188bets FAQ — Straight answers to your questions

No, 188bets is strictly prohibited for anyone under 18. This is not just a rule — it is a firm policy in place to protect the financial and mental well-being of minors.

188bets collects your date of birth at registration and verifies your age via National ID during the KYC process. If a user is found to be under 18, their account will be closed immediately and any deposited funds will be returned.

188bets uses Decimal odds by default — the same format widely used across most betting sites in Bangladesh and Asia. It's also the easiest format to understand.

How Decimal odds work:

The formula is simple: Total payout = Stake × Odds

Profit = Total Payout − Stake Amount

The higher the odds, the greater the potential payout — but the lower the probability of winning. For example, odds of 1.30 suggest a high chance of winning but a smaller return, while odds of 4.00 offer a bigger payout but a lower chance of winning.

188bets does not charge any extra fees on deposits or withdrawals. However, your mobile banking provider (such as bKash or Nagad) may apply their own transaction charges — this is outside 188bets's control.
