What players say

Stories from the community.

“Cashed out KES 4,200 to M-Pesa after a chess tournament run. It hit my phone in under 90 seconds, that's what sold me.”

“KYC was way smoother than I expected. Uploaded my ID, took a selfie, and I was approved before my chai had gone cold.”
Amina Wanjiru

“The matchmaking actually works. I'm paired with people at my level, not smurfs with new accounts. Finally a fair game.”

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

How do I cash out my winnings?
Open Wallet → Withdraw, enter the amount, confirm your registered M-Pesa number, and we push the payout instantly. Most withdrawals arrive within 2 minutes on the free tier.
Is this legal in Kenya?
Yes. Shanz Game operates as a skill-based competitive gaming platform. We are KYC-compliant, AML-aware, and every payout is written to an immutable ledger. All players must be 18 or older.
How fast are withdrawals?
Free tier: under 10 minutes. Silver: under 5 minutes. Gold: under 2 minutes. VIP: instant. Bank transfers take up to 1 business day depending on the receiving bank.
How do the referral rules work?
Your friend signs up with your code, completes KYC, and makes a qualifying first deposit of KES 100 or more. You receive KES 100 in your wallet instantly, and they get a KES 50 welcome bonus.
What happens if I disconnect mid-game?
You have a 60-second reconnect window. If you don't return in time, a referee bot adjudicates based on the current board state, no automatic forfeits. Repeated abuse is flagged to fraud review.
Do I need KYC to play?
You can browse games and play free matches without KYC. Cash tournaments, deposits above KES 2,000, and any withdrawal require completed KYC verification.
