showdown Bet — Start Betting the right way, understanding every market
At showdown Bet, finding markets across every sport from cricket to football is straightforward. Learn to read odds, understand the bet slip, and play responsibly.
Log in and fund your account
The first step to betting at showdown Bet is to go to the showdown Login page and log in. Sign in with your username and password to open your account dashboard. If you are new, the registration process takes only a few minutes.
After logging in, go to the deposit section. At showdown, you can deposit using bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and bank transfer (such as Dutch-Bangla Bank or BRAC Bank). The minimum deposit amount is just ৳200. Your account balance updates immediately after a deposit, and you can place bets right away.
If you want to play on mobile, you can download the showdown App — both Android and iOS versions are available through official channels.
Find markets and understand odds
After logging in, go to the sports section to see a list of different sports. Each match shows odds alongside it — this number tells you how much you will get back if your bet wins.
At showdown Bet, odds are generally shown in decimal format. Say Team A's odds are 2.25 — that means if you bet ৳1,000 and win, your total return is ৳2,250 (that is, ৳1,250 profit plus your original ৳1,000 stake back). The same odds in fractional format are written as 5/4 and in American format as +125.
When a team is considered the "favourite", its odds are lower. For example — Team B's odds are 1.50 (fractional: 1/2; American: -200). A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,500 (profit of only ৳500), because this outcome is considered more likely.
Three odds formats — at a glance
| Format | Team A | Team B |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.50 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/2 |
| American | +125 | -200 |
Bet Slip — Single and Multi Bets
Clicking on any market adds it directly to the bet slip. The bet slip is your betting basket — enter the stake amount and the potential return is calculated automatically.
Single Bet: A bet on one outcome. In a cricket match, Team A's odds are 1.65 and Team B's odds are 2.30 — there is no draw in this limited-overs match. If you bet ৳500 on Team B and Team B wins, your return is ৳1,150 (৳650 profit); if Team A wins, you lose the full ৳500.
Multi Bet (multiple selections combined): Adding the results of several matches to the same slip creates a multi bet. A payout is made only if all selections win. If three selections have odds of 1.50, 1.70, and 1.80, the combined odds = 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.59 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳459 — but if any one selection loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
The example below shows what a single bet slip looks like:
Multi bets offer a higher potential return, but the risk is also higher — all outcomes must be correct.
Betting on Sports and Casino Games
Cricket is the most popular sport in the showdown Bet sports section. Matches in BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup and Bangladesh Tigers fixtures offer a range of markets — match winner, toss, top batter, and more. For details, see the cricket betting page — it has a full discussion of cricket markets and strategy.
showdown also keeps live markets open for football. Both pre-match and in-play bets can be placed.
Casino games also involve betting — you can stake on every round of roulette, baccarat, and live table games. Go to the showdown casino page to find the full list of live casino options and slots.
Bets in both the sports and casino sections are placed from the same account balance. During live matches, in-play odds change quickly — check the odds carefully before confirming a bet.
Open and settled bets — check your history
After placing each bet at showdown Bet, it is added to the Open Bets list. Once the match or event ends, the bet automatically moves to the Settled Bets section and you can see the win or loss result.
In the "Bet History" section of your account, you can search for bets by date. Each entry shows the selection, market, stake placed, odds, and final result. Reviewing your betting history this way helps you understand which types of bets suit you best.
To withdraw, go directly to the withdrawal section from your balance and submit a request via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or bank transfer. The minimum withdrawal amount is ৳800 and funds generally arrive within 5 to 30 minutes.
