The arms show a black fleur-de-lys, which is taken from the arms of the city of [[Aarschot]]. Betekom was until 1793 part of the Rivieren estate, which was a possession of the city of Aarschot for many centuries. The fleur-de-lys was also used on the local seals known from the late 17th and the 18th century. The supporter is St. Lawrence, patron saint of the village. | The arms show a black fleur-de-lys, which is taken from the arms of the city of [[Aarschot]].
