In our review, we offer a general overview of Betway deposit methods. As Safaricom’s M-PESA is one of the most used methods to deposit funds, we provide a detailed explanation guide on using this banking method.
Read our review to find out everything you need to know about the operator’s banking methods. Additionally, we will be looking into the Betway Kenya sign up code.
Betway Deposit M-PESA
One of the most used deposit methods in Kenya is M-PESA. It functions as an e-wallet for your mobile. Users can deposit funds to an M-PESA agent, who will, in turn, deposit the funds into the user’s balance.
After that, users can deposit funds from their M-PESA accounts into Betway. Generally, this is one of the most used methods to deposit funds in Kenya. You can also withdraw funds using this method. The same principle applies, and the funds will be credited to your M-PESA account.
M-PESA is spreading so fast because it is fast and easy to use. Moreover, it is very safe. Money transfers are instant and secure. You will need your phone to confirm transfers. And in case you lose your phone, your M-PESA account is secured with a PIN of your choosing. With that, you can rest easy knowing that your funds are safe.
Additionally, you can always check your confirmations, and you even have a transfer history in your M-PESA account. Every transaction has to be confirmed, so you can always double-check before making any transactions.
Its popularity is growing, and it is spreading to other countries. So let us take a look at some features of the Betway deposit M-PESA.
Deposit
If you decide to use the M-PESA deposit method, the processing time is immediate. However, there might be some short-term deposit fees. The paybill number is 880185.
Withdrawal
Additionally, the withdrawal process will have to be approved by the operator.
In other words, it might take some time before the money is deposited into your M-PESA account. After the withdrawal is complete, you should receive an SMS that notifies you of receiving funds.
What is Betway Safaricom Paybill Number?
If you want to deposit funds into your account, the Betway paybill number to use is 880185. In the further text, we will provide you with a detailed step-by-step guide on making a deposit using this method.
Imagine the Betway Safaricom paybill number as their bank account. When you decide to deposit funds into a certain account, you will transfer it to their paybill number. In this case, since it is a bookmaker, it will be attributed as your balance. This deposit method is effective and is generally one of the most used methods in Kenya.
How does it recognize the funds as yours? Your M-PESA account links to your mobile phone number. Additionally, after registering for Betway, you use your number to do it. As a result, your Betway account links with your phone, and you can easily make deposits and withdrawals.
Please note that you need a valid M-PESA account on your mobile phone and funds available in your account to make deposits.
On the other hand, your mobile phone number will be used as your paybill number to withdraw money. Although, it will be linked with your number once you make a deposit.
How to Deposit Money into Betway via M-PESA?
The M-PESA deposit has two methods, either the M-PESA USSD or the M-PESA Online. While they are essentially the same, we offer detailed instructions for both.
The M-PESA USSD method requires you to use the M-PESA on your phone.
- Go to M-PESA on your phone and select the Lipa Na M-PESA option.
- Click the Pay Bill option and enter the Betway paybill – 880185.
- Put the Account no – Betway.
- Select the amount you want to deposit.
- Provide your M-PESA PIN and click send.
- An SMS from M-PESA should arrive as a confirmation of your deposit.
- Your account balance will update once the transaction is complete.
If you would rather use the M-PESA online, here is how to do it.
- Go to the operator’s website.
- Log in with your Betway account.
- Go to the deposits section.
- Choose the M-PESA online as your deposit method.
- Select the desired amount for the deposit.
- You should receive a notification on your phone to confirm the transfer of funds.
- Once the deposit is complete, you will receive a confirmation via SMS.
In other words, these two methods are almost identical, as both require you to have an M-PESA account and available funds in your account. After making the deposit, you should see a message that your deposit is being processed. Similarly, after it is confirmed that you have enough funds, you should receive a confirmation pop-up. The confirmation should be sent from Safaricom.
However, please note that if you do not receive a confirmation pop up, it is recommended that you verify your available money funds before attempting to make another transaction.
Other Betway Deposit Methods
Aside from the M-PESA, there are alternative methods for you to deposit funds into your account. You can use Airtel Money, Credit Card, or Debit Card.
