In Africa, Betway is one of the leading sportsbooks and boasts millions of registered users in Nigeria, Ghana, Tanzania, and many more.

In our Betway review, you’ll discover everything there is to know about this bookmaker, including its bonuses, markets, casino games, payment options, and customer support.

Brief Overview of Betway

Assessing Betway

When reviewing bookmakers, we look for many crucial factors. The most important is the presence of a valid gaming license in the country where the sportsbook operates. We also look at the quality of betting events and whether the platform can be fully accessed on mobile. We rate bookmakers with mobile apps highly.

The number and quality of displayed promotions and the listed payment methods are also factors. In future sections, we’ll review Betway based on these factors and more. Read on!

Betway’s Promotional Deals

The number of promotional deals you’ll receive on this bookmaker will depend on the country you’re playing from. For example, new players in Nigeria don’t get to enjoy any welcome bonus, while the case is different for South African and Ghanaian bettors. Let’s look at some of the major promotional offers in various African countries.

Welcome Bonus for New Players

Currently, there are no Betway Malawi and Nigeria welcome offers, which is disappointing for a bookmaker of this size. However, the situation is completely different for bettors in other African countries. In Mozambique, new users are entitled to a 100% Betway sign up bonus with up to MZN 5,000 in free bets up for grabs. For Ghanaian punters, there’s a 50% first deposit offer up to GHS 200 in free bets.

In South Africa, Betway offers a 100% welcome offer of up to R1,000 for new bettors. The bonus is credited as free bets and is only available to users who have completed their FICA verification. There’s a similar 50% offer on display for Betway Tanzania and Zambia punters with up to TSh 10,000 and K1,000 in free bets up for claims.

This Betway registration bonus doesn’t have any wagering requirements, but before you can receive the bonus, you must have wagered your initial deposit a certain number of times, usually between 3x and 10x. It must also be on sports or jackpot events with odds greater than 3.0 and must be done within 30 days of creating the account. As we already mentioned, some users may be required to completely verify their account before receiving the free bets.

Win Boost

With the Betway Win Boost promotional offer, you get an extra payout on your successful multibets. This promo is available to players in all African countries, but the win boost percentage differs. Betway South Africa players can enjoy up to a 300% boost on their winnings when they place multi-bets with selections having odds of 1.2 or more. In Ghana, the multi-bet boost offer is currently at 150%, while the Betway Zambia, Tanzania, and Mozambique offers are capped at 100%. Nigerians enjoy a much higher percentage at 250%, while bettors in Malawi stand to gain the most with a 1000% boost on all their multi-bet winnings.

However, it’s worth noting that this Betway bonus might be briefly unavailable in some countries at certain periods. To confirm if the promo is currently active, search for the Win Boost icon on your bet slip; you might need to activate it there. Winnings from this promo are credited as cash directly to your betting wallet.

Weekly Reload Bonuses

There are three weekly reload bonuses available at this bookmaker. The first is the Top Tuesday Offer where players can receive free spins, free bets, or cash rewards after making their first deposit on Tuesday.

The second weekly bonus is the Free Play Friday where random players are selected to be awarded free spins, free bets, cash, or casino bonuses. To qualify, you simply need to make a deposit on Friday and use the entire amount to stake on sports markets with odds greater than 2.0. If you’re among the lucky players, you’ll be contacted via email or SMS, and your reward will be credited to you in under 48 hours. The exact reward for the above Betway offers changes every week, and they are not always active in some countries. Currently, only Betway Ghana and Nigeria players can partake in the promo.

The final weekly Betway promotion is Super Boost Saturday, where selected pre-match betting odds are boosted, allowing players to earn bigger profits from their wagers.
