Our Story
About 88abt — Bangladesh's Home of Cricket Betting & Online Casino
Founded with a single purpose — to give Bangladesh's cricket fans and casino enthusiasts a platform that truly understands them. From Dhaka to Cox's Bazar, 88abt is built for the Bangladesh market, in English, with BDT at the centre of everything.
Where It All Began
The 88abt Story
88abt was built on a straightforward observation: Bangladesh has one of the most passionate cricket-following populations in the world, yet the country's online betting market was dominated by platforms designed for audiences in Europe or South Asia at large — platforms that treated BDT as an afterthought, didn't integrate bKash or Nagad, and offered little meaningful support in English for Bangladeshi players.
The founding team behind 88abt set out to change that. Starting with a focus on cricket betting and expanding rapidly into live casino, slots, fishing games, and sports betting, 88abt was engineered specifically for the Bangladesh market — BDT-native, mobile-first, and deeply integrated with the payment methods that Bangladeshi players already use every day: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay.
From day one, the platform has operated with a clear commitment to transparency, fair play, and responsible gambling. Every game on 88abt is powered by certified providers whose RNG (Random Number Generator) outcomes are independently audited. Every transaction runs through encrypted payment channels. And every player — from a cricket fan in Mirpur placing their first BPL bet to a seasoned baccarat player in Chittagong — receives the same standard of service.
Our founding principle: Build the platform that Bangladesh players actually deserve — with BDT payments, English support, and cricket at the heart of every product decision.
Platform Milestones
Platform goes live with cricket betting markets covering BPL, IPL, and international Bangladesh Tigers fixtures. bKash and Nagad integrated from day one as primary deposit and withdrawal channels.
Evolution Gaming and Ezugi live dealer tables launch alongside a curated slots library from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, and Microgaming — giving players a full casino experience in BDT with no foreign exchange fees.
Monkey King Fishing and additional interactive fishing titles join the lobby. The sports betting section expands beyond cricket to include football, kabaddi, and hockey — all with BDT markets and real-time in-play odds.
88abt has grown into Bangladesh's most trusted online cricket betting and casino platform — with 500,000+ registered players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar.
What Drives Us
Our Mission & Core Values
88abt's mission is straightforward: to deliver the most trusted, most enjoyable, and most locally relevant online betting and casino experience available to players across Bangladesh. That mission shapes every product decision, every support interaction, and every payment partnership we pursue.
We believe that a platform serving Bangladeshi players should be built around the rhythms of Bangladeshi life — cricket seasons, Eid celebrations, Pohela Boishakh, and the daily reality of bKash and Nagad being the primary financial tools for millions of people. 88abt is not adapted for Bangladesh; it was designed for Bangladesh from the outset.
Our values are not marketing language. They are operational commitments reflected in how the platform runs day to day — in the speed of withdrawals, the quality of customer support, the fairness of our games, and the transparency of our terms.
Every bonus term, withdrawal condition, and wagering requirement on 88abt is written in plain English and published clearly. We do not hide conditions in footnotes. Players in Bangladesh deserve to know exactly what they are agreeing to before they deposit.
The 88abt interface is designed by people who understand how Bangladesh players actually use their phones — on 3G connections, in portrait mode, switching between the cricket score and their betting slip. Mobile experience is not an afterthought; it is the primary product.
All slot and casino games on 88abt are supplied by licensed, internationally certified game studios. RNG outcomes are audited regularly to ensure genuine randomness. No game on the platform is manipulated — what you see on screen is what the algorithm produces.
Our customer support team operates around the clock and communicates in English — the working language of our platform. Whether a player in Sylhet has a question at 2am during a live cricket match or a Dhaka player needs help with a bKash withdrawal on Eid morning, support is always available.
Key Differentiators
Why Bangladesh Players Choose 88abt
Six things that set 88abt apart from every other online betting platform available to Bangladeshi players.
Deposits and withdrawals run entirely in Bangladeshi Taka with zero currency conversion fees. bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay transactions credit instantly to your 88abt balance. Minimum deposit is just ৳500 — the most accessible entry point in the Bangladesh market. No SWIFT transfers, no dollar conversions, no delays.
88abt is not a generic sportsbook that happens to offer cricket. Cricket — specifically BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup, and Bangladesh Tigers international matches — is the product lead. In-play markets update ball by ball. Odds are competitive and specifically calibrated for the Bangladesh audience's betting preferences.
The 88abt lobby features over 1,200 certified game titles spanning live casino tables (Evolution Gaming, Ezugi), video slots (Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming), fishing games (Monkey King Fishing and more), and Aviator-style crash games — all playable in BDT from a single wallet with no separate account needed.
No app download required. The 88abt platform is a fully responsive Progressive Web App that works on any Android or iOS device running a modern browser. Low-bandwidth mode keeps the experience smooth on 3G connections in areas outside Dhaka and Chittagong. Add to home screen for one-tap app-like access.
Bonus calendar is aligned with the Bangladesh sporting and cultural calendar — BPL season welcome offers, IPL special reload bonuses, Eid cashback promotions, Pohela Boishakh anniversary offers, and Ramadan responsible gaming reminders. All bonuses are denominated in BDT with clear English terms.
256-bit SSL encryption protects all data in transit. Account passwords are stored as cryptographic hashes — never visible to any staff member or accessible via database queries. Two-factor authentication via SMS to your Bangladeshi mobile number is available and strongly recommended for all players. Login activity alerts keep you informed of every account access event.
What We Offer
The Complete 88abt Platform
88abt is a full-service online entertainment platform. From the moment a Bangladesh player logs in, they have access to every product category under one roof — with a single BDT wallet, a single login, and a single support team covering everything.
The platform is built to accommodate the full range of players who make up Bangladesh's online betting community: casual cricket fans who place a few BDT on a BPL match during tournament season; serious bettors who follow international cricket markets daily; live casino enthusiasts who prefer the atmosphere of a real dealer table over automated slots; and fishing game fans who enjoy the interactive, skill-influenced gameplay that titles like Monkey King Fishing provide.
All product categories share the same BDT wallet — there is no need to transfer funds between a "sports wallet" and a "casino wallet". Deposit once via bKash and your balance is immediately available across cricket betting, live casino, slots, and fishing games simultaneously.
88abt serves players across all major cities and regions in Bangladesh — Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, Comilla, Narayanganj, and Cox's Bazar.
