How 1xBet Was Tested
Mahmudullah Jayed has used 1xBet on and off for several years, mostly for cricket, and for this review he went back through the whole journey again: registration, a bKash deposit, the welcome bonus, the Android app and a chat with support. It remains one of the biggest sportsbooks open to Bangladeshi players, with a market depth few rivals match, but it is also a busy, sometimes overwhelming platform. Here is what the testing found and who the platform suits.

Registration and verification
Signing up took only a couple of minutes during testing. 1xBet offers one-click, phone number and full email registration. You must be 18 or older to open an account.
- Choose a sign-up methodPick one-click, phone number or full email registration.
- Set country and currencySelect Bangladesh and BDT at the start, because changing the currency later means contacting support.
- Pick a bonus or enter a promo codeChoose the sports or casino welcome bonus, or decline it. A promo code field sits on the same form.
- Confirm the phone numberFor this review the sports bonus was chosen, the phone number was confirmed, and depositing was possible straight away.
- Complete the profile and verify1xBet can ask for identity documents before the first withdrawal or during a security check. Completing the profile and uploading a clear photo of an NID or passport early keeps a withdrawal from being held up.
A tip from hands-on testing: write down the account ID and password that one-click registration generates, or use email registration instead. Players who lose those details often struggle to recover their accounts later, especially if they never added a phone number or email to the profile.
Welcome bonus and promotions
New players can claim a 100% first-deposit bonus up to 15,000 BDT, available from a minimum deposit of 120 BDT. It is credited after the first deposit, and the bonus money cannot be withdrawn until the wagering requirement is met.
| Match | 100% of the first deposit |
|---|---|
| Maximum bonus | 15,000 BDT |
| Wagering | 5x the bonus |
| Bet type | Accumulators with at least 3 selections |
| Minimum odds | 1.40 per selection |
| Time to complete | 30 days |
| Alternative | Separate casino welcome package instead of the sports bonus |
100% match: 2,000 BDT in bonus funds.
5x wagering: 10,000 BDT in qualifying accumulators within 30 days.
Simple single bets on one Bangladesh match do not clear the bonus.
2,000 BDT bonusThe terms are fair by industry standards. The bonus amount also depends on the promo code and the current campaign, so check the figure shown on the deposit page before paying in.
Beyond the welcome offer, 1xBet runs a rotating list of promotions: a multi-deposit casino package, accumulator-of-the-day boosts, cashback-style offers and a promo code store where loyalty points can be exchanged for free bets. The conditions differ for each, so treat every offer on its own terms.
Sports betting and odds
The sportsbook is the main reason to choose 1xBet. On top football and cricket fixtures, 1xBet was usually at or near the best price on the main markets compared with other bookmakers listed on this site.
Margins are higher on niche leagues and long-shot markets, as they are everywhere. The in-play section updates quickly, and the bet slip supports singles, accumulators, systems and a bet constructor, which experienced bettors will appreciate.
Cricket betting
As a cricket writer, Mahmudullah spent most of his testing time in this section. 1xBet typically lists dozens of cricket matches at once, down to lower-tier T20 leagues that most bookmakers ignore.
For Bangladesh internationals the menu is usually fuller than at most local-focused sites. The downside is a crowded cricket page: for only the BPL or Bangladesh matches, use the search box or add the competition to favourites to avoid scrolling through a long list of minor fixtures.
Casino and live casino
1xBet's casino is huge, with thousands of slots and a large live casino. Navigation is the weak point, and searching by provider or game name is the easiest approach.
Filters exist, but the sheer number of titles makes browsing hard. Players planning to play mostly casino games should compare the separate casino welcome package with the sports bonus before registering: only one can be taken, and casino bonuses usually carry much heavier wagering.
Deposits and withdrawals
Payments are one of 1xBet's strengths for Bangladeshi players. A test deposit via bKash appeared in the account almost immediately, and there is no fee from the bookmaker side on standard deposits.
| Method | Min deposit | Deposit time | Min withdrawal | Withdrawal time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| bKash | Around 120 BDT | Usually instant | Shown in cashier | Usually within hours once verified |
| Nagad | Around 120 BDT | Usually instant | Shown in cashier | Usually within hours once verified |
| Upay | Varies, shown in cashier | Usually instant | Shown in cashier | Usually within hours once verified |
| CellFin | Varies, shown in cashier | Usually instant | Check cashier | Check cashier |
| Bank transfer | Varies, shown in cashier | Can take longer | Shown in cashier | Varies |
| Cryptocurrency | Varies by coin | After network confirmation | Shown in cashier | Varies |
Mobile wallet deposits from around 120 BDT are among the lowest entry points on the market. Minimum withdrawals vary more widely, from a few hundred BDT upwards. First withdrawals and larger amounts can take longer because of security checks, so always withdraw to the same method and number used to deposit to avoid delays.
1xBet App for Android (APK) and iPhone
1xBet offers a free Android APK from its official website rather than Google Play. On iPhone, most users rely on the mobile website, because the iOS app is not consistently available in the Bangladesh App Store. Fake copies of 1xBet are common.
| Android | APK from the official website, not Google Play |
|---|---|
| Android features | Full sportsbook, live streaming, casino, cashier and support chat |
| Android performance | Smooth on a mid-range phone in testing; home screen as busy as the website |
| iOS | Native app not consistently available in the Bangladesh App Store |
| iPhone alternative | Mobile website in Safari with the same features; can be added to the home screen |
| Price | Free to download and use |
| Updates | Offered inside the app when a new version is out, not via Google Play |
Only download the file from the official site, never from a third-party link, and never enter details on a copycat site. Changing an Apple ID region just to install a betting app is not recommended.

1xBet on a mobile phone
Customer support
Support is available 24/7 through live chat, with email and phone as alternatives. An agent answered a bonus wagering question correctly, although replies tended to be scripted.
| Channel | Availability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Live chat | 24/7 | A bot answers first; a specific question reaches a human agent after a short wait |
| Not stated | Better for complicated disputes, as screenshots leave a record | |
| Phone | Not stated | Alternative to chat |
For straightforward issues the service is fine; for complicated disputes, email with screenshots is the better route.
Safety, legality and responsible gambling
1xBet has operated since 2007 and runs its international site under a Curaçao licence. That offshore licence provides a basic regulatory framework, but it is not as strict as UK or Malta regulation.
Since 1 July 2026, online betting has been illegal in Bangladesh.
The Gambling Prevention Act, 2026 replaced the Public Gambling Act 1867 and explicitly bans online gambling and sports betting, including on offshore sites like 1xBet.
Players can face prosecution, with penalties of up to five years in prison or a Tk1 crore fine.
It is essential to check the law where you live and only gamble where it is legal and you are 18 or older; full details are on the page "Is online betting legal in Bangladesh?".
- Operating since 2007
- Curaçao licence for the international site
- Offshore licence, less strict than UK or Malta regulation
- Limited options for Bangladeshi players if a dispute goes wrong
- Deposit limits and self-exclusion tools in account settings
Gambling is for adults aged 18 and over. Set a budget before playing, never chase losses, and use the deposit limits or self-exclusion tools in the account settings if betting stops being fun.
1xBet FAQ
Is 1xBet legal in Bangladesh?
No. 1xBet is an offshore bookmaker licensed in Curaçao, but that licence does not make it legal in Bangladesh. Since 1 July 2026, the Gambling Prevention Act, 2026 bans online gambling and sports betting in Bangladesh, including on offshore sites like 1xBet, and players can face prosecution. Check the law where you live and only bet where it is legal and you are 18+; full details are on the page "Is online betting legal in Bangladesh?".
What is the 1xBet welcome bonus for Bangladesh?
The welcome offer listed on this site is a 100% first-deposit bonus up to 15,000 BDT, with a minimum qualifying deposit of 120 BDT. It must be wagered 5 times in accumulators of at least three selections at odds of 1.40 or higher within 30 days. The exact amount can vary by promo code, so check the deposit page.
Is it possible to deposit to 1xBet with bKash or Nagad?
Yes. Both bKash and Nagad are supported for deposits and withdrawals, with deposits usually credited almost instantly. Upay, CellFin, bank transfer and crypto are also available.
What is the minimum deposit at 1xBet?
Mobile wallet deposits start from around 120 BDT. Other methods have their own minimums, which are shown in the cashier.
Is there a 1xBet app for iPhone in Bangladesh?
Android users can download the APK from the official site. On iPhone, a native app is not reliably available in the Bangladesh App Store, so the mobile website is the practical option: it offers the same features and can be added to the home screen from Safari.
What are the 1xBet app requirements?
The Android APK needs Android 5.0 or newer, 2 GB of RAM, a 1.4 GHz processor and about 90 MB of free space. On iPhone, the mobile site in Safari is used instead, and it needs no download.
Is the 1xBet APK safe and free to download?
The APK is free. Download it only from the official 1xBet website, since copies from other sites may be altered, and switch the unknown-apps permission off again after installing.
How long do 1xBet withdrawals take?
Once your account is verified, e-wallet withdrawals are usually processed within hours. First withdrawals and large amounts can take longer because of security checks.
Verdict on 1xBet
Mahmudullah Jayed, Chief Editor & Betting AnalystFor a cricket fan who wants the widest choice of matches and markets, I find 1xBet very hard to beat, and the bKash and Nagad payments make it practical for everyday use in Bangladesh. In my view, it is not the right choice for complete beginners who want a simple, tidy site, and I would read the accumulator-only bonus wagering carefully. If you can live with the clutter, I consider it one of the most complete sportsbooks available to Bangladeshi players.
