simple. Once you have chosen your team, you will form a group chat to make betting selections together. You can also choose your own individual stake amounts if preferred. The more players that join the bet, the higher the odds will be boosted.
Winners are distributed based on the stake amount, but players can cash out individually whenever they want without impacting the rest of the group’s bet.
The new feature has gone down a treat with footie fans too. One review reads, “Hands down the best sports betting app I’ve come across! The interface is sleek and user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through different sports and betting options. I love the live betting feature, which keeps things exciting during games, and the odds are always competitive.”
Another agreed, as they raved: “The app offers a bit of a twist on betting with your mates, as you can set up a bet and get them to contribute to the bet too, whether by adding matches to an acca or just by chipping in their own stake and sharing in any winnings.”
“Being able to place bets with family or friends and having the choice of everyone to decide what teams you want to win is fantastic,” a third wrote. “This new concept is refreshing to the sports betting scene and a welcomed change.”
So, where can you download the app and what are the perks?
