SportPesa Review & Rating 2023

We calculated the margin for SportPesa  by analysing the odds they offer and placed them into one of the following three categories:

From 1% to 5%: Good value

Over 5% to 7%: Average value

Over 7% to 10%: Poor value

Football

We got our results by taking the "Match result" odds and also the over/under 2.5 goals odds for different matches in different football leagues. Getting the average results using this method, we were able to obtain the margins for each league and the overall betting margin for the bookmaker.

SportPesa  has an overall average margin of 5.82% for football and falls in the average category. In the first section with Premier League and Championship, the margin is at 5.04%. The second section with Spanish La Liga and Italian Serie A, the margin is at 5.05%. Finally, taking matches from around the rest of the world into account, the margin is at 7.37%.

SportPesa provides an extremely refined sports betting app, which many of its dedicated customers have already downloaded. The app is free and readily available on Google Play and the App Store for Android and iOS users.

Follow the steps below to set up your SportPesa account:

1. To initiate the sign-up process, navigate to the SportPesa.co.uk main page. If you are using the app, open it. Next, select the light blue “Join” icon. The tab is located in the top right-hand corner of the bookmaker’s homepage. 

2. Clicking on the “Join” icon will direct you to SportPesa’s welcome page. It also has a declaration that the platform adheres to safe gambling practices. It provides quick links to a budget calculator and the play-safe tools that the bookmaker offers. Clicking on the “Continue” icon confirms that you are satisfied with SportPesa’s bettor protection policies and will reveal the first registration overlay page.

3. The first window that pops up requires you to enter personal info. Here, start by selecting your gender. Next, enter your name, date of birth, and email address. Note that the information you provide here will be used for verification and withdrawal transactions. Once you confirm it is correct, click “Next.”

4. The second window requires your contact information. Here you are first required to confirm that you are based in the UK. Next, enter your mobile number, postal code, address, and city. There is also a provision for a second address, though this is optional. Ensure the information is correct for the verification process, and click on the “Next” icon.

5. The third window is where you create your SportPesa account. It has two sections. In the first section, pick a unique username and create a strong password. The next step is to set deposit limits. Use the sliders to choose whether to set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit. In the next box, select the amount you wish to deposit. 

6. Next is where you permit SportPesa to send you special offers, price boosts, and exclusive promotions. You can choose one method or tick the check box to allow all of them. Do not forget to tick the box confirming that you are over 18 years of age and that you agree to the various T&Cs. Then click “Create My Account.”

The process of depositing funds into your SportPesa account is straightforward. To make a deposit, log into your account on your desktop or mobile device. 

After accessing your account, follow the steps below:

1. The first thing you must do is decide which deposit method you wish to use. If you use the SportPesa web version, navigate to the top right corner and click “Deposit.” If you use a mobile device, click on the user icon in the top right corner to see the deposit option.

2. The panel that pops up when you click on “Deposit” has two drop-down menus; “Transactions” and “Personal Information.” You can confirm your open bets, games, and transaction history here. Navigate to the “Deposit” option on the transactions lobby to access the cashier section.

3. A new window will pop up, requiring you to enter all the card information as requested. The required payment details include the card number, expiration date, and security code. Once you confirm the details, click “Deposit” to authorise the payment. Provided you have entered the correct details, you will receive a confirmation message, and the funds will be transferred into your SportPesa account instantly. 

SportPesa has created a straightforward betting procedure. No matter the sport you choose, the steps are pretty much the same. 

1. The first step is to choose which sport you want to bet on. There are two options here. You can use the quick links or navigate to the “Sportsbook” section in the main lobby. The “Sportsbook” is divided into “Top Leagues,” which has the most popular leagues and competitions, and a “Menu.” The “Menu” has a complete list of all the sports that SportPesa has odds for.

2. In this example, we clicked on “Football.” The drop-down menu that pops up when you click on this section shows all the betting markets (countries and continents) that SportPesa covers. When we clicked on England, we could view all the competitions covered by SportPesa. Here, we clicked on Premier League.

3. The Premier League section is divided into “Match Odds” and “Outrights.” The “Match Odds” section lists all the live and upcoming games. In contrast, the “Outrights” section lets you bet on which team will likely clench the EPL 2022/2023 title. If you are not betting In-Play, scroll down and choose one of the upcoming games.

4. Here we chose the Arsenal vs Brighton match, which will be played on 14th May 2023. On this page, you can scroll down to view all the betting markets that SportPesa has odds for, but we will simply bet on Arsenal to win. 

5. Once you have clicked on the odds, a panel with your new betslip will appear on the right-hand side of the screen. You should enter the stake in the box to view your estimated wins. If you are happy with everything, click on “Place bet.” 

Withdrawing funds from your SportPesa account is also a straightforward process. To withdraw from any bookmaker, you must be logged in and have a withdrawable balance.

Follow the steps below to withdraw funds from SportPesa:

1. The first step is to access your SportPesa account. When logging in, you will need to provide your username and password. Next, confirm that you have a withdrawable balance. Note that SportPesa allows for a minimum withdrawal limit of £10. Your account balance is indicated at the top right corner of the homepage.

2. If you have met the threshold, click the blue “Deposit” icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen. If you use the mobile application, tap on your username in the top right-hand corner to access the cashier’s section. Choose the “Withdraw” icon from the drop-down menu and select the method you will use for withdrawal. 

3. A pop-up box will appear where you will be prompted to withdraw available funds. In this example, we used a debit card. When you click on the debit card option, you will see the card details you last used to deposit. Enter the amount you want to withdraw and click the “Withdraw” icon. The funds will be reflected in your account within the specified withdrawal time.
