When I explain what social betting is about people get really exited by the idea but most of the time they come up with question around the legal aspect of the concept.
Well yesterday I met with Alexandre Diehl who is an independent business lawyer and we had an interesting discussion about that. Alexandre is an expert in that specific industry and I want to thank him for spending some time with me.
Good news! The service I would like to launch is legal. I won't share the details of our discussion and there are some areas where I should be cautious but it's good to hear it from someone who really knows what he's talking about...
Anyway if you're still thinking it's legally impossible to launch such a service well just have a look at 1jour1pari, Betsetter and sport4fun... They already are on the market with services that have some similarities with the concept of social betting... Not quiet as good as what we're developing though :-)
Thanks Emma for introducing me to Alexandre and thanks Alexandre for your help.
