Elitebet: A Dedicated Bookmaker for the East African Market



Elitebet has been a major bookmaker in the East African markets for many years now. Boasting of two different websites, one for Kenya and another for Uganda, the sports betting company has tailored its services to meet the needs, money denominations and mobile carrier providers in East Africa. 



The websites are pretty simple and straight forward, with most pages containing plenty of useful explanations. Players can bet online or via SMS after going through a simple registration process.

How to join Elitebet

The registration does not involve filling any form. You simply need to make your first deposit by sending the money using the number 870700 under account name “Elitebet” and you will immediately receive an SMS confirming your membership and PIN. You can the go ahead and place your bet. The company gives much preference to football and so you will not get other sports.  Betting via SMS uses the number 29210, but those with smartphones or computers can simply bet online.

Elitebet jackpot

Elitebet jackpot consists of 12 matches. To win the jackpot, you have to predict the outcomes of all the 12 matches correctly. Nevertheless, you can still earn some money by getting 10 or 11 outcomes correct. Moreover, Elitebet offers a bonus if all your predictions were correct at half-time of each match. The bonus amount received by each winner depends on how many people get a specific number of predictions correct. For example, if only one person gets 11 outcomes correct, the jackpot bonus received is bigger than if 10 people get 11 outcomes right. Jackpot predictions can be made either online or via SMS and the amount staked for the jackpot is Ksh 50.
