FAQ
How many games are in the SportPesa Mega Jackpot?
The SportPesa Mega Jackpot has 17 games. The SportPesa Midweek Jackpot has 13 games. You need all games correct to win the full jackpot.
How much does the full slip cost?
KES 99 per slip, paid via M-Pesa. That gets you both the Mega and Midweek slips — one payment, both delivered. The slip is sent by SMS, usually within about 5 seconds.
How accurate are your picks?
We do not claim a guaranteed accuracy rate. Picks are based on historical statistics and team form. Past accuracy does not guarantee future results.
How is the slip delivered?
By SMS, usually within about 5 seconds of payment. The slip lists every game with its pick.
Should I use double chance on banker picks?
No. A banker is your highest-confidence single result, so covering it with double chance just inflates your stake and signals you don't actually trust the read. Save double chance for the genuine 50/50 fixtures where two outcomes are live.
How do I decide between a draw and a favourite on a 50/50 game?
Check motivation and defensive record first. A low-scoring side hosting a mid-table opponent with nothing to play for often points to a draw, while a favourite with a clear incentive and strong home form is worth backing straight. If the draw price is drifting and both teams need points, lean draw.
When should I drop a banker to protect the slip?
Only when the underlying form contradicts the price — a key injury, a congested fixture list, or a favourite with a poor away record. Otherwise keep the banker and manage risk on the upset-watch games instead.
How many upset-watch games should I flag before I commit?
Two to three is realistic. Flagging too many turns the slip into guesswork; focusing on the fixtures where the favourite's form or motivation is genuinely shaky keeps your coverage sharp.
