What Addis100 does
It links a new Melbet account to the Ethiopian welcome campaign. The bonus — 200% of the first deposit — is a separate promotion credited when you make a qualifying deposit; the code carries no terms of its own and there is no no-deposit element. Melbet's own registration guide lists "submit promo code" as step three: after choosing the method and entering phone and password, before confirming. That is where Addis100 goes.
Step 1 — register
- Open Melbet and tap "Registration"
Four methods: one-click, by phone, by email, via social login. For an account you will deposit into from Telebirr or CBE Birr, register by phone — the number you use for the wallet.
- Enter your +251 number, choose ETB, set a password
The currency must be Ethiopian Birr to see the local cashier.
- Paste Addis100 into the promo code field
It is the line below the password. Then confirm.
- Verify the phone number
Melbet sends an SMS code; the account is not fully active — and cannot deposit or withdraw — until it is entered. If it does not arrive within a minute, request it again; check the number has no leading zero after +251.
Step 2 — check the welcome terms before depositing
This is the step people skip. Melbet's 200% offer is consistent in multiplier (5x) and validity (30 days), but three details vary between promotions and you need the ones in force for your account:
| Cap | 24,100 / 28,930 / 37,000 ETB in different listings |
|---|---|
| Minimum deposit for the bonus | 50 ETB (older) or 145–185 ETB (recent) — higher than the 25 ETB platform minimum |
| Minimum odds for qualifying bets | 1.40 in most listings, 2.10 in one September 2026 audit |
Open Promotions → welcome bonus in your account and note all three. If the minimum odds line says 2.10, read the Betpower100 guide before accepting — it changes the value of the bonus considerably.
Step 3 — deposit through a local channel
| Method | Limits per deposit | How it works |
|---|---|---|
| 25–15,000 ETB | Select Telebirr in the cashier, enter the amount, confirm the prompt in the Telebirr app. Credited within a minute. | |
| 25–10,000 ETB | Same flow with a CBE Birr USSD or app confirmation. | |
| 25–10,000 ETB | Confirm the STK push on your Safaricom line. | |
| 25–15,000 ETB | Pay from the bank's app to the reference shown; credited after the transfer is matched. | |
| 25–10,000 ETB | Through the Dashen Super app. |
Deposit at least the bonus minimum you noted in step 2, from a wallet or account in your own name. Melbet charges no fees; your provider may. Once credited, the bonus balance appears next to the main balance with its remaining rollover. Since the December 2025 licence revocation also targeted betting-linked payment providers, a channel can vanish from the cashier without warning — if one fails, another usually works, and a small first deposit is the sensible test.
Step 4 — verification and the first withdrawal
Melbet asks for identity documents before paying out: a national ID or passport, sometimes a recent utility bill for the address. Reviews put approval at 12–24 hours. Upload them from the profile as soon as you register. Withdrawals go back to Telebirr, CBE Birr, M-Pesa or the bank channels with published times of 15 minutes to 24 hours; crypto in under an hour. A withdrawal request while the welcome bonus is still running normally cancels the bonus.
Two-factor authentication for logins and payouts can be enabled in the security settings and is worth switching on.
After the welcome offer
Melbet's ongoing promotions for Ethiopian accounts include a weekly 10% cashback on bets placed in the app (bets of 200 ETB or more, up to 20,000 ETB), accumulator boosts and insurance, and a birthday free bet. The app angle is covered in the Scatter100 guide.
Troubleshooting
| Code rejected | Check the spelling — Addis100 — and that you are in the registration form of a new account. Betpower100 and Scatter100 are alternatives that open the same offer. |
|---|---|
| Deposit not credited | Check the confirmation went through in the wallet app; bank transfers take longer to match. Keep the transaction reference and contact live chat (24/7). |
| Bonus not credited after deposit | Usually the deposit was below the promotion's minimum (not the cashier minimum) or the phone was not verified. Ask chat before depositing again. |
| Withdrawal on hold | Documents pending, or the wallet name does not match the account name. Both are fixable through support. |

FAQ
Is Addis100 a Melbet promo code or bonus code?
Same thing — the code you enter in the registration form's promo field. Melbet uses both words.
Does Addis100 work at 1xBet?
No. Addis100 is a Melbet code. 1xBet's codes are listed on the 1xBet hub.
What is the minimum deposit with Telebirr at Melbet?
25 ETB for the cashier. The welcome bonus needs more — 50 ETB in older promotions, 145–185 ETB in recent ones — so check the promotion in your account.
Can I withdraw to a different Telebirr number than I deposited from?
The withdrawal account must be in the account holder's name. Melbet matches names during KYC; third-party wallets are refused.
How long does Melbet KYC take?
Reviews report 12–24 hours. It must be complete before the first withdrawal, so upload documents early.
