Rebranded in 2024 from BestBet, KonjoBet is an old operator that got a fresh makeover and carries a lot of experience under its belt. It is among the solidly established platforms that remain relevant in the Ethiopian market and remains backed by the National Lottery Administration of Ethiopia. With that said, KojoBet may not boast the flashiest tech around, but if what you are after is a user-friendly sportsbook that gets the job done, that is precisely what you are getting.
Registration
The process of signing up is smooth and streamlined, which is always a godsend. You need just your phone number and a password–no nagging forms, no migraines. Remember however that you’ll probably have to undergo some ID verification later on down the line for withdrawals, but nothing out of the ordinary there.
Sportsbook
Now, regarding the sportsbook–not flashy, but sometimes you don’t need bells and whistles, just good old reliability. KonjoBet keeps things simple with markets for football, basketball, tennis, and even esports. Whether you’re into traditional matchups like the Premier League or want to bet on Counter-Strike: GO, the bookie covers a pretty broad spectrum.
One of the things that we like is the live cash-out feature, which can be a total lifesaver for those who have been burned by that one late-minute goal. For example, you’ve got Manchester United vs. Liverpool, sitting on a 100 Birr bet with 2.5 odds. At minute 65, United is up 1-0. Now, you have a decision to make. Cash out for a safe 180 Birr or ride it out for the full 250 Birr? Decisions, decisions. At least with live cash-out, you have options, and we know options are key as seasoned bettors.
Bonuses and Promotions
Here’s where KonjoBet stands out. First, let’s talk about the Refund Bonus because this one’s a doozy. You imagine putting together a multi-game bet and then losing by one game–your worst nightmare. But the bookie has a refund system in place, meaning losing one of those games could still net you up to 10,000% cashback. You heard that right 10,000%. The refund kicks in when your total odds are above 1,800, meaning you could seriously cash in even when the odds aren’t in your favor. We’re no mathematicians, but lose one game and get 10,000 Birr back on a 100 Birr bet? Count us in.
Then, there is the Accumulator Bonus. If you are the kind of person who likes piling up games on one bet slip, this is for you. Win up to 400% on accumulator bets that have three to 40 games. Just like hitting a jackpot on a regular ticket, that is an awesome bonus. Scaling bonus with the number of games? That is what we call doubling down on fun. For instance, with 40 games and a total odd of 645.5, your possible win might jump from 64,550 Birr to 164,550 Birr, due to the storage bonus.
Virtual Sports & Casino Games
For those moments when you don’t have much to do, other than want some fast action, KonjoBet’s virtuals are always ready for you. Whether it is virtual football, basketball, or horse racing, there is just something weirdly pleasing about instantaneous results.
For lovers of more unconventional games on the other hand the goods don’t stop there, with top-of-the-bill titles such as JetX, Aviator, and PlinkoX headlining the lineup. There are slots on offer as well, courtesy of Pragmatic Play, Novomatic, and EGT who pepper the virtual casino with familiar favorites such as Multi Hot 5 and Aviator.
Variety is what we are about, and KonjoBet surely has a lot on its plate when it comes to those special games where you can get lucky in quirky titles such as Taxi Ride or Paperplane. It keeps things light when you feel just a little playful and need to take a break from the usual sportsbook grind.
Jackpot Betting
Feeling lucky? KonjoBet’s jackpot betting is all about football, where the goal is to predict the outcomes of selected games. You usually have a quite fat prize pool (up to 1,000,000 Birr), and if you’re among the winners, then you share the loot. In case there are several winners, the prize is shared equally, which is only fair. If your piece of pie turns out to be smaller than the initial stake, KonjoBet refunds the difference. It’s a nice little safety net, particularly when big jackpot bets are at stake.
Payment Methods
KonjoBet makes depositing and withdrawing funds absolutely hassle-free, with mobile banking in Ethiopia making life easy. Chapa, Voucher, PAY, Tele Birr, and M-Pes–you are sorted out no matter what.
Payouts are done in record time, usually in minutes, with no unnecessary delays or drama when trying to receive your winnings. The minimum and maximum deposit amounts are clearly indicated in the “Deposits/Withdrawals” section. No withdrawal fee is charged by KonjoBet, but mobile money providers tend to add a small on top-ups.
Payment Method | Processing Time | Withdrawal Fees |
Chapa | Instant | None |
Voucher | Instant | None |
PAY | Instant | None |
Tele Birr | Instant | None |
Customer Support
Got a problem? The support team’s got your back via live chat or email at konjo@bestbet.bet. Prompt, reactive and efficient, though you’ll have to be a registered user if you want the full from them. We’ve experienced more seamless services elsewhere, but the bookie’s support does the job.
Conclusion
KonjoBet is the kind of platform that doesn’t try too hard to impress but delivers where it matters. Bonuses, however, are what really set it apart from the pack, especially the Refund Bonus and the Accumulator Bonus, really giving your betting a boost. This may not be the flashiest of sportsbooks, but it’s functional and offers a good number of options for Ethiopian punters. All in all, KonjoBet is solid where it needs to be and provides enough variety to keep things interesting.
