22Bet app for Android and iOS
Nowadays, it is unlikely that you will be able to attract potential customers with any services or entertainment if they can only be used on a stationary device. Everything that is available on the internet must also be accessible from a smartphone, and in such a way that it remains convenient, despite the small screen size and other limitations of portable gadgets. The 22Bet administration understands this perfectly well, which is why our company has been successful for so many years. To enable you to play anywhere and anytime, we offer specialised applications for Android and iOS.
Key benefits of the application
Some users still believe that mobile services are somewhat limited in comparison to PCs (which has certainly not been true in recent years). There are also people who do not want to use the app itself — for them, we have developed a mobile version of the website. However, in order for each player to make an informed choice between the different versions of the 22Bet interface, we must explain the main advantages of mobile apps.
Instant access to betting and casino
First and foremost, 22Bet mobile apps allow you to use all of our company's services available on the desktop website from your smartphone or tablet, anytime, anywhere. Now you won't find yourself in that awkward situation where you have some free time on public transport or during a break at work, but there's nothing to do with it, and you can't place a bet on an interesting match right now, because by the evening it will no longer be relevant. Seize every opportunity to devote time to your favourite pastime and never be bored again!
High odds and wide selection
The success of 22Bet as a bookmaker is largely based on the fact that we offer some of the best odds in the industry. We set a minimum margin on our odds, knowing that we can also earn from the flow of players. To ensure that no player is disappointed, the administration offers bets on literally anything: our line always includes a selection of several thousand matches in approximately 60 disciplines. What's more, you can place up to 1,500 different bets on top matches, predicting, for example, the slightest statistical nuances in leading football tournaments. You can find all this in the app too.
Fast payouts and multiple payment methods
When gambling, you must initially accept that winning is not guaranteed, but if you do win, you have every right to expect to receive your money as quickly as possible. The 22Bet administration has done everything necessary to ensure this: you can request a withdrawal directly from the app, and the payment is almost never credited to your card in more than 15 minutes. It remains to add that there is a wide variety of payment methods available: you can withdraw your winnings using a bank card, a popular electronic payment system or even a cryptocurrency wallet.
How to download and install
Most smartphone owners are confident users – at least, they don’t usually need special instructions on how to install various programmes. However, in the case of 22Bet software, things are a little different: our apps are not available in the official Google Play and App Store (with the clarification below), which do not want to moderate content related to gambling. In this situation, our establishment had to look for workarounds so that our customers would not be left without the programme, and we found them. Don’t panic: there’s no need to worry, it’s all quite simple, and we’ll tell you what to do.
Download for Android — APK from the official website (instructions)
The procedure for installing the 22Bet app begins with visiting our official website using any browser on the device you plan to download it to. Once on the website, go to the Menu, then tap on the Android logo in the Apps section. This will start the download of the installation file with the apk extension, which you can find in the Downloads folder on your device. Now just tap on it and wait for the system to unpack the programme. In total, all of the above procedures will take no more than a minute.
Security settings and permissions for installing APKs
By default, devices running Android OS allow downloading and installing mobile applications from sources other than Google Play only if the gadget owner gives their explicit consent to such actions. In this case, the system will ask for two consecutive permissions: first to download the installation file, and then to install it. In both cases, you can give such permission by going from the dialogue box to the appropriate section of Settings and switching the required toggle switch – the system will immediately direct you to the right place, and there will be only one such toggle switch there.
We must warn you: you should only allow the download and installation of programmes if you are completely sure of their safety. Downloading the apk from the official 22Bet website poses no threat: we have no interest in damaging our own reputation. However, players should not trust other offers to download our programme: on third-party forums, people may have other motives and may not be interested in helping you at all.
Download for iOS — App Store / regional nuances
Most iOS users don’t have much choice: the App Store doesn’t offer our app for download, and the operating system itself doesn’t allow apps to be downloaded from third-party sources. In this situation, 22Bet can only offer a PWA – more of a desktop shortcut than a full-fledged app, but it does guarantee quick access. To create such a shortcut, simply open our website in the Safari browser, select the Share option, and instead of a recipient, select the Home Screen option.
In fact, 22Bet can still be downloaded from the App Store, but with numerous restrictions. For example, such software is available to users from Nigeria, but then your iOS account must be specified as Nigerian. If desired, the customer can temporarily reconfigure their account to download the programme from the official app store, but this is fraught with nuances such as the lack of language versions of the interface and payment options other than those available in Nigeria.
Access when blocked
In some countries, users may encounter difficulties when trying to install and use the 22Bet app – both the website needed to download the programme and the programme itself may not open. If you see a message saying that access is blocked, it means that we are formally unable to operate in your country: we do not have a local licence, although one is required. As a rule, this restriction does not apply to customers: if they manage to bypass the restrictions, which can be done using any VPN, there will be no issues. Nevertheless, we recommend that you make sure in advance that gambling in general or the use of a VPN is not a criminal offence in your country, and we also advise high rollers to think about how they will explain to the tax authorities where such income comes from (predictably, it is not possible to indicate an illegal gambling site).
Main functions of the application
We have already explained why the 22Bet mobile app is in no way inferior to the desktop site, but even so, it is possible that some users are not taking full advantage of the programme’s capabilities simply because they are unaware of them. In this article, we will not be able to cover absolutely all the options, but we will at least highlight what you may have missed, as such an omission greatly limits your rights.
Pre-match and LIVE betting (in-play interface)
Many people perceive 22Bet not as a universal gambling platform, but as a bookmaker; we are not opposed to this positioning, especially since our establishment pays great attention to the content of the line. You can place bets on your favourite teams and athletes both before the start of the match and during it - odds are available and updated until the moment when any intrigue disappears. To increase the odds and add to the excitement, you can place an express bet by adding more than one event to your coupon (the odds will be multiplied, but the winnings will only be counted if all components of the prediction come true). If you are not ready to predict a single match, but you know for sure that Barcelona will win the Spanish championship, Liverpool will win the Champions League, Ousmane Dembélé will become the top scorer of the upcoming World Cup, and so on, you can place such a bet.
Mobile casino and live dealers
If sports betting is aimed at people who understand sports and enjoy analysing them, casinos are popular because winning there usually depends solely on luck. We offer significantly more entertainment of this kind than any land-based establishment: there are thousands of slots, card games, bingo, TV games, crash games, roulette and much more.
However, not all customers like the fact that the game is played using a random number generator: many want to play with a real person because it is more interesting or even fairer. The 22Bet administration emphasises that all algorithms in our establishment are checked for fairness, but we do not deny the right to play with a real dealer: this is what the live casino is for. Card games and roulette are played in this format, and the game itself takes place in the same way as when visiting a land-based establishment, only via video link.
Personal account: deposits, withdrawals, betting history
In their personal account, users can manage their gaming account — in particular, they can top up their gaming balance and request withdrawal of their winnings. There are numerous payment methods available, and the terms of use for each are described in detail so that you clearly understand how long you will have to wait for the funds to be credited, whether there are any fees, and what the transaction limits are.
Players also have access to their betting history, which can help them to thoroughly analyse the effectiveness of their bankroll and gain a general understanding of how much money they are spending on gambling.
Live streams, statistics and results in real time
One of the most important non-core features of the 22Bet app is live sports streaming, which allows players to cheer on their bets in more than 30,000 matches every month! Even if the administration is unable to organise a TV broadcast for objective reasons, in most cases we provide the opportunity to follow the action at least in the form of a graphic broadcast on 22Zone.
By the way, for a more in-depth analysis of sporting events, we offer two comprehensive information sections: Statistics and Results. The information in them is updated as quickly as possible, and you can see the statistics for a specific match that is still in progress right in its tab, where the odds are also displayed.
Interface, performance and requirements
Users with minimal experience using various gadgets know that every programme has certain system requirements, which means that some devices simply cannot handle it. Although the 22Bet mobile app has many different features, including colourful slots with stunning graphics and complex gameplay, we can assure you that the software has very modest hardware requirements, so it can even be run on older gadgets. However, owners of the latter will agree that more specifics are needed, so let’s move on to that.
Supported versions of Android and iOS
In the case of Android, the mobile application can even be installed on a gadget with OS version 9.0, and point compatibility is possible even with older versions. When installing PWA on an iPhone or iPad, the iOS version is not so important: the function of creating a program shortcut has existed for a very long time. As for the app from the App Store, which is available to users in Nigeria, it requires at least iOS 14.0.
Application size and traffic usage
The installation file for Android (apk) weighs 68.1 MB when downloaded, the app from the App Store takes up a whole 213.6 MB, while PWA is a shortcut that takes up virtually no disk space. Keep in mind that these sizes are not fixed: if software updates are released before you decide to install, it may end up being larger. Also note that after unpacking, the programme will take up significantly more space, especially when it pulls in the cache, which can inflate it to as much as 1 GB!
As for traffic consumption, it is difficult to estimate without understanding how exactly you will use the programme. If your approach is only to place sports bets (without watching broadcasts or playing casino games), then traffic consumption will be at the level of several megabytes per visit, but any video broadcasts will increase this figure hundreds of times over.
Speed, cache and updates
Our app is considered a faster interface option compared to the 22Bet mobile site; this may not be so noticeable in other use cases, but it will definitely catch the eye of those who like to catch favourable odds on live sports. This impressive performance is achieved thanks to the cache: page templates are stored in the device’s memory, so even a low connection speed is enough for the gadget to quickly update quotes. We mentioned above that the cache can take up to 1 GB of disk space, but the high speed will be a good compensation for the space you are willing to allocate.
Updates are important for the 22Bet mobile app because they bring technological innovations and improve security. However, automatic installation is only possible in the version of the software from the App Store (for Nigeria), whereas for PWA, no programme update is required because it is a browser shortcut, so everything is always up to date. The Android app, on the other hand, must be updated manually: to do this, go to Settings in the programme menu and look for the line indicating the current software version. The status Updated means that no action is required on the part of the player; if you see an active Update button, press it and the system will do everything itself.
Payments and security in the app
Using the 22Bet mobile app means that users will operate their gaming accounts (make deposits, place bets, withdraw winnings) and provide the administration with personal data necessary for verification. Our company ensures that your money and data remain completely secure, while the use of the app’s features remains accessible and convenient.
Available payment methods in the app
22Bet services are available in dozens of countries around the world, with a unique set of popular payment methods in almost every country. Our administration has taken this into account, so users always see a selection of payment methods that are available in their location. In some jurisdictions, some of the listed methods may not be available, but in general, you can make deposits and request withdrawals using bank cards and bank transfers, electronic payment systems, and cryptocurrency wallets. Incidentally, you can also make payments in cryptocurrency if you have a fiat gaming balance — in this case, automatic conversion is performed.
Account verification, encryption and protection
Verification is mandatory: upon request from our administration, you are required to provide documents confirming the player’s identity, otherwise you will not be able to withdraw money. Customers’ personal data is never, under any circumstances, transferred to third parties: even law enforcement agencies do not contact us, as such a procedure is not provided for by the jurisdiction of Kahnawake, which issued our licence.
In addition, all data transmitted from the customer’s device to the 22Bet server and back is encrypted using modern end-to-end encryption standards. The Internet will never be a completely secure channel for transmitting information, but thanks to the technology used, malicious parties will not be able to decrypt intercepted data.
It remains to add that the administration has also taken care of account protection on the client side: for example, you can enable two-factor authentication via Google Authenticator so that a login and password are no longer sufficient to hack an account.
Bonuses and promotions via the app
Although 22Bet has many other advantages that make it the preferred choice, there is no doubt that the bonus programme is one of the most compelling arguments for attracting new players and retaining existing customers. It should be noted that, in general, the bonus programme is synchronised for all types of our interface: this is done specifically so that you can freely switch between your devices depending on the situation without losing your rights to previously received rewards and their timely wagering.
Welcome and mobile bonuses
To attract potential customers to our services, the 22Bet has developed two welcome bonuses. One of them is designed for sports betting enthusiasts and involves doubling the first deposit up to €100, while the second is a whole welcome package for casino fans, including four bonuses with a maximum total value of up to €1,500 and 150 free spins.
At the same time, some users do not use the mobile application, even though they are 22Bet customers. Perhaps some people simply do not realise how convenient it is, and in order to demonstrate the advantages of the programme to players, our administration sometimes offers specific bonuses that are only available in the application.
Promotions, free spins and VIP offers for app users
22Bet’s welcome offers are extremely generous, but that doesn’t mean that we won’t try to keep you as a regular customer with numerous gifts. In fact, our apps constantly offer various promotions and prize draws, thanks to which you can get bonus money, free bets (free spins and free bets), increased cashback, and sometimes even material prizes (such as gadgets) in tournaments. Some bonuses can be received multiple times and are available all the time; our weekly deposit incentives are a good example. At the same time, the administration sometimes supplements them with short-term offers timed to coincide with, for example, New Year’s Eve, St. Patrick’s Day or Halloween.
In addition, we have a VIP programme that gives users who have shown long-term loyalty a privileged position. Members who have reached the highest levels of the 22Bet VIP programme can receive weekly compensation of up to 11% of their losses for the past week. Additional benefits of your VIP status include priority service (personal manager), access to select tournaments, and exclusive rewards for reaching the next level.
Notifications and personalisation
The 22Bet mobile apps have a feature that is quite difficult to implement in other interface options for technical reasons. We believe that it significantly simplifies life for customers and makes their bets noticeably more thoughtful and effective. We are, of course, talking about push notifications, which allow you to always stay up to date with events.
Push notifications about results and promotions
We are sure you have been in situations where you want to bet on two events in one evening, but you don’t have enough money for both bets, and an accumulator bet seems too risky. At the same time, it is not always possible to closely follow the matches, but push notifications partially solve this problem: as soon as your first bet is calculated as a win, the 22Bet app will immediately notify you! This feature is especially important if you are betting not on the outcome or final score, but on a condition that may be fulfilled much earlier than the end of the first match – then you still have time to place a bet on the second match!
Although information about promotions is always available in the Bonuses section, notifications make life easier here too. Firstly, you no longer have to spend time searching through the relevant section of the programme, and secondly, you won’t miss out on any new interesting offers. After all, some promotions are so short-lived that you need to find out about them as early as possible, and the 22Bet app gives players that opportunity!
Setting up personal alerts and favourite events
A distinctive feature of notifications in 22Bet apps is the ability to customise them according to your preferences. For example, some users do not want to receive notifications about promotions because they fear that such information will provoke gambling addiction — our establishment allows you to disable this type of message. In addition, players can select the teams and athletes they want to follow: this will not only help them quickly find their upcoming matches in the Favourites section, but also allow them to receive reminders that the next game is coming up soon.
Technical support and feedback
When developing our applications, we did everything possible to ensure that they work flawlessly in standard mode and that players can use them without needing the help of specialists. Of course, situations where something does not work or a player does not understand something do happen, so we have a support service that works around the clock, seven days a week. Given that 22Bet’s services are available in many different countries, we have hired an international team of consultants who speak multiple languages and, if necessary, use artificial intelligence for translation.
Online chat, email and response time
Right inside the app, users will find an online chat feature, which is the fastest way to contact 22Bet’s support team. Most issues can be resolved directly in the chat, and the typical wait time is no more than a few minutes. If the operators are not too busy at the moment, the intensity of the conversation may be similar to chatting with friends.
An alternative method of communication is email. A list of email addresses and a feedback form (with a reply to your email) can be found in the Contacts section. You should contact us by email if a quick response is not essential or you are not ready to deal with the issue in the near future, as well as when you need to send any files. A response to an email enquiry may take several hours: the support service also works around the clock, but it is considered that an immediate response is not so important.
Frequently asked questions
Does 22Bet have a PC application?
At present, 22Bet does not offer users a dedicated application for Windows computers. Instead, you can use the desktop website, and if you need to bypass a block, use any VPN of your choice.
Can I install the 22Bet app on devices running HarmonyOS?
Yes, for most devices from Huawei, you can download the apk from our website; although it is formally called the 22Bet app for Android, it is still compatible with HarmonyOS. Problems may arise only if your gadget is running Harmony NEXT OS, but it is currently only popular in China, where our company does not officially operate.
Why can't I install the 22Bet mobile app from the App Store?
You can, but only if your Apple ID is set up as Nigerian - we operate completely legally in Nigeria thanks to a local licence, and the App Store allows the 22Bet app to be distributed. If you are in another country, you can only download the software from the official app store if you temporarily set your Apple ID country to Nigeria. This will impose some restrictions: both the interface language (English) and the payment methods in the app will be tailored specifically to users from that country.
Do I have to pay to install the 22Bet mobile app?
No, the 22Bet mobile app is distributed exclusively free of charge, and for your own safety, you should not download it from any sources other than our website. At the same time, players who plan to place real bets and claim material winnings must periodically replenish their gaming balance with their own money.
Will I receive another welcome bonus in the 22Bet mobile app if I have only used the desktop site before?
The welcome bonus from 22Bet can only be received once in a lifetime - at the moment of registration as a user. Existing customers do not need to re-register to use the app (it is prohibited, you just need to log in), which means you will not receive a second bonus for new users.
Can I register in the 22Bet app if I don't have an account yet?
Yes, the 22Bet mobile apps offer the same registration options as the desktop website. However, only customers who do not have and have never had an account on the website should register in the app.
