Shamso Bet: no licence found in public registers
Searches for Shamso Bet in Ethiopia grew +360% in six months. We checked the licence registers on 25 Oct 2026: none of them lists it.
We found no licence for Shamso Bet in the public registers we checked. We could not confirm an official website or a company behind it either, so there is no way to know who runs it or whether it pays out.
What's good
- Nothing we could confirm yet
Watch out for
- No licence found in public registers
- No official website confirmed
- Company behind it is unknown
Licence
On 25 Oct 2026 we searched three public sources for Shamso Bet: the Anjouan licence register (1278 licences), the Kahnawà:ke Gaming Commission's list of certified sites (221 sites) and the Malta Gaming Authority's list of sites that falsely claim its licence (250 sites). None of them lists Shamso Bet.
We could not confirm an official website either. Search results lead mostly to app download pages and promotional profiles, and we found no site that an identifiable company takes responsibility for.
Evidence: Anjouan register, Kahnawà:ke list and MGA warning list searched 25 Oct 2026.
Who owns it
We could not identify the company behind Shamso Bet. No company name, address or registration number appears in the sources we checked.
Terms and bonus rules
We have not seen the terms of Shamso Bet, because we found no official site. Withdrawal limits and rules for cancelling winnings are unknown.
Payouts and complaints
We have no confirmed complaints about Shamso Bet yet. We will update this page if we confirm any.
Safer gambling tools
We could not check whether Shamso Bet offers deposit limits, time-outs or self-exclusion.
Who can use it
The Ethiopian Lottery Service suspended sports betting licences on 4 December 2025 and revoked all of them on 15 December 2025. It says no betting company is licensed and warns people not to bet or deposit money with illegal services. No licences exist for online casinos. State lotteries remain legal. A licence from another country would not change this.
Score breakdown
Early check: so far we have checked the licence registers and local law. A trust score will appear once the site, terms and payouts can be checked.
We do not link to Shamso Bet and received nothing from it. A trust score describes how the operator behaves. It is not a recommendation to gamble. If you are the operator and believe something here is wrong, send us evidence and we will review it and publish a correction.
