adda Bet — How Sports Betting Works, from Start to Finish
If you're placing a bet on adda Bet for the first time, a lot of questions come to mind — how do I deposit money into my account, what do odds mean, how do I use the bet slip? This page walks you through the entire process step by step.
Step One — Log In and Deposit to Your Account
To start betting, first go to the adda Login page and log in. Enter your username and password and your dashboard will open right away. If you're a new member, register — the full form is available in Bengali.
After logging in, go to the "Deposit" option. The minimum deposit on adda Bet is ৳300. Deposit methods include bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and bank transfer (major banks including BRAC Bank and Dutch-Bangla Bank). Select a payment method, enter the amount, confirm with a mobile OTP — the money is added to your balance instantly.
Once the deposit is done, your balance will show at the top of the screen. Then head over to the betting section.
Find Markets and Understand Odds
When you enter the sports section of adda Bet, you'll see game categories on the left — cricket, football, tennis, basketball, and many more. The cricket markets include match listings for tournaments like BPL, IPL, and the T20 World Cup. There's a separate guide on the cricket betting page for more on cricket betting.
Clicking on a match shows the "Markets" — options like match winner, handicap, over/under total runs, and more. Next to each option is a number — that's the odds.
adda Bet uses decimal odds. For example, odds of 2.25 for Team A to win means — if you bet ৳500 and win, your total return is ৳1,125 (৳625 profit + ৳500 original stake). In fractional format this is 5/4, and in American format it's +125.
| Format | Team A (to win) | Team B (favourite) | Return on ৳500 stake |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.80 | Team A: ৳1,125 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 4/5 | Team B: ৳900 |
| American | +125 | −125 | If you lose: ৳500 |
When Team B is the favourite, the odds are lower. If you bet ৳500 on Team B and win, you get back ৳900 (৳400 profit). These numbers are examples only — live odds change constantly.
Bet Slip — How to Place Single and Multi Bets
Clicking on the option you want to bet on will open the "Bet Slip" on the right or at the bottom. Enter your stake there and the potential return will be calculated automatically.
This is a simple example of a single bet. You're betting directly on one selection — if the result is correct you get your full return including the stake, otherwise you lose the stake.
Adding multiple selections to the bet slip creates a "multi bet" or "accumulator". In this case, each set of odds is multiplied together to form combined odds — the potential payout increases, but if even one selection is wrong you lose the entire bet.
Multi Bet Example — 3 Selections
Multi bets offer the chance of a higher return, but the risk is also higher. Always keep your stake within what you can afford.
How to Bet on Sports and Casino Games
In the sports betting section, alongside pre-match betting you can also do live in-play betting — odds change while the match is going on and you can still place bets. This is especially popular during Bangladesh Tigers cricket matches.
You can also bet on casino games at adda Bet. The live casino section has tables from Evolution, Pragmatic Play Live, and Ezugi — roulette, baccarat, Teen Patti, and many other options. For slot machines, set your bet amount before each spin. Detailed information on casino games is available on the adda casino page.
Before pressing the "Bet" or "Spin" button in any game, confirm your stake. The amount will be deducted from your real money balance — once confirmed, it cannot be cancelled.

Open and Settled Bets — How to View Your History
After placing a bet, go to the "My Bets" or "Bet History" menu and you'll find two tabs — Open Bets (results not yet in) and Settled Bets (results already decided).
Open Bets
If a match or game is still in progress, the bet will show as "Open". Here you can see the stake amount, odds, and potential return.
Settled Bets
Once the result is announced, the bet becomes "Settled" — winnings are credited to your balance, or for a loss, the deduction is shown.
Detailed Breakdown
For each settled bet, the date, market, odds, stake, and net result are shown separately.
To withdraw, cash out directly from your balance. The minimum withdrawal is ৳800, and the money typically reaches bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay within 5–30 minutes.
Set Your Budget and Limits Before Betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — not a way to earn income. Every bet carries the risk of losing. So set some limits for yourself before you start playing. For more on this, see the responsible gaming guide.
-
Daily Budget
Decide in advance how much money you'll put into betting each day. Once that amount is used up, stop for the day.
-
Maximum Stake Per Bet
It's better not to put a large portion of your total budget on a single bet — keeping each bet small lets you play for longer.
-
Time Limit
Decide in advance how long you'll play. Playing for too long reduces focus and weakens decision-making.
-
Loss Limit
Stop playing once you've lost a set amount. Avoid the temptation to place bigger bets to recover losses.
-
Account Limit Settings
You can set deposit and session limits from adda's settings — make use of this feature.
A Few Basic Rules
Only bet with money that, if lost, will not affect your daily life
Don't place bigger bets to quickly recover after a loss
Avoid betting when you've been drinking or are under excessive stress
Check your bet history regularly — how much you've won and how much you've lost
