BetPesa Kenya
A sportsbook serving Kenya with a genuine daily deposit bonus
No offer shownWe have withdrawn the BetPesa offer in Kenya
No bonus is shown here on purpose. Betpesa does not appear on the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Kenya's licensed-operator register for 2025/26, and we found no source confirming a current Kenyan licence under any spelling. Kenyan regulation moved to the Authority under the Gambling Control Act 2025 and operators had to reapply under stricter capital and local-ownership rules; a March 2026 audit found 14 of 52 actively promoted Kenyan platforms operating on expired licences or none while still accepting M-Pesa deposits. The register we checked runs to 188 entries and contains every major Kenyan brand, so absence is a finding rather than an artefact. The site itself still responds, so this is not a claim that the business is gone - only that we cannot verify its authorisation, and a Kenyan reader depositing on our recommendation deserves better than that.
We removed it on 20 July 2026. We would rather show you nothing than point you at an offer we cannot stand behind, so there is no sign-up link on this page. See every licensed betting site in Kenya →
Pros
- Genuine recurring daily deposit bonus, beyond a one-time welcome offer
Cons
- Not listed on the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Kenya's licensed-operator register for 2025/26, after Kenya required operators to relicense
- Specific Kenyan gambling licence not independently confirmed — a genuine trust caveat
- Ownership/parent-company structure not independently confirmed
- Limited to Kenya in this dataset
Our verdict
NO CLAIMABLE OFFER HERE - the description that follows is what we used to advertise, kept as a record rather than an invitation. BetPesa was a sportsbook serving Kenya and it used to offer a 100% welcome match up to KES 25,000 (branded the Karibu Bonus), plus a genuine recurring daily deposit bonus of KES 5,000 on any deposit over KES 100 — a real ongoing value structure beyond the standard one-time welcome offer. A specific Kenyan gambling licence for BetPesa was not independently confirmed during this research pass, which is disclosed transparently as a genuine caveat rather than assumed. If you're in Kenya, BetPesa's recurring daily bonus is a genuine positive, but confirm current licensing directly before depositing.
How we rated it
Sportsbook (40%)6.3
Kenya-focused sportsbook with a recurring daily deposit bonus alongside the standard welcome offer.
Customer support (10%)5.5
No major documented complaint pattern found, but independent verification is limited.
Trust & licensing (30%)4.5
A specific Kenyan gambling licence was not independently confirmed for this brand during this research pass, a genuine trust caveat worth disclosing. Marked down because we could not find this brand on the current Kenyan register after regulation moved to the Gambling Regulatory Authority and operators had to reapply. Not a finding of wrongdoing - a finding that the authorisation is unverifiable to us.
