How to Make a Crypto Deposit for a Betting Exchange Account
The coin goes to your broker first. Here are the four stops, the coins each broker takes and the networks that change the confirmation count.
A crypto deposit for a betting exchange account goes to your broker, not to Orbit Exchange. In the broker's cashier you pick a coin and, where the broker names networks, a network; you send to the address it shows and wait for the broker to credit the wallet. From there you move the money to your Orbit tool. Bitcoin, USDT and USDC are the three coins all four brokers take. In our own use, crypto payments at all four brokers generally went through within an hour; our note does not say which way the money moved.
Four stops between the wallet and the exchange
The address is in your clipboard. The menu offers more than one network for the same coin, and only one of them leads to your broker's wallet. Right coin. Wrong network. A crypto transaction cannot be recalled once it is sent.
The order is short. The coin passes four stops, always in this order. The sign-up steps cover the account; this page starts when the account is open and a coin is in your hand.
The broker's cashier
Pick the coin, pick the network where the broker lists one, and copy the address it shows. AsianConnect and BetInAsia call the page Deposit, MadMarket keeps it in the Wallet, and Sportmarket calls it Deposit too. The address belongs to the network you picked, so the two have to match.
The confirmations
After you send, the broker waits until the network has confirmed the transaction, then credits the wallet. A confirmation is the network recording your transaction in a block; each block added after that counts as one more. AsianConnect gives a count that changes with the coin and the network, MadMarket states a time (crypto deposits are acknowledged within an hour of being initiated) and Sportmarket gives a count; the Confirmations or wait row below has every figure.
The wallet balance
The deposit lands in the broker's wallet; the currency depends on the broker. AsianConnect keeps its account in euros only. BetInAsia lets you choose euro, pound or dollar at sign-up. MadMarket's product accounts are in euros and the crypto is converted at the transfer. Sportmarket converts a crypto deposit to euros at the time of the transaction.
The Orbit tool
From the wallet you move the money to the tool that opens the exchange: OrbitX at AsianConnect (its login arrives once the deposit is received), Sharp Exchange at BetInAsia and MadMarket, FairExchange at Sportmarket (requested from a verified account). Once the coin is credited, a transfer between products is free and instant at AsianConnect and MadMarket. How the account turns a deposit into a product balance has the mechanism.
The deposit page is the broker's. Orbit's lack-of-funds text hands you back to your agent: "Please contact your agent." The other Orbit messages of that kind are on the limits page. Once the money is in the tool, how an exchange matches bets picks up the story.
Picture a bettor who holds USDT and wants the Orbit tool funded before Saturday's card. Nothing about the stake is hard yet. The job is the order: the cashier, the network, the confirmations, the transfer. Get the order right on Thursday, and Friday is about the stake.
Coins and networks, broker by broker
A dash means this page carries no figure.
Right. Now the numbers. One fact per row, the same eight for each broker, so a USDT deposit and a Bitcoin deposit can be read off the same grid.
| What you check | AsianConnect | BetInAsia | MadMarket | Sportmarket |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coins taken | Bitcoin, USDT, USDC | Eleven: BTC, XRP, USDT, LTC, DAI, DOGE, USDC, ADA, SOL, ETH, TRX | Twelve: BTC, XRP, LTC, USDC, USDT, ETH, ADA, SOL, DAI, TRX, DOGE, BCH | Bitcoin, USDT, USDC |
| Networks named | USDT on TRC20 and ERC20 | - | - | USDT on TRC20 and ERC20; USDC on ERC20 |
| Confirmations or wait | Bitcoin 3 confirmations; USDT on TRC20 1; USDT on ERC20 10; USDC 12 | - | Acknowledged within an hour of being initiated | 3 confirmations |
| Smallest deposit | €10; USDC €20 | €50 | €50, the broker's minimum | - |
| Largest deposit listed | 50 BTC, 20,000 USDT, 200,000 USDC | - | - | - |
| Balance currency | Euro | Euro, pound or dollar, chosen at sign-up | Euro; crypto converted at the transfer | Euro; crypto converted at the deposit |
| Broker fee on the deposit | None, free of charge on its end | None, 0% on crypto | None, zero deposit fees | None on crypto |
| Identity check | Before a withdrawal | Past €2,000 of lifetime deposits, or at a withdrawal request | Past €2,000 of lifetime deposits, or at a withdrawal request | Before the crypto deposit opens, and always before a withdrawal |
Bitcoin, USDT and USDC are on all four lists
A USDT deposit works at AsianConnect, BetInAsia, MadMarket and Sportmarket, and so does a Bitcoin or USDC deposit. The other eight coins are on the BetInAsia and MadMarket lists: XRP, LTC, DAI, DOGE, ADA, SOL, ETH and TRX. MadMarket's list adds BCH. AsianConnect and Sportmarket list the three shared coins.
The network is where the grid gets uneven
A network is the chain a coin travels on, and one coin can use more than one. AsianConnect names two for USDT, TRC20 and ERC20, and credits the first after 1 confirmation and the second after 10. Same coin, ten times the count (the band above draws it as ten small gates). Sportmarket names TRC20 and ERC20 for USDT and ERC20 for USDC, and waits for 3 confirmations.
Cards, e-wallets and bank transfer sit in the full table of methods. If the question is which broker opens the places you want, not which one takes your coin, the route tool starts from the places.
Check the network before you copy an address
Where the broker names a network for a coin, match the network in your sending menu to it, not just the coin name (yes, TRC20 and ERC20 look alike at a glance).
Which list your coin is on
This is about where a coin is accepted, not about which coin to hold.
A coin all four take
Bitcoin, USDT and USDC. Best for: a bettor who has not chosen a broker yet; the same coin is taken at AsianConnect, BetInAsia, MadMarket and Sportmarket, so the broker stays the open question. Not ideal if: you hold something outside the three; the next card is yours.
A coin on the BetInAsia and MadMarket lists
XRP, LTC, DAI, DOGE, ADA, SOL, ETH and TRX, with BCH on MadMarket's list. Best for: a bettor who already holds one of them and picks BetInAsia or MadMarket, whose lists name it. Not ideal if: you want one coin that works at all four; the broader lists are BetInAsia's and MadMarket's.
A coin on a named network
USDT at AsianConnect and Sportmarket, USDC at Sportmarket. The broker lists the network, and at AsianConnect the network changes the count for the same coin. Best for: a bettor who wants the network and the count settled before sending. Not ideal if: you want a time in minutes; AsianConnect and Sportmarket give confirmation counts, and a count is not a duration.
Does crypto skip the identity check?
The awkward one next. No. Crypto changes how you pay, not whether the broker checks who you are. Different rail. The check stays.
AsianConnect has every account fully verified before it processes a withdrawal, and names security and fraud prevention among its reasons. BetInAsia asks for the full check once lifetime deposits pass €2,000, or at a withdrawal request. MadMarket sets the same two triggers. Sportmarket opens crypto deposits only after the account is fully verified, and it asks before any withdrawal too.
At all four brokers, our own check meant sending an ID document and proof of address. What the identity check asks for goes document by document, and a straight read of the exchange's own text covers what to read before the first deposit.
What it costs, and where the rest lives
- Broker fee on a crypto deposit
- None at all four
- Coins all four take
- Bitcoin, USDT, USDC
- Crypto payments, our own use
- Generally within an hour
The network fee is separate: the sender pays it, and it is not the broker's.
Taking crypto out is a different bill. The fees, times and minimums differ by broker and are set out in what moving the money costs, and the broker overview shows the account around the cashier. Still choosing? The four brokers side by side is the place to start, and the routes into the exchange show the doors before the cashier.
Reality check
Once a crypto transaction is sent, it stays sent, so read the address and the network every time, not only the first time. How the money arrived says nothing about how the bets go. Keep the stake to money you can lose, and decide your limits before the first deposit; the responsible gambling page is there for that.
