How make bets
1win is an online betting and gaming brand founded in 2018. The company operates under 1WIN N.V. and has a mixed licensing profile, including an international licence in Curaçao as well as local licences in Mexico and Nigeria. The bookmaker serves players in more than 100 countries and combines sports betting, casinos, live dealer games, eSports, VIP rewards, and mobile access within a single wallet ecosystem.
The company operates under the following licenses:
- A license issued by the Curacao Gaming Authority under the number OGL/2024/587/0621.
- National Sports Betting Permit No. 00000045 issued by the National Lottery Regulatory Commission.
- Nigerian license No. OYSGB/CASB/2592001 from the Oyo State Gaming and Lottery Authority.
Although 1win includes a full sportsbook offering, it is positioned more broadly as a multi-vertical gambling platform rather than a sportsbook-only brand.
For players in African markets, this positions company as an international operator rather than a brand focused on a single country.
1win is an international operator. The company is in demand in Africa. Especially in Nigeria, Tanzania, and Ghana.
Taxation. Tax rules depend on the player’s country. 1win does not follow one standard tax approach across all African markets, so players should check the local rules in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Tanzania, Cameroon, or their own country before betting.
Registration and Verification
Registration follows the standard account-opening process:
- Open the official 1win website or app.
- Click the registration button.
- Enter the required account details and create your login credentials.
- Complete the registration and sign in to your account.
- Open the cashier and make your first deposit before betting.
Verification is usually required at the withdrawal stage. While the identity check is in progress, access to withdrawals may be limited. To complete verification, the player may need to upload ID documents, confirm personal details, and follow any additional steps requested by the operator before larger withdrawals are approved.
How to Place a Bet
To place a bet, open the Sportsbook section and choose a sport or tournament. Then select a match from the pre-match or live list and click on the odds for the outcome you want to back. The selection will be added to the bet slip, where you can enter your stake and review the bet details before confirming it.
For an accumulator bet, add several selections to the bet slip before placing the wager. For live betting, odds and handicaps can change quickly while the event is in progress.
Refill and withdraw methods
In Kenya the cashier commonly includes M-Pesa and Airtel Money alongside cards and crypto. In addition to BTC and TRC20 USDT, the crypto section may also include TRC20, LTC, XRP, and BNB depending on the selected market.
