Surebetsite really gets interested in newly launched betting sites if they have nothing new to offer. We however are usually among the first to notice and investigate any betting site in East and West Africa.
So when I got wind of a new site called BongoBongo, I could not help but find more information about the site and even test their website and services.
The findings I made had to be preserved in a written article since they hit me hard. Never before had I thought that a new betting site would surprise me with features I had never seen before in my 5 years experience in the betting industry. In this article I will give you the details of Bongobongo and what makes it different, but first things first.
WHAT IS BONGOBONGO
Bongobongo is a new betting site in East Africa that has joined the crowded betting market. It is registered under the law of Kenya under Kensen Limited and regulated by the Betting Control & Licensing Board in Kenya under License No.0000155.
THE LOOK
Bongobongo can be distinguished from the vast majority of betting sites in Kenya by their distinctive mix of different shades of blue. Their website is also almost completely different with a simpler and cleaner look while leaving a lot of breathing space to elements on display. On visiting the website, the first thing you will see is the betting site's paybill number and their impressive logo just below after. A sleek clean menu of 5 items follows. Alerts of the most popular matches and attractive offers follow. The main content Starts with the day's highlights then a menu for the most popular leagues such as the English Premier League, Bundesliga etc.
Scrolling further down is an elaborate menu for other categories of facilities such as live bets, virtual sports etc.
THE FEEL
As I told you, I have many years of experience in the betting industry and I know virtually all betting sites in East and West Africa. Truth is , never before have I agreed so much with the feel of a betting site. The fonts are artistic and rounded at the tips, the contrast of menus and matches against a backdrop of holding boxes is almost therapeutic. The website is responsive even to the smallest touch. Using it feels like a breeze. Unlike many existing betting sites, Bongobongo is optimized for various devices such as mobile, tablet and desktop. This is a site which feels like a 5 start internet service at your fingertips.

The minimum you can stake on Bongobongo is Ksh. 20 and the maximum winnings per day is Ksh. 4 million.
The minimum withdrawal from Bongobongo is Ksh. 200. This is one of the site's biggest drawbacks. We all know Kenyans like to withdraw whatever they have for subsistence needs. So long as a Ksh. 20 is accepted as a stake, then at least Ksh. 50 should be able to be withdrawn.

CONCLUSION
After trying the services of Bongobongo I have to accept that I am astonished and excited by the kind of talent that took time todesignand create their website. It has a classy feel, a welcoming appearance and easy to find and use features. Their bet slip is modern yet simple. Their mix of normal bets, live bets, virtuals and jackpot make it complete, comprehensive and obviously worthy trying.
The main drawback of the site is the fact that the minimum withdrawal is Ksh, 200. I hope they change their minds to allow smaller withdrawals to say Ksh. 50.
On a scale of 1-10, I would give Bongobongo a decisive 8.
