Availability in Kenya

Crypto-funded platforms are generally accessible from Kenya, and Smarkets accepts Kenyan customers. Regulated US venues are not available.

Regulation in Kenya

The Betting Control and Licensing Board regulates gambling in Kenya. Prediction markets are not covered by a specific local licence, so customers are using offshore platforms.

How prediction markets work here

You buy YES or NO positions in an event and can sell before it resolves. Most available venues require USDC rather than shillings.

Deposits and withdrawals

Stablecoins bought via local exchanges or P2P are the usual route. Mobile money is not accepted directly by prediction platforms.
