Sky Bet launches new ‘Group Betting’ functionality

Online bookmaker Sky Bet has announced the launch of its new feature ‘Group Betting’, allowing its customer to form ‘community accumulators’.

‘The concept is for a group of friends to create a Group in which they build a Group Bet (Accumulator) by each member of the group making one selection each’ details Sky Bet in its product release.

When the group confirms its bet selections, individual customers will then be able to place the group bet slip into their personal Sky Bet accounts and place their personal wager.

Furthermore, customers will be able to modify market selections, once the betslip has been transferred to their personal accounts.

Launching the new function, Sky Bet states that its ‘Group Betting’ feature is not a ‘syndicated bet’, as group accumulator winnings are not split between participating players.

Group Betting will be made available to all Sky Bet customers, with the bookmaker creating a new menu section on its sports betting desktop and mobile clients.

At present, Sky Bet will allow its users ‘to be in a maximum of 5 betting groups either created or joined’.

The launch of the ‘Group Betting’ feature, has been highly anticipated on Twitter: https://twitter.com/search?q=Group%20Betting%20Sky%20Bet&src=typd
