1xBet deposits India 2026: UPI, PhonePe and Paytm payment guide

Depositing in 1xBet is the step between creating an account and placing real-money bets on cricket, IPL, or casino games. All major Indian payment methods are supported with no fees and instant or near-instant processing. This guide covers exact limits per method, step-by-step UPI instructions with UTR confirmation, and how to fix the most common deposit problems.

What is a 1xBet deposit and why it is needed

A deposit transfers funds from your bank account or UPI wallet to your 1xBet betting balance. Without a funded balance, the platform is browse-only – no bets can be placed on cricket, IPL, or any other market, and casino games run in demo mode only. Completing registration is required before the first deposit, as the payment section is only accessible to logged-in account holders.

Deposits also unlock the welcome bonus. The offer activates automatically after a qualifying first payment meets the minimum amount. Bonus funds are credited separately and cannot be withdrawn until wagering conditions are met.

How to deposit via UPI on 1xBet

UPI is the most widely used deposit method in India on 1xBet. The process requires a UTR (Unique Transaction Reference) number to confirm the payment – this is the step most users miss on their first attempt.

Step 1. Log in to your 1xBet account and tap the Deposit button at the top of the screen.

Step 2. Select UPI from the list of payment options.

Step 3. Enter the deposit amount (minimum ₹300).

Step 4. 1xBet will display a UPI ID on screen. Open your UPI app – Google Pay, PhonePe, BHIM, or any bank UPI app – and send the payment to that ID.

Step 5. Once the payment goes through, copy the UTR number from your UPI app’s transaction history.

Step 6. Enter the UTR back in 1xBet along with your name and registered phone number. Tap Confirm.

The balance typically updates within 5 to 15 minutes. If it has not appeared after 30 minutes, contact support with the UTR number ready.

PhonePe deposit steps

Step 1. Select PhonePe from the deposit options.

Step 2. A mobile number appears on screen – send your payment to it from the PhonePe app.

Step 3. Copy the UTR or reference ID from your PhonePe transaction history.

Step 4. Enter the reference ID, amount, email and phone number in 1xBet. Tap Confirm.

PhonePe transactions are usually the fastest of all UPI-based methods – most process instantly or within two minutes.

Other payment methods: Paytm, Google Pay, NetBanking

Paytm and Google Pay follow the same process as standard UPI – send to the displayed ID, then confirm with the transaction reference. Google Pay is typically the quickest option.

NetBanking has a higher minimum at ₹500 and takes slightly longer to process (5-10 minutes) but is a reliable option for players who prefer direct bank transfers. Select NetBanking from the deposit list, choose your bank, complete the transfer in your bank’s portal, and the balance updates automatically once the transfer clears.

Processing times and what causes delays

Most deposits on 1xBet are instant or complete within a few minutes. Delays do happen and are almost always caused by one of the following:

• Payment provider processing delays during peak hours
• Account verification pending – unverified accounts may see additional review steps
• Incorrect UTR or reference number entered in the confirmation step
• Network issues on the user’s side during confirmation

Processing times by method are shown in the table above. If a deposit is outside these windows and still has not arrived, contact 1xBet support via live chat with the UTR number.

Failed deposits and how to fix them

Three issues come up regularly:

Funds deducted but balance not updated. This is usually a processing delay, not a failed transaction. Wait 30 minutes. If still unresolved, open support chat with the UTR number – the team can locate and manually confirm the transaction using that reference.

Transaction rejected. The most common cause is a name mismatch – the name on your bank account must match the name on your 1xBet profile exactly. Even a minor difference (abbreviation vs full name) will trigger a rejection. Check both and correct if needed before retrying.

Deposit stuck in pending. Usually means account verification is incomplete. Check the verification status in your profile and upload any requested documents. The deposit will process once the account review is cleared.

Deposits and the welcome bonus

The first deposit directly triggers the welcome bonus if you selected it during registration. No manual opt-in is needed – the offer activates automatically once the qualifying deposit is confirmed. The minimum qualifying amount is ₹300 for most methods.

Bonus funds land in a separate bonus account and cannot be withdrawn until wagering requirements are met. Sports bonus requires 5-10x wagering on accumulators; casino bonus requires 35x within 7 days. Read the full bonus conditions before choosing which package to activate.

Deposits in the 1xBet mobile app

The deposit process in the 1xBet mobile app is identical to the web version – same payment options, same limits, same processing times. The Deposit button sits at the top of the home screen after login. The app makes the UTR confirmation step slightly more convenient since the transaction history in your UPI app and the 1xBet confirmation screen are both accessible without switching browsers.

The app is available as an Android APK download from the official site and through the App Store for iOS users. Casino games including live dealer and crash titles are accessible immediately after a successful deposit in the Standard app version.

Depositing from the casino section of the app works the same way – tap the balance indicator and follow the same UPI or PhonePe steps above.

Tips for secure deposits

1xBet uses TLS encryption and PCI-DSS certified payment gateways for all transactions. On your side:

• Verify the UPI ID shown on screen before sending – it should be a legitimate 1xBet payment address
• Make sure your bank account name matches your 1xBet profile exactly
• Only use your own bank accounts – deposits from third-party accounts are rejected and may trigger account review
• Only access 1xBet through the official domain or the app downloaded from the official source

For a full independent assessment of the platform’s safety record and legal standing in India, the 1xBet India review covers both in detail.

FAQ

What is the minimum deposit in 1xBet India?

₹300 for UPI, PhonePe, Paytm, and Google Pay. NetBanking has a higher minimum at ₹500. Check the table at the top of this page for the full breakdown by method. The minimum can vary slightly depending on the active payment gateway at the time.

How long does a 1xBet UPI deposit take?

UPI deposits typically process in 5 to 15 minutes. PhonePe and Google Pay are usually faster – often instant or within two minutes. NetBanking takes 5 to 10 minutes. If a deposit has not arrived after 30 minutes, contact support with your UTR number.

What is the UTR number and why does 1xBet ask for it?

UTR stands for Unique Transaction Reference – a 12-digit code generated by your bank or UPI app for every transaction. 1xBet uses it to locate and verify your payment on their end. After sending the payment, open your UPI app’s transaction history and copy the UTR. Enter it in the 1xBet confirmation screen along with your name and phone number.

Why was my 1xBet deposit rejected?

The most common reason is a name mismatch – your bank account name and your 1xBet profile name must match exactly. Other causes include entering an incorrect UTR, depositing below the method’s minimum, or incomplete account verification. Fix the specific issue and retry. If the problem continues, contact 1xBet support via live chat.

Does 1xBet charge fees for deposits?

No. 1xBet does not charge fees for deposits via UPI, PhonePe, Paytm, Google Pay, or NetBanking. The full amount deposited reaches your balance. Your bank may apply its own charges in rare cases, but this is not standard for UPI transactions in India.

Can I deposit in 1xBet without creating an account?

No. The payment section is only accessible to registered, logged-in users. Registration takes about two minutes using a phone number and takes you directly to the deposit screen once complete. After the first deposit, bets on cricket, IPL and casino games are immediately available.
