Karibu Bonus Betting Sites

Betting sites usually offer new customers a percentage of their first deposit as welcome bonus.

In other words, when you sign up on a site and make a deposit, you will be rewarded with a percentage of your deposit amount.

Most bookies in Kenya offer newbies 100% welcome bonus percentage, but there are other sites with different percentages.

Naturally, the higher the percentage, the better the bonus.

However, don't get too carried away by the bonus percentage as this doesn't necessarily make it a great bonus. It may just be a bait to get you to sign up.

You must carefully examine other elements and be happy with them before going for the bonus.

The maximum bonus amount is the biggest amount of money you can receive as your welcome bonus. Most welcome bonus offers have maximum limits.

To illustrate, let us consider the 22Bet, which rewards new customers with 100% welcome bonus on first deposits, up to a maximum of Ksh. 18,000.

This means that you cannot receive more than Ksh. 18,000 regardless of the value of your first deposit.

If you make a first deposit of Ksh. 5,000, you will receive 100% of that amount as welcome bonus, which is Ksh. 5,000. Similarly, a Ksh. 10,000 first deposit attracts a welcome bonus of Ksh. 10,000.

Going by the bonus percentage, a first deposit of Ksh. 20,000 should get you an extra Ksh. 20,000. This is beyond the maximum bonus value of Ksh. 18,000.

Hence, you will only receive Ksh. 18,000.

This factor is the least amount that you are allowed to deposit or stake on the betting site before being eligible for the new customer bonus.

High rollers and rich bettors obviously don't care too much about this factor, but more conservative punters would like to be able to deposit low amounts and still get a bonus. So, in this case, the lower the minimum deposit, the better for everyone!

The validity period of a welcome bonus is the length of time you have to claim the bonus before it becomes invalid.

Depending on the betting site, the validity period of a welcome bonus can be as short as seven days, or as long as a month.

Within this time, you must fulfil the wagering requirements for the welcome bonus. Failure to do so will lead to forfeiture of the bonus.

Clearly, we want a long validity period so that we can have enough time to meet the play-through requirements.

Betting companies are not charity organizations that just go about gifting people money and bonuses. They are in the business to make money.

Hence, when they offer you a welcome bonus, they often want something back in return. This is where wagering requirements come in.

Also known as play-through requirements, a typical wagering requirement demands that you wager "X" times your bonus amount on the sportsbook. The value of "X" varies from site to site.

For example, on betway, you only need to wager 3 times your bonus amount, while on 22Bet, "X" is 5. On some other sites, "X" can be as high as 10. As the value of "X" increases, so does the difficulty of the wagering requirement.

Accumulator bonuses have become hugely popular in Kenya, with almost all bookies offering them. They are also called acca bonuses and multibet boosts.

This is the bonus you receive when you have multiple games on your ticket. Usually, the most games you have, the bigger your accumulator bonus.

Shabiki has a really good 1000% accumulator bonus, while the 600% offer from Chezacash is also pretty decent.

Demand for cut one bonuses in Kenya is growing, with many punters looking for ways to insure their bets against near misses.

Betting sites have responded to this demand by offering this bonus. Kwikbet and Shabiki are amongst the leading cut one sites in Kenya.

Some betting sites have even taken it a step further, offering bonuses for cut two and cut three.

Another very popular type of existing customer offer in Kenya is odds boosts. Here, selected matches are offered at odds greater than the regular market prizes, giving punters the chance to make bigger winnings from those bets.

Early Payout offers are still fairly new in Kenya, with only a handful of bookmakers having the promotion. An early payout promo means your bet would be settled as won of the team you have backed goes ahead by a specified number of goals.

For example, if you have a 2-goals-ahead Early payout, you would win the bet if your team takes a 2-0 lead. It doesn't matter if the team ends up drawing or losing the game after 90 minutes.

Betting sites like 22Bet and Betwinner have Birthday bonuses, which rewards their customers with free bets on their birthdays.

A referral bonus is a bonus you earn when you refer someone else to a betting site. When you join a referral bonus betting site, you'll receive a referral code which can be shared with friends and family. If you get someone else to join the site via that code, you will receive a bonus. Some bookies also have referral forms or codes, which can be shared with friends and family members.

In their bid to reward and encourage loyal customers, some betting sites in Kenya give out reload bonuses. These bonuses are often a fraction of the money wagered by bettors within a period of time.

Note that reload bonuses are technically different from deposit bonuses. Deposit bonuses are given out when a bettor makes a deposit, while reload bonuses are given out after a punter has wagered a few shillings on the betting site.

Reload bonus sites include 22bet and 1xBet.

Some Kenyan betting sites periodically partner with network and internet providers to give free data to any punter who plays via these platforms. For example, you may receive 100 MB free data when you make a deposit via Safaricom's MPesa, or a 50 MB data when you place your bets on Opera Mini.

Along with aviators, jackpots are the new raves of the moment in Kenya. More than 60% of betting sites in Kenya now offer football jackpots. They ask customers to predict the outcomes of pre-selected matches, with bonuses awarded based on how close the punters are to getting the predictions right.

As we established, all welcome bonuses are deposit bonuses. New sign ups are required to make deposits in order to get their bonuses.

However, beyond the sign up offers, there are also periodic deposit bonuses given out to existing customers to boost their betting finances.

For example, betwinner have a Thursday Deposit Bonus, betika has daily deposit bonuses, shabiki give out deposit bonuses on Sundays, chezacash has a weekly double deposit bonus, and so on!
