Overview

About 22Bet

Who Runs 22Bet

22bet is not run by one company. The facts panel on this page gives the parent as Marikit Holdings Ltd, part of TechSolutions Group N.V., and each national service is provided by a separate local company that holds that market's licence. Arcadia Hospitality Ltd provides the Nigerian site and Arcadia Hospitality Limited the Ugandan one. Nuntis Holdings Limited provides the Kenyan site. Betwin Limited provides the Tanzanian one, registered at Plot 373, Garden Road, Mikocheni, Block A, Dar es Salaam. Each of those names appears in the footer of the site it operates, alongside the licence it holds.

Where 22Bet Is Licensed

In Nigeria, Arcadia Hospitality Ltd is licensed by the Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority under License No. LSLGA/OP/OSB/22B230524, and by the Oyo State Gaming and Lottery Board under License No. OYSGB/CASB/250114. In Kenya, Nuntis Holdings Limited is licensed by the Betting Control and Licensing Board under the Betting, Lotteries and Gaming Act, 1966 — as a bookmaker under Licence No. BK - 0001293, and to organise and manage games under Licence No. PG - 0001294. In Tanzania, the Gaming Board of Tanzania’s published register of sports-betting operators lists Betwin Limited, but without the 22bet trade name and without a licence number, so no Tanzanian licence number is stated here. In Uganda, Arcadia Hospitality Limited holds licences No. NLGRB-BM-26-0221 and No. NLGRB-CS-26-0222 from the National Lotteries and Gaming Regulatory Board under the Lotteries and Gaming Act 2016. 22bet does not hold a Great Britain licence, and the countries table on this page records the United Kingdom as not available.

Additionally, 22Bet operates several standalone domains for players in certain African countries.

What You Can Bet on, and Where

The sports recorded for 22bet on this site are soccer, basketball, tennis, American football, baseball, ice hockey, golf, MMA, boxing, motor racing, cricket, darts, snooker and rugby. Availability is set market by market rather than globally, which follows from a licence per market: the countries table on this page records Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda as accepting customers, Argentina as restricted, and Brazil, Peru, Ukraine and the United Kingdom as not available. A reader outside those markets should take the licence statement from the footer of the 22bet site served in their own country.

Whereas most online betting sites feel like commodities, nearly indistinguishable apart from their logos, the 22Bet app does a few things quite differently than the competition. Most noticeably, 22Bet Sportsbook offers wagers on a vast range of sports, including niche events in bare-knuckle boxing, Muay Thai, Kabaddi, and more. The same applies to football, with 22Bet’s coverage ranging from UEFA Champions League matches to niche leagues like Bangladeshi women’s organizations, USSR Indoor 3x3, Belarusian Short Football, and even live KLASK matches.

Market depth is similarly extensive, almost to an absurd degree at times. Betting markets for individual matchups run the gamut from basic pregame wagers on who will win, double chance results, various scoring totals, Asian handicaps, Asian totals, and seemingly endless props. 22Bet’s odds aren’t the greatest in competitive sports betting markets, but it covers so many events every day that sharp users are bound to find value in places. In October 2026 a Serie A fixture between Atalanta and Venezia carried 219 market groups and 1,334 betting outcomes on its main tab alone, with another forty-odd sub-game tabs taking the total past 6,000.

While competing bookmakers typically only give esports betting cursory attention, 22Bet delves deeper by covering the most prominent international competitions plus regional leagues in Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East, and Asia. Two novelty sections sit alongside them and were both still running in October 2026: seventeen separate marble sports, from Marble Football to Marble Fidget Spinners, and AI matches in video games ranging from Mortal Kombat to Angry Birds. On a Monday afternoon in October 2026 there were 25 live esports events open for betting, and well over a hundred more if the simulated video-game sports are counted.

Banking

The payment methods recorded for 22bet are Visa and Mastercard, the Skrill and Neteller e-wallets, Paysafecard vouchers, and three cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. A cryptocurrency transfer settles on a public ledger rather than through a bank, so it cannot be reversed and there is no chargeback, and a balance held in one is worth whatever the coin is worth when it is withdrawn. The banking guides on this site cover both points for every operator.

The App

The app is published under the name of the company that holds the local licence rather than under the brand. In the Nigerian App Store the seller is Arcadia Hospitality Limited, the same company named in the footer of the Nigerian site.

Bettors can search for it in the App Store or Google Play Store, but 22Bet has launched standalone versions in some regions, so it’s easier to get the right app by visiting the 22Bet website and following the links there to the appropriate download page. Overall, the 22Bet app ranks about average compared to other online betting apps. It doesn’t have an impressive visual interface, but the 22Bet app is significantly more straightforward to navigate than the website.

Aside from better navigation, the 22Bet app provides the same functionality as the desktop website.

Verdict

22bet operates through a separately licensed company in each market rather than one group licence, and in the four markets checked here that company is named on its own site alongside a numbered licence from a named regulator. For a reader, that means the question is not whether 22bet is licensed but which licence covers them: the answer is in the footer of the site served in their own country, and the number there can be taken to that regulator.
