How To Make Your First Deposit at Betway Once Signed Up

Now that you’re registered with Betway, you’re ready to make your first deposit and start betting. Let’s take you through the simple process for funding your Betway account.

• Once logged in, click or tap My Account
• Select Deposit Funds and choose the deposit method which is most convenient for you
• Enter the amount you’d like to deposit then click or tap Proceed
• Depending on your chosen method, enter your card details, voucher number or banking information. Then click or tap Next
• Complete your bank’s authorisation (if necessary)
• Your funds should be credited to your Betway account. If not, contact Betway Customer Support

Now all that’s still required is for you to send in your FICA documents (Copy of your ID/Passport plus and a bank statement/bill with your name and address on it) to support@betway.co.za. Verifying your account will ensure you receive a R25 Welcome Free Bet which you can use right away. If your account is successfully verified upon registration you won’t have to send in your FICA documents to receive the R25 Free Bet. However, we recommend submitting these documents ASAP because your account will need to be FICA verified before you can request your first withdrawal.

• Make your selection by clicking or tapping the odds of your preferred bet
