List of All Active Betting Sites in Kenya

Let no one lie to you that all betting sites in Kenya are the same. Your needs as a bettor will always be different from what others are looking for in a bookie. Some prefer high odds only, others will only use a betting site if it has advanced features such as cash out and refunds, some bettors such as me like to get free money from betting sites in form of bonuses and free bets.

The best part is that there are very many different bookies in Kenya, and through our help you can find the perfect one for your needs. Below we have listed all registered, legal and active betting sites in Kenya. We have also highlighted the best features of each as well as the welcome bonus that they give new users.

How we Rank Active Betting Sites in Kenya

While it is great to have this many bookmakers to choose from, it can be difficult to find the right choice for you. This is why I want to share with you the tricks that I have used over the years to rate betting sites. Here at Betmoran our goal is to provide you with truthful & accurate information that is meant to make you a better sports bettor.

Our team is made up of highly experienced sports bettors from around the world. We know what makes a betting site to stand out, and we make sure all our reviews are in-depth. We join and all listed betting sites just like other users to give you first hand experience.

While reviewing the bookmakers this is what we usually study:

Bookmaker Information

First, we check and confirm all official details of the betting site. This include details such as when the site was registered, the main country of registration, owners, legal status, location of offices etc.

This is meant to initially confirm whether the betting site is officially registered and recognized by the betting authority in the country. This is very crucial if you want to avoid scam betting sites. That is why we only list betting sites that are officially registered and recognized to avoid listing bookies that are banned in Kenya.

Betting Features

This will always be the most important part when evaluating a betting website. You need to be sure that they have all the important features that you will use often. These are the features that will ensure you make a profit or not.

According to us, important betting features in a betting site include cash out, edit bet feature, bet builder, live betting, bet boost, and reliable virtual betting.

Bonuses and Promos

You can make a lot of free betting cash by taking advantage of bonuses and promos from betting sites. Almost all bookmakers have some sort of bonus available to either entice new bettors or to reward loyal bettors.

To entice new users, bookies usually offer a sign up bonus that can be either a free bet or a sign up bonus that is a percentage of the initial deposit. For example 22bet Kenya will double your initial deposit up to Ksh.20,000. This means that if you deposit Ksh.20,000 as a first deposit when you join 22bet will give you a bonus of Ksh.40,000.

This is an excellent way of getting some free betting cash. If you want to get more of such offers check out our list of all betting sites in Kenya with free bets & bonuses.

While sign up bonuses are exciting, they can only be given out once, and that is why you need to seek bookies that have a reliable loyalty program that will reward users that continuously use their site. In Kenya Betway and Dafabet have the best loyalty programs.

Odds & Markets

Betting sites will give you different odds for all matches/sports depending on their average payout for every sport. It is very common to find sites that give very high payouts on football but very low payouts on other important sports such as tennis and basketball.

It is important that you take into account the average payout across all sports when choosing a bookie. However, if you primarily bet on a single sport such as football it makes more sense to use a bookie that offers the highest odds on your preferred sport.

Furthermore, you need to be able to place bets across as many markets as possible without limits. In football, a bookie should allow you to place bets on things such as number of yellow cards, corners, first to score, etc. This should include matches from as many countries and competitions as possible to increase your options.

User Friendly Website & Mobile Apps

One important feature that is often overlooked by users is the friendliness of the bookies site or mobile app. The website/mobile app must be easy to use, quick to load, and placing bets must be a smooth and pleasant experience.

In Kenya, more than 90% of bets are placed through mobile phones, and the betting experience must be optimized for use on mobile. On top of having mobile friendly sites, bookies should also have high quality native mobile apps. Such apps are quick and more responsive as opposed to visiting the website everytime you need to place a bet.

Locally, Sportybet and Odibets have the best mobile sites and native apps.

Customer Support

Every service that involves you spending money should also come with exceptional customer service. You need a bookie that will respond to all your questions and provide assistance within the shortest time possible. Good bookies should provide a wide variety of ways that you can contact the support team including social media, mail, phone, and live chat.

In Kenya, we have always liked the service provided by Sportpesa which is the quickest and most efficient. Besides being quick, the support team is also very knowledgeable and have a good grasp of the betting environment.

User Reviews and Complaints

A popular rule of thumb before buying anything online or using a service is to look for reviews from other users. Through this you should be able to better understand what makes some users to prefer a certain betting site. The first place where you can find reviews of betting sites is on Betmoran where we write impartial and detailed reviews of all bookmakers. On Betmoran you can also find reviews from other users and you can add your own reviews too.

Other places you can find such reviews include social media, google reviews, and sports betting forums. You should also be keen to find out what other bettors complain about. There are very many scam bookies out there and you need to know what you should avoid.

Additionally, the odibets android app is one of the best we have seen – its light, fast, and very responsive.

---

BET254

Some bettors to have a simple, uncluttered, and efficient betting experience. If you such a type of bettor, then bet254 is the right site for you. This betting site has eliminated all the unnecessary features and additions that I find to make most betting sites very hard to use. Bet254 is fast, easy to use even for new bettors, albeit they lack some features that might be essential for advanced bettors.

---

SPORTYBET

Sportybet has consistently been chosen as the preferred betting site by most bettors in Kenya. Its no surprise since Sportybet has some unique features and qualities that endear to many Kenyan bettors. Such unique features include full and partial cash out system, a world class betting app, exciting virtual games to name just a few.

---

SCOREPESA

This betting site provides a satisfying betting experience especially if you only bet on sports, especially football. They provide bets on a wide variety of markets, good virtual games, a large bonus, and user friendly mobile apps. Satisfying experience but unfortunately not sufficient for those who have more skin in the game.

---

The bookmaker offers sportsbooks with offers on a wide variety market and we also get a good number of bet type options increasing the chances of winning. We also have the popular livestreaming feature provided on the platform and other promos.

---

DAFABET

Dafabet is a well known bookmaker in Asia and among the largest. The bookmaker is famous for introducing the world to the Asian handicap. They cover most sports and major events and their live betting feature is a pleasure to use. Dafabet Kenya is a good option for all types of bettors.

---

MELBET

This is another bookie that will be preferred by more experienced sports bettors because of the numerous features and bonuses it has. No other betting site in the country comes close to matching what is on offer here. Melbet covers thousands of sports events from across the world.

It is almost impossible to find an event that is not covered by this bookie. Furthermore, this bookmaker usually has more than ten promo bonus on offer including: 200% welcome bonus, loyalty bonus, 100% refund, accumulator bonus, bonus for 100 bets etc.

---

KWIKBET

This betting site is very basic, but has enough features to satisfy a majority of sports bettors. The jackpot is simple and easy, the virtuals are good, and there are many weekly and daily promos for the users.

---

BETLION

This is not a popular bookie, because they have no standout features although some of their offers might be enticing to some. Freebets, and a second chance refund are the standout features on this site.

---

BONGOBONGO

Bongobongo is one of the newest betting sites in Kenya, and it might be because of this reason that it still provides an incomplete betting experience. They have a good jackpot feature and a win bonus. On the other hand, the site is not very user friendly, features such as virtual games and live betting don’t work properly. Odds on the site also seem much lower than what other bookies offer.

---

GIMBET

In our review we found out that the site provides a very disappointing betting experience especially for more experienced bettors. The bookie has focused solely on sports betting; they lack important features such as virtual sports, jackpots, and casinos. Also, their mobile-focused website is very unintuitive and slow.

---

PLAYABET

Playabet is among the relatively new bookies in the Kenyan market and offers a range of markets on sportsbooks as well as virtual games. The bookie in its short existence has amassed quite a following due to the bonuses and promotions being offered on the platform.

---

BETIKA

This turned out to be a popular choice after a number of popular betting sites such as Betin were banned by the government. This bookie has many features that will satisfy casual and even dedicated full time gamblers. Their casino also stands out; it is quick, efficient, and with enough variety to hold your interest for hours.

However, they are not very trustworthy and we have received numerous reports from our users about bets changed after winning to make them a loss, odds changing on bets placed after matches have started.

---

M-BET

M-Bet provides a barebones betting experience. While this might favor new bettors, the lack of advanced betting features might discourage veterans from using this bookie.

---

SAHARA GAMES

Betting on Sahara Games is very similar to betting in a real life casino, albeit a poorly built one. The site has all the sports, virtuals, and features you would look for in a bookie. It is a good site for more experienced bettors who can take advantage of all that it has to offer.

What holds Sahara Games back it the poor design and user interface that makes it quite difficult to navigate through all the options and even to place simple bets. They have recently updated their interface that improves the experience but it still has some way to go before it matches the experience provided by sites such as Sportpesa and Odibets.

---

MOZZART BET

Mozzart provides you with an international betting experience. Features such as the low minimum stake and bonuses make it a fan favorite. On the other hand, the website is very buggy and issues such as unresolved bets, missing deposits, and features not working correctly are quite common.

---

JAMBOBET

Although Jambobet has limited features, their website is fast and reliable; the live casino and fast cash out make it stand out. Jambobet is recommended for the newer and moderately experienced bettor.

---

POWERBETS

Powerbets is a sports betting site that is focused on mobile betting. However, it is full of features that will satisfy all your betting need if you mainly bet from a mobile device.

---

MCHEZA

mCHEZA provides a standard betting experience with a limited set of features. Although the site might be perfect for the average bettor, it lacks more advanced features and the jackpot is a bit low.
