REVIEW SUMMARY
WHAT MAKES PARIPULSE A GOOD BETTING SITE
OUR RATING – 3.2/10
BONUS – 150K NGN
PROMO CODE – 100NGN
OVERVIEW
Paripulse is a new name in the local betting scene, most of you likely haven’t ever heard of them. We ourselves haven’t heard of them until mid-2024, therefore we thought it might be useful to review them and see if they are a good betting platform.
The Nigerian website of Paripulse is owned and operated by Speed Sports Limited. They hold a gaming license issued by the National Lottery Regulatory Commission as well as one from the Oyo State Gaming Board. The fact that they have local licenses and a Nigerian company that manages their .ng website, is definitely a good sign.
Of course, as a Nigerian betting website, Paripulse has to support a good number of local payment methods to top up your account and request withdrawals. Same applies to bonus offers and promotions. We are going to cover all that in greater details in subsequent sections of this page
REGISTRATION
The first thing every newcomer comes across is the registration process, so let’s take a look at how you can create an account. If you open the registration page, you will see four different registration options available: by phone, by email, social networks and one-click registration. Now, let’s take a look at each one individually.
- One-click registration – we thought it would be best to cover this one first, because it is the quickest and, in our opinion, most convenient way to set up an account. All you have to do is click or tap one button and your account will be all set.
- Phone registration – you can create an account using your phone number. For this, you will need to enter your number on the registration page and receive a text message with a confirmation code. Enter that confirmation code and press the “Register” button. Your account will be all set and you can use your phone number to sign in going forward.
- Email registration – this is likely the most common way most users create their accounts. You will need to complete a short registration form entering your email address along with a couple of other bits of information. Once you complete and submit the form your account will be ready and you can start using it. Nevertheless, we recommend confirming your email address first, as that will give you access to a wider range of payment instruments.
- Social networks – finally, you can set up a player account using your Google and / or Telegram account. Simply click or tap the social network you want to use and follow the instructions to complete the registration process. You will then be able to sign in with that same social media profile going forward.
Regardless of what registration option you decide to go with, the entire process should take no more than 2 minutes.
EXCLUSIVE PROMO CODE – 100NGN
If you found yourself reading this review and read it all the way to this part – we have a little present for you. This is an exclusive promo code, which you can enter on the registration page. The code is 100NGN and it can only be used if you don’t yet have an account with Paripulse.
If you use this code during the registration process you can get an extra warm welcome when you start using your new account. Also, if you have friends, who might be interested in trying out Paripulse, feel free to share the code with them as well.
WELCOME OFFER
Of course, as a new player you are going to get a welcome preset for making your first deposit. The bonus amount depends on your deposit size, with a minimum deposit of ₦400 required to activate the offer.
- Deposits between ₦400 and ₦20,800 give you a 200% bonus.
- Deposits between ₦20,801 and ₦41,600 give you a 250% bonus.
- Deposits above ₦41,601 give you a 300% bonus.
Ensure your personal information is added in the “Profile” section before making your payment. Once your payment is confirmed, bonus funds will be automatically added to your player wallet. Bonus funds will remain valid for 30 days and you need to wager them 10 times using accumulator bets with three or more selections. Each selection should carry the odds of 1.40 or higher.
SUPPORT
Paripulse doesn’t seem to have a live chat support feature available on their website. Therefore, the only way you can currently get in touch with their support team is email. Even though not having a live chat feature is far from ideal, we decided to send them an email and see how quickly they can respond.
We sent our email on a work day and during office hours and got a response within an hour. The questions we asked were related to general betting rules and the response we got answered all of them in a way that was easy to understand.
Having the above in mind, it should be relatively easy to get assistance even though live chat is not available. However, bear in mind that the response time may significantly vary depending on the day and time.
SPORTS BETTING SECTION AND ODDS
The sports betting section at Paripulse features over 55 different sports, covering almost every possible niche sports discipline you can think of. Of course the main emphasis is on sports like football. At any given time, you will see over 1500 football games being available for betting. Of course, this also means most popular local leagues can be found here as well. The minimum stake is ₦30, so you can bet with 50 Naira.
Now, let’s take a look at an actual upcoming game from the Nigerian Premier League. This is a game between Rivers United and Katsina United. This game has over 120 potential bets you can place and it will also have additional betting markets once it goes live. Most games will also have a good variety of various special bets and over / under betting lines.
LIVE BETTING
The live betting section features mostly all the same sports you would have already seen in the pre-game betting section. Live games are available 24/7 so there is definitely no shortage of betting opportunities here.
If we look at an ongoing football game, we will see that throughout the entire game at least 50 markets are open at any given moment. The variety of markets for most games is also quite impressive. In addition to all the “main” bet types, you will also have a good selection of player markets, quick bets and card markets.
BETBUILDER
You might notice that some games will have a building crane icon when you open them. This is an indication that “betbuilder” is available. For those of you not familiar with this feature – this is a special feature that allows you to combine selections from the same game.
Under normal circumstances, accumulator bets cannot have selections from the same event. Bebuilder allows that. While a lot of games might support this functionality, it will not be available everywhere. Therefore, if you can’t see it in some games, that is likely by design.
SPORTS COVERED BY PARI PULSE
American Football, Bicycle Racing, Boxing, Darts, Field Hockey, Floorball, Formula 1, Gaelic Football, Golf, Greyhound AntePost, Greyhound Racing, Weather, Bare-knuckle boxing, Horse Racing, Horse Racing AntePost, Hurling, Lottery, Martial Arts, Motorsport, Muay Thai, Poker, Politics, Rugby, Ski Jumping, Special Bets, Toto, Trotting, Trotting AntePost, TV-Games, UFC, Water Polo
DEPOSITS AND WITHDRAWALS
The payments page features three widely used local payment operators: Monnify, Paystack and Flutterwave. This means that you should be able to easily make deposits using mobile payments, local bank cards or bank accounts. In addition to traditional payment methods, Paripulse also supports crypto payments, with over 15 tokens that you can use to top up your account or withdraw your winnings.
The minimum amount you can deposit with most payment methods is ₦250.
Some cryptocurrencies, such as Tron (TRX), will allow making smaller deposits.
The minimum amount you can withdraw may vary between ₦250 and ₦1,000 depending on the payment method you are using.
HOW TO MAKE A DEPOSIT?
Go paripulse.ng and sign in using your phone number / username / email address and password. If you don’t remember your password and are unable to log in, press the “Forgot password?” links and follow the given instructions.
Once you are logged in, you should see a red deposit button in the top right corner of the screen. You will then be moved over to the deposits page where you will see all the available payment methods.
The payments page will display a number of different payment methods. Take a minute to review them and press the one, which seems to be most suitable for you.
Depending on the payment method of your choice, you might need to add some additional information. For example, this applies to bank transfers – you will need to specify your account number. Now simply follow the instructions to complete your deposit.
HOW TO WITHDRAW FROM PARIPULSE?
Your account should be secured and should have all your personal information on file before you can submit a withdrawal request.
First, open the account management menu by pressing the little icon resembling a person, which you can find in the top right corner of the screen. Then, open the “Security” section and complete the tasks listed there, to make sure your account is secure.
You will also need to add all personal information to complete your profile. To do that, open the same account management menu and go to the “Profile” section. Add all the missing information and save your changes once you’re done.
Once you are all done with the two steps above, open the same menu again and go to the “Withdraw funds” page. You will see all available withdrawal methods listed there. We recommend using the same payment method that you used to make your deposit.
Finally, when you submit your request, Paripulse may ask you to pass a KYC (know your customer) check. This is a standard procedure, which every proper sports betting operator has, so no need to worry about this.
IDENTITY VERIFICATION
When initiating a withdrawal request, you may need to undergo an identity verification process. Should this be required, you will be notified to supply photocopies of specific documents to verify your identity before your withdrawal can be processed.
Typically, the documents requested will include:
- Photo Identification: A photo of an official identification document, such as your national ID, voter ID card, the picture page of your international passport, or driver’s license.
- Proof of Residency: A recent document confirming your current address, which could be a utility bill, electricity bill, or telephone bill.
- Bank Statement: A recent bank account statement, no more than three months old, to confirm your financial details.

PARIPULSE MOBILE
Paripulse has a well-optimized mobile website as well as an Android phone app. However, since they don’t yet have an official iOS application, we would like to go over the mobile website first. Additionally the layout of the mobile website is largely similar to what you can see on the app.
We tested Paripulse’s mobile website with three different devices – an iPhone 13, a Google Pixel 2 XL and an older Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Upon reviewing and testing their website, we can confidently say that they did a reasonably good job at optimizing their website for mobile devices.
SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
The mobile website functioned well on all devices that we tested it with. It is worth mentioning that there are currently no special features like football streams or esports streams available. Therefore, we wouldn’t know how those would work on older devices.
Paripulse’s mobile website utilizes caching functionality which allows your browser to download and store most static page elements. This means that whenever you move between pages all elements will be loaded from your phone’s memory instead of being downloaded every time. Such an approach significantly reduces the time it takes to open and load a new page. This can be especially beneficial if you have a slower internet connection.
USER INTERFACE
The user interface is designed with navigation in mind, featuring multiple menus to allow easy access to the different sections of the website:
- Header Navigation: This is the main navigation panel, the website’s header allows access to different sections, including payment and account management pages. To view all available navigation links, click on the three horizontal lines located in the top right corner of the screen.
- Sports Navigation Menu: Positioned directly below the header, this secondary menu is dedicated to sports. It includes a toggle for switching between pre-match and live games and features a vertical scrolling menu that lists all available sports. Each sport is accompanied by an indicator showing the current number of available games.
- Betslip: Located at the bottom center of the screen, the betslip becomes available once you pick a selection. It can be accessed by tapping the small icon at the bottom center. The betslip’s design is rather minimalistic, offering options to adjust your stake, modify preferences, and add more selections.
Paripulse App Download (Android) and Installation
You can run the Android app on any device with a version of 5 or higher. If you are using an older version – you will need to stick to the mobile website for now.
Follow the steps described below to install and open the application on your phone.
First Step – Download the APK File
Press the green download button and to start downloading the app. Your phone can give you a pop up with a warning (as seen on the picture), you will need to press the “Ok” button to proceed.
Second Step – Install the App
Once the app is downloaded you will get another pop-up asking whether you want to open it. Press the “open” button to proceed.
At this stage your phone can give you a warning that the app is from an unknown source, so it requires additional approval. Chrome will give you an option to go over to the settings page.
On the settings page, you will need to enable the “Allow from this source” switch.
Once you do that, you need to tap the installation file again to install it on your device.
Step Three – Open the App and Sign in
Now, you should see the Paripulse app being available on your phone’s home screen. You can log in using your existing account if you have one or you can create an account directly in the app.
PARIPULSE DESKTOP SITE OVERVIEW
A functional and user-friendly interface design is usually a good sign when it comes to betting sites, as this will enable you to find exactly what you need in just several steps, markets and selections should be clearly visible and understandable while the betslip part should show all details relevant to your bet and additional options and/or features if applicable. Below are some examples of how Paripulse’s online sports betting section looks like.
To explore the desktop website, let’s break it down into four key sections and examine each one individually:
- Header: At the very top, the header functions as the central navigation menu, linking to various sections of the website. Here, you can find all essential elements such as the deposit button, your current account balance, and links to account management pages.
- Left Sidebar – Sports Selection Menu: Positioned on the left side of the screen, this menu gives you an overview of different sports and tournaments available for betting. Each listing includes an indicator showing the number of open games for that sport/tournament.
- Center – Betting Interface and Markets: The center of the screen usually displays a list of individual games, each accompanied by a preview of the most popular betting markets. Clicking on any game will shift the display to a detailed betting interface that includes a full overview of the selected game, a scoreboard for live games, and a full list of all betting markets.
- Betslip: Located on the right, the betslip area is where your selections from the betting interface are added. This section allows you to adjust your stake, add more selections, and place your bets. Additionally, there’s a tab labeled “My Bets” where you can view your active and recent bets.
