1xBet at a Glance

About 1xBet

1xBet was founded in 2007 and has grown into one of the world’s largest sports betting and casino operators, now serving players in over 50 countries. In Africa, 1xBet has invested more deeply than any other international operator — with an NLRC local licence in Nigeria, a GCA licence in Ghana, and formal representation across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Zambia.

The platform’s defining advantage in Africa is payment breadth. In Nigeria alone, 1xBet accepts OPay, PalmPay, Flutterwave, Paystack, GTBank USSD, bank transfer, and cryptocurrency — more than any other operator in the market. This is replicated across all African countries with the dominant local mobile money rails in each market.

1xBet is particularly popular among African crash game players and sports bettors who follow multiple leagues simultaneously. The platform’s live streaming feature — which covers thousands of events daily — is unique among African operators and drives strong engagement from football fans across the continent.

Games & Software

1xBet carries thousands of casino games across all African markets, making it one of the largest game libraries available to African players. The selection spans slots from 50+ providers, live casino tables from Evolution Gaming, crash games, virtual sports, and eSports markets.

Slots

Thousands of slot titles from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Red Tiger, and dozens of other providers. Filterable by provider, volatility, and theme. New releases added weekly.

Live Dealer Casino

Evolution Gaming live casino available 24/7. Roulette, blackjack, baccarat, and game shows including Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, and Lightning Roulette accessible in all African markets.

Sports Betting

60+ sports with 1,000+ pre-match markets daily. Live streaming on thousands of events. eSports (CS2, Valorant, Dota 2, League of Legends) and virtual sports available in all markets. One-click bet and Bet Builder across Africa.

Aviator & Crash Games at 1xBet

1xBet is one of the most popular destinations for Aviator players across Africa. Aviator by Spribe, JetX by SmartSoft, Spaceman by Pragmatic Play, and many other crash titles are available in every African market on the platform.

The 1xBet Aviator implementation shows the full provably fair algorithm history, live multiplier stream, and supports both manual and auto-cashout modes. Two simultaneous bets per round are supported — a feature that allows experienced players to hedge their positions within a single round.

Minimum bet per round is set in local currency across all African markets. The crash game catalog at 1xBet is one of the deepest in Africa — beyond Aviator, JetX, and Spaceman, the platform also offers Balloon, Zeppelin, Cash or Crash, and several other crash variants unavailable at most other African operators.

Performance is optimised for African mobile networks. Tested on MTN Nigeria, Safaricom Kenya, Econet Zimbabwe, and Airtel Uganda — consistent performance on 4G with functional experience on 3G where available.
