Dafabet was founded in 2004. It runs two sportsbooks, OW Sports and Dafa Sports, and a separate betting exchange, Dafabet Exchange, where you can back and lay. Our review says exchange liquidity varies by sport, but is usually enough on major cricket matches.

Our odds data backs up the low margins. Over 38 matches from July to September 2026, Dafabet’s sportsbook had an average margin of 4.36%. The other bookmakers in our data averaged 5.47%, and a lower margin means better prices for you.

It takes UPI, Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, Netbanking and bank cards. Our review lists no crypto. Through our link its welcome offer is exclusive to our readers: 200% up to ₹20,000 plus a ₹500 free bet. Check the terms on Dafabet’s site before you opt in.

2. BC.GAME: Live Betting and Crypto (4.7/5)

BC.GAME was founded in 2017 and is crypto-first. It takes UPI, Netbanking, bank cards and crypto. Our review rates its live betting highly, with ball-by-ball markets and cash out.

Its welcome offer is spread over your first four deposits, with free bets. The wagering must be done on accumulators, and sports bets count for only half, so our review works it out at 40x for sports bettors.

• Best for: live betting with crypto.
• Good to know: read the bonus terms before you opt in.

1xBet has been running since 2007. Our review rates its cricket markets highly, including live ball-by-ball betting, and cash out works on many markets. The downside is a busy screen that can overwhelm a new user.

Payments and Withdrawals

Most of these sites take UPI, Paytm, PhonePe and Google Pay, and pay out to your bank account through UPI. BC.GAME, Gamdom and Stake are crypto-first: our reviews list UPI through a payment partner or a crypto on-ramp.

Some banks may decline these payments, so keep a second method ready.

Withdrawal times vary by site. Our reviews give UPI payouts of 15 minutes to 24 hours at 1xBet and Planbet, and 15 minutes to a few hours at Parimatch. 4rabet takes a few hours and Vavada 1 to 24 hours. Nextbet takes 24 to 48 hours, and Paripesa 24 to 72 hours, or officially up to 5 working days.

For crypto, our Gamdom review gives 5 minutes to 1 hour, and Stake’s crypto withdrawals often clear within minutes. Our Dafabet, 1win, BC.GAME and Stake reviews give no UPI payout time.

All 12 of our reviews mention a verification check, usually before your first withdrawal or a large one. Have your ID ready.

Tax: if a site pays out without deducting tax, the money is not tax-free. Your winnings are still taxable income.

For UPI deposits step by step, see our UPI betting sites guide.

Licences: Check the Register

Since 24 December 2024, Curaçao’s online gambling licences come from the Curaçao Gaming Authority, not the old Curaçao eGaming system. Its register, last updated on 21 September 2026, lists these licence holders.

Renewal pending means the licence has passed its expiry date and the register shows the renewal as under assessment.

For BC.GAME, 1xBet, Gamdom, Parimatch, Nextbet, Planbet and 4rabet, check the licence holder named on the bookmaker’s site against the regulator’s own register.

Bookmakers’ main domains often forward to other “mirror” domains, and the mirrors change. Check the address before you log in or pay.

Betting Apps

Google Play restricts gambling apps in India, so most of these bookmakers offer an Android app as an APK on their own site. On iPhone, use the bookmaker’s mobile site in Safari. Stake runs as a web app and Gamdom has no app, so both work in your phone’s browser.

For Android install steps, iPhone and UPI, see our cricket betting apps guide. Step-by-step app guides: the Dafabet app, the 1win app and the 4rabet app.

Illustration only, not a screenshot of a real site.

Cricket Markets and Live Betting

All 12 of our reviews list the IPL and international cricket. For live betting, our reviews list ball-by-ball markets at Dafabet, 1xBet, BC.GAME, Parimatch, Paripesa and Stake, and some at 1win and 4rabet. Gamdom focuses on match-winner markets.

Most of these sites offer cash out on at least some markets. Dafabet also runs a betting exchange, where you can back and lay. Our Khai-Lagai calculator works out the profit and liability on a back or lay bet.

IPL 2026: the season ran from 28 March to 31 May 2026. It had 74 matches, and RCB won. For the matches on now, see today’s cricket tips.

How to Pick a Safe Betting Site

1. Check the licence. Find the licence holder named on the site, then look it up on the regulator’s register.
2. Check the address. Mirror domains change, so check the web address before you log in or pay.
3. Start small. Make a small deposit and a small withdrawal before you add more.
4. Read the bonus terms. Wagering, time limits and win caps decide what a bonus is worth. Run the numbers in our bonus calculator before you opt in.
5. Keep your balance low. Our reviews advise against leaving large sums in a betting account.
