PowerBets

Owned by Oyster Bay Lotto Limited and licensed by the Betting Control and Licensing Board (BCLB) of Kenya (License 698), PowerBets is an online gambling establishment founded in 2016. Since it began operations in Kenya, the online business has made enormous progress.

PowerBets is well-known in the market for offering betting services in Bitcoin and for its competitive incentives, which only a few bookmakers can compete with. PowerBets does offer not only payment option in bitcoin but also local mobile wallets for Mpesa and Airtel. This is a good addition for Kenyan bettors, as the Mpesa payment system and Airtel mobile money are the fastest and most reliable payment options in the market.

Promotions and Welcome Offer

Players continue to prefer PowerBets, as they provide several rewards like a 100% deposit bonus to any new account. It is quite impressive how PowerBets Kenya is able to deliver its amazing bonus deals and rewards to more consumers.

The betting site has exclusive promotions for both existing and new customers:

• First-time consumers get a Free KSh 50 bonus voucher as a Welcome Package. This bet has to be placed on the promotion page on a pre-selected event. Please note that within 72 hours after your registration, you will need to claim this Free KSh 50 bonus or you forfeit the offer. However, you cannot use money in the bonus balance to make bets, although it can partly be unlocked whenever you place bets with actual money. Detailed rules and conditions of the promotion can be found on the PowerBets webpage.
• PowerBets also refer-a-friend offer where you get to earn Kshs 50 as soon as a user, you referred registers and places their first bet. If they win their first bet, PowerBets deducts its profit and credits their account. If the user you referred places a bet with Kshs 1000 or more, you will be rewarded with a bonus of Kshs 200. This bonus amount will be added to your stake each time you place your bet using money deposited in your account. This promotion will not allow you to use your bonus reward to place a bet.
• As a common practice in the industry, PowerBets also offers multibets promos that enable their clients to improve their chances of winning. The 30% bonus is awarded according to the number of events you've selected in your multibets.
• Once you create your account, and deposit an amount not exceeding Kshs 100, the whole amount plus the fees charged by the processor for mobile money are deposited into your PowerBet account. This is also known as a cashback offer. This offer is exclusively available to newly registered accounts to Powerbet.

5. Wait for the authentication code via SMS.
6. Complete the registration on the website with the code and click on "Join" to automatically create your account.

Alternatively, you can select quick registration via SMS. You must follow the same procedure by adding a verification code on the website, and your account will be created in no time at all.

Payment Options

Many Kenyan punters prefer to play at PowerBets as they demand no withdrawal fees. Deposits are accepted in bitcoin. However, this option takes a little longer, because it would require an authorization process before the funds are credited to the account (1 hour or two tops). Deposits are therefore charged with payment costs. The Airtel and Mpesa mobile wallets with payroll 510800 can also be used to make deposits; these options are safe, fast, and reliable.

Security and Customer Support

PowerBets is a platform focused on smartphone/mobile betting. However, there are several features that will meet all your betting expectations if you only bet on mobile devices.

After accessing the PowerBets website, we were quick to notice how difficult it is to locate the bookmaker's customer support contacts. This is one area the betting site really needs to improve as soon as possible. We found no live chat, no contact page, or webmail address, but there are phone lines, email, and social media handles.

In the area of security, PowerBets did a good job of encrypting its website with the latest encryption technology to ensure customer data is protected. Their customer support response time is something to commend.
