The multi-billion betting industry is rapidly growing worldwide, and in Africa, more and more sports lovers have joined the industry hoping to become lucky – for instance, at the ongoing Russia 2018 World Cup. In Rwanda, PremierBet Company is the biggest, it has been around since 2012 and has grown immensely over the past five-and-a-half years. The company provides entertainment for people aged over 18 to play Sports Betting and Virtual Products, all of which give Rwandans the chance to add extra spice to their football viewing and to turn their loose change into bigger winnings. The Chief Executive Officer of PremierBet Rwanda, Rayan N., finds the Premier Bet shops as “a unique place to be, have fun and get entertained while making a fortune.” He further added that the company has a range of games for people to play, including virtual games and a ”Super Jackpot Joy.” Someone reading this may ask, ‘but do people actually win?’ The answer is YES! This was shown in recent months when a Premier Bet customer won 9 million francs playing the Global Jackpot Joy in the company’s Kabarondo shop. PremierBet’s track of record in terms of paying the winning amount has been unparalleled as compared to all the other market players. Over the years, PremierBet has hardly disputed any payment against winning and won over the trust of millions of people across the country as a TRUSTED betting partner. The Global Jackpot Joy is taken from a pool of money from Premier Bet operations across 22 countries in Africa. Another fact you may not know is that the company operates across the continent and is an established organization in different nations, including; Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania, Cameroon and DR Congo to mention a few. When asked how Premier Bet benefits Africa and Africans, the Chief Executive explained that the company employs thousands of Africans across the continent and provides them with a safe and stable career path. He also emphasized that the business is people-centered. “In Rwanda alone, we employee between 750 and 1000 people. Our employees are all Rwandese, which gives us the chance to give back to the amazing communities we work in. The same is true for Premier Bet in other African nations and it’s a source of pride for me to say that we are supplying good quality jobs for thousands of people.” Now that you know a bit more about PremierBet Rwanda, why not look out for their 150 shops across the nation and try your luck. One of the lucky winners Olivier Rugamba in his interview with Times Sport, he excitedly explained that he won and got paid in less than 10mn an amount of Rwf 9,385,500 in horse racing from Rwf 200 that he used to bet. “I started betting in 2010 with different betting companies in Rwanda, but I discovered that with Premier Bet, it’s a whole different experience. With as little as Rwf 200, possibilities of what you can win are limitless,” said Rugamba. After hitting the jackpot from Premier Bet, his life transformed. From an MTN agent in Kabarondo, Eastern Province, Rugamba is now a striving businessman in Kigali.
