Sports Betting in Colombia
Horse racing is quite popular in Colombia. There is one large race track in Palmira that hosts regular events. Thoroughbred racing is the most popular. Other forms of sports wagers are also provided to Colombian players. Intralot helps run a sports lottery in Colombia, which replaces the role of the typical Colombian sportsbook. There are over 5000 places to buy sports lottery tickets. A percentage of all revenues coming from sports betting with the Intralot toto system are given to DIMAYOR, which is the Football Federation of Colombia.

Online Sports Betting in Colombia
Players looking for more traditional Colombian sportsbooks that offer fixed odds betting should look to the internet. While Intralot's sports toto is available online, players can also use foreign online sportsbooks. These foreign websites offer a much larger range of events and bet types to players. While not all major international internet betting sites accept Colombian players, those that do often have Spanish language services as well. While there are no proper Colombian sportsbooks online, these foreign sportsbook websites fill the gap.
