Sportybet will be the topic of this article today, as we take a look at what this African based bookmaker has to offer via a mobile app or website. Sportybet was originally licensed in Nigeria but have not extended their arm into Kenya as well. Sportybet offers a decent-sized sportsbook with their current available markets surrounding Soccer, Basketball, Tennis, Rugby, Cricket, Volleyball, Ice Hockey and virtual games. 

How to Download and Use the Sportybet Mobile App

iOS and Android

At this time, Sportybet does not have a mobile app available on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. However, Android users will be able to find an APK file for the app which can be downloaded through various third party sites, but we recommend waiting until an app arrives on an official store before making the decision to download an APK file, as this could harm your device in many ways. Users can instead use the online website through their browser. This works perfectly and looks identical to how an app would look if they had one, so there’s absolutely no reason to avoid using it.

Before doing anything else, users should register or login to the site by tapping the relevant icon sitting in the centre of their screen, coloured in green. Signing up is never a lengthy process and once completed, users are free to enjoy everything that Sportybet has to offer. 

Sportybet App Features

Upon entering the Sportbet website you are met with their sportsbook homepage which is very well organised and easy to use no matter the previous experience punters have with sportsbooks. From Sportybet’s homepage, customers can access their account by entering the mobile phone number and password. Those who are ready to jump into the action can add markets to their bet slip from Sportybet’s ‘Highlights’ page. Punters can find a selection of Sportybet’s most popular odds from the highlights section. 

Sportybet also offers Live Betting on a number of sports including Football, Basketball, Tennis, Volleyball, Ice Hockey and Handball. Punters can use Sportybet’s handy ‘Match Tracker’ feature, which tracks the current events taking place in a match to help aid in their live bets. One of our favourite features is Sportybet’s ‘Multi-view’ which allows them to track multiple events on one screen. 

Sportybet Promotions and Offers

You can find a long list of promotions when dealing with Sportybet that range from Acca boosters, deposit bonuses and free bets. 

New customers to Sportybet can get their hands on a 100% deposit bonus worth up to 1000Kes. To qualify for this promotion, customers are required to first register an account with Sportybet before making a minimum deposit of 50Kes. To receive the full bonus amount customers are required to make a deposit of 300Kes. 

Once these requirements have been met customers will receive their bonus and are then required to wager it on odds of 3.15 or greater. 

Sportybet Payment Methods

Sportybet certainly falls short in comparison to other online sportsbooks when it comes to their accepted payment methods. When looking to make deposits and withdrawals with Sportybet you can use the following methods; Visa, Visa Debit, Visa Electron, MasterCard, Maestro and Paysafecard.

Withdrawals typically take around 3-5 days when using credit and debit cards, while e-wallets can be processed within a day. 

Sportybet Customer Service

Sportybet goes above and beyond when it comes to providing support for their customers, with all the usual avenues provided along with a couple of the more obscure options. A comprehensive FAQ’s page is available on both their app and website which provides answers to most common problems. Also at your disposal is a live chat service which should be your first port of call when in need of help. Sportybet also provides an email and telephone line that can be used for more lengthy and specific issues.

Sportybet App Summary

After taking a closer look at what Sportybet has to offer we would highly recommend giving their platform a try. Sportybet does not boast the largest sportsbook, but they certainly cover enough sports to keep most punters entertained. Also, their platform is packed full of features to aid punters in their betting like their ‘Match tracker’ and ‘Multi-View’. Apart from the lack of withdrawal methods and limited sports coverage, Sportybet is one of our favourite African based bookmakers.
