BetKing review: licences, payments and limits
Summary
BetKing is run by SV Gaming Limited. Its site lists licences from Lagos State, Anambra State and Osun State, plus a national licence, and its footer gives licence numbers 00000006/00000008. Withdrawals go to your bank account or to OPay and PalmPay, and the help pages say your bank account is credited within 24 hours. Before winnings are paid you need valid photo ID showing your full name, document number, date of birth and expiry date. The team says it reviews ID within a few hours. Deposits can be made through Paystack, GTB, Zenith, UBA, Interswitch, OPay, CoralPay and others. Details below were checked on the official site on 14 October 2026, and the Lagos licence was confirmed on the LSLGA register on 23 October 2026.

Limitations
- No renewed Lagos licence period was listed on the register as of 27 October 2026.
- We couldn't find a published minimum withdrawal amount.
