Football Kenya Federation (FKF) and Mozzart Bet Kenya Limited have signed a new three-year sponsorship agreement worth KSh 90 million, officially marking the launch of the 2026 Mozzart Bet Cup.
The new deal will see Mozzart Bet invest KSh 30 million per year into Kenya’s premier domestic knockout competition from 2026 to 2028, continuing its role as the tournament’s title sponsor and reinforcing its long-term commitment to Kenyan football.
Speaking during the contract signing ceremony, FKF President Hussein Mohammed said the renewed partnership would further strengthen the competition and benefit clubs across the country.
“This partnership is not just about sponsorship, it is about building a stronger, more competitive and more credible football ecosystem in Kenya. The Mozzart Bet Cup has become a truly national competition that gives every club a fair chance, and this investment guarantees better organisation, better visibility and real financial support for our teams,” said Mohammed.
How many teams will participate in the 2026 Mozzart Bet Cup?
The Mozzart Bet Cup has grown into one of the most anticipated competitions on the local football calendar and will feature 64 teams, comprising 15 clubs from the top League and 47 teams from the other tiers.
Mozzart Bet Kenya Limited Director, Rolex Sirma, said the company’s decision to increase its investment reflected its confidence in the competition and in Kenyan football.
“We are proud to extend our partnership with the Mozzart Bet Cup for another three years with an enhanced sponsorship package worth KSh 90 million. This increase is a statement of confidence in Kenyan football, in the clubs, and in the leadership of FKF. We have seen how this tournament changes lives, creates opportunities and produces unforgettable stories, and we are excited to be part of its next chapter,” said Sirma.
One of the highlights of the new sponsorship is the introduction of individual cash awards for outstanding performers, alongside an improved prize structure for participating teams, further boosting the tournament’s competitive appeal.
The launch event also featured the Round of 64 draw, officially setting the stage for the 2026 Mozzart Bet Cup. The first round of matches will be played on 7 and 8 February, with the final scheduled for 17 June 2026.
