1xBet Nigeria Withdrawal (2026)

In our timed test on 8 November 2026 a 1xBet withdrawal to OPay took 2 min 42 sec from tapping Confirm (16:41:25) to the OPay receipt (16:44:07). The request showed "Under review" for about 10 seconds, then "Approved", and the money followed a few minutes later. That made 1xBet the slowest of the five sites we tested that day.

The other four sites we tested on 8 November 2026 — Betway, BetKing, SportyBet and Bet9ja — paid OPay within about 8 seconds. Two to three minutes is still quick by bank standards, but expect a short wait with 1xBet. In June 2026 the same route took about 4 minutes. We timed OPay only, so we don't quote a time for the bank options.

1xBet's security department can decline a withdrawal when your deposit hasn't been wagered in full in bets with odds of at least 1.1. We learned this the hard way: our first four requests on 8 November 2026 were all rejected, because our bets were at odds 1.02 and 1.05, which do not count towards the rule.

A worked example in ₦: we deposited ₦3,000, so ₦3,000 has to be staked at odds of 1.1 or higher before the money can come out. A ₦500 bet at odds 1.02 counts for nothing, and neither does a ₦3,015 bet at odds 1.05. Only after the deposit had been bet at qualifying odds was our fifth request approved and paid. The rejected requests cost no money — the funds stayed in the account — but each one wasted time.

On the OPay withdrawal form 1xBet shows a minimum of ₦550 and a maximum of ₦4,999,000. It charged no fee: we requested ₦3,641.18 and exactly ₦3,641.18 arrived in OPay. The withdrawal menu also listed AstroPay, PalmPay (greyed out on the day) and internet banking with Providus, Polaris, Kuda and ALAT by Wema.

The ₦550 minimum is higher than at SportyBet (₦1), Betway and BetKing (₦100), but lower than Bet9ja (₦1,000). The screen says transactions are confirmed via SMS, but no SMS code was asked for during our November withdrawal. Your own bank or wallet may charge separately.

The most common reason is the wagering rule: if your deposit hasn't been bet in full at odds of 1.1 or higher, the request goes to "Under review" and then "Rejected" — ours were rejected within about two minutes. Other causes are an amount below the ₦550 minimum or open bets that haven't settled yet.

If a request is rejected, check your bet history against the 1.1 rule, place qualifying bets, then request again — the money stays in your 1xBet balance in the meantime. Our tester was not asked for ID during this withdrawal, but 1xBet can still ask for verification, and a payout then waits until it's done.

1. Bet your whole deposit first, at odds of 1.1 or higher. 1xBet's security department rejects withdrawals when the deposit hasn't been wagered in full at those odds — bets at lower odds don't count.
2. Open the 1xBet menu and choose Withdraw funds.
3. Under E-wallets, pick OPay Wallet.
4. Enter the amount — the form shows "Min 550.00 NGN / Max 4 999 000.00 NGN" — and tap Confirm.
5. Wait for the status to move from "Under review" to "Approved" in your withdrawal requests (about 10 seconds in our test).
6. Check OPay: our ₦3,641.18 arrived from Beaufortbet Nigeria Limited 2 min 42 sec after we tapped Confirm.
