Payment-method guides go live: UPI, M-Pesa, bKash, JazzCash, Pix and crypto walkthroughs

Deposit and withdrawal questions are by far the most common support tickets. People do not drop off because the welcome bonus is too small or because the odds look wrong. They drop off because the deposit failed silently, the currency converted at a bad rate, the wallet name did not match, or the ID check held the first withdrawal for two weeks. Today we are launching a dedicated section that attacks the deposit problem head-on: a hub at /payment-methods/ with a comparison table of every deposit option, plus six in-depth step-by-step guides for the methods our visitors actually use most.

What's live

Six dedicated method pages launched today. Each one is a full deposit walkthrough with country-specific fee breakdowns and a clear note on whether the welcome bonus applies:

• UPI — India's instant rails. Works with PhonePe, Google Pay, Paytm, BHIM. Min ₹100, max ₹2,00,000 per UPI rail rules. We cover the VPA syntax, the “collect request” flow, and what to do if your UPI app shows the bookmaker as unsupported.
• M-Pesa — Kenya's mobile-money standard. Paybill numbers, account-reference syntax, Lipa na M-Pesa fees and what changes if you're using the M-Pesa Global cross-border product.
• bKash — Bangladesh's wallet of choice. Send Money vs Payment vs Cash Out flows (only one is the right one for sportsbook deposits) and the cumulative monthly limit cap that catches new players off-guard.
• JazzCash — Pakistan's largest mobile wallet alongside Easypaisa. JazzCash account types (Mobile Account vs JazzCash Online), why most readers want the Mobile Account flow, and how to fix the “biller not found” error that hits when bookmakers rotate paybill IDs.
• Pix — Brazil's central-bank instant-transfer system. CPF / CNPJ / phone / random key types, Brazilian-bank QR scan flow, and the bookmaker's Pix-merchant ID handoff.
• Crypto — Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT (TRC-20 and ERC-20), Litecoin and the long tail. Network choice for stablecoins (TRC-20 is virtually always the right call), confirmation times by network, and how to pick a coin that doesn't hit you on the conversion FX on the deposit screen.

The hub: 18-method comparison table

On /payment-methods/ we publish a comparison table covering all 18 deposit-and-withdrawal methods 1xBet currently supports for overseas players. Each row shows the typical processing time (usually instant for deposits, hours-to-days for withdrawals), fee structure (what 1xBet takes vs what the payment method itself charges), the minimum deposit, a typical max per transaction, the markets where it is offered and whether the welcome bonus applies.

We deliberately don't sort the table by “best” — best is geographic. UPI is the right answer if you live in India and exactly the wrong answer if you live in Lagos. The table is sortable client-side by processing time, by minimum or by region so readers can find the right method for their actual situation.

Why these six first

Six methods cover roughly 75% of the volume our visitors generate, based on click-through data on the country-page deposit-options sections. UPI alone is around 30% of total deposit clicks because India is our single biggest country audience. M-Pesa and bKash together are another 20% from East Africa and Bangladesh. Pix is the biggest Latin American method and crypto is the catch-all for everyone whose local card-acquirer blocks gambling MCCs.

The next batch (planned for June): MTN Mobile Money, Airtel Money, Easypaisa, OXXO, PayU/PayPal, Skrill/Neteller, and a Visa/Mastercard direct-card guide that focuses on the common “3DS rejected” failure mode.

How the guides are written

Each method page is a plain-English walkthrough: what to tap, what fee to expect, and whether the welcome bonus applies. We check fees and processing times every month against 1xBet’s deposit screen and against deposits made by the editorial team.
