A Pay Per Head runs all aspect of the bookie business with the exception of handling financial transactions. They charge a small weekly fee per customer (per head), often starting around $10. In the long run, bookies and agents alike save money while minimizing the headaches involved in running such a business entirely on their own.
True use of such services essentially converts a bookie and/or agent into a law-abiding revenue sharing affiliate but with a role reversal whereby it is you who receives the larger cut of the revenue share.
Pay Per Head companies also offer live in-play betting, thousands of proposition bets and a live online casino platform that locals simply cannot offer. Many of these businesses also offer online poker platforms.
South Carolina has some of the most archaic gambling laws on the books. Even home poker games are illegal in the state. There are no casinos and no horse tracks. With that said, the Penalty for Simple Gambling and Penalty for Aggravated Gambling are both misdemeanors.
