Betway Review

Betway is an online global bookmaker platform, that was founded in 2006. It is available in many cities of Europe, America and Africa, and supportes partnerships with over 60 sports teams and leagues.

Betway provides a secure site, offers many sports and casino games and a suite of safer gambling tools (a reality check, deposit limit, take-a-break, self-exclusion) for users who have some problems with interesting games.

Although the .ke site is currently unavailable, you can go to any of its other domains and use your real data. The only problem is that you will have to use euros and dollars instead of KES.

How to start playing?

What do we have to do to start using any service like this? There's a plan: сreate an account and log in to the system; make a deposit; evaluate the variety of the assortment; place a bet and win.

Let's start checking!

Registration

Some bookers prefer registration forms, which can be filled out in minutes: you only need to enter your number, create a password and type in a code from an SMS. But the majority of international betting networks prefer complex schemes, and Betway is one of them.

So, firstly find the Register button in the upper right corner. Everything seems simple: fill in the necessary information in three steps (title, names, date of birth). Then, of course, you'll be asked for a username, password and email. And finally, the address.

What's next? You are offered to immediately set up restrictions and notifications, get welcome bonuses (we look at them in detail here), and the system also asks you who you work for.
At the end of this interrogation, you click Continue - and now you have Betway account, the data of which must be verificated. Until you have done so, betting on the site is blocked for you.

Authorization

So, in case you already have an account and just need to log in to your profile - for example, if you're using a new device or the site just decided to reboot and kick you out of the system (this happens from time to time) - follow these instructions.

Whether you're using a website or an app, look in the top right corner. There will be either login and password slots or a Login button; if you click it, you'll also be prompted to enter your username/phone/email and password in boxes. If you forget the password, just click the appropriate link. Betway will send you a reset code.

Website

So, now that we're in, we can look around.
The design of the site is quite simple and it just shows all its functionality. At the top there is a menu with categories of features available on the site: sports, esports, casino, live casino and a blog - you need it to follow the news and make more informed bets.
The homepage, like many other betting sites, is a sportsbook, so in the next line, besides the language settings and the support button, you can find a choice of odds display and bank.

On the line below are buttons that take you to the current games. promotions, betslip, as well as the cashout feature and a list of your bets. You can also jump from here to your favorite sports categories via quick links.

Overall, we can say that the navigation on the site is intuitive.

Mobile version

The same can be said about the mobile site - it's a lightweight version that allows to adapt the Betway platform to a small screen without losing speed and comfort.
In our opinion, it is even better than the desktop version: look at the side menu! A particularly good solution is the ability to switch between two tabs within it.
The main functions can be found here as well as in the bottom and top menu lines. Betslip is hidden in the upper right corner.

Applications

And for those who don't want to go to the browser every time and look for the right tab, risking, in addition, accidentally close it at the crucial moment, we have good news - Betway has developed apps for iOS and Android. Moreover, each section of the site has its own application: for sports betting, casino and live casino!

Promotions and bonuses

So, Betway is a bookmaker generous with offers: when you sign up, you can choose from several welcome bonuses!
In the first case, if you choose the sports bonus, you can get a cashback after an unsuccessful first bet - the money will come back to you in the form of tokens, the local bonus currency.
If online casino is a priority for you, then boldly choose the following option: this way you will get a welcome package of 100% bonus on your first three deposits (up to $250) and ten free spins at Mega Money Wheel every day for the first week after registration.
You can also get up to $750 to play at the live casino or find the Vegas section and purchase 10 spins at Blazing Mammoth for every $10 deposit.

Be careful: each bonus has its own exclusive points related to what game you use it for.

You also can use our promo code knboost and get a pleasant surprise!

Now when we've got an account and evaluated the overall look of the site/application, it's time to start evaluating the stuffing. What does Betway offer us?

The choice of sports isn't very wide. Here you will find:

• soccer and futsal;
• american football and rugby;
• aussie rules and gaelic sport;

• baseball and cricket;
• hockey and golf;
• tennis and badminton;
• snooker and table tennis;

We also want to draw your attention to something very unsportsmanlike: having a cathegory of politics as a betting opportunity!

Here you can bet both pre-match and in live mode! How about live streaming? It's not as good as it could be: there are no broadcasts for most matches (with a few exceptions), and if they exist, they are not available on mobile versions and in the app. Some matches are compensated by an interactive field scheme.
On e-football matches, there is almost always a live stream.

Odds and markets

The choice of markets varies from sport to sport, but it is possible to say that the variety is large enough to please the demanding gambler. The odds are ordinary - in this respect betway doesn't differ from its competitors.

Casino

If you prefer casino over sports, go to the Casino or Live Casino tabs. What are they include?

In the Casino section you can find:

• 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 and card games also have found a place in the online format: Blackjack, Poker, Roulette, Baccarat.
• Super popular everywhere in these days crash games (they are hidden in the Arcade cathegory): 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.
• Actually, "jackpot" originally came from poker - jack and pot. It's an accumulation of bets in the pot. Now it is the top prize in a game or a lottery that is typically a large fund of money formed by the accumulation of unwon prizes. The small amount from each player is taken, but due to many people create a huge bank.

All of this is categorized into more precise types depending on player preference.

At Live Casino, you can play roulette, blackjack, baccarat, lottery and dice with the live dealers on the other side of the screen.

Payment systems and supported currencies

What is truly important on any betting site? You're right, it's transactions! No platform is profitable unless you feed it money, and no bet is meaningful if you don't end up with your winnings.
As far as payment systems are concerned, the choice is quite huge: you can evaluate it yourself. When you want to deposit or withdraw money, there're options:

• ACH/Bank Wire
• Visa/Mastercard debit cards
• E-Wallet
• Play+
• PayNearMe

Nevertheless, it is possible to conduct transactions only on the site: USSD and sms methods are not connected.

We recommend you familiarize yourself with the full functionality of the profile menu: in addition to the deposit and withdrawal links, you can also see here the payouts and bets in progress, as well as the history of your bets, games and transactions.

Deposit manual

1. Go to the app/site. Click on your username/side menu on the small screen or on the Bank in the desktop site version;
2. Select Deposit button;
3. Choose payment method that you prefer;
4. Input the details of the bank account/card you are going to use. Don't worry, you don't have to do this every time: if you allow it, the platform will remember your data;
5. Type in the amount you want to deposit;
6. Get confirmation from your bank. If necessary, enter the code from the SMS.

On average, the maximum possible deposit is $50,000, but the numbers depend on the method. Min deposit is $10.

Withdrawal instructions

The minimum withdrawal amount is also $10. The process of withdrawing winnings is fundamentally no different:

1. Also go to the app/site and click on your username/side menu on the small screen or on the Bank in the desktop site version;
2. Select Withdraw button;
3. Choose payout method that you prefer;
4. Input the details of the bank account/card you are going to use;
5. Type in the amount you want to withdraw.
6. Get confirmation from your bank.

Here we should pay attention to two points: first - unlike the deposit, the withdrawal is not instant: it may take a day or a week, depending on the method of transfer.
The second point - as in the case of a deposit, Betway doesn't have its own tax, but banks can charge you a fee for the transfer. Check its amount before starting the transaction.

Opinion

Well, now we have completed our little familiarization journey on Betway, what is our verdict?
Despite the fact that this platform is among the already very venerable in terms of length of existence, not all of its potential has been unlocked and not all of the features that the platform could have are implemented. Nevertheless, it is a reliable site and if you are looking for a relaxed betting experience, perhaps we can recommend this bookmaker to you.
