Are all betting apps created equal? Although the question seems rhetorical at first glance, it can still be answered.
Choosing the Helabet app Kenya as the object of our scrutiny, we find out whether it is a beautiful and unique snowflake or the same gaming software as everything else.
What Does It Take to Get the App?
Basically, just a stable Internet connection.
By typing “helabet“ in your browser, you’ll see the bookmakerߴs official website at the very top of the search results. You are welcome here!
On its site, Helabet claims to have apps available for both Android and iOS. However, when we get to the mobile applications section, we see a download button for the Android version only.
Hopefully, the iOS app is underway, and in the meantime, Apple addicts can use the sportsbook through the Helabet mobile site.
All you need to download the Android-based software is to have the OS version 5 or higher and then just answer the questions in the pop-ups affirmatively.
How Long Does It Take to Register?
Two minutes max.
There are two sign-up options for Kenyan punters: by phone and full. Choosing the former, you will only need to enter your phone number and password. Additionally, you can opt for a bonus and apply a promo code.
By all odds, you have to accept the company terms and conditions and privacy policy and confirm that you are of legal age.
Finally, to activate your account, you must request and type in an SMS code sent to your mobile number.
