Sportpesa Kenya Review

Sportpesa is an online betting site that originally started in Kenya. However, today they have become a global leading betting platform used by over 20 million people. It is a fantastic betting site with many pros, including a good mobile app and a generous bonus. In this betting site review you will get to read all about this.

About Sportpesa

Sportpesa was founded in 2014 in Kenya. They have been around for more than a decade and even if their headquarters are in Kenya they also have offices in Tanzania, South Africa, Italy, Ireland, and the UK. They have a good reputation and we consider it a trustworthy betting site.

They have a welcome bonus that gives up to 2000 KES in bonus money but they also have a refer-a-friend bonus and many other promotions. Their game selection is huge and you will be able to read more about it later in this betting site review.

Sportpesa welcome bonus

Directly when you enter the Sportpesa website you can see that they have a new customer bonus. You will have to click “get bonus” to see the details of it but we have compiled the most important details here.

The welcome bonus that Sportpesa gives for new players is a deposit bonus. It gives 100 per cent extra on your initial deposit up to 2000 KES. Players who want to deposit smaller sums can get the bonus for as little as 50 KES. You just need to deposit 50 KES and then you will have 100 KES to play for.

The wagering requirements are very reasonable and you need to wager the bonus amount 3 times before you can withdraw your money. If you have deposited 2000 KES you need to play for 6000 KES which is very reasonable for a Kenyan betting bonus. All odds must be 2.0 or over which also is reasonable but makes it harder to fulfil the wagering requirements.

Apart from the initial welcome bonus Sportpesa Kenya also has a refer-a-friend program which can give you up to 150 KES per referral. There are also other popular campaigns like Bet Spinner, Aviator Rain Promo, and Multi Bet Bonus. You can read more about these promotions in their bonus section.

Game selection at Sportpesa

Sportpesa focuses mainly on sports betting, live betting, and virtual sport games. They also have a little casino section with both slots and live casino games.

Main game categories at Sportpesa:

• Sports betting
• Live betting
• Virtual sports
• Online slots
• Progressive Sportpesa jackpots
• Live casino
• Lucky numbers

Slots

The slots at Sportpesa Kenya come in many different categories. You will find slots with Megaways, but also large progressive jackpots and just normal video slots. They have Pragmatic Play´s popular Daily Drops & Wins which are jackpots that are released every day. They are not as big as Sportpesa traditional mega jackpots but we appreciate the chance of winning more money than just the normal slot wins. There are over 1000 online slots at Sportpesa and here are some of the popular names you can find:

• Pragmatic Play: Book of the Fallen, Big Bass Bonanza, Cleocatra.
• Games Global: Break Da Bank Again Megaways, Wolf Blaze Megaways, Queen of Alexandria Wowpot.

They also have the extremely popular crash game Aviator which we have written about many times on our website. You can play most of the slots for free. The only thing you need to do is put your mouse cursor over the slots in the lobby and click “demo”. That gives you a free-to-play demo version so you can play the slot for free before playing with real money.

Live casino

The live casino at Sportpesa is way too small. Normally we would like to see live dealer games from a few different game providers but here you can only find a few games from Betgamestv. It is not a good selection but you can find the following games:

• Dice Duel
• War of Bets
• Ultimate Roulette
• Baccarat: Fast Betting Banco
• Speedy 7

Betting

Sports betting is the biggest draw at Sportpesa bet and they have thousands of gaming markets. They have some of the best odds on the market and football is their speciality. You can find all the biggest football leagues like Premier League, Serie A, and La Liga. It is a good selection that can compete with the best betting sites in Kenya. Of course, they also have some virtual sports games and live betting for players who like to bet while the game is on its way.

Sportpesa also has a separate section for betting on e-sports. There you can wager money on the following games:

• eSoccer
• Dota 2
• League of Legends
• Starcraft 2
• Call of Duty
• Rainbow Six

Other categories

While we wrote this Sportpesa review we found that they offer scratch cards like Viking Wilds Scratch, Blood Queen Scratch, and Rainbow Wilds Scratch. They also have a section for Lucky Numbers. There you can play some popular lotteries from around the world like Lotto and Keno. We found these lotteries, among others, at Sportpesa Kenya:

• Greece Keno 20/80
• Italy 10e Lotto 20/90
• Rapido Russia 8/20
• Spanish Express 20/90
• Oland Keno 20/70

How to create an account at Sportpesa Kenya

It is easy for anyone to register an account at Sportpesa. You need to be over 18 years to play but that is pretty much the only requirement. You create your account by following these steps:

1. Click register in the top-right corner.
2. Create a username and password.
3. Fill in the personal details that are required.
4. Click “next step” and give your name, address, and date of birth.
5. You are now registered and ready to deposit funds into your account.

Payment methods

Which deposit methods you can use depends on which African country you are from, but the main thing is that they offer Mpesa. It is not only Kenyan gamblers who can play here, they also accept players from Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, and many other countries. For Kenyan players the following deposit methods are available:

• Mobile Money
• Mpesa
• Astropay
• Skrill
• Neteller

The minimum deposit is 600 KES so if you are looking for a betting site with small deposits, then Sportpesa is a good option.

Sportpesa Mobile casino

You can play at Sportpesa in your mobile browser on all devices, including iOS and Android. For Kenyan players who prefer to play through an app, there are also several different options. The apps are available for iOS and Android and they have above average ratings at Apple Store and Play Store. For iOS the app has 3.6 stars out of 5 and for Android the app has 3.9 stars. We think the apps are well-made and are perfect for players who like to place a wager no matter where they are. Note that the Android app requires Android 5.0 or higher.

Summary

To end this Sportpesa betting site review we would like to praise Sportpesa for their work with responsible gaming. They have a whole section about playing responsibly and where to find help if you feel you are playing too much. There is also some information about deposit limits and similar which can help you get your gambling under control.

Apart from that, Sportpesa has a decent selection that includes a bit of everything. Sports betting is where they excel, but they also have online slots, live casino, betting on e-sports, lucky numbers, scratch cards, and many other game categories. However, their welcome bonus is the main pro of this Kenyan betting site. It is relatively generous and can give up to 2000 KES in bonus money, and the wagering requirements are some of the most fair requirements in Kenya. We really like this betting site and we can recommend it to all of our readers.
