BetLion Kenya

BetLion Kenya is one of the best bookmakers in the new set of online betting operators. He literally burst into the world of big betting with attractive and valuable promotions, great sports options, huge jackpots and fast payouts.

Today, our review focuses on this newcomer with great prospects, which will tell us about one of the leading experts in the betting market in Kenya, Nkemdilim Bomani.

Nkemdilim, what can you tell us about BetLion Kenya?

BetLion is a newcomer to the Kenyan betting industry. It has taken the Kenyan market by storm with its simplicity and exciting offers such as the jackpot, registration bonus and others.

BetLion Kenya started its activity in the online betting market not so long ago. It came immediately after a significant change in Kenyan gambling laws. Here I want to say that in an attempt to regulate online gambling, the Kenyan government imposed a massive ban on online betting sites, and only a few “managed to survive” and continue their activities. BetLion Kenya is just one of those sites that was able to settle the issue of its activities and remained in the betting arena.

With the current state of Affairs, betting, gambling and online games have become the norm of the day and remain here forever. This is why players are always looking for the most exciting betting platform, and BetLion offers just that.

Do you think players should try their hand at this platform?

Bookmaker is owned by Gamcode Ltd, which operates under a license issued by the Bclb of Kenya, and here are some reasons to register a gaming account with BetLion:

• Sports lighting

It covers all major local and international sporting events. It presents excellent odds, combined bets, real-time bets, and virtual bets. On Saturdays, you can choose up to 10,000 different betting options.

• Safe & Secure

Bookmaker`s uses the latest security technologies to protect player data. It stores player information on secure Dell servers that are fortified by the Fortinet firewall. In addition, it carries a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption certificate from Thawte.

• Excellent customer support

BetLion offers excellent customer support via live chat, phone, and email. Its call center is located in Nairobi, and its technology center is located in Europe.

• Quick payouts

The player can withdraw their winnings to their M-Pesa, Aritel or Bank card account as soon as possible.

In fact, thousands of players withdraw their winnings here every day. You can win up to 10,000,000 KES.

It’s all very tempting. But let’s get back to the details. Nkemdilim, what can you say about the official website? How much does this platform meet all the rules of online betting?

Visiting the site, at first glance it may seem insignificant to adults, because it is absolutely simple compared to its counterparts from Europe. However, the site is made in all Kenyan traditions: maximum features and minimum graphics.

The combination of red, black and gray, as well as the almost transparent background of the site look neat and clear, and also does not distract from the main goal – the game.

But what I like most is the proper layout of the site sections and important options.

In the upper – right corner is the login area, and right below it is the main menu with betting areas:

• Sports;
• Live Betting;
• Virtual Sports;
• Casino;
• Blog Zone;
• Mobile Devices.

This makes navigation quick and easy.

The site also has a menu with all important information for players, such as:

• Detailed information about bookmaker;
• How to play;
• FAQ;
• Contact details;

So everything players need is in one place and just one click away.

The main page is filled with sports events as much as possible. There is also a list of current live betting events.

Bookmaker has managed to create a great platform that is completely easy to navigate and play on.

What can you tell us about sports betting in BetLion Kenya?

Bookmaker currently offers more than 15 different sports that you can choose from.

The leading forces of sports at this bookmaker are:

In addition to popular leagues in basketball, baseball, and soccer, this betting site also offers the best European soccer leagues.

Among the most popular are the Bundesliga, Champions League, English Premier League, Serie A and La Liga.

When it comes to American sports leagues, they have the NBA, MLB, NFL, and NHL.

Nkemdilim, what about the odds? How competitive are they compared to other bookmakers?

The odds in BetLion Kenya are quite competitive, and almost the same as in similar European online bookmakers.

For example, in football, quotes for events with equally probable expected outcomes at 1.90/1.90, and for world tournaments and 1.78/1.78 for local championship matches.

On average, margin is about 6-8%, which is the average in Kenya. However, during big competitions such as the Champions League and UEFA matches, the margin can reach 11-12%.

Let’s go directly to the bids? How variable bookmaker in this regard?

There are plenty of options to place bets.

• A parlay bet

Bookmaker has an Express-betting section, which, unfortunately, only works through the full version of the site.

To place an express bid, you need to add an event to the coupon. You can make no more than three Express bets at the same time. By the way, in other bookmakers it is fashionable to make a maximum of three Express trains.

• Live-betting

It offers a live wagering interface that allows customers to track their activity on bets placed in a simple and convenient structure. Agree, it’s double excitement and double excitement when you follow the event during the game!

By the way, as for live broadcasts, they work perfectly on this platform! The lag in the broadcast is no more than 1-2 seconds depending on the number of users on the platform

• Virtual bids

The e-Sports section is one of my favorites. Clients of the office can place bets on computer games that function the same way as real matches with real teams and real players. Here, players get a free bet of 50 KES as soon as they use a cumulative bet of up to 1,000 KES.

• Free bet

Bookmaker also runs several promotions that provide free bets. I’ll tell you more about them later.

Customers using the Internet have a simple option to make their game selection, then go to the bet coupon and click on BetLion Free bets to enjoy the offer.

• Second bet chance

It offers something that is not available on other betting sites. And this is a free second chance bet where the customer gets a refund of the free second chance bet when they lose one game in a multi-bet. I will tell you that this is a great feature for beginners who still do not understand anything about betting and play like blind kittens, choosing a favorite at random.

BetLion is really full of great offers. But are there any restrictions here?

The main restriction is the betting limits during the top events. This is due to the fact that the bookmaker is not in a hurry to part with money, and therefore restricts some lucky bettors.

For example, for leading football matches, the limit may be limited to 7,000 KES. At the same time, you can bet up to 4,000 – 5,000 KES on local events.

Many leading European and African bookmakers combine two passions of players: sports betting and casinos. Nkemdilim, what can you say about gambling on the website?

Those who like to dive into casino games can certainly do so here.

The casino offers its guests numerous card games, roulette, online slots and lotto.

In addition, the company regularly offers its players a generous BetLion jackpot, where the largest winnings reach 10.000.000 KES

Can you play Casino online with other players?

Casino offers an impressive portfolio of table games, live dealer games, arcade games, TV games, roulette games, number games and real-time slots.

For me personally, I singled out such games:

What I especially like is that they can be played both in demo mode and for real money.

To participate in any Live-game, it is important to have a good broadband connection.

What about Lotto? After all, in Kenya, Lotto is literally the national game.

BetLion offers various lotto options from all over the world. Here you can play space Irish Lotto or three-digit African Lotto. If you don’t know how to play, BetLion has an online tutorial that can teach you everything you need to know.

What can you tell us about the jackpot games?

BetLion jackpot is one of the most generous in the entire Kenyan betting space. Here they offer 10.000.000 KES as a one-time payment.

But it is not so easy to get it. To do this, you need to play Royal Hi-Lo or other slots for a month or predict 21 outcomes for any one sport.

There are currently two jackpots listed on the betting site BetLion: Goliath and the midweek jackpot

• The jackpot mid-week

The midweek jackpot offers 15 jackpot prizes and three reserves.

These three reserves can be used to replace the main jackpot prize if any of the jackpot games are canceled. To participate in the midweek jackpot, a player must receive a jackpot ticket. It’s a Ticket for it costs only 50 KES.

• Goliath Jackpot

Goliath jackpot offers 20 jackpot games with three reserves. Like the midweek jackpot, the Goliath jackpot reserves are used to exchange any major jackpot games. A ticket to the Goliath jackpot costs 100 KES.

Casino really offers its players generous offers, but how reliable is it and can you believe in its honesty?

Of course, you can’t trust anyone, because this is the world of betting, which means the world of big money. But as for BetLion, here the games use a random number generator (RNG). This guarantees absolute randomness of any game result.

What can you tell us about the BetLion registration process? They say there is some unusual way to do this.
