- Clear welcome bonuses tailored to both South Africa and Nigeria
Cons

- Limited to South Africa and Nigeria in this dataset
Our verdict
Afribet is a sportsbook genuinely licensed in South Africa by the North West Gambling Board, offering a 100% first-deposit welcome bonus up to R2,000 (minimum first deposit R100). Afribet also serves Nigeria with a 100% welcome bonus up to 100,000 NGN (6-10x rollover, minimum deposit 1,000 NGN), though a specific Nigerian regulatory licence for Afribet was not independently confirmed during this research pass — disclosed transparently. We did not research this brand's regulatory history in this pass, so the absence of any warning below reflects a gap in our work rather than a clean record. If you're in South Africa, Afribet's genuine North West Gambling Board licensing is a real trust positive.

How we verified this
