BetSync Installation Guide

Overview

This guide walks you through the process of setting up and configuring BetSync, a comprehensive SaaS platform designed for streamers to engage with their audience through bonus hunts, giveaways, and various interactive features.

The setup process consists of several key steps that will help you configure your BetSync instance with proper authentication, settings, and customization.

Prerequisites

Before beginning the setup, ensure you have:
