AFFILIATE New system aims to place bets
A new betting concierge service has launched that allows gamblers to access the best odds from all international bookmaking operators without the need for multiple bet- ting accounts. Called Bet Butler, the site uses state-of-the-art search-engine tech- nology, providing gamblers with a far simpler betting experience. Bet Butler’s technology sources the most up-to-date odds at a touch of the button, but unlike traditional odds comparison services, places customers’ bets directly. The soft- ware automatically executes client betting orders at whichever of sixty bookmaking op- erators worldwide is showing the most com- petitive price. The service offers bets on any
sports via the telephone and football and horse racing online at
www.betbutler.co.uk. Managing director Toby Denne said: “Bet Butler is combining three of the big wins on the web to give sports fans an unparalleled betting experience: betting, price compari- son, and search. Forget the frustrations of scanning the internet for the best odds and being forced into using multiple betting ac- counts to place a stake. Today’s world is about fast-paced technology where gam- blers want access to the best odds at a touch of the button. With Bet Butler’s launch, the age of multiple betting accounts is history: this service is ‘any bet, any value, anywhere’.”
