Key points about basketball betting at Melbet

Melbet has been operating since 2012 and is one of the most recognisable betting brands in Uganda. The platform combines a sportsbook, casino, live dealer tables and a long list of payment methods, all tied into a single wallet.

Before you dive into basketball betting, make sure your profile details are complete and your account currency is set correctly — it makes deposits, bonuses and support requests much smoother.

Depositing from Kampala or upcountry is easy: mobile-money-backed options and bank cards both work, and crypto stays available when you need a private fallback.
