LiveScore Bet App Review & Download Guide For Nigerian Users (2024)

LiveScore Bet is steadily growing among Nigerian punters, which has left many searching for the bookmakers’ app for more convenient betting. The good news is that LiveScore Bet has two highly-rated apps for iOS and Android users. So I tested both apps to see if they live up to their reputation.

In this review, I’ll explain why the bookmakers' app is great for Nigerians, its top features, how it compares to the site, and how customers can download both apps.

Lucky for us, Livescore Bets has a native app for both iOS and Android, which provides a smoother betting experience and is easier to download and maintain with updates. I downloaded the Livescore Bet app on both devices and will detail my experience in steps and include screenshots.

Downloading the Livescore Bet app on iOS involves only two steps, and takes about two minutes.

How to download LiveScore Bet app latest version – System requirements

The iOS app is significantly larger than other bookmaker apps, so you may need to clear some space before downloading it. As both apps exist on their native app stores, unlike APKs, you won’t need to change app download permission settings on your devices.

First experience using the LiveScore Bet app

After testing and placing bets on the Livescore Bets app across three days, I understood why the bookmakers’ app has a high rating of 4.4/5 on the Apple Store and 3.9/5 on Google’s Play Store. Firstly, the app design is superb, using only 2-3 highly contrasting colours and proper spacing for all widgets to provide an excellent betting experience similar to the Betano app.

Usability is another area where the Livescore Bet app excels. Every page is interlinked, meaning you can “access everywhere from anywhere” without having to go back and forth. And there are zero problems locating specific sections or features. The only major area of improvement for me would be the inclusion of a search bar functionality to make browsing on the app easier.

New users should note that the live streaming feature and Squads games on Livescore Bets aren’t accessible without logging in, so ensure to create an account before testing the bookmaker’s services. Remember to include our Livescore Bet bonus code during registration so you won’t miss out on the exclusive 100% free bet bonus.

Features of the LiveScore Bet app that Nigerian players love

Live Streaming

It’s no surprise that Livescore Bets has great live streaming coverage when you remember the bookmaker started as a sports stat and live match checker website. They have so much live coverage of games that the bookie created a special live-streaming page where you can see and bet on all the games available streaming. I watched a few live games, and the experience was better than Sportybet and matched Stake in terms of streaming quality and speed.

Cashout

Cash-out is possibly the most desired betting feature among bettors, so its availability on the Livescore bets apps is another selling point for the bookie. Without cashouts, many bettors would make significantly less returns on the bets. Additionally, cashout can allow us to make corrections on already-placed bets.

In this ticket (see image above), you’ll see that LiveScore Bets allows me to cash out 95% of my stake on the bet, allowing me to make corrections with only a 5% loss of my stake. Bettors commonly make errors in their bet slips, so this feature is extremely helpful.

All pre-match and in-play matches on the LiveScore Bets app are eligible for cashout unless the betting market is currently suspended. You can access the feature from the “My Bets” page.

Bet Builder

The range of betting markets on LiveScore Bets isn’t the most impressive, so the bookmakers’ bet builder functionality is one of its best features for me. I love bet builders for the following reasons:

1. They allow me to derive more value from fewer games through complex combinations.
2. They allow me to create “same game parlays” for my favourite matches.
3. It can reduce risk by reducing the number of different match events you play

Here’s an example Bet Builder bet I placed on Betano, showing how the feature can be immensely beneficial to bettors.

Soccer is my favourite sport, and Man City vs Liverpool is my second-best fixture, next only to Real Madrid vs Barcelona in the last 5-6 years. I’ve watched their last five Premier League fixtures in a row and at least seven of the last ten games they’ve played. And when these two teams meet, it’s always a spectacle yet often predictable.

If you check their last ten games against each other, the betting markets in this bet slip almost always win. In fact, this same ticket would have won in the second leg, but Liverpool just failed to get at least one corner in the first half despite being at home and getting seven corners in the second half.

As you can see, bet builders offer more value from a single game while allowing punters like me to take advantage of our deeper knowledge of a sport, tournament, or event.

On Livescore Bet, you get access to the same betting markets and even some options that aren’t usually allowed in bet builders like the Half Time/ Full Time market.

Easy payments

Making payments on the Livescore Bet app is surprisingly easy. You can make payments through popular methods like Flutterwave and Paystack without leaving the app. Other convenient payment methods for Nigerians using this bookmaker include:

• USSD Transfer
• OPay
• Quickteller
• Interswitch WebPay
• Interswitch PayDirect
• Flutterwave
• Paystack

The only withdrawal method available on the app is Bank Transfer, but that shouldn’t be a problem for most bettors as the bookie covers all banks across the country.

In-app live match tracker

The betting company that owns LiveScore Bets also runs the famous sports statistic and live match tracking site (LiveScore.com), so naturally, the bookmaker offers more live match tracking coverage for less-popular match events across different sports when you compare its major competitors.

I found LiveScoreBet’s in-app live match tracker more convenient as you can minimise the tracker and pin it to the screen so it displays on every page you enter. The result is superior live-match tracking, where you can monitor a bet while performing other actions on the site (as seen in the image below.)

LiveScore Bet app vs Mobile Vs Desktop: Comparison

The Experts’ Verdict: I’m more of a desktop guy, but the Livescore Bets app might be one of the only bookmaker apps I prefer to use despite having a smaller space to work with.

LiveScoreBet app not working – Here’s what to do

So far, the Livescore Bet app hasn’t given me any issues. The app loaded quickly, and all the features were working fine. However, some users have raised some issues that even the bookmakers have taken note of, such as:

• Live streaming problems: LiveScore Bet has admitted some issues using their live streaming on the app. To resolve the problem, the bookmaker recommends clearing your cache, using a different wifi or data connection, or using a different device.
• App loading issues: If you suddenly experience problems with loading the app, LiveScore Bets recommends the following solutions:
  1. Use Wi-Fi.
  2. Force close the app and then reopen.
  3. Clear your cache.
  4. Turn off your device.
  5. Uninstall and then reinstall the app.
  6. Update the app.

Customer services on the LiveScore Bet app

LiveScore Bets app offers customer support through all the channels, including:

• Live chat
• Email
• Phone call
• Social media

Currently, there’s no human live chat support, but the bot has answers for most questions you might have. If your problem is still unresolved, the bot will create a support and send it to a human representative who’ll contact you through email or phone.

But I did test the bookie’s email response time, and it was within 20 minutes after I sent the message.

Should you download the LiveScore Bet app?

There are two major reasons why you’d want to download the LiveScore Bets app. One would be if you enjoy the bookmakers’ services and want a superior betting experience with the mobile app. The second reason is if you’re looking for a live-streaming betting app with extensive coverage. Even if you don’t like Livescore Bets, the app’s live-streaming feature is enough to keep the app on hand for midweek and weekend games.

Honestly, there’s not much the app could improve as the design, usability, and features are exceptional compared to other bookmakers. I would like to see a human live chat integration, but resolving issues isn’t something we punters do daily.
