22BET Mobile App

22BET is another simplistic Nigerian bookmaker that offers Android and iOS apps to help you engage in sports betting and other gambling games. Perhaps the newest entry in the bookmaker world, 22BET was supposedly founded in 2017 and is run by Arcadia Hospitality. Unlike other Nigerian bookmakers, 22BET is licensed and regulated by the Anambra State Gaming Company and Oyo State Gaming Board. While this may raise some eyebrows, we would like to assure you that 22BET is entirely safe to gamble on.

While on paper 22BET looks like just another bookmaker, it has a bevvy of features that we think puts it ahead of many average bookmakers in the country. The fact that it has support for Android and iOS apps is enough reason for you to give it a try.

Let’s learn a bit more about 22BET in the following sections below.

It’s the official regional partner of the PSG football club, which should help reinforce your trust in it. Its offerings across sports and gambling games is another good reason to check it out while you compare your options.

How to Download and Install 22BET Mobile App for Android?

Installing the 22BET app on your Android device is pretty straightforward. Follow these steps:

1. Go to the Mobile apps page on the 22BET website

2. Click on ‘Download the Android App’. This will initiate a download of the APK file (< 20 MB)

   

3. Once downloaded, go to your device’s Settings, then Application Settings, and allow app installs from ‘unknown sources’. This is critical to be able to install the file

4. Find the APK file in your file manager and install it

Note – The application settings step is critical because otherwise your Android phone will not allow the install. We would like to reiterate that this is a completely safe method and will not harm your phone in any way.

System Requirements for Android

• Download space of 20 MB
• Installation space of 100 MB

How to Download and Install 22BET Mobile App for iOS?

Installing the iOS app is a bit tricky here. There are two ways to do it.

1. Go to your device’s Settings section

2. Change the iTunes and Apple Store settings to reflect your country/region as Nigeria. This is a critical step

3. If you are prompted for a payment page, enter ‘none’ and put random numbers/figures in the dialog boxes

4. Click on Next and complete the process until your country/region is set to Nigeria (or Cyprus)

5. Then either go to the Apple App Store via Safari or search for ‘22BET’ on the store app

6. You can also scroll to the bottom of the site and find the download button there.

22BET Mobile Version

The mobile version of 22BET is more prominent than the desktop version and it looks like the company gives more prominence to users using the mobile site.

The homepage is divided into sections that detail live events, top events, and casino slot games. In sports, the focus is naturally on soccer, cricket, and tennis. However, you can bet on over 1,000 different events on the site across games such as ice hockey, football, badminton, handball, snooker, and many more.

There is a simple menu on the right-hand side which lists all the major pages of the site. This includes jackpot, virtual games, live casino, TV games, and bonuses. The jackpot feature is a definite eye-grabber here and not that you see in most bookmakers here. In the Jackpot feature, you can bet on Toto football and stand a chance to win millions. This is across top events in the soccer sport.

Mobile Sports Betting

Placing a bet, depositing money, and withdrawing funds are not much different than other bookmakers. With 22BET, the only major change is that you get a 100% welcome bonus (up to €122) if you register via the app. So, make sure you download the app if you are a first-time user.

The focus on the top championships and top matches is another USP that we think puts the spotlight on the best games with the best odds. And in case you don’t find the odds high enough, there is a separate section where you can bet on games with enhanced odds. This is only available to mobile app users.

Mobile App Features

Some of the best features of the 22BET mobile app are:

• Large selection of sports, casino games, slots, and other gambling formats
• Live betting and results
• Jackpot feature for soccer tournaments
• Longterm bets option
• 100% welcome bonus

Differences Between Mobile App and Mobile Version

22BET has developed its apps the same way as its websites. We couldn’t find a single difference (other than the promotions) between the two. But there is definitely an advantage if you use the app because you get bonuses and also faster load time. Why depend on your browser when the platform itself provides an official app?

Usability and Impression

Apart from easy navigation and abundant options to choose from, there are some critical website features we would like to highlight:

• Ability to change time zone and language
• Odds format change
• Bet slip visibility
• Quick bet slip

These are also available on the mobile site on the right-hand side menu. We think it’s a great addition to an already great website that puts betting at the forefront. Only if you are interested in the casino and other games do you have to check them out. Otherwise, you can focus on your bets and strategy.

While a blog and tips section would have been nicer, we can’t really complain. This is because 22BET takes its new users into consideration and provides a FAQ-type information section at the end of the homepage. This is only available in the desktop version.

Pro Tip – If you are unable to use the mobile app, we recommend exploring the site on a desktop machine before registering. This way you can learn how the bet placing works and about other features.

Conclusion

22BET does not have many defining features other than the jackpot facility and ease of play. But in most cases, punters are looking at these two features only. However, it is our duty to inform you that we are not very satisfied with its security stance. Being on a free SSL certificate is fine for a blog but when you are handling personal and financial data. Moreover, the fact that it is not affiliated with any Nigerian agency also seems problematic. While you may not lose your money, we were unable to trace the history of 22BET.

It’s a fine website to check out and explore sports betting and other gambling forms. Should you put your hard-earned money in it in the long term is a question that you should ask yourself. This is especially when there are so many other bookmakers around.

But from a usability perspective, 22BET is spot-on. It’s a handy platform that gets most things right and will allow you to easily cash out your earnings. Check it out today!
