What the app does
Everything the website offers, on a phone screen built for one hand.
Live betting
In-play markets with odds that update every few seconds, and a bet slip that follows you from the match list.
Casino and Aviator
Slots, live tables and the crash game in the same account as your sports balance.
M-Pesa inside
Deposit with M-Pesa Express from 50 KES, instantly and without fees; withdraw to the same number in about 15 minutes.
Cash out
Sell a bet slip in full or in part before the match ends, or set it to sell automatically at a price you choose.
How to install the 888starz app
Five steps. The Google Play route skips step 2 and 3.
Get the file
Open 888starz, log in or register, and go to the Mobile section: it offers the Android APK and the Google Play link. The APK saves to your Downloads folder.
Allow the install
For the APK: Settings, Security, allow installs from this source. Android asks once, for the browser you used.
Open the file
Tap the downloaded APK and confirm. The install takes under a minute on most phones.
Log in or register
Use your phone number or e-mail and password. New here? Registration in the app takes a few minutes.
Deposit and bet
Open Deposit, choose M-Pesa Express, enter from 50 KES and confirm on your phone. The money lands instantly.

APK or Google Play
Google Play updates the app by itself and keeps the install simple. The APK from the operator's site updates in the app and is the way to go when the Play version is not available on your phone. Either way it is the same app and the same account. Never install from a mirror site: a repackaged betting app looks identical and only the login details go somewhere else.
If the app does not install or open
Four causes cover almost every case.
Install blocked
Allow installs from the browser you downloaded with, then open the APK again. Google Play Protect may ask once; the app is signed by the operator.
Not enough space
Free 150 MB. The installer unpacks to more than its own size.
App opens, then closes
Clear the app cache, update Android WebView in Google Play, and restart the phone.
Old version
Update from the same source you installed from. An APK installed over a Google Play version can fail; uninstall first.
Log in and make the first deposit
Sign in with the phone number or e-mail you registered with. If you installed the app before registering, the sign-up form is on the first screen and takes a few minutes: phone, Kenyan shilling, bonus choice, SMS code. Activate the phone number afterwards, because bonuses and free spins are credited only to activated numbers. The first deposit through M-Pesa Express is from 50 KES; withdrawals return to the same number.
One app for sport, live and casino
Open 888starz, register and get the app from the Mobile section.
