How fast does SportPesa pay out?
SportPesa's quickest withdrawals are to M-Pesa, at around 15 min. In Kenya that means winnings can reach your M-Pesa wallet quickly at the fastest operators. Your first withdrawal usually takes longer while SportPesa verifies your identity (KYC), so completing verification early keeps later payouts fast. The table above shows withdrawal times for every method SportPesa supports in Kenya.
