Which Banks and Channels Work
The table below lists the banks and channels we tested with the 1xBet cashier, with reference to whether deposits, withdrawals or both were available as of 15 October 2026. Sampath Bank via Sampath Vishwa is one such channel to look out for.
| Bank / channel | Deposit | Withdrawal | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sampath Bank (via Sampath Vishwa) | Yes | Yes | Sampath Vishwa online banking; fastest local bank channel (deposit under 5 min, payout from 15 min) |
| Commercial Bank of Ceylon (ComBank) | Yes | Yes | Direct transfer via ComBank Digital / online banking; consistent and stable processing |
| Bank of Ceylon (BOC Flash / Bank Wire) | Yes | Yes | State bank via BOC Flash app; minimum withdrawal is LKR 2,000, payout limit up to LKR 50,000 |
| Seylan Bank | Yes | Yes | Seylan internet banking; highest single deposit ceiling among banks (up to LKR 50,000) |
| Nations Trust Bank (NTB / FriMi) | Yes | Yes | NTB online banking & FriMi digital wallet; deposit clearance within 15 minutes |
Banks which aren't on the list may still be operational, but we haven't tested them so you should check the cashier prior to arranging a payment.
How to Withdraw to Your Bank Account
Before you go ahead and request a payout, ensure your account is verified as a bank withdrawal can be held until your identity and payment details have been verified.
- Open the cashier and do a withdrawal. Choose Bank transfer.
- Enter the bank name, branch, account number and account holder name precisely as they appear in the bank's records. A single misspelling can result in the transaction being rejected.
- Type in the amount (must be at least LKR 1,000 (LKR 2,000 for BOC Flash)) and check it again before you proceed.
- Confirm the request with the SMS code sent to the phone number you registered.
- Save the request ID that's displayed on the screen as you'll need it if you get in touch with support.
- Watch your bank account for the credit and compare the amount you get with the amount you've requested.
Typical bank withdrawal time is 15 minutes to 24 hours (can be longer on weekends). For our own recorded payouts see withdrawal times.
Depositing via Sampath Vishwa or Online Banking
A deposit via bank is only possible if the cashier has a bank option for your account and that account is in a 'available' state. If you don't see it then use one of the other methods listed.
- Open deposit in the cashier and select the bank option.
- Note the amount and any payment reference the cashier generates and keep that screen open or copy the details before you leave it.
- Log into Sampath Vishwa or your own bank's app or website.
- Complete the payment exactly as instructed (i.e. enter the amount and the reference as they appear).
- Go back to 1xBet, check your balance and keep the bank confirmation until the deposit has appeared.
Without the reference the payment can take a lot longer to match to your account so do copy it carefully and check it before you confirm.
Name Matching and Reference Codes
- The name on the bank account must match the name on your betting account as the cashier will cross them.
- Use your own bank account only as payments to or from someone else's account are not accepted.
- Copy the reference codes exactly as even one character out and the payment won't be matched.
- Don't do any transfers from joint or business accounts unless the cashier specifically permits it as the account name may not be yours.
The vast majority of withdrawn funds get rejected due to a name mismatch so if yours is stuck then your first port of call should be the checks on the withdrawal pending page.
Bank Transfer Times and Fees
| Parameter | Deposit | Withdrawal |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum | LKR 500 | LKR 1,000 (LKR 2,000 for BOC Flash) |
| Maximum | LKR 50,000 | LKR 50,000 (LKR 49,000 at most banks) |
| Time | up to 15 minutes (up to 5 minutes with Sampath Vishwa) | 15 minutes to 24 hours |
| 1xBet fee | No fee | No fee |
Weekends and bank holidays can add time and your bank may charge you separately so be sure to check the fees page to see how to check both of those before you pay.
FAQ
- Q01Can I withdraw to a bank account if I've deposited via eZ Cash?
Not necessarily. 1xBet will typically pay out via the same method you originally deposited with (so eZ Cash will be your first option). Once your deposits and your payouts are matched up, a bank withdrawal will be available as an option. You can check the Withdrawals section of the cashier to see what options are available to you.
- Q02Why was my bank withdrawal returned?
The most frequent reason is a discrepancy between the name on the account and the name on your betting account. Incorrect account details or a closed account can also result in the payment being returned. Check the details you've entered, get in touch with support with your request ID and check your withdrawal pending checks.
- Q03Do banks in Sri Lanka block betting transactions?
Some banks may decline or flag payments linked to betting, and policies differ from bank to bank. If your bank declines a payment, ask the bank why. We do not suggest ways around a bank's decision, so choose another method listed in the cashier instead.
