Features
The betPawa site is really glum. If you are an organized aesthetic person you might not be fun. No unique features. No flashy on jackpots or bonanzas. Just one stationary poster-like advert on their really low unrealistic minimum stake of Ksh1. Perhaps you are wondering why it even appeared in the lineup. Good question.
However, if you needed statistics, news updates, tips and results, there are countless sites for that. Unless you need fixtures and there is a link for you www.betpawa.co.ke/fixtures.
betPawa has one unique quality you going to love. Under the popular bets button, you shall get all the, well, popular bets across tournaments and leagues. Nice and simple for you. Popular leagues are also summarized for you.
They must also be the only site that has regard for modern popular communication. WhatsApp and Messenger are their most favorite means of customer service. There is even a button for Messenger at the toes of the site.
Promotions
betPawa’s bonuses and promotions are more seasonal than most sites. But there is one promo you cannot overlook, the minimum amount you can stake. I mean Ksh1? It seems impractical until you have to choose an even more impractical multiple bets or place a really unlikely bet with over the roof odds. If it ever worked, no one would believe you and you’d never quite betting. If it doesn’t, you would just shrug it off because it is just a bob.
Variety
Lack of variety is another bugging symptom of betPawa’s inability to lead the industry. There are only three sports offered; soccer, basketball, and rugby. They might be the most popular in Kenya but this is bad news for professional punters. The featured ones, however, are backed by a good list of leagues and tournaments across the globe.
Odds and Markets
Markets are impressively a lot. The odds that come with it won’t disappoint either. Outrights, special and other bets are placed in one panel when you click the fixture you want to bet on. Easier, yes to the bettor.
Mobile version of betPawa’s website is like shrinking the actual site into the smartphone screen size. Good for the phone user. A worry to the PC user who might be using a lot more bundles. It takes less time to load and the activities available are similar to the sites.
Live Betting
betPawa’s live betting is classic betPawa. Simple precise and nothing to complain about. No pitch imitation. Updates in odds and pitch events come in time spans of 4 seconds. Not so many markets though and the odds are satisfactory.

Conclusion
For basic football, basketball and rugby bettors, betPawa might interest you. You can’t complain a lot because someone might call all the other features and qualities it lacks compared to other sites in the Kenyan market a non-important luxury. But maybe it has to make an improvement if it wants to keep on being rated with the big fish. Therefor for this analysis, betPawa takes the fifth sport as a Kenyan betting site.

How the rollover requirement works
Let’s say the bonus on the home page is 100% and the minimum deposit is Ksh1000, and the rollover requirement is x4, and let’s say you have deposited Ksh2000 and received a bonus of Ksh2000 which makes Ksh4000.
If the rollover is x4, add your deposit and bonus and then multiply it by x4, so that is, Ksh4000 x 4 = Ksh16000.
So, you need to place bets worth Ksh16000 in order for you to be permitted to request a withdrawal from your account.
In case you lose both your deposit and the bonus, your account is reset back to normal and the rollover terms will not apply.
