CashPari Mutuel Urbain Camerounais (PMUC) is the leading gambling company in Cameroon. It was created in 1992 on the model of the French PMU (Pari Mutuel Urbain) with the idea of proposing bets on horse racing, but it has since expanded its products to include:
- Paris on football, rugby, basketball, hockey, volleyball, tennis and other sports
- Virtual Paris and Virtual Races
- Casino Games – Aviator, Drops & Wins, Slots, Bingo, Live Games, etc.
Now that the company has modernized with a website – pmuc.cm – we can’t fail to add it to our comprehensive review of bookmakers in Cameroon. Especially since this experienced operator offers interesting offers that compete effectively with other Cameroonian bookmakers, and to a certain extent, European betting sites.

What sports are offered for betting on PMUC Cameroon?
PMUC Cameroon offers about 12 to 13 sports disciplines and we will say a few words about most of them:
- Horse racing
Horse racing is the originator of Cameroonian Pari Mutuel Urbain and they remain today a flagship category of the site. They are directly connected to the PMU France, so you will find only bets on events organized in various French cities such as Merseille, Caen, Reims, Laval, Angers, etc. It’s also the only sport on PMUC offering real-time video broadcasts, making your bets even more immersive.
- Football
As football enthusiasts, we are very impressed by the diversity of the football offer on the platform. Whether you are a fan of Cameroonian and African football, the English Premier League or exotic championships in Asia and Oceania, PMUC offers a very complete world football program. International tournaments and even friendly matches are also available.
- Snowshoeing sports
A large part of the sports program is dedicated to snowshoe sports: tennis, table tennis and badminton. Tennis fans will return to WTA 125k tournaments, Challenger tournaments and all major tournaments. For table tennis, these are mainly small amateur tournaments organized 24 hours a day. For badminton, only major tournaments are offered, so there may not always be events available.
- Basketball, handball and volleyball
These three sports have a similar market structure and comparable country coverage, although basketball has more extensive coverage. You will even find African matches like those of the African Basketball League, where Cameroonian teams play.
- Baseball and Ice Hockey
These two disciplines are mainly centered on the American leagues NHL and MLB, but ice hockey also includes many European championships: KHL & MHL from Russia, DEL, LED 2 and Oberliga from Germany, Liiga Finland, Extraliga Czech, as well as the Canadian Junior Championships (OHL and WHL). It is also in this discipline that the bookmaker offers some of its best odds and a wide variety of markets.
What types of bets are there on PMUC and what are the odds?
PMUC Cameroon offers more than the types of standard betting when it comes to French horse racing. You can bet on :
- Single Winner – The Horse That Will Finish in First Place
- Simple Place – The horse that will end in the top 3
- Couple Winner – The first two horses of the race
- Couple Place – The two horses that will both finish in the top 3
- Trio – The first three horses of the race (no matter the exact order of the finish)
- 2 Out of 3 – Two horses in the top four in the ranking
- Mini Multi – The first four horses, no matter what their exact rankings
For football betting on Cameroon’s Pari Mutuel Urbain, you will find a solid selection of nearly 180 markets per match. Most of them are variations of the most popular types of betting, so don’t expect anything innovative or exclusive. Categories usually include goals, totals, scorers, disabilities and outcome. In basketball, the offer is about 150 markets, most of them being in the points difference categories and total.
The odds on PMUC are not really among the best, although there are matches with a refund rate of about 94%, which is a good level. However, this is very few games. There is a big difference with the smaller events in the program.
