Device Requirements
Verify your device meets the necessary specifications before downloading the APK
The Afro Betting app for Android works with many handsets across Ethiopia, ranging from affordable options below 3,000 ETB to premium flagship phones. It requires Android 5.0 (Lollipop) as a minimum, which is still found on a substantial share of active devices.
Games like Aviator and JetX are built to run efficiently, working smoothly on devices with just 1 GB RAM using a standard 3G connection. Live dealer offerings from Evolution and Pragmatic Play consume more bandwidth, so 4G or steady Wi-Fi is recommended for these. The app download is just under 40 MB, but keep about 100 MB of free storage available for game assets and any future updates.
The APK won't be found on Google Play; get it directly from the Afro Betting website instead. To install it, open Settings, go to Security or Apps (depending on your Android version), then enable 'Unknown sources' or 'Install unknown apps'. The whole process takes around a minute.

| Network | 3G | 4G / Wi-Fi |

Step-by-Step APK Download
Download the Afro Betting app to your Android device in less than two minutes.
Because Google Play doesn't offer gambling applications to Ethiopian users, Afro Betting delivers its Android client through direct APK download. The installation file is less than 30 MB and compatible with Android 6.0 or newer. Once installed, you'll have access to comprehensive sports betting, live dealer games from Evolution and Pragmatic Play, and crash games such as Aviator and JetX. Deposits made via Telebirr and CBE Birr normally clear in under one minute.
Visit the download page
Visit the Afro Betting website using Chrome or any other Android browser, then select the Download App option in the header.
Tap the APK link
Your browser might show a warning about the file type. Select 'Download anyway' to continue with the process.
Allow installs from unknown sources
Go to Settings, select Apps, then Special app access, and give permission to Install unknown apps for your chosen browser.
Open and install the file
Locate the Afro Betting APK file in your Downloads folder, open it, and tap Install when the confirmation screen appears.
Log in and fund your account
Log in to your existing account or create a new one, then deposit funds using Telebirr, CBE Birr, or Visa before making your first bet.
Unknown Sources Permission
A straightforward one-time configuration that allows your Android device to accept the Afro Betting APK
By default, Android restricts app installation to the Play Store only, including third-party APKs like Afro Betting's. Your device must receive permission to accept external sources before installation can proceed. The exact menu varies between Android versions, though the entire process typically takes less than a minute.
On Android 8 and newer, permissions are assigned per-app instead of as a universal toggle. Go to Settings, find the specific app (browser or file manager) you used to download the APK, select 'Install unknown apps', and switch it on. On Android 7 or earlier, navigate to Settings > Security and activate 'Unknown sources'.
After the APK installation is complete, disable the permission to prevent unintended background installations by other applications, which represents sensible security practice for any app installation. Afro Betting operates under license NLA/Bet/012/2021 from Ethiopia's National Lottery Administration, confirming it is an officially regulated operator rather than an unverified publisher.
Installation Troubleshooting
Troubleshoot common Android configuration issues before contacting support
Most Afro Betting APK setup issues stem from device settings rather than the file itself. Android blocks installations from sources other than the Play Store by default, and insufficient storage or an older operating system version can interrupt the process.
If the solutions above don't work, reach out to Afro Betting's support team using live chat, Telegram, phone, or email.
Allow unknown sources
Go to Settings, then select Security or Privacy, and enable 'Install unknown apps' for your file manager or browser. Skipping this step means Android will block the APK installation.
Check free storage
The app needs around 80 MB of available storage. Navigate to Settings > Storage, clear cached files from other applications if necessary, and attempt the download once more.
Re-download the APK
Incomplete or interrupted downloads can corrupt the APK file. Remove the damaged APK from your Downloads folder, return to the Afro Betting website, and obtain a fresh copy.
Clear app cache
Should the app install successfully but fail to launch, access Settings > Apps > Afro Betting > Storage, select Clear Cache, and try opening the app again.
Android App Features
Afro Betting's Android app sets itself apart through local payment support and full crash game functionality.
Fast Launch
Launch times drop below two seconds on mid-range Android devices, with automatic session recovery so you pick up where you left off on Aviator, JetX, or Evolution live tables.
Local Payment Support
Deposit funds via Telebirr or CBE Birr directly through the app without using a web browser. Bitcoin, USDT, and TRON transfers complete in minutes, while Visa and Mastercard transactions work just like they do on web.
Live Alerts
Stay informed with push notifications about pre-match odds movements, live score updates, and promotions. You can control each notification type separately, and your choices are remembered across all sessions.
Full Catalog, No Cuts
Desktop games from Pragmatic Play, Smartsoft, and Spribe maintain identical RTP rates on the mobile app. Evolution's Lightning Roulette streams in full HD quality even over a basic 4G connection.
In-App Support
Chat support through live chat and Telegram is built into the app, so there's no need to step away from your game. Phone and email are still there for follow-ups that aren't time-sensitive.
Regulated Operation
Afro Betting's Android app operates under license NLA/Bet/012/2021 granted by Ethiopia's National Lottery Administration, authorizing all betting activity and fund transfers.
