Planbet Global Review - Bonus, Payments, & Availability by Country

Planbet launched in 2024 and runs on the 1xBet software, which means the platform, sportsbook engine, casino/ live casino titles, and menus will look instantly familiar to anyone who’s used a 1x bookie before. It’s licensed in Curaçao with a secondary RCI (Ireland) permit, which gives a lot more credibility than many betting sites which operate with an Anjouan license, or simply no license at all.

Because it’s a 1x brand, the total product offer is huge by default: full sportsbook, casino, live casino, horse racing, harness and greyhounds, poker, and bingo. Nothing missing on the vertical side.

For a deeper breakdown of what the 1x platform does well and where it falls short, see our BetJam Bangladesh review. Almost everything there applies to Planbet too. Where 1x brands differ from each other is mainly on the odds feed, promo mix, and how well they localise for each market.

Localisation Is Where Planbet Actually Stands Out

This is the real reason to pay attention to this bookie over other 1x operations. They’ve put proper work into supporting players from across the globe, and do a particularly good job across Asia. For example, players in Bangladesh have access to deposits and withdrawals via bKash and Nagad, the Sri Lanka site supports Upay and iPay, and Planbet is one of the best betting sites in Pakistan thanks to integration of Easypaisa and Jazzcash. Local currencies are supported as well including PKR, BDT, LKR, INR, EUR, USD, CAD, meaning that most players will be able to skip the transaction fees you see at a lot of the main stream bookies only targeting western countries.

Planbet’s Sportsbook Has The Classic 1x Strengths and Weaknesses

Because it’s a 1x brand, the market menu is enormous. Cricket, tennis, and football coverage is deep across international and Asian leagues, with plenty of props and outrights on top of the standard 1×2 markets. Volleyball, eSports, and the North American majors are all there too, along with the usual 1x novelty markets (politics, TV, and the occasional ‘special bet’ which can basically cover anything happening in the world).

Same-Game Combo Bettors Beware

Same story as Ultrapari, Melbet, Megapari, and every other brand running the 1x software. There’s no proper bet builder, so you can’t combine markets from the same match into one bet. Preset combos exist for popular events (for example Pakistan to win + over 39.5 total wickets), but if the combo you want isn’t pre-built, you’re out of luck.

Do We Recommend Planbet?

For players in Asia, yes. The localised payments, languages, and native currency support are the main selling points, and the 1x platform behind them offers one of the deepest betting engines in the world. Odds are decent rather than sharp, and the missing bet builder is annoying if you like same-game combos, but for cricket and football outrights or live betting, this book is hard to beat.
