How to implement this plan? Gradually and with our help!

Registration

Betafriq registration

Registration is a simple process as every simple thing, if you are a full-aged Kenyan and have a working mobile phone. Because you can't register otherwise.
So, step by step:

  1. Go to the website or app and find the Register button. It is usually green and located in the upper right corner. If you don't find it, don't despair: you can always try to place a bet or open a casino game - the site will throw you to the authorization page by itself.
  2. When the registration form opens, enter your phone number (don't forget to choose your country on the list!) and e-mail, create a password and check a box.
  3. Clicked Next button? Very good. Now you should receive a confirmation code on your phone.
  4. Enter the code and enjoy your games!

Authorization

Betafriq login

If you already have an account, but for some reason are not authorized - for example, use a new gadget - find Login button: it is usually located near register button. Then enter your phone number and password in the form, click on Login again.

If you don't remember the password or username, refer to the corresponding link.

Website

Betafriq web

BetAfriq's website makes a pleasant impression: a beautiful combination of colors, the ability to change the theme (night and day), intuitive navigation without mottling unnecessary banners and buttons. This design cannot be called laconic, but it is quite harmonious.
The obvious disadvantage is the lack of not only online chat with support, but even any tab with contact details: the customer support number is only at the bottom of the site.

Mobile version

The mobile version is absolutely no different from its desktop sibling functionally, all options are available in both versions. Visually and technically it is more compact, so it is convenient to use on portable devices.

Does BetAfriq have an app?

Betafricq app

If you can call yourself a happy owner of a phone with Android firmware, then we have good news: in addition to the site and its mobile version, BetAfric offers users to use a special application!
Unfortunately, for owners of apple devices this opportunity is not yet available.

Promotions and bonuses

The bookmaker is a bit wordy when it comes to promotions, but we've highlighted the most important one for you.

  • Maximum Redeemable Amount is 2x the bonus;

Types of sport bets

So, there are two main areas of focus on any betting site - Sports and Casino. Let's first consider sports betting: what betting formats does this bookmaker offer? What types are available?

It is necessary to say that Betafriq provides the opportunities of:

  • live betting (but without live streaming - only a scheme that shows what's happening on the field.);
  • betting on virtual games.

What is live betting? It is an opportunity to predict the outcome of a match not only before the match starts, but also during the match so that your bets are more accurate.

As for virtual games, it is an opportunity to bet on computer modeled events, unlike classic sports betting, where real games with real teams. Games rely on random number generators and statistical data to represent the course of each game and its outcome. The main advantage of such games is their speed (only a few minutes), no off-season and no human factor as such.

Well, now let's take a look at what non-computer sports Betafriq has:

  • Of course, you'll find all kinds of soccer here - football, futsal, beach football, e-football; american football and rugby too.
  • There's also a very nice set of -ball games: volleyball and beach volleyball, handball, basketball, baseball and lacrosse, cricket, tennis and table tennis.
  • Sure, field and ice hockey, floorball and golf are also graced by their presence.
  • Not every sport is as physically demanding as the above sports. You can bet on games that are based more on cunning or agility: snooker, darts, bowling, chess;
  • There is a sport that combines sedentariness and danger: racing - in cars, motorcycles and bicycles. Choose any of them on Betafriq!
  • Until today, people still debate about what can actually be called a sport. Have you thought about chess? How about computer games - yes, it's called e-sports, and cyber athletes compete in real cyber tournaments on your favorite Dota 2, League of Legends, Overwatch, Call of Duty, Starcraft, Warcraft and others!
  • If you've always been the type to watch and tease fighters at school, or were one yourself - you should check out the boxing and martial arts categories.

So, what do you need to do to choose a wager?

Betafriq sport+betslip
  1. Open the Sports tab in the top or bottom horizontal menu;
  2. Select which games on which day and of which type you want to bet on;
  3. Click on the odds you are interested in;
  4. Go to the Betting List - it is located on the right side in the web version and in a special tab in the mobile version and app - we marked it with a yellow arrow on the previous screenshot;
  5. Decide whether you want to make a single bet or a combination;
  6. Specify the amount of the bet in the special slot;
  7. Finalize your choice using the Place Bet button.

In the settings, you can choose your preferred type of odds:

Betafriq settings

In addition to settings, the side menu contains all handy tools for analyzing the line! Also on this site you will find a good selection of markets:

  • Result;
  • Double Chance;
  • Total, Total for (N) team, Asian total;
  • Handicap and Asian Handicap;
  • Team 1 to Score;
  • Team 2 to Score;
  • Both Teams to Score;
  • 1st Goal.

Something very unsportsmanlike hidden in this tab - politics! But what is life if not a game, and what prevents us from wagering here too?

Types of casino games

If you still prefer Casino - go to the appropriate section (you can find it in the side and bottom menus just the same).
Here you should pay attention to a few details of navigation.

Betafriq casino

Firstly, BetAfriq has not only the usual automated online casino, but also with live players and dealers.

Secondly, you can select from the general catalog those entertainments that you prefer and they will be saved in the My Games tab.

Thirdly, for an even better search experience, customize the provider, theme and category with filters.

Finally and fourthly, it is very easy to search for what you need in this section - just pay attention to the field with the types of games. In fact, all the diversity boils down to three areas:

  • Classic slots take us back to the days when mechanical levers and spinning reels were the standard. They usually have three reels with a limited set of symbols and just one payline - you need to match the symbols on the center line to win. Video slots have brought many innovations to the gaming industry: colorful design and animations, detailed plots, levels, multiple paylines and bonuses.
  • Time-tested table games that have found a place in the online format: Blackjack, Poker, Roulette, Baccarat, loteries, etc.
  • Classic crash game we can named an Aviator. What is it? You have a graph showing the airplane on takeoff and take a bet or two before the round starts.Then only look after the lucky plane and cash out before the plane disappear. Your win is multiplying the stake by the coefficient of the lucky plane at the point of cash out. You are lost, if you didn’t cash out before the plane flies away.

The minimum stake per play varies 5.00 - 1000 KES, the maximum stake - from 100 to 100,000 KES depending on the game. The maximum winning is 1,000,000.00 KES per day.

Payment systems and supported currencies

BetAfriq offers payments only with M-PESA – but you can choose make online transfer of funds or using paybill.

Cashout function

Betafriq cas out function

Also there is a Cash out function, that allows gamblers to get money back before the event is over, when it is not going as you had hoped for. The amount that you get back is 20% of stake after tax – so you could either make a profit or recover some of your initial stake.

Go to the Bet History section and look for the bet you want to cash out. If it is available, the amount offered for cashing out will be showed. When you click on it, a pop up will appear. Confirm the cash out - money will be immediately transferred to your account balance.

Our opinion about BetAfriq

It's time to take stock!
It's very difficult to judge objectively about companies of any kind when they are fairly new - remember, BetAfriq only came into existence in 2021 - an amazing time of epidemic and blossoming online businesses. At this point in 2024, we can give a very average rating to this bookmaker because it doesn't have the seemingly basic features that their competitors have, such as live streaming or online chat with support, not to mention an app for Apple users, and the odds aren't particularly different from the average. Nevertheless, features such as Aviator, live casino and the variation in user-friendly design create a pleasant impression and hope for the site to improve in the future.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

  • What is Betafriq customer care number?

    It is +254712895599.

  • Is BetAfriq legit in Kenya?

    Yes, but please be careful even with licensed bookmakers: they can be unfair. There have been cases, when BetAfriq blocked the accounts of users who got lucky too often! This is a new company, so perhaps these blockings were due to insufficient bankroll of the bookmaker itself.

  • How does BetAfriq bonus work?

    The main bonus of this bookmaker is a 100% free bet that you can get for every first deposit on the each day.
