• V-league;
• PenaltyShootout;
• Doh Pap.

To select sports, click on the drop-down list. The same range is available at the bottom of the page in the A-Z Sports tab.

After you select a sport you will be presented with a list of all available events for betting with odds on the outcome (1X2) of the competition.

Mobile version

If you prefer to bet from your phone, the bookmaker has developed an adaptive mobile version. The side menu on the right side contains additional sections that are not visible in the full version.

Betlion mobile app

In order to allow customers to bet from their phones, the bookmaker has developed an Android application. Detailed instructions on how to download the application and the download link you can find in this article.

If your device is on any other operating system other than Android, your only option to bet from your phone is to use the mobile version of the site.

Using the iOS example, let's explain how to add a shortcut to your home screen to speed up the process of entering the site. This will minimise the chances of losing the link. In order to create and add a shortcut to your iPhone, you need to:

1. Open the bookmaker's website using a browser and click on the blue icon at the bottom centre of the page;

Odds and margins

Margin (or percent) is the bookmaker's earnings. It is included in the charges and varies from 5% to, in rare cases, 15-18%. The size of the margin also depends on the popularity of the event.

Our opinion about the bookmaker

Betlion is a bookmaker that operates legally in Kenya. The company offers sports betting and casino services. For the comfort of customers, the bookmaker offers a mobile application, in which, as well as on the website, promotions and bonuses are available.

Among the minuses of the company, we noted the lack of an application for IOS. The bookmaker also does not have a welcome bonus for new customers.

We recommend you Betlion for sports and casino betting.
