In 2024, Tanzania became one of the first African countries to welcome PariPesa, a competitive sportsbook now tailored to the local market. The localized version offers Tanzanian bettors a unique experience with market-specific promotions and features. The range of services is hard to match, extending to over 50 sports, and housing a massive casino library, all nicely packed in a native app. To top it off, some of the most popular local and international payment methods are supported as well.
The biggest draw however is the bonus selection of PariPesa. Not only is there a special starting deal (sports and casino) for local punters but everybody gets to benefit from rakeback, a loyalty program, and recurring reload deals. As you can see for yourself, there is plenty to talk about. So, let’s dive right in and check out in detail what the betting venue is all about.
Getting Started (Registration)
Tanzanian punters mainly need their mobile phones to get started. First, enter it in the designated field on the form, making sure you keep the same format as shown. Make sure it is correct and hit the Send SMS option to get an activation code.
Once you get the SMS from PariPesa, type in the code and proceed to select Shilling as your currency. Also, you can input a promo code in case you are in possession of one.
Then, pick a password you want to use for accessing your account, accept the terms, and confirm everything by pressing Register. With all that carried out, you will be ready to start wagering. Just don’t forget that you will also need to do the KYC before you can withdraw freely.

Android App
PariPesa only offers its Android app in Tanzania, which is no surprise given the dominant market share of Google’s OS. Furthermore, the minimum system requirements are just Android 4.1, meaning you can technically run it on any phone/tablet. For that, however, you will need to install it manually. To do this, head over to the Tanzanian version of the sportsbook, navigate to the app’s page, and obtain the apk file from there. After that, they enable the option for installations from unknown sources and proceed with installing the app. For those with iPhones/iPads on the other hand, using the mobile version of the betting site provides access to the same range of services.

New users can benefit from a 100% bonus on their first top-up, up to 280,000 TZS. A minimum funding of 3,000 TZS is required to trigger the deal, and the bonus must be staked five times in accumulators with three legs or more. The bonus and any winnings will be forfeited if the offer’s rollover is not met within a month of triggering it.

The VIP Club of the sportsbook offers exclusive benefits to its most loyal customers, including cashback on bets, a personal manager for tailored support, and access to a private chat channel for first-hand information on promotions.
