Paying in and out at Apexbets
You can pay by Capitec Pay, Ozow, Instant EFT, card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, or with OTT, 1Voucher, Kazang and Blu vouchers. By its terms, a deposit by direct bank transfer or in cash starts at R100, and a bank transfer can take 2 to 3 business days. A voucher deposit must be played through in full before you withdraw winnings.
Before it pays a withdrawal into your bank account, Apexbets checks your ID, a utility bill and, for EFT, a bank statement. Its terms say it pays within 72 business hours of confirming the funds, plus the bank's time, unless the account is under fraud review. Send the documents early.
