TigonBet launches in Kenya, leading the gamified mobile betting charge
TigonBet is entering the growing digital betting market with swipe-to-bet features, live leaderboards and a wide variety of games.
Kenya.- The fast-moving online betting industry in Kenya has gained a new player with the official launch of TigonBet this week. The platform offers a gamified experience designed to appeal to Kenyan users who prefer mobile-first, fast-paced betting.
TigonBet, a digital sportsbook and casino platform, features the “swipe to bet” interface. Inspired by swipe-based apps, it allows users to navigate betting markets and fixtures by scrolling through options, according to TigonBet.
“TigonBet’s swipe-to-bet interface takes cues from dating apps, letting users browse betting markets in a mobile-friendly, intuitive format that suits today’s fast-moving bettors,” said TigonBet, according to the Capital FM website.
At the heart of the brand is the “Tigon,” a colourful and vibrant lion-tiger hybrid symbolising strength, agility and boldness, with these traits reflected in its design and features tailored for Kenyan bettors.
Swipe, compete and win big
Casino players can access a wide range of games, including slots, table games, crash formats and live dealer options.
Beyond ease of use, TigonBet offers real-time betting tournaments with live leaderboards, where users can compete by placing consistent bets. Prizes on offer include smartphones, airtime, gaming consoles and TVs.
The platform has also launched a programme to support local bloggers and digital content creators. “TigonBet’s affiliate programme includes real-time dashboards and flexible commission tools aimed at bloggers, Telegram group admins and digital content creators across Kenya,” said TigonBet.
TigonBet’s loyalty programme awards points for every wager, unlocking perks across multiple levels. The referral scheme, running through December 2025, offers users a share of bets placed by friends they invite.
The platform is also fully integrated with M-PESA for seamless payments and provides 24/7 customer support via WhatsApp, live chat and email.
