  • Runs daily from 17:00 – 20:00 SAST (11 June – 19 July 2026)
  • Up to 5,000 players can share the jackpot every evening
  • Minimum R5 cash bets (only your first 5 qualifying bets count)
Betway is running a daily Soccer Jackpot throughout the 2026 FIFA World Cup, giving South African players the chance to win a share of cash prizes simply by placing small qualifying soccer bets between 5pm and 8pm SAST. 

What is Betway’s Soccer Jackpot?

If you love soccer in South Africa, the 2026 FIFA World Cup has turned regular weeknights into something special. Betway made it even better with a daily Soccer Jackpot that runs all through the tournament. It's one of the simplest promos out there. No tricky accumulators. No big deposits needed.

Every evening from 17:00 to 20:00 SAST, your qualifying soccer bets go into a shared prize pool. Up to 5,000 players can grab a piece of that day's jackpot. The amount changes every day, and you can watch it live on the site with a countdown and a visual meter.

How to Join the Betway Soccer Jackpot

Step 1: Sign up and claim your welcome bonus 

If this is your first time, use the Betway promo code NEWBONUS during registration. It unlocks Betway’s current welcome offer for South African players, which usually includes a small pack of free bets or spins. While these bonus funds can’t be used for jackpot entries, they give you a low-risk way to explore the platform and get comfortable before adding your own money.

Step 2: Fund your account with real cash

To take part in the jackpot, you’ll need to deposit and use cash bets. Bonus money does not count toward entries. Once your account is verified and funded, you’re ready to go.

Step 3: Place your first five qualifying bets in the evening window

Between 17:00 and 20:00 SAST, place cash bets of R5 or more. Only your first five qualifying bets each evening earn you an entry into that day’s jackpot. After your fifth bet, you can continue betting normally, but you won’t earn extra jackpot entries for the rest of the night.

Step 4: Stick to qualifying soccer markets

Almost every soccer betting market counts toward the jackpot. This includes correct score, over/under goals, both teams to score, anytime goalscorers, player props, and many more. The only markets that don’t qualify are Draw No Bet and Outright winner bets. This keeps the focus on actual match action rather than long-shot futures.

Step 5: Wait for the 20:00 SAST cutoff

Once the evening window closes, Betway processes all entries, randomly selects the winners, and pays cash directly into winning accounts. The money is fully withdrawable with no extra conditions. The jackpot then resets for the next day’s promotion.

Who Can Take Part in the Betway Soccer Jackpot?

Both new and existing Betway customers can take part in this promotion. The rules are simple: you must be 18 or older, a South African citizen or permanent resident, and your account needs to be verified. Just a heads up, if you've self-excluded or you engage in unusual betting behaviour, like cashing out early on qualifying bets, you might not qualify.

Important Rules & Fine Print You Should Know

  • You can only win once per day per account.
  • All winnings are paid in cash and can be withdrawn at any time.
  • Betway may adjust or end the promotion if necessary, but it is currently scheduled to run daily until 19 July 2026.
  • If you have questions, contact Betway support on 0861 787 250 or via [email protected]. Formal complaints can be escalated to the Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board.
