How the 5% Withdrawal Levy Works
Kenya applies a 5% withholding levy to betting withdrawals, collected automatically by KRA-registered operators like Harakabet at the point you cash out. It’s calculated on the withdrawal amount, deducted before the payout is sent, and shown to you before you confirm the request — there’s no separate tax filing needed on your side.

Why Harakabet Shows This Upfront
Most betting sites in Kenya mention the withdrawal levy somewhere in their terms, but almost none calculate it together with your actual payout before you confirm a withdrawal. Seeing the exact number upfront — not just “a levy applies” — is the whole point of this calculator: no rounding surprises, no digging through T&Cs to work out what you’ll actually receive.
Withdrawal Calculator FAQ
Does Harakabet charge its own fee on top of the levy?
No — Harakabet doesn’t add its own withdrawal fee. The only deduction is the standard 5% Kenya withdrawal levy.
Does this calculator work for Airtel Money too?
Yes — the 5% levy calculation is the same across M-Pesa, Airtel Money, bank transfer and card withdrawals.
Is the levy applied to deposits too?
Kenya’s current rules apply a matching 5% levy on deposits as well as withdrawals — this calculator covers the withdrawal side specifically.
Why does crypto withdrawal work differently?
Crypto withdrawals are subject to blockchain network fees rather than the standard levy structure shown here — check the withdrawal methods table for details.
