Why is my deposit not showing on my account? If you’ve made a deposit but the funds are not appearing in your account balance, please try the following steps first: Refresh the page or app — this ensures your balance is updated in real-time. Do not reattempt the deposit until you’ve refreshed, to avoid duplicate transactions. Log out and log back in — this establishes a fresh session and can force your correct balance to display. 3D Secure Authentication Not Completed Many failed deposits are caused by 3D Secure (3DS) authentication not being completed or activated. 3D Secure is a security feature commonly used by your bank or card issuer, and must be approved by you. To resolve this: Contact your bank to enable or complete 3D Secure verification. In many cases, this can also be approved via your banking app. Once 3D Secure is successfully activated, you should be able to deposit without further issues. Card and Bank Troubleshooting Checklist If your deposit is still failing, please check these common banking issues: Minimum Amount: Ensure you are trying to deposit at least the minimum required transaction amount of R10. Registered Details: Verify that your card number, cardholder name, expiry date, and CVV/CVC code are typed exactly as they appear on your physical card. Gambling Blocks: Some banks block transactions to gaming sites by default. This block can normally be managed or removed by accessing your bank's mobile app or speaking to their customer services. Identity and Account Restrictions Deposits can fail if they trigger security or ownership checks: Registered Name Match: To comply with regulations, your deposit method must be in your own name. We are unable to accept cards or accounts belonging to someone else. Account Audits: If you see a message stating "Deposits are not permitted", there may be a temporary restriction while our team performs a standard review. Please check your registered email address for any messages regarding your account. Has the money left my bank? If the deposit failed due to incomplete authentication, no funds will be taken from your account. In some cases, the amount may appear as pending or temporarily held by your bank, but it will be automatically released. If the funds have successfully left your bank but have not shown in your playing balance, this is usually due to a connection dropout after payment approval. When this happens, your bank will normally release these pending funds back into your account automatically. If you continue to experience issues or if funds have been permanently deducted without appearing in your balance, please contact our support team. We may ask you to provide a screenshot of your bank statement showing the cleared transaction so that our agents can locate your funds.
