Welcome to Hollywoodbets
Hollywoodbets are arguably one of the most popular and well known bookies in South Africa. They not only have an online sportsbook but also a number of retail operations that seem to be doing very well. Their first branch was opened in 2000 and they now have an impressive 84 stores across South Africa.
As much as we like their retail stores we’re going to focus on Hollywoodbet’s massive online operation, so onto the Hollywoodbets review, where we’ll be looking at the most important features and offerings.
Hollywoodbets South Africa
The Hollywoodbets site can be somewhat underwhelming when you open it on desktop, the predominant colour is their branded purple and there are tabs and buttons everywhere. Once you’ve gotten over the purple shock you are left with a very deep reaching site that feels slightly out of date, but one packed with various betting options and menus.
We’re not sure why they have not decided to revamp their site and navigation yet, as it can be very difficult to find the markets you want. All of this is coming across as very critical and it partly is, with all the money at their disposal they could’ve built an amazing site or at least kept it up to date. We suspect there are other factors that involve their retail operation that affect this, as Hollywood are a fantastic business in general.

Hollywoodbets Mobile
We also had a look at the Hollywoodbets mobile website and found it to be a fantastic experience, making up for the poor one on desktop. The site caters for punters who might not have the best smartphones which is great as it makes mobile betting more accessible. You can upload your FICA documents, get an app for basic phones as well as check results. It’s one of the best mobile sites in South Africa for what it offers and we can see why it’s one of the most popular platforms used by punters.
