This is quite generous and attractive to prospective users. 

Multiple payment options on Sportsbook apps are a necessity to make deposits and withdrawals easier. As expected, Hollywoodbets allows users to deposit and withdraw directly from the app. I went through the payment methods available on the Hollywoodbets app, and honestly, I was a bit impressed.

The Hollywoodbets app is a sight to behold. It packs so much features and is highly efficient. The app is only available via the website, so there are no Google Play Store ratings for the app. As the app is also unavailable on iOS platform, there is no Apple App Store rating. However, Hollywoodbets' app is rated a disappointing 1.4/5 on one of the biggest ratings site, TRUST PILOT. 

Here are some users comments

Welstand Vriende Says: 

Stay away from them. I deposited 6k worth of vouchers, and they just blocked my account. Reasons only they know. Now I am being tossed around for my own money. Always a different story. Just stay away corrupt. Regardless of sending all the documents they asked. Stay away. 

Carl Steynvaard says: 

This seems like a great online betting and casino site at first, but after you win once, there are non ending dry spells with no wins day on end. I would steer clear if I was you because they definitely tweak the games. I have been playing online casino's for 15 years+ and as a software developer myself, I can see / compare to other sites. These guys are not playing fair

There are also some positive reviews on Hollywoodbets.

Linah Chauke says

Gambling never been this easy thank you hollywoodbet

Christian Tiede Also Had This To Say:

I've been betting with Hollywoodbets for over two years. Never had any problems. I made several withdrawals without any issues. Odds could be better. Nice promotions from time to time. I can just recommend this bookie.

YesPlay and World Sports Betting are some of the biggest competitors of Hollywoodbets in the South African betting market. The three bookmakers excel in different aspects of their offers and are weak in some areas. In the table below, I'll highlight some important features and which bookmakers offer them or not. 

Hollywoodbets is licensed and regulated by the provincial regulatory bodies in South Africa. The bookmaker has licenses from:

• Western Cape – licence number: 10000107-029.
• Gauteng – licence number: BRA-024. 
• Mpumalanga – licence number: 9-2-1-00051.
• Limpopo – licence number: - Book 007-LGB. 
• KwaZulu-Natal – licence number: BOM0092. 

Hollywoodbets encourages responsible gambling in a number of ways. They have a dedicated section to responsible gambling on their website as well as providing help such as self-exclusion to anyone suffering from excessive gambling. There are also limits and support resources provided by the bookmaker, which highlights how much they support users from gambling excessively. In terms of age restrictions Hollywoodbets does not allow anyone less than 18 years of age to gamble on their platform. 

There is no official information from Hollywoodbets on which features or upgrades to be added to their app in the future. So, to ensure that you are using the latest features and security updates, do update your app regularly.
