Melbet's login screen has three tabs (By email / ID, By phone and By code), plus social network buttons at the bottom. Which one you use depends on how you registered. Here's how each one works, how to get back in if you've forgotten your password, and how to avoid fake login pages.
Each tab gets you into the same account. Use the details you registered with:
Enter your e-mail address or your Melbet account ID in the E-mail or ID field, then your password, and press Log in.
Your account ID is the number Melbet gave you when you registered. If you used One-click, it's the ID shown on screen at sign-up. Once you're logged in, it's also in My Account.
The +251 code is filled in. Type your number without the leading 0 (91 123 4567, not 0911 234 567), enter your password and press Log in.
No password needed. Enter your phone number, keep SMS as the method and press Send via SMS. Type in the code you receive and you're logged in.
Handy if you've forgotten your password but still have your phone. It's also the safest option on a shared device, because nothing is saved.Below the form, under You can log in to your account via, are buttons for social accounts. Use the one you registered with, or one you've linked in your profile.
Type the address yourself or use a bookmark. Don't follow links from messages.
It's at the top right of every page on the website and on the app's start screen.
By email / ID, By phone or By code.
Your password, or the SMS code if you're using By code.
Tick Remember only on your own phone or computer.
Your balance in ETB appears in the header once you're signed in.
It's the same account and the same details everywhere. Only the screen changes.
| Device | How | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Desktop | melbet.et in any current browser | On a shared computer, use By code and leave Remember unticked. |
| Mobile browser | melbet.et in Chrome, Safari or another browser | Add the site to your Home Screen for one-tap access. |
| Android app | Open the app and sign in on the start screen | Use the official app only, see the Android guide. |
| iPhone | Safari or the current iOS option | See Melbet on iPhone. |
It's under the password field on the By email / ID and By phone tabs.
Use the one connected to your account.
A reset code or link is sent to that phone or e-mail.
Choose one you haven't used before, then sign in with it.
In a hurry? The By code tab gets you in with just an SMS, so you can reset the password afterwards in your security settings. If you no longer have the phone or e-mail on the account, contact support, who will verify your identity before restoring access.
Check you're on the right tab. An account ID won't work on the By phone tab. Also check Caps Lock, and that the phone number has no leading 0. After a few failed tries, reset the password rather than guessing.
If you added a phone number, use By code. If not, contact support.
Wait a minute and request it again. Check signal, and that the number is the one on your account.
Check your connection, then try another browser or switch between mobile data and Wi-Fi. Clearing the browser cache fixes many loading problems.

The number assigned to your account at registration. One-click sign-ups see it on screen straight away. It's also shown in My Account.
Press "Forgot your password?" on the login screen, or log in with an SMS code on the By code tab and change it in your security settings.
Yes. One login gives you the whole account.
