The odds board
The bookmaker keeps a cut of every slip. Here is how big it is.
A welcome offer arrives once and is gone. The margin built into a book's prices is charged on the first slip, the four hundredth and every one after that. So this publication starts from the prices themselves, computes what each book gives back on a cedi of turnover, and refuses to rank a book whose price nobody can see.
Best price on the board
BetFox gives back 96.0% of a cedi staked, from a margin of 4.21% on 8 of its own published prices.
Spread across the board
Between BetFox and Betway, the widest figure here. Both ends need reading with their basis: Betway's rests on 2 prices from a third party, because its own site served none.
Spread you can trust
Across the four books measured the same way, on thirty or more of their own current prices. betPawa is sharpest of those and 1xBet the dearest.
The board
A board about price only ranks books whose price we could compute from published odds. A casino has no price to compare, and a book that publishes none cannot be judged on it.
That admits eight of the thirteen brands trading in Ghana. The order below is the full model, not the price column alone.

Every book here answered all six criteria in the model, so no score on this table is an average over a partial record. The board column runs to ten; the percentage is the book's own price and runs to a hundred.
The two orderings do not agree, and that is the point
Sorted by price alone, BetFox leads. Sorted by the whole model, betPawa does, on 7.2 out of ten. Nothing has been fudged: the price carries 20 points of 100 and the size of a welcome offer carries 8, which is the ratio this publication was built on.
What the other eighty points buy is the ability to use the price. A book that publishes no phone number, holds one licence rather than two, or states no withdrawal time is charging you in a currency the margin column cannot see. So both orderings are published, on the same page, from the same figures.
Where the margin actually lives
Choosing a cheaper book is the smaller of the two decisions. Three of the books on this board published enough of their own prices to break down by competition, and all three charge far less on top-flight European football than on the leagues below it or on club friendlies. The gap inside a single book is wider than the gap between any two books on this page, which means what you bet on moves the price more than who you bet with.
The five books with no row
A board about price cannot rank a book whose price nobody publishes, and pretending otherwise would put a brand at the top of this page on the strength of everything except the one thing the page is about. Each of these has a review; none has a number.
- Premier Bet runs a sportsbook whose prices could not be read, so no margin exists on file.
- MSport runs a sportsbook whose prices could not be read, so no margin exists on file.
- Bangbet runs a sportsbook whose prices could not be read, so no margin exists on file.
- Melbet runs a sportsbook whose prices could not be read, so no margin exists on file.
- Wiwi Casino runs no sportsbook in Ghana, so there is no three-way price to measure.
Questions this page gets asked
Why does this site rank fewer bookmakers than the others?
A board about price only ranks books whose price we could compute from published odds. A casino has no price to compare, and a book that publishes none cannot be judged on it. That leaves eight of the thirteen brands trading here. The other five each get a page saying which of the two reasons applies to them.
What does the percentage in the main column mean?
It is what a book gives back on a cedi of turnover, worked out from the margin inside its own published three-way football prices. A book at 95% keeps five cedis of every hundred staked before any result goes your way or against you. It is a floor on what the price costs, not a forecast of anything.
Is the best-priced book the top of the board?
Not automatically, and this site prints both orderings rather than hiding the disagreement. The price carries 20 of the 100 points in the model; reaching a person, holding a licence and being paid carry 62 between them. A sharp price at a book that will not answer you is not a price you can use.
Has anybody here placed these bets or timed a withdrawal?
No. Every price on this site is a price the bookmaker published, read on a stated date, and every withdrawal time is the one the bookmaker states about itself. No money belonging to this desk has gone through any of these accounts, and nothing here should be read as though it had.
Do you carry lottery results?
No. There is no results feed behind this site and a stale results page is worse than no page, so the lotto page says so plainly and points at the authority that publishes the draws.
