89db apps Bet — Complete Sports Betting Guide from Start to Finish
How to fund your account, choose markets, read odds, and place bets on the bet slip — every step explained in plain language.
Log In and Add Funds to Your Account
Before placing a bet on 89db apps Bet, first log in from the 89db apps Login page. Once inside your account, go to the Deposit section. The minimum deposit is just ৳300.
Payments are currently accepted via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and bank transfer. You can also make direct bank transfers using well-known banks such as IFIC Bank, Dutch-Bangla Bank, and Sonali Bank. After depositing, the balance is usually credited within a few minutes, after which you can go straight to the bet markets.
If you prefer betting from your mobile, you can use the 89db apps app. Both Android (APK) and iOS versions are available through official channels.
How to Find Markets and Read Odds
Odds may be shown in three different formats. You need to know how much return each one gives.
Decimal Format
The most common format. Stake × Odds = Total Return. If Team A's odds of winning are 2.25, a ৳200 bet returns ৳450 in total.
Fractional Format
A format from British tradition. 5/4 means ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked. On a ৳200 bet, profit is ৳250, giving a total return of ৳450.
American Format
+125 means ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet. -400 means you need to stake ৳400 to make ৳100 profit.
Single Bet and Multi Bet — Stake and Return
Clicking on a market adds the selection to the bet slip. A single bet has one selection and one stake. Say Team A's odds are 1.80 and Team B's odds are 2.00 in a cricket match. Placing ৳500 on Team B returns ৳1,000 if Team B wins (৳500 profit); if Team A wins, the ৳500 is lost.
A multi bet combines multiple selections. If three selections have odds of 1.60, 1.70, and 1.90, the combined odds are 1.60 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 5.17 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳517 if all three selections win. But if any one of them loses, the entire ৳100 is lost — multi bets carry higher risk.
After entering your stake, press the "Place Bet" button to confirm the bet. A confirmation message will show a reference number.
* A return is paid only if all selections win.
Betting on Sports and Casino Games
Among the sports betting options at 89db apps Bet, cricket is the most popular. You can bet on team and innings-based markets for BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup, and other international matches. For more details on cricket betting, visit the 89db apps Cricket Betting page.
Live markets are also available for football and other sports. In live betting, odds change continuously while the match is in progress, so it is best to keep your eyes on the screen before placing a bet.
You can also bet on casino games — a round of live Baccarat, Roulette, or Teen Patti starts with a set stake. To see the full casino game lineup, visit the 89db apps Casino page.
Open and Settled Bets — Viewing Your History
After logging in, go to the "My Bets" or "Bet History" section to see a list of all your bets. Open bets mean the match or event is still ongoing or the result has not yet come in. Settled bets mean the result has been decided and any return has already been added to your balance.
The details of each bet show the market name, odds, stake, and result. You can also understand from here why a return on a particular bet was different. Looking at a long record gives you a clear picture of your spending — which helps with keeping to a budget.
Cashback or bonus-related transactions also appear separately in the balance history section. 89db apps VIP members can find their weekly cashback figures here.
Set a Budget and Limits Before You Start Betting
Betting is entertainment, not a source of income. Before each bet, decide how much spending is right for you.
Weekly Budget
Decide in advance how much money you will spend on betting each week. Once you reach that amount, it is better to stop for the rest of the week.
Loss Limit
Decide in advance how much you are willing to lose before you stop. Placing larger bets to recover losses usually leads to even bigger losses.
Take Breaks
Taking breaks instead of betting continuously for long periods is a healthy habit. Betting with a clear head makes for a much better experience.
Get a 100% Bonus on Your First Deposit
New accounts at 89db apps get a 100% bonus on the first deposit, up to ৳5,000. Example: deposit ৳1,000, get ৳1,000 bonus, total balance ৳2,000; wagering requirement ৳1,000 × 20 = ৳20,000. Deposit a minimum of ৳300 via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or bank transfer. Withdrawals are usually processed in 10–45 minutes. If you need support, 24/7 live chat and email assistance are available in Bengali.
BACK and LAY Bets on the Betting Exchange
Two types of positions can be taken in exchange betting. BACK bet: betting in favour of Team A winning. If you BACK ৳500, and Team A wins, you gain ৳750 before commission; if they do not win, you lose ৳500.
LAY bet: betting against Team A winning. LAYing against a ৳500 bet creates a liability of ৳750 (৳500 × 1.50). If Team A does not win, you receive ৳500 (before commission); if Team A wins, you pay ৳750.
The exchange odds used in this example are 2.50. A proper understanding of the exchange is important — the risk on a LAY bet can be much higher. To learn the full rules and conditions, see the Terms and Conditions page.
