African Game Hub: play chess against real players across Africa

The games

One account and one wallet for every game on the hub.

Play free, or stake 50 to 1,000 tokens

1
Create an account
A username, an email and your country. It takes a minute. You must be 18 or older.
2
Get 1,000 free tokens
They are in your wallet as soon as you confirm your email.
3
Play real opponents
Pick a stake and a time control. We pair you with a player near your rating, from anywhere in Africa.
4
Win tokens
The winner takes the pot, less a 10% fee. For now the hub is free to play: tokens have no cash value. Playing for real money, with deposits and cash-outs, is coming later and only in countries where it is licensed.

Every move is checked by the server.
Your phone only shows the game. It cannot make an illegal move or change the position.
The clocks run on the server.
Time is measured on our side, so nobody gains seconds by tampering with their device.
Your wallet records every token.
Each stake, win and refund is written to a ledger that cannot be edited afterwards.

Players from 54 countries can sign up today.

The hub speaks English and French. Portuguese, Swahili, Arabic and Kinyarwanda are on the way.
