Are betting sites legal in Kenya?
In Kenya, betting sites are considered legal as long as they obtain licenses from the Betting Control and Licensing Board (BCLB). BCLB controls and maintains the safety of these sites. If a betting site holds a valid operating license from the BCLB, it is deemed legal and secure for users.
You can easily locate the license information of a betting site by checking towards the bottom of its homepage. This process helps you to confirm the legitimacy of any betting platform before engaging in any betting activities.
How do I withdraw my winnings?
To get your winnings, most Kenyan betting sites let you take out your cash through M-Pesa or Airtel Money. First, log in to your betting account. Then, click on “profile.” You’ll see how much money you have in Kenyan Shillings. Next, choose how much you want to withdraw.
After that, your cash will be sent to you through the payment method you had picked while registering. Whether it’s M-Pesa or Airtel Money, the process is smooth and hassle-free. Just a few clicks, and your winnings are on their way to you.
