A Kenyan sportsbook with a first-deposit match bonus
Visit Tigonbet →Tigonbet welcome bonus in Kenya
Context for Kenya: Kenyan offers in our data have proved unusually volatile - reviewing four brands in a row turned up one site reported down, one whose existence we could not verify at all, one reported not reachable, and one with two conflicting licence numbers. Treat any Kenyan bonus here as needing a check before you act on it. Kenya is also mid-transition: the Gambling Control Act 2025 (in force 26 August 2025) replaces the Betting Control and Licensing Board with a new Gambling Regulatory Authority, and all gambling advertising must be pre-approved by that authority. Gambling taxes have also changed repeatedly - excise now applies to deposits and a return to 20% withholding is proposed for 2026 - so treat any Kenyan offer, and its tax treatment, as liable to change.
Here is the current Tigonbet welcome offer for players in Kenya. Bonus terms change and are set by Tigonbet for each market — always confirm the live offer on its own site. See every licensed betting site in Kenya →
