About ZABET1
ZABET1 is a sportsbook, prediction market and casino with accounts held in South African rand. You fund your account by EFT, crypto or e-wallet and play in rand, the deposit bonus can be claimed three times a day, the daily check-in bonus is paid to every account with no conditions attached, and our affiliates are paid on gross gaming revenue with a single deduction rather than on a figure that has been reduced by a list of fees first.

1. Play in rand, pay in with EFT or crypto
Your ZABET1 balance is held in South African rand (ZAR). Every stake, win, bonus and limit on the site is shown in rand, so you always know what a bet is worth in the currency you think in. How the money gets into that balance is up to you.
- Crypto deposits arrive as fast as the chain confirms them. You choose the amount in rand and the coin you want to pay with; the deposit screen shows the exact amount of that coin to send and the address to send it to. There is no bank in the middle and no card issuer deciding that a gambling merchant looks suspicious.
- Withdrawals leave the same way. You request an amount in rand and choose the coin and network; the withdrawal screen shows how much of that coin you will receive before you confirm.
- The same token, on more than one network. Where a token exists on several chains we support more than one of them, so you can move it over whichever network is cheapest or least congested at that moment.
- EFT and e-wallet. Pay straight from your bank by EFT through PayLab, or use SticPay as an e-wallet. The deposit screen lists the methods that are live for your account.
ZABET1 charges no deposit fee. The conversion between rand and the coin you pay with uses the rate our payment processor quotes at the moment the deposit is created; we add no commission or margin of our own on top of it. If less than the requested amount of coin arrives, the rand credited is reduced in the same proportion. Withdrawals carry a network fee, because broadcasting a transaction costs real money — it varies by coin, by network and by how busy that network is, and the figure shown on the withdrawal screen when you make the request is the one that applies. How all of that works is explained on the crypto transaction fees page.
Crypto deposits and withdrawals are processed through NOWPayments; e-wallet payments through SticPay; EFT bank payments through PayLab. They handle the movement of funds between you and your ZABET1 balance; the account, the balance and the gameplay stay with us.
We deliberately support a short list of coins rather than a long one. At present you can deposit and withdraw:
- USDT on TRON (TRC-20)
- USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20)
- USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20)
- Bitcoin (BTC) on the Bitcoin network
- Ethereum (ETH) on the Ethereum network
- Tron (TRX) on the TRON network
- BNB on BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20)
- XRP on the XRP Ledger — withdrawals require a Destination Tag
Send each coin only on the network shown beside it. A transfer sent on the wrong network cannot be recovered — not by us and not by anyone else, because that is a property of the chains themselves rather than a policy we chose. The deposit screen shows the address and its network together for exactly that reason, and it remains the authoritative list if we add or pause a coin between updates of this page.
2. A deposit bonus you can actually use
Our deposit bonus is 10% of the amount you deposit, up to 3,000 USD (paid in rand at the equivalent amount), and it can be claimed up to three times every day. It is not a welcome offer that fires once and then disappears; it is there on the third deposit of an ordinary Tuesday exactly as it was on your first deposit ever.
It is credited as soon as the deposit is confirmed. There is no queue, no manual approval step and no waiting for somebody to be at a desk — the same confirmation that credits your balance credits the bonus with it.
A bonus is still a bonus, and wagering conditions apply to it before it can be withdrawn. Those conditions are set out in full on the offer page, and we would rather you read them than be surprised by them.
3. A daily bonus that everyone actually gets
The Daily Check-In Bonus is paid to every account, every day. It is worth being precise about what it does not require:
- no deposit
- no minimum account level and no VIP tier
- no invitation, no code, no promotional email you had to open in time
- no minimum turnover before it can be claimed
Log in, press check in, and it lands in your balance. Come back the next day and the amount is larger than it was — consecutive days increase the reward, so a run is worth keeping. Miss a day and the run simply starts again; nothing already paid is taken back.

4. An affiliate programme that pays on the gross figure
ZABET1 affiliates earn 10% to 35% commission. The percentage matters less than the number it is applied to, and that is where this programme differs.
What the percentage is applied to
We calculate commission on gross gaming revenue less the bonuses your players were paid — stakes, minus wins, minus those bonuses. That is the whole calculation, and it is the same formula published on the affiliate terms page. Bonuses are the one deduction. Specifically, we do not deduct:
- an administration fee of any size
- game-provider royalties or content licence fees
- payment processing or blockchain network fees
- jackpot contributions
Why that is worth saying out loud
Most programmes in this industry pay a share of net gaming revenue rather than gross. Published affiliate terms across the sector commonly deduct, before the affiliate's percentage is applied: bonuses and free spins, chargebacks and fraud costs, jackpot contributions, gaming duties and VAT, payment processing fees, game-provider royalties and licence fees, and an administration fee. Administration fees of as much as 25% appear in published terms.
The effect is that two programmes advertising the same headline percentage can pay very different amounts, and the difference is not in the number on the landing page — it is in a definition several screens further down. Our differentiator is the base, not the headline: the percentage is applied to the gross figure, so the rate you agreed to is the rate the calculation uses.
| Operator | Bonuses | Admin fee | Provider royalties | Payment fees | Jackpot share | Gaming tax / VAT | Chargebacks / fraud |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roo*** | YES | NO | YES | YES | YES | YES | YES |
| Bit*** | YES | YES 25% | YES | NO | YES | YES | YES |
| Bet*** | YES | YES | NO | NO | YES | YES | YES |
| Roy*** | YES | YES | YES | YES | YES | NO | YES |
| Clo*** | YES | YES | YES | YES | NO | NO | NO |
| ZABET1 | YES | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO | NO |
YES = deducted from gross revenue before the affiliate percentage is applied. NO = not deducted. Our own row is drawn from the settlement formula, not from marketing copy.
Compiled from publicly published affiliate terms in August 2026. Operator names are shortened because published terms change without notice, and a table that is accurate today can be wrong six months from now. The point is not which operator is which — it is that the headline percentage means little until you know what it is a percentage of.
Being able to check the figure
- A dashboard that updates as bets settle, rather than a statement that arrives weeks after the fact. Plenty of operators offer real-time reporting and we make no claim to be unusual in doing so — it is simply the minimum we think an affiliate should expect.
- A per-player breakdown, so a total can be reconciled line by line instead of being taken on trust as a single number.
- A losing month never becomes a bill. If your players win more than they stake in a month, that month settles at zero. We do not invoice an affiliate, and we do not take the shortfall out of money already paid to you.
- The shortfall carries into the next month, and only the next month. It is offset against the following month’s gross revenue before your percentage is applied; if that still leaves nothing, the month settles at zero and the balance does not accumulate any further. The figure is shown on the Redeem page as “Carried from previous month”, so it is never applied invisibly.

COMP: every win earns something
COMP accrues on every win, at a rate that rises with your level. Converting it costs nothing and carries no wagering requirement — once converted it is ordinary balance you can stake or withdraw.
We moved COMP from bets to wins — and raised the rate when we did.
COMP used to accrue on every bet placed. That sounds more generous than it was. Sportsbook bets get voided, matches get postponed and markets get cancelled, and every one of those cases meant COMP had to be reversed off a bet that never really happened. It made balances move for reasons nobody could explain.
So COMP now accrues on wins, which settle once and stay settled. To make sure the change did not cost anyone anything, the COMP accrual rate was raised to a considerably higher percentage at the same time. Nothing was quietly traded away in the switch — the current rate for every tier is in the table below.
- the rate rises with your level — the table above is read live from your account settings
- wager milestones pay additional COMP on top of the running rate
- COMP converts to real cash balance with no wagering requirement — once converted it is ordinary money that can be staked or withdrawn
How COMP is earned and converted
The games
ZABET1 runs four things under one rand balance, so you never have to move money between wallets to switch between them:
- Sports — pre-match and in-play markets across the major sports, leagues and esports. The sportsbook itself is the live list of what is open.
- PrediX prediction markets — yes-or-no questions on sport and other events, settled on the real-world outcome.
- Live game shows and tables — money wheels, roulette, dice and the classic tables, hosted by a real presenter in a studio and streamed as it happens.
- Slots from major studios — classic reels, high-volatility modern engines, bonus-buy titles, jackpots and crash-style games.
Our games come from established outside studios rather than from us. Among the suppliers whose games run on ZABET1 are Hacksaw Gaming, Playtech and FunTa Gaming, each connected to your balance through a direct wallet integration, so a round is settled against the same funds you deposited without any transfer between wallets. They are not the only suppliers on the platform, and the line-up changes as titles are added and retired — the lobby is the current list.
The sportsbook works the same way: the odds, the markets and the settlement come from a licensed third-party sportsbook supplier rather than from us. We are not naming that supplier here, because our agreement with them governs how their brand may be used and we would rather say nothing than say something we have not cleared. What matters to you is the part we can state plainly — your bets settle against your ZABET1 balance, and the prices you see are the supplier's, not prices we have moved.
Fair play
We do not build our own games. RNG-driven games — slots, virtual table games, video poker, crash and dice — produce their outcomes inside the supplying studio's own systems, using certified random number generators. We cannot see a result before you do and we cannot change one after it is produced.
Each game's theoretical RTP is published in that game's own info panel, inside the game, where you can read it before you stake anything instead of having to hunt for it. Live tables are monitored continuously, and any game whose behaviour stops matching its stated mathematics is pulled.
Testing is not something we mark ourselves. A condition of our licence is that games must be tested and certified by an independent testing laboratory approved by the regulator before they can be offered. The laboratories Anjouan Licensing Services Inc. (Anjouan Gaming) recognises for that purpose include iTech Labs, BMM and GLI. Separately, our anti-money-laundering controls are audited by an independent auditor every year.
We should be exact about whose certification that is, because a lot of casinos are deliberately vague here. The games on ZABET1 are certified by their suppliers — each studio has its RNG and its titles tested by an approved laboratory and holds those certificates in its own name. ZABET1 does not hold a testing certificate of its own, and you will not find us implying otherwise by putting a laboratory's badge in our footer. We do not build games, so there would be nothing of ours for a laboratory to test.
Support
Support is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Live chat is typically answered within 3 minutes. Email to [email protected] is answered within 30 minutes. Those are the times we hold ourselves to at four in the morning as much as at four in the afternoon.

Languages
The site currently runs in English. That covers the interface, the promotion terms, the help pages and support itself. If we add a language, it will cover the promotion terms and help pages as well as the home page, so the conditions attached to a bonus can always be read in the language you play in.

Being licensed is not a badge on a footer. It is what puts hard obligations behind the things this page claims: player funds held in segregated accounts, a minimum playing age of 18, games certified by an independent laboratory before they go live, an independent anti-money-laundering audit every year, and a complaints route that does not end with us — complaints are acknowledged within 1 working day, resolved within 14 days, and anything unresolved goes to binding independent dispute resolution at our expense, never yours. The full route is set out on the betting rules page.
Playing responsibly. ZABET1 is strictly for adults aged 18 or over. Gambling is entertainment, not a way to make money — every game here is designed to return less than it takes in over time, so it should never be used to recover a loss or to solve a financial problem.
Deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion are available and our team can apply any of them to your account on request. If your play no longer feels like something you control, use them. In South Africa, the South African Responsible Gambling Foundation runs a free, confidential counselling line, 24 hours a day, on 0800 006 008. Details, and links to other independent support organisations, are on our responsible gambling page.
