License of the bookmaker
The betting market in Ethiopia is at a developing stage. According to the current legislation, land-based sportsbooks are legal. There is a national lottery association in the country, which issues licenses. However, as of 2024, the authority has issued only one permit for a facility located in Addis Ababa.
Regarding online bookmakers, the law does not prohibit their activity. Therefore, an international license is quite enough to work on the Internet. It is on the basis of such a document that Melbet works.
The international license of Curacao guarantees fair play, payment of winnings in accordance with BC rules, use of official sources of information about sports events and high-quality machines from global providers.

Kinds of bets in Melbet
Melbet offers three classic types of bets:
- Single. This is a bet on one outcome of one event.
