Review · Sportsbook
Paidbet lists a founding year of 2011. It takes bKash, Nagad and Rocket, plus a long list of cryptocurrencies, and runs in Bengali, English and Hindi with Taka as a currency.
The sportsbook covers cricket, football, basketball, tennis, horse racing and MMA, with darts, snooker and kabaddi among the smaller sports. Support is listed on live chat, email, WhatsApp and Facebook.
At a glance
So what: an offshore licence. It does not give you the player protection of a local regulator.
So what: online for several years.
So what: all three wallets most Bangladeshi bettors use.
So what: about ৳55 per ৳1,000 staked on our example odds. The average across the books we compared is 5.2%.
So what: online betting is an offence under the Gambling Prevention Act 2026. The Curaçao licence does not change that.

No. The Gambling Prevention Act 2026, passed on 1 July 2026, replaces the Public Gambling Act 1867 and covers online gambling and betting. Online betting carries up to 7 years in prison or a fine of up to ৳5 crore. The Cyber Security Ordinance 2025 (section 20) also makes gambling in cyberspace, including promoting it, an offence. Paidbet's Curaçao licence does not make betting legal in Bangladesh.
