Our Story

From a Dream to Bangladesh's #1 Platform

When 18bd launched in 2019, online betting in Bangladesh meant frustration more often than not — slow payouts, English-only support, and a lack of local payment options. The founders of 18bd set out specifically to solve these problems.

We started with just a few thousand members, but a reputation for honesty and instant payouts spread fast. Within two years, 18bd had become one of the most talked-about betting platforms in Bangladesh.

BKash & Nagad Integration — A Game Changer

After bKash and Nagad were integrated in 2020, 18bd's membership grew dramatically almost overnight. Bangladeshis had been waiting for exactly this — deposits and withdrawals in just a few minutes using the mobile banking they already know and trust. Today, 90% of 18bd's members bet on mobile.

A passion for Bangladeshi sports

18bd is more than a business — it's a platform built on a genuine passion for cricket, football, and sport across Bangladesh. Special odds and bonuses for every Bangladesh national team match, exclusive offers during the BPL season — these are our way of showing love for the game and the country.

"Before 18bd, betting felt like a hassle — waiting days just to withdraw my winnings. 18bd changed everything. Now my money hits bKash within minutes of a win."

— Abdullah Al Mamun, Sylhet (18bd Platinum Member)

Responsible Gaming — Our Commitment

18bd believes betting is a form of entertainment, not a livelihood. That's why we take responsible gaming seriously. Self-limit features, cooling-off periods, and the option to temporarily suspend your account are available to all members, free of charge.

  • Registration is strictly prohibited for anyone under 18 years of age
  • Set your own daily and monthly deposit limits
  • Free counselling referrals for problem gamblers
  • Option to self-close your account with 24 hours' notice

Technology & Innovation

The 18bd tech team works relentlessly to make payments faster, the mobile app smoother, and AI analytics more accurate. New features drop every month — driven by member feedback. We believe our members are our best product managers.

International License & Transparency

18bd is an internationally licensed platform. All operations are conducted in full compliance with regulatory guidelines. Transparency and accountability are at the core of everything we do.
