While the 2014 Brazil World Cup is going on, so is a lot of World Cup betting. Of course you could either win or lose a ton of real cash, sites like Sepp are perfect for making bets just for fun with your friends on Facebook. The sports betting site by Anders Palm and Uyen Vu is made to be a place where soccer fans can come together from all over the world and place bets, no matter what language they speak.
Sepp is described "like Klout for soccer predictions," as every new user starts off with 50 points when they sign up and based on how good or bad you are at making World Cup predictions, your score will either drop closer to zero or increase closer to 100.
Since the World Cup started, over 1,000 users have signed up from 24 countries across the globe.
