Method A: Direct OPay App Push / QR Code
1. Log into your 8XBet account and tap “Deposit” in the header navigation.
2. Select “OPay” from the list of available payment channels.
3. Enter the amount in Naira you wish to deposit (e.g., 2,000 NGN, 5,000 NGN, or 10,000 NGN).

2. Funding via PalmPay and Monnify Virtual Bank Transfer
If you prefer PalmPay or direct mobile bank apps (GTBank, Zenith, Access, UBA, First Bank):
- Navigate to the 8XBet Deposit page and select “Bank Transfer / Monnify” or “PalmPay”.
- Enter your desired deposit amount.
- The system generates a dedicated, temporary virtual account number (e.g., Wema Bank, Sterling Bank, or Moniepoint Microfinance Bank).
- Copy the 10-digit virtual account number.
- Open your PalmPay or banking mobile application and initiate an ordinary bank transfer to the copied account.
- Within 30 to 60 seconds after completing the transfer, the payment gateway auto-reconciles the transaction and credits your 8XBet balance.
3. Debit Card & USSD Funding Options
Nigerian debit cards and quick USSD codes provide convenient funding alternatives:
• Nigerian Debit Cards (Interswitch Verve, Visa, Mastercard): Enter your 16-digit card number, expiry date, and 3-digit CVV. Complete the 3D-Secure One-Time Password (OTP) sent by your card-issuing bank. Card payments carry zero gateway charges.
• Direct Bank USSD: Select the USSD option, choose your bank (e.g., GTBank *737#, UBA *919#, Zenith *966#), dial the pre-filled string on your registered SIM, and authorize with your USSD PIN.
4. Deposit Limits, Fees, and Pending Transaction Resolution
