Head-to-head

1xBet vs Parimatch

1xBet and Parimatch operate in the same verticals (casino, sportsbook), so most of what follows is a like-for-like comparison.

Everything below is taken from each operator's published record — licence registers, banking pages, bonus terms and responsible-gambling pages. We do not open accounts or play, so nothing here is a claim about hands-on experience.

Links to operators on this page are affiliate links: we earn a commission if you sign up through one, at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing about the facts shown here. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

Licensing — and the numbers to check it with

Each licence below is the one the operator publishes, with the authority that issued it and the number where there is one.

1xBet

Curaçao Gaming Authority

Licence number:
OGL/2024/1262/0493
Jurisdiction:
Curaçao

Parimatch

Curacao eGaming

Licence number:
8048/JAZ2012-009
Jurisdiction:
Curaçao

Cyprus National Betting Authority Strict regime

Licence number:
LIC/0182

Parimatch answers to at least one of the stricter regulators — the regimes that require segregated player funds and binding dispute resolution — while 1xBet's licensing is lighter-touch.

Welcome bonus terms

The headline amount is marketing. These are the terms that decide what it is actually worth.

Published payout window

The fastest withdrawal window each operator publishes on its own banking page. It is a stated window, not a payout we have timed: we do not open accounts, so we make no claim about withdrawal speed in practice.

What stands out on each

1xBet

Pros

  • The licence is verifiable at source: the Curaçao Gaming Authority's certificate portal lists licence OGL/2024/1262/0493, licensee Caecus N.V. (company 163779), status Active
  • The widest product range in this comparison: sports, live betting, slots, live casino, esports, poker, bingo, Toto, TV games and virtual sports under one account
  • Country-specific sites for eleven markets, each with local payment rails and language
  • Operating since 2007 by the company's own account — a long history at this licence tier

Cons

  • A Curaçao licence offers thinner player protection and thinner recourse than a UK or Malta permit
  • Terms, bonuses and banking are set per country site rather than globally, so no single set of conditions applies to everybody
  • The operator publishes its rules pages client-side, so its restricted-country list, age minimum and protection tools could not be read from here at all
  • Terms, bonuses and banking are set per country site, so nothing here is a single global figure

Parimatch

Pros

  • Holds a national Cyprus National Betting Authority licence as well as Curacao
  • Long-running brand established in 1994
  • Accepts Bitcoin, Tether and UPI alongside cards and e-wallets
  • Covers both casino and sportsbook
  • Supports seven currencies including INR, UAH, KZT and TRY

Cons

  • Outside Cyprus, players rely on the lighter Curacao licence
  • Welcome bonus carries a x30 wagering requirement
  • Bonus winnings are capped at a $3,000 maximum cashout
  • Not available in the US, UK, Germany or Australia
