The three options will be used, again – MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, Shops and USSD.

For shop cash, you’ll first have to initiate the withdrawal from your account. Click on profile and select withdraw from the drop-down list.

Select Shop Cash, enter the amount you want to withdraw and confirm password. This is the password that unlocks your account.

Once you have completed the process and amount deducted from your account, you will receive a transfer code in your SMS.

To withdraw directly to your mobile money wallet, select the respective MTN Mobile Money or Airtel Mobile Money option from the payment method using the same formula used to withdraw via the Shop in the paragraph above.

Enter amount and password and click Start Withdraw process. The money will be credited as fast as that.

The USSD has a slightly different method. If the account was registered using Airtel Uganda number, then you can only use this method to withdraw to MTN Uganda and vice versa.

To withdraw via MTN from an Airtel registered account, tap on USSD in the payment method drop-down list; enter the amount to withdraw and your account password in the boxes provided and start the withdraw process.

A message will be sent to your phone with a code.

Once received, dial *165*4*6*6# on your phone then;

Airtel Mobile Money and MTN Mobile Money allow up to a maximum of Ushs. 7,000,000 in daily transactions and Ushs. 20,000,000 account balance.

However, a Gal sport betting winner can withdraw up to the Ushs. 550,000,000 winnings from the Shop Cash centres all at once after notifying the company.

Sportsbook review

Gal sport betting is a truly industry leader in Uganda. The famous yellow and blue colorfully raises your moods way before you even think of the odds and a plethora of betting options on offer just for you.

Gals has set themselves apart from the rest with the number of sports and games offered. The bookie offers tens of options for their football-mad punters but the rest are sorted as well. Basketball, Tennis, Mixed Martial Arts, baseball, boxing, rugby and Ice Hockey are all offered.

The others include snooker, table tennis, water polo, cricket, futsal, handball and volleyball.

Three of them – football, basketball and tennis – have options for betting on live events from most of their selection.

And the customers can select as many events and are allowed to mix from the different sports as long as the maximum payout does not exceed Ushs.550 million.

Gals beats close competitors like betPawa in the variety it offers for combos like goals and full/half time results, double chances and goals etc.

Gal sport betting also offers enhanced competitive odds compared to several other competitors. (See Brentford vs Chelsea odds below)

On top of everything, Gal sport betting offers bets on local and regional leagues creating even more excitement with the local fans. In a good way, this has also helped grow the interest of its local customers and a few foreign ones who search for news regarding the different teams to be informed while placing their bets.

The website is easy to navigate both on phone and app with a quick and easy deposit and withdrawal option allowing a customer to place his predictions in time. However, the company needs to improve on the speed of live in-play options that sometimes take long to accept or even reject in other instances without valid reasons.

Juicy jackpot

Gals has one of the most consistent and juicy jackpot in the Uganda Sports betting market.

The jackpot allows one to pick a three-way-outcomes from the 17 matches that have been selected per round. Missed the jackpot by a few, don’t worry for with Gals when you aim at the moon, you may falter but as well fall for the stars.

The bookie offers prizes for punters who miss the jackpot by at most four picks. There are progressive prizes from 13 correct picks and upwards. The jackpot is worthy Shs.200, 000,000 at a price of just shs.100 ONLY! A player can actually opt for a pick-13 where you go for the shs. 10,000,000 prize for 13 selections. Again, when you miss the 13, prizes are offered for at least ten correct picks!

Excellent customer care

Any challenges encountered at Gals are easily addressed. Their customer care service easily wins my five-star rating. They’re always a click away with their toll free line [Toll Free: 0800 334 455 ] always ready to pick a distress call with a blink of an eye. Their chat option is relatively fast as the email follows in the pecking order but if the call is your first option, you won’t bother reaching there. It takes less than a minute to receive feedback from the chat after the automatic Bot reply.

And if that is not enough care, Gal sport betting offers free fixtures for customers to peruse through when offline.

Local brand

Gal sport betting physical cash shops are limited to main towns and Kampala City. However, their excellent customer care covers for that especially that they have agents who are flexible with the main local languages.

The company employs quite a number of Ugandans and as mentioned earlier, even their ambassador resonates well with the local and foreign punters.

Quick

The website and app are just simple and user-friendly. The layout is organized in a way that the favourite football leagues come first and in the middle of the page while the main self-help functional tabs are placed at the top. The bonus and other offers flash across the screen to keep the customer up-to-date with the new developments.

It takes about three to five seconds to place a normal bet on the screen and has an option to place multiple bets by selecting and booking the bets to be placed later.

The site also highlights the popular bets with their odds to help a customer who is in a rush to do a quick selection.

What’s even more interesting is that Gal sport betting has a variety of bonus offers every week. Currently there is the Aviator game that has become very famous with gamers.

Aviator, a game that brings out the best of skills and luck, allows the gamers a big chance to cash in by

To play, the customer places a game bet at the start of the round. Then the plane will take off and a multiplier will be flashed on the screen.

Gals, A better place
Why Gals

The easy-to-use website and user-friendly mobile application makes Gals tick over websites like Ababet and Premier Bet. Their wide variety of sporting events makes Gal sport betting every bettor’s first choice in the market. Their variety of combos allow the players an easier option for example, when a punter is split between giving Bayern Munich a win or bet on goals (over 2.5), Gals gives a combo with enhanced odds. Their withdrawal and deposit system is seamless reducing the time and stress in transacting.

 However, other competitors like betPawa beat them on the maximum payout which is limitless on their platforms. This reason could be the only one that one can base on to overlook Gals otherwise, it easily passes as the best Sports betting website in Uganda.
