1xBit is a sportsbook and casino built around cryptocurrency, with 1xbit.com redirecting to the mirror address 1xbit1.com. No operator company and no gambling licence are published on the pages we could read, so we found no regulator, recognised or offshore, that oversees it. Its main strength is breadth: it claims more than 50 sports and over 1,000 events a day, plus esports, live casino, slots, toto and lotto. Its main weakness is transparency: no company, no licence, no responsible gambling page and no readable bonus terms. We found no restricted country list, but 1xBit does not hold a South African provincial licence and is not licensed to take bets from people in South Africa.

Licence and safety
We read the 1xBit homepage, its bonus rules pages and its promotions page. None of them names a company, a registered address, a licence number or a regulator, and no link to a licence, contact or responsible gambling page appears in the page content we received. The original domain, 1xbit.com, sends visitors to 1xbit1.com, a numbered mirror address. Mirror domains are often used by operators whose main address is blocked in some countries.
The homepage makes strong claims, such as guaranteed payouts, 100% payout on winning bets and total privacy. None of these is backed by a licence or independent audit that we could find, so treat them as marketing. Without a named operator there is no regulator to complain to and no outside check on fairness or on how customer funds are held. We are not saying 1xBit is unsafe; we are saying the information needed to judge that is not published. Our news search returned no regulator action naming 1xBit, but it did not return any licence record either.
Sports and markets
1xBit claims more than 50 sports and over 1,000 events every day, with pre-match and live sections. On the day we checked, the live and upcoming lists included the Bundesliga, La Liga, the Japanese J League, Australia’s A League and NBL, the KHL, ATP and WTA tennis, Japanese volleyball and a Valorant esports event, alongside many lower leagues. It claims more than 15 esports titles with their own markets. Statistics and results pages are linked. The promotions mention accumulator boosts of up to 15% and sports cashback. We found no published margin or odds comparison, so we cannot comment on price quality.
Casino games
A live casino and a slots section are linked from the main menu, along with toto, lotto and in-house BitGames such as Apple of Fortune. The homepage gives no game count, names no providers and publishes no RTP figures. Its claim of a reduced house edge is not supported by any figures we could see.
Welcome offer and the real terms
The homepage refers to a crypto first deposit bonus and says crypto bonuses often exceed card offers by 25 to 50%, but it gives no amount. Separate bonus pages exist for sports cashback, VIP cashback, crypto cash and free spins for a deposit, but each one loaded only its menus and title for us, with no terms. We therefore could not read the bonus size, minimum deposit, wagering multiple, minimum odds or expiry.
As an illustration only, not 1xBit’s stated rule: if a 100% bonus on a deposit worth $100 had to be rolled over 40 times on accumulator bets, the sum would be:
That is $4,000 of bets before the bonus could be withdrawn, and a higher multiple or a rule that includes the deposit would make it larger. If you cannot see the actual multiple and expiry, do not opt in.
Payments and withdrawals
1xBit is built around cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals. It claims more than 40 coins and names Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Dogecoin. The homepage also refers to depositing with any electronic payment method but does not list any card, bank or rand option, and we found no payments page. It claims withdrawals take 15 minutes on average; we could not verify that.
Crypto deposits carry risks of their own: the value of your balance can move with the coin’s price, transactions are hard or impossible to reverse if sent to the wrong address, and there is no bank or card chargeback route if a dispute arises. We do not recommend crypto gambling as a way around licensing rules.
Mobile
No app is mentioned on the pages we read. The site says it offers full functionality on all devices.
Support
The homepage claims 24/7 support and shows a Customer Support label, but we found no email address, phone number or contact page in the content we received. We did not test response times.
Responsible gambling tools
We found no responsible gambling page, no deposit limits, no time out or self-exclusion tools, and no age notice on the pages we read. That is the weakest area of the site.

South Africa
1xBit does not hold a licence from any South African provincial gambling board, and it publishes no licence from anywhere else. It is not licensed to take bets from people in South Africa, and South African readers should use a provincially licensed bookmaker instead. See our list of licensed South African betting sites.
How we reviewed 1xBit
On 17 October 2026 we requested 1xbit.com, which redirected to 1xbit1.com. We read the English homepage and its links, and tried the bonus rules, crypto cash bonus and promotions pages, which returned menus but no terms text. We found no terms, payments, contact or responsible gambling page to check. We ran a news search for licensing and regulator action. We did not open an account, deposit or place bets.
