College football winds down the first few weeks of 2025 but then comes college basketball and one of the year's biggest wagering events, the Men's and Women's College Basketball Tournaments (March Madness).
AcePerHead plans to focus heavily on incorporating more player props as it claims to offer the best NCAA basketball betting software on the planet for bookmakers, and all for as low as $3 per player per week (plus one FREE week each month, for life).
Easy-to-Use Interface
Things can get pretty wild during March Madness. There are just about always NCAA basketball games going on, and it can make it tricky for NCAA basketball bettors to keep up.
With this in mind, the best NCAA basketball betting software needs to be very easy to use. That means having the ability to rapidly place bets as not to miss the opportunity to win money on college basketball games, especially with the live in-play betting platform.
"The interface that you’ll get when you utilize Ace Per Head’s betting software will be very simple and straightforward. It’ll make it easy for sports bettors to get their bets in fast throughout March Madness."
Plenty of NCAA Basketball Betting Options
Those interested in betting on NCAA basketball will want to be able to do more than just bet on games straight up. They’ll also want to be able to get access to total bets, parlay bets, prop bets, and more.
Ace Per Head’s bookie software will enable sports bettors to pick and choose the types of bets they want to put in. It’ll also give them access to the latest sharp betting lines, which will fluctuate from one minute to the next based on all the bets that are coming in.
AcePerHead will also feature wagering on NCAA player props as well as the ability to place bets on teams in states where betting is prohibited on in-state colleges.
The Social Casino Revolution
You cannot watch television these days without seeing an ad for a social casino.
Pay per head solutions can take full advantage by offering the closest thing to an actual casino.
AcePerHead.com, for example, features a live dealer casino that can be played with real money (not those virtual coins used at the likes of Chumba Casino and other social platforms).
There are various games that are offered thru the live casino such as European Roulette, American Roulette, Baccarat, Super6, Backbet blackjack, and Blackjack early payout, and multiple table options to choose from that have different table limits per table and different dealers. The backbet blackjack is the one where a player can actually sit behind someone that is betting at the table, and the Blackjack early payout is the one where the player can actually take a seat at the table and bet themselves.
Not only is this Live Casino Dealer feature available 24/7 but Ace offers it to bookies at an incredible can’t beat the price. Most live casinos that are offered by pay per head companies take a commission percentage based on the overall losses of each agent’s group of players. Instead Ace does not take any type of commission, so whatever the player loses from playing on the Live Casino Dealer platform is 100% profits for the bookie.
Instead Ace only charges a weekly flat fee of $15 per agent, and this gives access to all of the agent’s players to use this feature. This is not a per-player fee, this is just a total of $15 that is added to the overall cost per week of the pay per head service. So if you are an agent that has 20 players or hundreds of players, the cost is only $15 extra a week to offer a Live Casino Dealer feature to all of your players.
Having a Live Dealer Casino feature can make agents a lot of extra money each week, and is something that is popular all year round, and can be bet on 24/7, unlike a typical sporting event.
