Best Betting Sites in Mozambique

Top 10 Online Bookmakers With Local Licenses

Under this section, I focus on a selection of the strongest licensed online betting websites in Mozambique. They combine a solid product, local payments, and a clear online presence. This is not a full list of every legal operator. According to the official register of the Inspeção Geral de Jogos, other licensed brands that we do not cover in detail here include Betyetu / Betvivo, BetArena, Ola Bet, Lucky Box, Megagame Live, TxunaBet, 888 Bet, eBet, Sahara Game, Lucky Lotto, Fidotech, Bacela Bet, HotSpot, Fortune Bet, SportyBet, Bet77, and several smaller operators.

Betway

I see Betway as one of the most established Mozambique betting sites. The site is run by a local operator under a Mozambican sports betting licence, which gives it a strong advantage in terms of trust compared with unlicensed offshore brands. The brand positions itself mainly as an online and mobile sportsbook, not as a big retail shop network. The offer is clearly built around football and other popular sports, plus quick games and jackpots that fit local habits.

For payments, Betway covers the most important Mobile Money methods. The official “How to deposit” page shows Vodacom M-Pesa for deposits and withdrawals, and the FAQ adds e-Mola and Recargaki as extra options. Some review sites claim that minimum deposits and withdrawals start from 1 MT and go up to 25,000 MT, but I could not confirm these limits directly on the site, so I treat them only as an estimate. In practice, Mobile Money is fast and convenient here; withdrawals are processed on Betway’s side straight away, but can take up to 24 hours to reach your wallet.

Most Mozambican punters bet from their phones, and Betway does a good job here. There is a mobile-optimised website plus a dedicated app, available for Android through direct APK download. The interface is simple enough, even if you are new to online betting. You can also switch between Portuguese and English, which helps users who are more comfortable in one of these languages.

On the sports side, Betway covers all of the big European football competitions, including the Premier League, Champions League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, and Bundesliga. Market depth on these leagues is strong: 1X2, double chance, draw no bet, totals, handicaps, corners, halves, player specials, and combos are all there. From our own odds checks, the average house margin on pre-match Premier League 1X2 is about 7.9% and on over/under around 6.1%. This is not super cheap, but it is in line with many African brands.

Live betting is also a key part of the product. At busy times, you can find several football matches live with 1X2, totals, double chance and other markets, although some small games temporarily show no markets while odds update. Our tests suggest that live margins are higher than pre-match, with around 11.25% on 1X2 and 12.8% on totals, so in-play prices are not the main strength here.

Betway offers cash out on many bets, so you can close a ticket early, and there is a Build a Bet feature for same-match multis. You also get the 2Up promo, where a football bet is settled as a win if your team goes two goals ahead, even if they later draw or lose.

On the promotions page, I only see three sports offers. The first is the 2Up I mentioned above. The second is Bet Influencer, where I share my bet and get a unique code; every time someone uses that code to bet, I earn 4% of their wager. The third is Betway Rewards, a loyalty programme that gives me points for every bet I place and lets me swap those points for cash at a rate of 1 MT per point. In terms of value, I see 2Up as very strong, because it works on normal bets and does not add any extra wagering requirements on top of what I already bet. Bet Influencer can also be valuable if I have active friends who bet a lot, but its benefit depends completely on how many people actually use my code. Betway Rewards looks simple and fair: I earn points while I bet as usual and then convert them to cash, instead of fighting heavy rollover rules. The small print for all three promos may include league restrictions, minimum odds or stake limits, so I always suggest checking the detailed terms before relying on them.

Betway also offers Aviator, instant games, and a full virtual sports lobby, which is important for players who like fast results between football bets.

Elephant Bet

I see Elephant Bet as one of the biggest local-style betting brands in Mozambique. The group behind it runs a large betting network across Africa and operates thousands of retail outlets in countries like Mozambique, Angola, and Sierra Leone. Local betting blogs describe Elephant Bet as an “emerging star” of the Mozambican market, helped by many physical points of sale where you can deposit and withdraw in cash.

For payments, Elephant Bet covers the key Mobile Money wallets. The official help pages show M-Pesa as a main method for deposits, and the site explains how to fund your account with this option step by step. A detailed guide on deposits and withdrawals for Elephant Bet Mozambique says bettors can use M-Pesa and e-Mola online, plus vouchers and cash at retail branches. One independent review also mentions minimum deposits from 1 MT and a minimum withdrawal of 70 MT via M-Pesa or e-Mola, but this is not written clearly on the official site, so I treat these figures as an estimate, not a hard rule. In day-to-day use, Mobile Money here feels practical: you can move money in and out through the same wallets you already use for other bills, or walk into a shop and pay in cash if you prefer.

Like most Mozambican bettors, I focus first on the mobile experience. Elephant Bet’s website is clearly built for phones: pages resize to your screen, there is no horizontal scrolling, and the menus are simple. The brand also promotes its Android app, which gives you access to sports, casino, and promotions in one place. It is not as “polished” as some global apps, but for a local operator, it is more than good enough to place quick bets on the go.

The site is available in Portuguese and English, with a separate /en/ version for international users. However, when I switch to English, I still see some buttons and menu items in Portuguese. This is a small thing if you understand both languages, but for strict English-only users, it can be confusing at first.

On the sports side, Elephant Bet covers all the big international football competitions: Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, and Bundesliga all appear in the sportsbook. In my checks, a typical Premier League match had roughly 120–170 markets. You get the basics (1X2, double chance, draw no bet, totals), plus many extra lines for halves, goals, corners, cards and more. For pricing, my own margin tests on Premier League pre-match odds gave an average of 5.04% on 1X2 and 6.9% on over/under. These numbers are actually quite competitive for Mozambique: 5.04% on match result is close to what many mid-tier European bookmakers offer, while 6.9% on totals is acceptable, though not super sharp.

Live betting is also strong. The live page usually shows around 15 football matches at busy times. The number of markets depends on the game, but I saw between 15 and 60 options, including 1X2, double chance, over/under, corners, cards, and others. Based on my sample, average live margins were about 9.95% on 1X2 and 10.8% on over/under. This is still high compared with pre-match, but a little better than some competitors that climb well above 11–12% on the same markets.

Elephant Bet also supports cash out and Bet Builder on selected matches, so you can close bets early or build same-game multis when the icons are shown.

Besides football, the platform also offers a good range of other sports. In the sports menu, I see basketball (including NBA), tennis and MMA, plus several smaller sports like rugby, darts, and Esports titles.

Elephant Bet is very aggressive with bonuses. The promotions page lists several sports offers, including a 300% first-deposit bonus, acca boosts, and risk-back offers for combo bets that lose by one leg. For the welcome sports offer, I see it as a classic first-bet insurance. If your first sports bet loses, Elephant Bet gives you a free bet of the same value, up to 10,000 MT, as long as your first stake is at least 1 MT. You then have to use that free bet on selections with total odds of 5.0 or higher within 15 days. In my view, the protection on the first bet is attractive, but the high minimum odds mean it is a high-risk, “one big shot” type of bonus rather than an easy, low-rollover offer. The promo list changes often, so I always tell readers to re-check the exact rules on the promotions page before committing.

Beyond sports, Elephant Bet pushes Aviator and other “crash” and virtual games. There are dedicated sections for Aviator, JetX and various virtual sports, which run 24/7 with quick results.

888bets

I see 888bets as a modern, online-first bookmaker with a big focus on Aviator and mobile betting. The brand presents itself as “the home of Aviator in Mozambique” and offers sports, casino, and instant games under a local Mozambican licence, which puts it in the same regulated group as the other major brands in the country.

For payments, 888bets keeps things simple. In the help centre, 888bets says it supports popular Mozambican mobile money services plus PayChangu, with instant deposits and withdrawals that are usually processed within minutes. This comes directly from the official payments page. The same page explains that minimum and maximum limits exist, but you only see the exact numbers inside the deposit/withdrawal screens after you log in. I could not find clear public information on the minimum stake either, so I treat this as unknown rather than a guess. In practice, this setup is good for Mozambican punters: Mobile Money covers everyday wallets, and PayChangu adds a gateway for people who prefer a more “bank-style” solution.

On mobile, 888bets does a good job. The site you see at m.888bets.co.mz is fully responsive: pages reshape to your screen and the navigation bar stays visible, so it is easy to move between sports, live bets, and games. There is also an Android app you can download directly from the website. For a Mozambican punter who mostly bets from a phone, this is exactly what you need: a light mobile site plus a dedicated app for regular use.

Language support is straightforward. There is a Portuguese version and a full English version under the /en/ path, so you can choose the interface that feels more natural.

On the sports side, 888bets focuses on the big international football leagues. In the football lobby, you can bet on the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Bundesliga, along with many smaller competitions. Top European games have roughly 150–200 markets each. You get match result, both teams to score, draw no bet, double chance, half-time result, “score in both halves,” and plenty of other options. The average margin I measured on Premier League pre-match 1X2 was 2.96%, which is very sharp for Mozambique and closer to European pricing than most local brands. For over/under, using a sample of La Liga games, the average margin was about 5.2%. These figures show that 888bets can be one of the most competitive options on pre-match prices. One downside is that 1X2 and over/under are not available on every single match, especially in smaller leagues, so you sometimes have to work with a slightly reduced menu.

Live betting is also well developed. When I checked, there were four football matches live, each with around 70–90 markets, including match result, both teams to score, double chance, handicaps, and more. The average live margin I calculated on football 1X2 was 9.8%, and on live over/under, it was about 11%. This is clearly higher than the pre-match edge, but it is still in the same range as other African bookmakers and not outrageously expensive for in-play betting. Cash out is available on most big matches, which adds flexibility if you like to manage risk during the game. Basketball (including NBA), tennis, and several other sports are also covered, although I could not find MMA markets at the time of checking.

Bonus-wise, 888bets is very active. On the promotions page, I see a 100% sports welcome offer, a weekly “Bet and Get” free-bet promo, a Lucky Number draw with high jackpot potential, a Multi Bonus that boosts your accumulator payouts up to 500%, and a Sky Conquest mission promotion with a large grand prize. The 100% Welcome Offer is a free-bet style deal. You register, make a deposit and place a multiple bet with at least two selections and total odds of 3.0 or more. When that bet settles, you receive a free bet equal to 100% of your stake, capped at 1,000 MT. The free bet is credited within 48 hours and is valid for 7 days; only the winnings from the free bet are paid out, not the stake. I see this as a medium-difficulty bonus; you need to risk your own money on a multi at odds 3.0+, but you do not face long rollover chains afterwards. For regular acca players, it is good extra value; for very cautious bettors who prefer low-odds singles, it is less attractive. Multi Bonus and Bet and Get are also aimed at accumulator fans and can add real money to winning slips, but only if you already like building multiples. Lucky Number and Sky Conquest are more like lottery-style extras with low entry costs and a small chance of a big hit.

Like many modern African bookmakers, 888bets puts Aviator at the centre of its offer. The site markets itself as the top Aviator community in Mozambique and runs separate promos such as Aviator cashback and Aviator cash drops. There are also virtual sports and other instant games in the lobby, so you always have something to play between football matches.

PremierBet

PremierBet is one of the most visible legal sports betting websites in Mozambique. It operates under a local licence from the Mozambican General Gaming Inspectorate (Inspecção Geral de Jogos), which means it is regulated under national gambling law. PremierBet combines an online platform with retail shops where players can buy vouchers and top up accounts in cash.

For payments, PremierBet focuses on mobile money, which is exactly what most Mozambican punters need. Deposits can be made via M-Pesa and e-Mola. For M-Pesa, the cashier shows a minimum deposit of 20 MT and a maximum of 10 000 MT per transaction. For e-Mola, the bookmaker does not clearly publish deposit limits; you see the exact range only inside the payment window after logging in. In addition to mobile money, players can fund their account with vouchers bought in PremierBet shops, which is convenient for those who mainly use cash. Deposits via both mobile money and vouchers are processed instantly; withdrawals are described in reviews as “quick”, but without firm public timings, so it is safer to treat the exact payout speed as variable rather than guaranteed.

From a usability angle, PremierBet is clearly built with mobile users in mind, but the execution is mixed. In mobile browsers, the site is not very well adapted: on some screens, the right-hand side of the page is cut off, elements overlap, and navigation to specific sections (for example, promos or detailed markets) can be clumsy. For serious betting, this quickly becomes annoying. The good news is that there is a dedicated Android app, downloadable directly from the PremierBet website, and this app generally offers a cleaner, more stable experience than the mobile web version.

The website interface is available in both English and Portuguese, and you can switch between the two in just one click.

In terms of sports coverage, PremierBet focuses heavily on international football. All major European competitions are present, including the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga. For top leagues, you typically get around 70 pre-match markets per game. These cover all the expected options: 1X2, totals, double chance, draw no bet, handicaps, first and second half markets, and some combos. The average margin on 1X2 for Premier League matches is 4.94%, which is quite competitive for the Mozambican market. The average margin on over/under markets is 6%, slightly higher but still acceptable for regular betting. Overall, pre-match pricing is reasonable, and the choice of markets is broad enough for most bettors.

Live betting is one of PremierBet’s key selling points. At busy times, you can see close to 90 live football matches available at once, plus in-play options on other sports like basketball and tennis. The number of live markets per match usually ranges from 5 to 25, focusing on the essentials: 1X2, next goal, totals, double chance, draw no bet, handicaps, odd/even, and a few period-based markets. The average margin on 1X2 live markets is 13.5%, and on live totals it is 12.9%. These are high margins by any standard and significantly reduce the long-term value for serious in-play bettors.

On the feature side, PremierBet performs better. Cash out is available on many matches and market types, while Bet Builder is offered on selected games. The promo section also highlights extras such as “2 Goals Up” early-payout offers, bet insurance, odds boosts, risk-free boosts, and live streaming via Premier Bet TV. Together, these tools make the live product attractive from a usability perspective, even if the odds themselves are not very sharp.

Beyond football, the sportsbook covers a wide range of other sports, including basketball (with a strong focus on the NBA), tennis, MMA, and more niche sports. For most of these, the depth of markets is more modest than for top-tier football but still enough for everyday betting.

The bonus system is extensive and clearly designed for active customers rather than one-time bonus hunters. The headline welcome offer is a 200% sports bonus on your first deposit, up to 3 000 MT. You make a qualifying deposit, receive double that amount as a bonus, and can also unlock daily free bets for the first five days if you deposit at least 65 MT. The trade-off is in the conditions: you must roll over the sum of the deposit plus the bonus 5 times in accumulator bets with at least two selections, each at minimum odds of 2.00, and complete this within 14 days. For punters who bet frequently on high-odds multiples, this is achievable, but for casual users, it will be difficult to fully clear.

There are also ongoing sports promotions. For example, the Live Betting Free Bet promo gives you a 100 MT free bet for every 10 live bets with a minimum stake of 100 MT and minimum odds of 1.20, with a cap of three free bets per week. The free bets must then be used at minimum odds of 1.50 and expire after seven days. Another recurring offer targets basketball, especially the NBA. Place an accumulator with at least three selections, including one NBA leg, each at odds of 2.00 or higher. On your first qualifying bet each week, you get a matched free bet up to 100 MT. The free bet must be used at minimum odds of 1.50 and expires after seven days. These promos work like a small rebate on volume for regular bettors, but given the high live margins, they do not fully compensate for the price disadvantage.

Outside of traditional sports betting, PremierBet offers a wide range of additional content. The site includes virtual sports, crash games such as Aviator, wheel-style games, and lotteries.

Placard (Sojogo)

Placard.co.mz is the online sports betting and gaming brand of Sojogo (Social Gaming Management Association of Mozambique), licensed by the Ministry of Economy and Finance and the General Gaming Inspectorate. The sportsbook is powered by BtoBet’s Neuron 3 platform, the same technology Sojogo uses for its online and retail channels. This puts Placard firmly in the “official,” regulated segment of the Mozambican market, rather than among offshore brands.

For payments, Placard ticks the key boxes for Mozambique. Deposits and withdrawals are available via M-Pesa and e-Mola, which cover the two most important mobile money wallets in the country. The minimum deposit is just 1 MT, so even very small-stake bettors can get started. The minimum withdrawal is 20 MT, and the maximum withdrawal per transaction is 20 000 MT, which should be enough for most recreational punters.

The website itself is well optimised for mobile. On a smartphone, there is no horizontal scrolling, blocks do not overlap, and menus remain usable even on smaller screens. Combined with the dark background and large typography, this makes Placard easy to navigate on mobile data and in low light. There is no separate native app for Mozambique at the time of writing, but the mobile browser version is strong enough to serve as the main way to bet.

Placard is available in both English and Portuguese. However, even when you select the English version, some buttons and menu labels remain in Portuguese. This is not a critical issue, but new users who rely entirely on English can find certain prompts or promo names slightly confusing at first.

Football coverage is one of Placard’s main strengths. You get all the major European and international competitions, including the Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and others. For top matches, the offer is deep: usually around 150-200 markets per game, including 1X2, totals, double chance, halves, goals, corners, player props, and various combos. The average margin on the 1X2 market for Premier League games is about 5%, and the over/under margin is around 8.5%. This makes Placard competitive, but not market-leading, on its main 1X2 lines. Totals are clearly more expensive; value-focused bettors will see the 8.5% margin as high, while casual punters are more likely to care about the wide choice of markets than the extra percentage in the margin.

Live betting is well developed, too. Football matches typically come with 30–100 in-play markets, from the basics (1X2, totals, handicaps) through to goals, halves, and some combo options. The average live 1X2 margin for football is around 11.2%, which is high, especially compared to the pre-match odds. This makes the platform less attractive for dedicated in-play bettors who care about long-term returns. The average margin on live totals for football is around 10.6%, which is only slightly lower than the 11.2% on 1X2 and still high by most standards.

On the product side, Sojogo’s deal with BtoBet mentions modern features such as Bet Builder and player markets on the Neuron 3 platform. Placard’s social media also highlights “better cash out” as a selling point, so bettors can expect cash out and some advanced bet-construction options on key events.

Beyond football, Placard offers a broad sportsbook with basketball (including the NBA), tennis, boxing, and a range of other sports.

Placard’s bonus system is busy and clearly aimed at keeping customers active over time. The headline sports offer is the Welcome Mega Bonus 75%: you get a 75% bonus on your first deposit, up to 3 000 MT, usable on sportsbook or crash games. The structure, however, is demanding. Your deposit plus bonus must be wagered at least 7 times before the funds can turn into a real-money balance. Each qualifying bet must have at least three selections at minimum odds of 3.00 per pick; bets with lower odds are allowed, but they do not count towards wagering. There is also a maximum qualifying stake of 100 MT per bet and a cap on the real-money winnings you can convert, limited to 1x the bonus amount. These restrictions make the bonus high-risk and hard to fully clear, even though the initial minimum deposit is only 1 MT.

There is also a recurring registration-style promotion that advertises a guaranteed share of a 100 000 MT pool for 200 new users in a given month. The terms here are relatively simple (successfully register, have no fraud history), but the exact share each player receives and the format of the reward can change from campaign to campaign, so it should be seen as a nice extra rather than a fixed welcome package.

For existing customers, Placard runs a weekly sports cashback called “Mola de Volta.” VIP bettors who stake at least 500 MT on sports in a week can get 7–10% cashback on their net losses. The exact percentage and maximum amount depend on their VIP level, from 7% up to 2 000 MT at lower tiers to 10% up to 6 000 MT at the top tier. This is a meaningful rebate for high-volume punters, but it only kicks in once you are inside the VIP system and staking decent amounts, so it will not move the needle for true small-stakes users.

Outside sports betting, Placard includes a wide range of casino-style content. Aviator and other crash games are very prominent, and there are also virtual sports for those who like to switch between verticals inside one account.

1xBet

1xBet Mozambique is the local arm of the global 1xBet brand, aimed at bettors who value deep markets and sharp odds. It works mainly online, with at least one branded shop in Maputo for cash deposits, while most customers elsewhere fund their accounts via mobile money or other online payments.

For payments, 1xBet covers all key mobile wallets in Mozambique. You can deposit and withdraw via M-Pesa, e-Mola and mKesh, plus cash through 1xBet partner outlets. Mobile money deposits start from 20 MZN with no fees and are processed instantly. Cash deposits are also instant, with a higher minimum of 45 MZN. Withdrawals use the same channels but with slightly different limits: 20 MZN minimum for mobile wallets and 90 MZN for cash, with processing times advertised at around 15 minutes and no extra fees. The minimum stake per selection is 1.4 MZN, which makes the site accessible even for very small-stake bettors. Maximum limits are not clearly stated in public pages and will depend on the method and account status.

The main desktop version of the site is not well adapted to smaller smartphone screens: the right side can get cut off, and navigating menus or markets is awkward. In practice, it is better to use either the dedicated mobile version or the native apps. 1xBet offers Android and iOS apps you can download from the site. They are easier to use than the main site, with clearer menus and quicker live market loading.

The interface is available in English and Portuguese, so both local and international users can choose the language they are more comfortable with.

On the sports side, 1xBet is one of the strongest betting sites in this article. All major international competitions are covered, including the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and many others. For the big international leagues, the depth of markets is outstanding; for example, many Premier League matches have more than 1 000 pre-match markets. These include 1X2, both teams to score, double chance, totals, handicaps, goals, intervals, result + total, Asian lines, and a large set of player and team props. The average margin on the 1X2 market for Premier League games is about 1.55%, and the over/under margin is around 1.53%. These numbers are extremely low for a traditional bookmaker and closer to exchange-style pricing than to local competitors. For price-sensitive bettors, this is a major advantage.

Live coverage is also very strong. At the time of checking, around 28 football matches were available for live betting, with most games offering 300–400 live markets. Again, this goes far beyond the basics; you get live 1X2, double chance, totals, handicaps, goals, intervals, result + total, and a variety of combo and Asian options. The average live margin on 1X2 for football is about 6.1%, and on live totals it is roughly 5.49%. These figures are higher than in pre-match but still noticeably better than what many competing Mozambican betting sites offer in play. Cash out is widely available, and Bet Builder can be used on many football matches, which is useful if you like to build custom same-game multiples.

Beyond football, 1xBet covers a long list of sports: basketball (including the NBA), tennis, MMA and many more. For the most popular competitions, the market depth is still substantial, though not always at the “thousand markets” level you see on top football.

The bonus section is busy. The main offer for new users is a 200% first deposit bonus. To get it, you register, opt in to bonus offers, and make a first deposit of at least 70 MZN. The maximum total bonus is 13 200 MZN. The bonus is split into two equal parts. Half of the bonus is allocated to sports bets and has to be turned over five times in multiples. Each multiple must include at least three picks, and a minimum of three of those selections need odds of 1.40 or higher. The other half is for 1xGames and must be wagered 30 times on eligible games. You have 30 days from registration to use the bonus; after that, any remaining bonus and associated winnings expire. In theory, this bonus can be valuable because of the large potential amount and the strong odds, but in practice, the rollover is demanding, especially the 30x requirement on 1xGames.

Existing customers get access to a long list of ongoing promotions. There are extra deposit bonuses on selected days (for example, Wednesday and Friday reloads up to 20 000 MZN), “no-risk” bets where you receive a refund if a specific wager loses, bonuses for a series of losing bets, promotional code shop offers, app-specific bonuses for using the mobile application, enhanced cash out features, and referral rewards. There are also sports-focused promotions such as Accumulator of the Day and birthday bonuses, plus TOTO pools with special offers. These promos add extra value for active bettors, but they also come with their own terms, minimum odds and turnover rules, so you need to read each offer carefully.

Outside sports betting, 1xBet Mozambique offers 1xGames, lotto, and a range of Esports markets. At the time of checking, there was no clearly labelled Aviator or dedicated virtual sports section on the website.

BetWinner

BetWinner Mozambique is the local version of the international BetWinner brand. It operates fully online without a retail shop network, so it mainly targets users who are comfortable depositing via mobile money and betting through the website or app. Compared with some “official” state-linked operators, BetWinner positions itself as a more price-driven, high-market-depth alternative rather than a lottery-style platform.

For payments, BetWinner focuses on mobile money and keeps things simple. Deposits can be made via e-Mola and Vodacom (M-Pesa), plus GG Bank for card or bank-style top-ups. According to the cashier, e-Mola deposits start from 10 MZN and go up to 25 000 MZN per transaction, while Vodacom (M-Pesa) deposits start from just 1 MZN, also up to 25 000 MZN. GG Bank deposits have a minimum of 1 EUR and a maximum of 10 000 EUR. All deposit methods are fee-free and processed instantly. Withdrawals are available via e-Mola and Vodacom, with minimums of 20 MZN and 1 MZN, respectively, and maximums up to 6 000 000 MZN on e-Mola and 25 000 MZN on Vodacom, usually processed within about 15 minutes and with no extra fees. There is also Papara for RUB withdrawals, but this is less relevant for most Mozambican users.

From a usability perspective, the main desktop layout is not ideal on smaller smartphone screens: the right edge of the page can be cut off, and menus are awkward to navigate. In practice, it is better to use the dedicated mobile version of the site or the Android app, which can be downloaded directly from the website. The mobile site and app present the same content in a more compact layout, making it easier to browse markets and manage live bets on a phone.

Language support is broad. The site supports English, Portuguese, and many other interface languages, so you can easily switch between them.

On the sports side, BetWinner offers very wide coverage. Major international football tournaments and leagues are all present, including the Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and many others. For top matches in major leagues, BetWinner often lists around 1 000 pre-match markets. These go far beyond simple 1X2 and include double chance, both teams to score, handicaps, totals, goals by player and team, time intervals, result + total, Asian lines, and other options. The average margin on 1X2 for Premier League games is around 5.4%, and the over/under margin is about 5.31%. These numbers are not as low as the very sharpest operators in Mozambique, but they are still on the competitive side and clearly better than many state-linked brands. For regular bettors who value choice of markets, this is a solid trade-off between price and depth.

The live section is similarly large. Football matches typically come with 500+ in-play markets, again covering 1X2, double chance, both teams to score, totals, handicaps, goals, intervals, result + total, and various Asian options. The average live margin on 1X2 for football is about 5.71%, while the margin on live totals is roughly 5.3%. This is only slightly higher than the pre-match margins and quite low for live betting, where many online sports betting websites push margins towards or above 7–8%. For punters who like to bet in play but still care about odds quality, this is one of BetWinner’s main strengths.

The site also highlights an Advancebet feature, which allows customers to place extra wagers using the potential returns from unsettled bets. There is no clearly labelled cash out or Bet Builder tool in the local interface.

Beyond football, BetWinner covers basketball, including the NBA, tennis, MMA and a long list of other sports.

The promotions section is busy, with a mix of welcome and ongoing offers. The headline for new customers is the 100% first deposit bonus up to 7 000 MZN. To qualify, you must register, complete your account details, opt in to bonuses, and make a first deposit of at least 65 MZN. The bonus amount must then be wagered 5 times in accumulator bets. Each accumulator needs at least three selections, all at minimum odds of 1.40 or higher. You cannot withdraw until the rollover is completed, and the bonus cannot be combined with other promotions. The 5x rollover on accumulator bets is moderate by industry standards. Regular bettors who often build multiples at odds of 1.40 or higher can clear it, but occasional users may find it difficult to unlock the full bonus.

Existing customers get access to several recurring offers. These include a weekly 100% reload bonus for deposits on selected days, sports cashback, a “Bet and Win” 30-day marathon where you place daily accumulator bets to earn promo codes for free bets, a promo code store where you can redeem points for betting vouchers, Accumulator of the Day boosts, a bonus for a series of losing bets, birthday rewards, and other small incentives. In practice, these promotions mainly reward high-volume play. They can add real extra value if you bet regularly, but each one has its own rules on minimum odds, bet types and timing, so you still need to read the terms carefully.

On the Mozambican site, the focus beyond sports is on Win Games and Esports. I did not see a clearly labelled Aviator or dedicated virtual sports section, which can be a downside for some users.

Jogabets

Jogabets is a locally licensed Mozambican bookmaker operated by JogaBets S.A. and authorised by the Government of Mozambique to offer sports betting and gaming online. It is an online-first brand with no visible nationwide shop network, so most customers bet via the website or mobile apps rather than over-the-counter slips.

For payments, Jogabets covers the two key mobile wallets in Mozambique. Deposits and withdrawals are available via M-Pesa and e-Mola, which makes the site easy to use for punters who already pay bills and top up airtime with these services. The cashier shows a minimum withdrawal of 100 MZN; other detailed limits and per-transaction caps are not clearly published on open pages.

The website is well adapted to mobile screens. On a smartphone, pages resize to the display without horizontal scrolling; odds tables, side menus, and betslip elements do not overlap each other. This makes it practical to browse thousands of markets and manage live bets on a small screen. Jogabets also offers dedicated Android and iOS apps, downloaded via QR codes on the site, but they are branded as Meridianbet while still mirroring the Jogabets layout and features.

Language support is straightforward: you can switch between English and Portuguese, which covers both local users and many expats.

On the sports side, Jogabets is very strong on depth. All major international football competitions are offered, including the Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and many others. For headline events such as English Premier League matches, Jogabets can list more than 3 000 pre-match markets. These go far beyond the usual 1X2 and totals and include both teams to score, double chance, player props, half-time and full-time specials, time intervals, combo bets, and more. However, this variety comes at a price: the average margin on the 1X2 market for Premier League games is about 10.8%, and on over/under, it is around 9.17%. These figures are high by international standards and higher than the sharper Mozambican and offshore brands. Jogabets, therefore, suits bettors who value market variety and features more than getting the absolute best odds.

Live betting is also well developed but follows the same pattern. Most football matches offer a few dozen in-play markets, including live 1X2, totals, both teams to score, double chance, double bets, and other core options. The average margin for live 1X2 football is roughly 10.83%, and the average live over/under margin is about 8.84%. This keeps Jogabets clearly in the “recreational” camp. There are enough options to make live betting fun, but if you are hunting for sharp value, the odds will feel a bit heavy.

Feature-wise, Jogabets does a lot to enhance the ticket. Early Payout lets you win your bet once your team or player reaches a specified advantage (for example, two goals up in football), regardless of the final result. There is also a Bet Builder tool for creating same-game multiples, plus “Single Boost” and “Bet Boost” mechanics that enhance odds on selected markets. Together, these tools make the product feel modern even if the underlying odds are not especially sharp.

Beyond football, Jogabets offers a broad sportsbook with basketball (including NBA), tennis, MMA, and many other sports.

The main welcome offer is a 100% first-deposit bonus up to 3 000 MZN. To qualify, you open an account, make a first deposit and roll over the deposit amount three times on sports bets with total odds above 2.00. Once this wagering is completed, Jogabets credits a bonus equal to your original deposit, up to the 3 000 MZN cap. Only sports tickets count towards the rollover, but the terms also say that Keno, virtual sports and Lotto tickets contribute, which is unusual and slightly blurs the line between sports and games. You must email customer support after meeting the turnover to have the bonus applied, and the operator gives itself up to 48 working hours to credit the funds. Overall, the 3x rollover is relatively soft compared with many competitors, but the manual email step and 2.00 minimum odds mean it still requires some discipline to extract full value.

Existing customers can access several ongoing promotions. These include early payout offers on football and basketball, “Money Back” style insurance on certain high-odds bets, 5/10-minute specials, and a “Super Bonus” on accumulators. Together, these promos are mainly geared towards active users who bet regularly rather than occasional visitors placing a single weekend accumulator.

Outside sports betting, Jogabets pushes its Joga Games casino section, which includes Aviator and a wide range of instant and slot-style games, as well as lottery and clearly labelled virtual sports.

22Bet

22Bet Mozambique is the local version of the international 22Bet brand, operating as an online-only bookmaker without a visible retail shop network. It targets users who are comfortable managing their accounts entirely on the web or through mobile apps, with a focus on big international football, lots of markets, and a busy promotions page rather than state-lottery style coupons.

For payments, 22Bet Mozambique supports e-Mola, along with Visa and Mastercard. This covers one of the key mobile money wallets plus bank cards, but leaves out M-Pesa and mKesh, which many Mozambican punters use for everyday payments. On the public pages, the bookmaker does not clearly list minimum and maximum deposit or withdrawal amounts for each method, and the exact limits and processing times only appear once you access the cashier from a logged-in account. In practice, this means 22Bet is convenient if you already use e-Mola or cards, but it is less flexible than brands that support the full set of local wallets.

The main desktop layout is not well optimised for smaller smartphone screens. When you open the full site in a mobile browser, the right side gets cut off. You often have to scroll sideways to see the odds, buttons or betslip, which is awkward for quick bets. To work around this, 22Bet offers dedicated Android and iOS apps that you can download directly from the website. These apps present the same content in a mobile-first layout and are generally a smoother way to use the platform on a phone.

Language options are simple: the Mozambican site is available in English and Portuguese, so most local users can pick the interface they are more comfortable with.

On pure sports coverage and market depth, 22Bet is one of the heavier hitters in this comparison. All the major international football tournaments and leagues are present, including the Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and many others. For big events, such as Premier League matches, 22Bet often lists more than 4 000 pre-match markets. These include 1X2, double chance, draw no bet, both teams to score, a wide range of totals and handicaps, half-time/full-time, odd/even, player and team props, and various combo options. The average margin on 1X2 for Premier League games is about 3.93%, and the over/under margin is around 3.95%. For a traditional bookmaker, those numbers are very competitive: not quite as ultra-low as the sharpest operator in this article, but clearly better than most mass-market Mozambican brands.

Live betting follows the same “lots of choice” approach. Popular football games usually come with several hundred in-play markets, covering live 1X2, double chance, both teams to score, totals, handicaps, odd/even, half-time/full-time, and more specialised options. The trade-off is that live margins are noticeably higher than pre-match ones. The average 1X2 margin for live football is roughly 7.37%, and the average over/under margin is about 7.03%. These figures are fairly typical for mainstream bookmakers but no longer stand out as “value” in the way pre-match odds do. There are Boosted Odds icons on some markets and a dedicated “Boost Your Odds” promotion for combo bets, but the Mozambican interface does not prominently advertise separate cash out or Bet Builder controls.

Beyond football, 22Bet covers basketball (including the NBA), tennis, MMA and a long list of other sports and competitions, so multi-sport bettors will not feel restricted.

The main sports welcome offer is a 100% first-deposit bonus up to 7 500 MZN. To get it, you select the bonus when registering, make a first deposit of at least 75 MZN, and the bonus is credited automatically. You then need to wager the bonus amount five times in accumulator bets. Each accumulator must contain at least two selections, and the combined odds have to be 2.00 or higher. You have seven days to complete this turnover, and only settled bets count; returned, cancelled or cashed out bets do not contribute. The 5x rollover on the bonus alone is moderate, but the seven-day deadline and 2.00 minimum odds make the offer demanding for casual users who only place a few bets per week. It is more attractive for active bettors prepared to plan their multiples around the conditions.

Existing customers have access to several recurring promotions. There is a “Champion’s Return” reload bonus of 100% up to 4 300 MZN for returning customers, jackpot-style offers that reward a sequence of deposits and bets with the chance to win large amounts in free bets, weekly Saturday reloads with free-bet rewards up to 7 500 MZN, odds-boost promotions on combo bets, and birthday gifts. All of these can add extra value if you bet regularly, but each comes with its own turnover rules, minimum odds and time limits, so you need to check the small print before opting in.

Outside traditional sports betting, 22Bet Mozambique offers Esports markets and a dedicated virtual sports section, which will suit users who enjoy simulated football or other virtual events. When I checked, I didn’t see any clearly labelled Aviator-style crash game on the Mozambican site.

Hollywoodbets

Hollywoodbets Mozambique is the local version of the South African brand, licensed and regulated by the Mozambican gambling authority and operating as a legal online sportsbook in the country. The platform is clearly built around mobile access rather than a traditional network of high-street shops, so most users place bets via the mobile site rather than over-the-counter slips.

For payments, Hollywoodbets covers the two key mobile money services in Mozambique. Deposits and withdrawals are available via M-Pesa and e-Mola, which is exactly what most local punters expect from a serious bookmaker. You can also top up using Holly Top Up Vouchers, which are bought offline and redeemed online; this makes the site accessible even for users who prefer to use cash. The operator does not clearly publish minimum and maximum deposit or withdrawal limits on public pages; external reviews mention a maximum withdrawal of 25 000 MT per transaction and 50 000 MT per day with no deposit cap, but these figures should still be treated as indicative rather than official. In practice, payments are well adapted to the local market, but transparency on exact limits could be better.

The site itself looks and feels like it was designed for mobile first. On a smartphone, the pages resize cleanly, there is no horizontal scrolling, and core elements such as odds tables, menus and the betslip do not overlap each other. Navigation is straightforward, which makes it easy to move between sports, markets, and live events on a small screen. I did not find clearly advertised Android or iOS apps for the Mozambican site, so the main way to use Hollywoodbets here is via a mobile browser rather than a native application.

The interface is available in both English and Portuguese, so most local users can choose the language they are more comfortable with.

In terms of sports coverage, Hollywoodbets focuses on major international competitions. The sportsbook includes the Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Serie A, Bundesliga, and several other popular tournaments. For big international matches, you usually see a few dozen pre-match markets, including 1×2, double chance, both teams to score, handicaps, combos, totals, corners, half-time/full-time, and more. The average margin on the 1×2 market for Premier League matches is around 8.48%, while the average over/under margin is about 6.83%. These numbers are higher than at the sharper international online bookies in this article, but still acceptable for a recreational brand. In practice, you pay a little extra in margin for a simple, localised product.

Live betting follows the same philosophy. At the time of checking, there were around ten football matches available in the live section. Each offered a standard set of markets such as live 1×2, totals, handicaps, draw no bet, both teams to score, half-time/full-time, and a few additional options. The average margin for live 1×2 football was about 7.83%, and for live over/under around 6.1%. These values are slightly lower than the pre-match 1×2 margin but still on the “recreational” side rather than pure value. In other words, there is enough choice to make live betting enjoyable, but odds-sensitive punters notice that the prices are not as sharp as on some international competitors.

On the feature side, Hollywoodbets supports cash out on many football matches, which lets you settle your bet before the final whistle and lock in a profit or cut a loss.

Beyond football, the site also covers basketball (including the NBA), tennis, MMA, and several other sports, so multi-sport bettors will find enough variety.

Promotions are a weak spot at the moment. During the review, there were no active promotions or welcome offers highlighted on the site. This puts Hollywoodbets behind many rivals that compete aggressively on sign-up offers and ongoing sports promos.

Outside traditional sports betting, Hollywoodbets Mozambique offers a solid range of instant games and virtuals. Aviator is prominently featured, and there are other crash-style games, as well as a dedicated virtual sports section with simulated football and other events.
