This sportsbook is one of the many registered sport betting operators running activities in Kenya. The bookie has specialized its products in three main products namely; sports, virtuals and spin and win. Unfortunately, if you are a casino enthusiast, you are not going to find those services with Betsafi. Also inclusive in sports are the live games you can wage on albeit with several vital features missing. The jackpot too is missing though the bookmaker has it listed among its products. You will however find its ‘spin and win’ quite good and frankly better than most betting companies.

Cons

  1. Misleading jackpot. No jackpot is currently available though the site has it listed as one of its products.
  2. No match tracker for the live games or statistics whatsoever.
  3. No cash out or partial cash out.
  4. Poor odds. The odds on most games seem to be below par in comparison with other local bookies. The markets of most interest to kenyan punters include the 1X2, over/under and the GG/NG markets. Going through those markets will probably leave you dissapointed as the odds are a little below average. You probably have to bet on multiple games or place a high stake on asingle game to realise a profit.
  5. Only one sport is on offer to bet on i.e Football. This lack of an alternative sport to football is quite a letdown in my opinion. Sports fans from other minor sports will surely be dissapointed.
  6. No offers or bonuses whatsoever.
  7. No live chat for the customer support.
  8. No casino is available

Promos and bonuses

As at the time of writing this review, no promos or bonuses were available. Nevertheless, players can keep tabs with the bookie through their social media for any upcoming offers.

Odds quality

In comparison with similar bookies, Betsafi ranks poorly on almost all fronts. Both the live games and the prematch games had unattractive odds to be honest. For instance,in the much awaited Merseyside derby Liverpool winning odds are placed at 1.84 whereas most similar bookmakers have their odds on the range of 1.91 to 1.95. Clearly the team responsible for these odds needs to adjust those odds and make them attractive enough.

Betting limits

The minimum and the maximum amount you can deposit with your Betsafi account is 1 kes and 70,000 kes.

As for the stakes, you can place a minimum of 20 kes.

Mobile options

No mobile app available for download. Nevertheless, the mobile version for the site works just as well.

Experience and summary

The bookmaker has a lot that needs upgrading to be honest. From the odds to the markets to the missing important features like a match tracker. Sports like basketball have been gaining traction in Kenya as one of the most popular sports and should therefore not be missing. Variety of gaming options like the casino could also be added to spice things up. Also, alternatives to Mpesa could be availed to increase player options when making payments. The virtual games and the ‘spin and win’ on the other hand were better off than other bookmakers. So if you are a gambler with a preference for such games that depend purely on luck, then Betsafi was made for you.

Verdict

Betsafi deserves 2 stars. A lot is missing from this bookie but the biggest disappointment is the poor odds you will come across with a quick browse. Other sports apart from soccer and the fact that the jackpot is missing raises all the red flags. Not even an entry offer in sight.
