The site is a little bit plastered with advertisements on the main page. But the
overall design of the site gives quite the interactive feel, as its name
suggests.
The
contents of the site are also well-organized as there are separate windows for
the view the betting lines and processing the transaction. There is a main
window on the left where the different wagers are listed and categorized per
sport. After clicking on a certain betting line, a Bet Card will appear on the
right-hand window complete with the necessary details. The Bet Card should then
be processed by the client. The whole interactivity between the two windows
creates a unique but effective flow of in handling customer bets.

Sports Interaction is relatively known for its unique betting lines, which
result into very profitable paybacks. The site also has a secure system for its
client base. However, there have been reports that quite a number of players
have complained about the stalling payments of Sports Interaction. Although they
eventually get paid, the site’s constant intake of slow-pay grievances isn’t
helping its reputation. It is a simple case of “Bettors Beware” or “Bettors Be
Patient”.
