Sasa, mambo! In Kenya, new Bitcoin casinos have been popping up to shake up the usual online payment methods in Kenya scene. Unlike M-Pesa or Airtel Money, Bitcoin is a fully decentralized digital currency—no banks or government bureaus monitoring your moves, so you can play pseudo-anonymously. Plus, on your smartphone you can jump straight into a new casino online account using a crypto wallet like CoinsPaid (widely seen as the best crypto wallet in Kenya), CoinPayments, CryptoAPI or UberPay.
Why Kenyan players are loving it:
- Instant top-ups: Bitcoin deposits usually hit your casino balance in seconds, while M-Pesa sometimes takes a minute or two.
- Lower fees: Network charges can be as little as KSh 20, compared to M-Pesa withdrawal fees of around KSh 30 or Airtel Money’s KSh 25.
- No middle-men: No banks or tax-grabbers waiting to slice off a chunk.
