Crypto Transaction Fees

Everything you pay, and everything you do not, when moving crypto in and out of your rand (ZAR) balance at ZABET1 — deposit costs, conversion, withdrawal network fees, minimum amounts and how long each chain takes to confirm.

Last updated: 6 October 2026

ZABET1 charges no deposit fees. You choose a deposit amount in rand and the deposit screen tells you exactly how much of your chosen coin to send, using the rate our payment processor quotes at that moment. When that amount arrives, the full rand amount you requested is credited. We add no commission, no processing charge and no conversion margin of our own. If less coin arrives than the screen asked for, the rand credited is reduced in the same proportion. The only other cost of a deposit is the fee your own wallet or exchange charges you to send the transaction, which we neither set nor receive.

Withdrawal fees

Withdrawals work differently, because sending a transaction on a blockchain costs real money. When you withdraw, a flat network fee is deducted to cover the cost of broadcasting your transaction and getting it confirmed by the network. That fee is paid to the blockchain, not kept as profit on the transfer.

Network costs move constantly. A congested chain can be several times more expensive in the afternoon than it was in the morning, and a chain that is quiet costs almost nothing. Because of this, our withdrawal fees and minimum withdrawal amounts are reviewed against live network conditions and may change without prior notice.

The figure you see is the figure that applies

The fee and the minimum amount displayed on the withdrawal screen at the moment you submit your request are the ones that apply to that request. They are not estimates and they are not adjusted afterwards. If the network gets more expensive an hour later, your already-submitted withdrawal is unaffected.

Always read the figure on the screen rather than relying on a number quoted elsewhere, or on one you remember from last week.

Deposit confirmations

A crypto transaction is not final the instant it is sent. It has to be included in a block, and then further blocks have to be built on top of it before the network treats it as settled. Each of those blocks is one confirmation.

We credit a deposit once it reaches the number of confirmations required for that chain. Until then you may see the transaction on a block explorer while your ZABET1 balance has not moved yet — that is normal, and nothing is lost.

The required number differs per chain because chains produce blocks at very different speeds and have very different security assumptions. Bitcoin produces a block roughly every ten minutes, so even a small number of confirmations takes a while. Chains such as Tron produce blocks in seconds, so a deposit there can be credited almost immediately even though it waits for far more confirmations on paper. This is why a BTC deposit routinely takes longer to appear than a USDT-TRC20 deposit sent at the same moment.

Choosing the correct network

Several tokens exist on more than one blockchain. USDT is the clearest case: the same token circulates on Ethereum (ERC-20), on Tron (TRC-20), on BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20) and on several other chains besides. They share a name and a price, but they are separate assets on separate networks, and an address on one network cannot receive a transfer sent on another.

We accept USDT on two of those networks only — TRON (TRC-20) and Ethereum (ERC-20). Alongside USDT we support USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), Bitcoin on the Bitcoin network, Ethereum on the Ethereum network, Tron (TRX) on the TRON network, BNB on BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20), and XRP on the XRP Ledger. That is the complete list. The deposit screen always shows the address together with the network it belongs to, and it is the authoritative list if we ever add or pause an asset.

BNB Smart Chain is for BNB only. We hold a BEP-20 address for BNB, but we do not hold one for USDT or USDC. Stablecoins sent to us as BEP-20 will not arrive and cannot be recovered. Send USDT as TRC-20 or ERC-20, and USDC as ERC-20.

Note also that Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain addresses are indistinguishable by sight — both begin with 0x and are the same length. The network, not the address, is what decides where a transfer goes.

XRP withdrawals need a Destination Tag. Exchange deposit addresses on the XRP Ledger are shared by many customers at once, and the tag is what identifies which of them a transfer belongs to. A transfer sent without the correct tag reaches the exchange but is never credited to your account, and it cannot be recovered. Our withdrawal screen asks for the tag and will not accept an XRP request without one. Copy it from the same screen you copied the address from.

When you deposit, pick the network on the ZABET1 deposit screen first, then copy the address it gives you, then select the matching network in the wallet or exchange you are sending from. When you withdraw, do the same in reverse: confirm which network the receiving address belongs to before you paste it in.

Sending on the wrong network, or to the wrong address, usually means the funds are gone permanently. A deposit that arrives on a network we do not credit for that address, or a withdrawal sent to an address you mistyped, cannot be reversed by us, by the sender, or by anyone else — blockchain transactions are final. Recovery is not possible in most cases and is never guaranteed. Check the network and the full address, including the first and last characters, before confirming.

What it costs, asset by asset

This page deliberately does not print a per-coin table of fees and minimum amounts. A withdrawal fee is the cost of getting a transaction confirmed on a blockchain, and that cost is not a number we choose — it is set by how busy the network is at the moment you press the button. It differs from coin to coin, it differs between networks carrying the same token, and on a single chain it can change several times in a day. A figure printed here would be out of date almost as soon as it was written, and a player who trusted it would be misled rather than informed.

So the position is simply this:

Deposits cost you nothing on our side. ZABET1 charges no deposit fee of any kind. The rand amount you asked for is what lands in your balance when the coin amount shown on the deposit screen arrives.
Withdrawals are requested in rand. The withdrawal screen converts the amount to your chosen coin at the current rate and shows you the coin amount before you confirm.
On a withdrawal you pay the blockchain network fee. It is deducted to cover broadcasting your transaction and getting it confirmed. It is paid to the network, not retained by us as profit on the transfer.
That fee, and the minimum you can withdraw, vary by coin and by network and move with network congestion. Withdrawing USDT over Tron and withdrawing the same USDT over Ethereum are not the same cost, and neither is the same cost today as it was last week.
The authoritative figures are on the withdrawal screen. The fee and the minimum shown there at the moment you make the request are the ones that apply to that request — as set out above, they are not estimates and they are not adjusted afterwards.

Check the current fee and minimum

Which assets and networks we support changes too, as networks and providers change. The deposit screen and the withdrawal screen are the live list. If a coin or a network does not appear there, it is not currently supported — do not send it.

EFT and SticPay

This page covers crypto. Rand deposits and withdrawals by EFT through PayLab, and e-wallet payments through SticPay, follow the fees, limits and processing times shown on that method's own screen at the time you use it. ZABET1 adds no deposit fee of its own to either.

Why a withdrawal might be delayed

Most withdrawals are processed quickly. When one takes longer than you expect, it is almost always one of the following.

Verification is not complete. Under our licence conditions, enhanced due diligence is mandatory on your first withdrawal request whatever the amount, once your lifetime deposits reach USD 10,000 or the equivalent in rand, and wherever a risk check flags something. Where that has been triggered and the documents are not yet complete, the withdrawal cannot be processed — that is a licence requirement rather than a decision we can waive. Completing verification early, before you need a payout, is the single most effective way to avoid a delay. You can check the status of your documents in your account details.
An active bonus still has a wagering requirement outstanding. If a bonus is attached to your balance, the remaining turnover has to be completed — or the bonus cancelled, where cancellation is permitted — before the funds can be withdrawn.
The network is congested. Once a transaction has been broadcast, its progress is in the hands of the blockchain. During heavy congestion a confirmation that normally takes minutes can take considerably longer. The transaction hash we show you can be checked on a block explorer at any time.
A routine security or compliance check is in progress. Some requests are reviewed manually, for example an unusually large amount or a first withdrawal to a new address. This is a check, not a refusal.

If none of these apply and your withdrawal is still outstanding, contact us through Support with the date, amount and asset, and we will trace it.

Who holds your funds

ZABET1 is operated by U2IS Limited, an International Business Company registered under number 16249 with its registered office at Hamchako, Mutsamudu, Autonomous Island of Anjouan, Union of Comoros.

Player funds are held in segregated accounts, separately from the operating money of the business. That is a condition of the licence, and it is the reason a withdrawal is a transfer of money that was already being held for you rather than a payment out of the company's own working capital.
