Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by gabng(m): 8:22pm On Dec 26, 2005 |
Great Business Idea: Anyone Want To Be A Part Of It? I have been taking interest in this forum for about a month now and I feel this is the right place to bring this idea up with the belief that like minds will be interested in being part of somethin new and exciting. I am talking about a Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal (ScoreCard Nigeria) where an average football fan can purchase a scratchcard and make predictions of football matches in the local league, premier league and other international league and at the end there stand the chance to win b]money[/b]. Also the ability to make prediction entries via mobile phones (SMS) via an SMS gateway to the portal will be needed. Anybody ready to make this work? With a place like this on Nairaland full of geniuses, it's an under-estimation. I am waiting guys. |

Scratch card would be capital intensive, besides nationwide distribution. Its a beautiful model but there are a lot of things we are missing, running a betting site, is not as easy as it sounds, if you have about 100,000 betters for example. |

How far with your plans? |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by gabng(m): 5:57pm On Mar 25, 2007 |
Nothin Yet. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by mrmayor(m): 11:16pm On Mar 25, 2007 |
I wondering if you as a bookmaker have real shops,where people can go for betting.To be a successful bookmaker you need loads of cash to back you when the unexpected happens, I mean when the result go against the bookmaker. I use only bookmakers with real shops like www.paddypower.ie, www.ladbrokes.com or www.bet365.com. the fact is I don't trust bookmakers with only on-line presence. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by akinalabi(m): 11:23pm On Mar 25, 2007 |
Don't steal "my idea" I've been working on this for quite sometime. I've had some technical hitches here and there but I hope to be in operation in a few months. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by Seun(m): 7:48am On Mar 26, 2007 |
Oh, come on, akinlabi. You can't possibly believe that you are the first to come up with this simple idea. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by akinalabi(m): 3:49pm On Mar 27, 2007 |
Seun: Don't mind me jare. I just sat down hoping no one would think about it until I'm done with it. Anyway, this can only make me move faster than I'd planned. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by Seun(m): 3:58pm On Mar 27, 2007 |
How do you plan to deal with the perception that gambling is immoral and a social vice? |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by sisimose(f): 4:05pm On Mar 27, 2007 |
i dont think he has to deal with that at all seun. Those who gamble will gamble those who dont wont. those with moral issues or otherwise are very few, to be honest i know many moslems and christains who are hard core gamblers, so if he want this as a business, he doesnt have to deal with any moral issue after all we not in saudi Arabia |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by Seun(m): 4:41pm On Mar 27, 2007 |
Hmmm. But if your gambling service becomes successful, some people may call for it to be banned or "regulated". |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by akinalabi(m): 12:53am On Mar 28, 2007 |
People's perception? Why should I care? I want to run a business and think about people's perception? As long as I run it legally then I don't care what some people may think. Some people frown at drinking. Will that stop me from trying to set up a brewery if I want? Not a chance! Personally, I don't see sports betting as bad so I don't have to deal with the issue of personal consience (did I spell that right? ) I've even done it today. I had Brazil to beat Ghana at 4/6 |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by sisimose(f): 10:44pm On Mar 28, 2007 |
my point exactly Akin how much you bet? , was it just a fun bet? crappy odds you got there |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by akinalabi(m): 2:35am On Mar 29, 2007 |
Hi sisimose, Brazil to beat Ghana at 4/6 is decent enough. I had 60 quid on it. I used my online account at coral.co.uk What do you reckon? |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by sisimose(f): 11:04pm On Mar 29, 2007 |
@Akin hmm you bet 4/6 @60 quid so that means you win 100quid(watever ur currency is) hmm not bad, not great either corals those thieving buggers, but they have good odds |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by cammax7(m): 10:44am On Mar 30, 2007 |
I've actually thought of something in this line before but my idea was to work with a bank. The scratch card idea might be flawed in terms of availability. Partner with a bank on this where people would open a special account for this purpose and send predictions via SMS and indicate the amount the are staking which would be withdrawn from their account and when they win, would be credited to their account. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by cammax7(m): 10:47am On Mar 30, 2007 |
jeez i cant believe this topic had been on since 2005 |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by mrmayor(m): 6:31pm On Apr 09, 2007 |
sisimose: Nope, its means he wins 40 quid and gets his original 60 quids back. Just curious I don't think any bookmake would offer 4/6 brazil to win except they know something we don't know it also means that the odds for Ghana to win would be atleast 3/1 |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by akinalabi(m): 10:14pm On Apr 09, 2007 |
Coral did offer 4/6 on Brazil to beat Ghana. Not only coral. Even ladbrokes and william hill. I can't remember what they had on Ghana. |
Re: Soccer Bookmaking Web Portal: Great Business Idea by lare: 3:00pm On Feb 22, 2009 |
mrmayor: Bet365 dont have shops. They are 100% online. |
