A new dot com that aims to be the world’s largest eGaming rewards club for people who enjoy the pastime of playing casino games, poker, backing the football, horses and even eSports. BetSavvy.club is free to join and passes money, that would otherwise be spent on advertising, back to its members every month, a little bit like a co-operative.
Co-founder Nick Aldrich said, “The idea behind BetSavvy is that the club provides its members with rewards and benefits for doing what they would do anyway. Members can earn real cash by referring their friends to join the club and the rewards go three tiers deep so members benefit from referrals made from the people who they have referred a well. The club receives commissions from the gambling companies for sending them traffic and we pass this back to our members, after the costs of running the club. Meaning members don’t just enjoy a one off benefit they receive real cash rewards every month.”
Nick continued, “The club partners with hundreds of global betting providers and this means we pass on great offers and bonuses directly to our members. So rather than hunting the web for the latest best sign up deals or free offers, the club finds them for you. Basically, whether you enjoy the occasional bet online or you are serious poker player, there is no reason not to join the club.”
