NairaBet is one of the most prominent betting platforms in Nigeria. The company was formed by the Nigerian businessman and philanthropist Akin Alabi. The online betting website has been operational since 2009. NairaBet holds a gambling license from the Lagos State Lotteries Board. Currently, NiaraBet allows only players from Nigeria and no other places. To open an account with them, one needs to reside in Nigeria.
They don’t offer the typical welcome bonus for new clients but provide other types of bonuses and promotions. The only thing resembling a welcome bonus is their Monday matching deposit bonus. Bettors that deposit on Monday, between 9 in the morning and 9 in the evening, get an extra 10% bonus. The maximum bonus a player can earn is N50,000. Besides, they regularly offer promotions to their regular clients.
NairaBet offers its players to bet on 18 sports total with football being in their primary focus. Mainstream sports like tennis and basketball are also well represented, as well as some low profile sports like badminton, handball, and futsal.
The odds for the best football leagues rank quite well when compared to other bookmakers. For example, the English Premier League 1X2 odds range from 102.5 to 103.5%, which is pretty good. In terms of market depth, they also rank quite well as they can offer all sorts of options. NairaBet has an in-play live section that has a great UI and features plenty of events.
Their website is responsive and can adapt to all mobile devices, tablets, and smartphones. There is even a light version of their website to give access to people with low–end mobile devices. Besides, they allow betting on the phone so that you don’t miss out on anything in case you don’t have access to the internet or a mobile device.
