If you are in Nigeria and are looking for Naira online football betting, you can
do so at a number of State-sponsored online sportsbooks. However there are several
reasons why you may want to avoid them. One) none of the main sportsbook banking
methods like Skrill or NETELLER offer Naira Balances. While NETELLER allows Nigerian
customers, you would need to have a balance in another currency. Two) If you want
to bet in the Naira, you’ll need to fund your account with a source that is likely
charged fees in excess of any currency exchange fee you might incur. Fees in Nigeria
to fund your betting account can exceed 8%, where most currency exchange fees amount
to 2% to 5% of the exchanged balance. So in other words, it is both cheaper and
more convenient to have a betting account with a top international online sportsbook,
in another currency and bank using a convenient method like an e-wallet or prepaid
solution.
Three) When you bet with a reputable international sportsbook, the odds pay better
on your bets, you get lower bet minimums and higher maximums. At Nigerian Naira sites,
minimums are relatively high and a maximum win limit is only about 5,000 US dollars.
Those listed below all have maximums at least 20 times higher, most, much higher
limits.
Lastly, check the terms and conditions of the Nigerian-based betting site you are
considering. They all have clauses that allow them to essentially cancel your winning
bet for any reason. While they would not make this a regular practise, the clause
exists to protect themselves if they do a poor job in handicapping a particular result.
No legitimate sportsbook uses clauses like this to punish you for a win in order
to protect themselves. All the sportsbooks listed below accept Nigerian customers,
