Frequently asked questions
Is CHENGA free to play?
Yes. Your first competitive attempt each day is free. You can win without paying. You only pay if you choose to buy a soda by M-Pesa to continue a game after a red card.
How do I win money?
Finish in the top 10 scores of the day. At midnight Kenya time the top 10 verified players share the prize pool, paid to M-Pesa.
How do I get paid?
Verify your M-Pesa number in the game. Winners are reviewed each morning and paid to that number.
Do I need to download an app?
No. CHENGA runs in your phone's browser. You can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app.
What is a soda?
A soda revives your game after a red card so you keep your score. There is one daily game: one free start and up to three soda continuations, for four attempts total. Paid and free sodas use the same limit. The allowance resets at midnight Kenya time. Free sodas come from streaks, invites, installation and gifts.
How do free sodas work?
Play 3 days in a row for a free soda. You also earn one when a friend you invited buys their first soda. Install CHENGA and open it from its Home Screen icon to collect one installation soda per account. All sodas stay within the four daily attempts.
Can people cheat?
Our server replays every game from your taps and calculates the score itself. Unverifiable games do not count. Suspicious games are flagged for review before any prize is approved.
Is CHENGA a game of skill?
Yes. Your score depends only on your timing and aim. There is no random draw for prizes: the highest scores win.
Who can play?
Anyone 18 or older in Kenya.
