How to play
One shared bingo card, one draw for everyone, and a new round every 23 seconds.
The table
Everyone at the table plays the same 5 × 5 card, with columns B, I, N, G and O. Each round the server draws one number from the card, and it lands for every player at the same moment. Any line you hold that contains that number wins.
Your first round
- Create your account. Sign up with your name, date of birth and Kenyan mobile number, then enter the code we text you. You must be 18 or older.
- Add credit. Deposit from M-Pesa in the Wallet. Excise duty of 5% is deducted from each deposit and paid to KRA.
- Choose a stake. Tap KES 10, KES 20, KES 50, KES 100, or tap ✎ and type any whole amount from KES 5 to KES 500. The stake is per line.
- Pick up to 4 lines. Tap rows, columns or diagonals and mix them as you like. Each line costs one stake, so 4 lines at KES 20 cost KES 80. Quick pick chooses a line for you.
- Lock in. For the first 15 seconds you can add, drop or switch lines. Then the table locks and every entry is final. Your stake stays the same for the whole round.
- Watch the draw. The shared number lands, and winning lines pay straight into your wallet.

What each line pays
Every column on the card shows its multiplier and its chance of holding the drawn number. The five column multipliers are shuffled every round, so look at the card before you pick. Rows and diagonals always pay 4.5×.
| Line | Pays | Chance each round | KES 20 line returns |
|---|---|---|---|
| Column | 3× | 30% | KES 60 |
| Column | 3.6× | 25% | KES 72 |
| Column | 4.5× | 20% | KES 90 |
| Column | 6× | 15% | KES 120 |
| Column | 9× | 10% | KES 180 |
| Any row or diagonal | 4.5× | 20% | KES 90 |
15× rounds
About 1 round in 10 is a 15× round, marked on the card. The five column multipliers are a different set, and the higher the multiplier, the less often it lands:
| Line | Pays | Chance each round | KES 20 line returns |
|---|---|---|---|
| Column | 2.5× | 36% | KES 50 |
| Column | 3× | 30% | KES 60 |
| Column | 5× | 18% | KES 100 |
| Column | 9× | 10% | KES 180 |
| Column | 15× | 6% | KES 300 |
| Any row or diagonal | 4.5× | 20% | KES 90 |
The return includes your stake: a KES 20 line on a 6× column returns KES 120, which is your KES 20 back plus KES 100.
4 lines: higher multipliers
The moment your ticket has all 4 lines, every line on it switches to a higher set of multipliers. Everyone holding 4 lines sees the same higher set. Drop back to 3 lines and the normal set returns.
| Line | 1–3 lines | 4 lines |
|---|---|---|
| Column | 2.5× | 2.6× |
| Column | 3× | 3.2× |
| Column | 3.6× | 3.8× |
| Column | 4.5× | 4.8× |
| Column | 5× | 5.3× |
| Column | 6× | 6.4× |
| Column | 9× | 9.6× |
| Column | 15× | 16× |
| Any row or diagonal | 4.5× | 4.8× |
One number can sit on several of your lines at once, for example where a row crosses a column. Every line holding it pays, so the multipliers add up: a 4.5× row crossing a 6× column pays 10.5× if that number is drawn. The card marks these crossings with their combined multiplier while you pick, and a crossing that hits glows in rainbow colours.
If you hold several lines and only a low-paying one hits, you can get back less than you staked in total. The result then shows LINE HIT · KES … BACK rather than a win.
Levels and bonus credit
Everything you stake counts toward your level. When you reach a level its bonus is added straight away, and from then on every settled ticket earns cashback at that level’s rate.
| Level | Reach it at | Level-up bonus | Cashback |
|---|---|---|---|
| Start here | — | — | |
| KES 1,000 staked | +KES 10 | 0.5% | |
| KES 5,000 staked | +KES 30 | 0.75% | |
| KES 20,000 staked | +KES 100 | 1% | |
| KES 75,000 staked | +KES 300 | 1.5% | |
| KES 250,000 staked | +KES 1,000 | 2% |
- Level bonuses and cashback are paid as bonus credit. It is used before your cash when you play, and anything it wins is paid to your cash balance.
- Bonus credit cannot be withdrawn or transferred.
- Each level’s bonus is paid once, and levels never go down.
- Cashback is the percentage shown of each settled ticket’s stake, at the level you held when you played, rounded down to the cent.
Fair draws
The server chooses each round's draw before entries open, using a cryptographic random number generator. From the start of the round the card shows a seal: a SHA-256 fingerprint of the round and its draw. The draw itself stays encrypted on the server until it lands. When the result is shown, the round's secret is published so the seal can be checked. The same inputs always produce the same fingerprint, so the draw cannot have been changed after you played. Nobody can choose or change a draw once a round has opened.
If your connection drops
Once your ticket is accepted it plays even if you lose signal or close the app. It settles automatically, and you can check the result under Your tickets. If our server restarts in the middle of a round, the round carries on with the draw it was sealed with.
