Payments and transactions
Deposits via local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, or local payment are fast and straightforward. After logging into api228, go to "Deposit" or "Cashier" in the main menu. Select your preferred e-wallet. You will be shown the deposit amount you wish to transfer. Tap "Proceed" and you will be redirected to that e-wallet's app (or login page in your browser). Confirm the payment using your e-wallet PIN or biometric authentication. The funds return to api228 within seconds to a few minutes. Your account balance updates automatically. Note that online payment (Scan and Pay) is also available: select e-wallet at checkout, scan the QR code with your e-wallet app, and confirm. E-wallet deposits from mobile banking, local payment, online payment work the same way across Android (app) and iOS (browser). There are no deposit fees. Minimum and maximum amounts may apply depending on your e-wallet and the time of day (e.g., higher limits during normal business hours in Jakarta, Surabaya, and Bandung).
Yes. We support bank transfers via virtual accounts for e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and online payment. To deposit using a bank account, go to "Deposit" and select "Bank Transfer" or "Virtual Account". Choose your bank from the list. We generate a unique virtual account number (VA) for you. Transfer the amount from your personal bank account using online banking or ATM. Your api228 account is credited automatically once the bank confirms the transfer, typically within one to four business hours (sometimes faster during business hours). Virtual account numbers are unique to your api228 account and remain active, so you can use the same VA for future deposits without requesting a new one. There are no transfer fees on our end, but your bank may charge a small fee. Minimum and maximum transfer amounts depend on your bank. Unlike e-wallets, bank transfers are not instant, so plan ahead if you need funds urgently—e-wallet options like e-wallet, mobile banking, or local payment are faster.
Withdrawal timelines depend on your chosen payment method. E-wallet withdrawals (online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment) are processed within minutes—funds land in your e-wallet balance almost immediately. Bank withdrawals (e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment) take longer because they flow through the banking system: typically one to three business hours during weekday business hours, or up to one business day if you request withdrawal outside business hours or on a public holiday (such as Idul Fitri or Idul Adha). Your withdrawal request is processed in order; we do not prioritise larger or smaller amounts. All withdrawals are subject to account verification (KYC must be complete before you can withdraw). If a withdrawal does not arrive within the expected timeframe, contact our support team with your withdrawal reference number; we can investigate the status with your bank or e-wallet provider.
Games and markets
RTP stands for "Return to Player" and expresses what percentage of all wagered money a slot game returns to players over a long period. For example, a slot with theoretically returns 96 pounds for every 100 pounds wagered across millions of spins. RTP is a statistical average calculated over the game's lifetime, not a guarantee for each session. Individual sessions are unpredictable due to the random number generator (RNG) that powers every spin. Games like Aviator, Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, Fortune Tiger, and Mahjong Ways each have their own published RTP (typically between non-specific info and non-specific info). Higher RTP does not mean you win more in the short term; it simply reflects a lower house edge over time. You can usually find a game's RTP in the paytable or game rules section within api228. RTP information helps you understand game mechanics, but all slot games carry a house edge—outcomes are never guaranteed.
Free bets and free spins are promotional offers that allow you to wager or spin without using your own balance. Free spins are typically awarded on specific slot games (for example, a promotion might give five free spins on Sweet Bonanza). Free bets are credit you can use on any eligible market (such as football betting on Liga 1 or Piala Indonesia matches). Both are subject to terms: free spins usually expire within 7 days, and free bets may have a playthrough requirement (you must wager the amount a certain number of times before you can withdraw winnings). Where do they appear? Check the "Promotions" or "Offers" section in your api228 account—any active offers are listed there with expiry dates and terms. Some free bets or spins are awarded when you complete KYC verification or deposit for the first time. Others are seasonal (for example, during Idul Fitri or Nyepi). Always read the terms before using a free offer to understand any restrictions or playthrough conditions.
We cover major football leagues and tournaments, including Liga 1 (Indonesian domestic league), Piala Indonesia (national cup), Piala AFF (Southeast Asian championship), Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, and World Cup qualifying matches. Coverage varies by season and match availability. Our sportsbook displays upcoming matches alongside betting markets such as Match Winner, Total Goals, Both Teams to Score, and Asian Handicap. Live markets are available for matches in progress. Game rules for each market are displayed in the market description—for example, Match Winner shows what happens if a match goes to extra time or penalties. You can view upcoming fixtures in the Football section of api228, filtered by league or date. Our odds update in real time during live matches. Note that we do not offer odds on all matches, and market availability depends on regulatory and operational factors. Check the Football section regularly to see the full schedule of available matches.
Security and account care
We protect your data using industry-standard security practices. All communications between your device and api228 servers use SSL/TLS encryption. Stored data (your email, phone number, ID information, and transaction records) is encrypted at rest. Access to your data is restricted to authorised api228 staff and contractors who have signed confidentiality agreements. We do not sell your data to third parties. We share data with payment processors (e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking partners) only as necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. We also share ID information with identity-verification vendors (licensed by Indonesian authorities) to complete KYC checks. For additional security, we recommend enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) on your api228 account—you can use SMS or an authenticator app. Never share your password or 2FA codes with anyone, including api228 staff. Our standard security practices practices are detailed in our privacy policy
