Why Is My Deposit Delayed on 888bets?

Usually, deposits on 888bets Malawi are instant — especially with Mobile Money and PayChangu. But sometimes, you may experience a short delay. Here's why that happens and what to do.

🛠 Common Reasons for Delay:

  1. Network issues with your mobile provider (Airtel or TNM)

  2. USSD timeout before you approve the payment

  3. Wrong phone number or account mismatch

  4. Delayed approval of the Mobile Money PIN

  5. High traffic during peak hours

  6. Bank processing issues (for PayChangu transfers)


✅ What to Do:

  • Refresh your account page after 2–5 minutes

  • Check your Mobile Money wallet or bank to confirm if funds were deducted

  • Do not deposit again immediately — wait and confirm first

  • If the money was taken but hasn’t arrived:

    • Contact Customer Support

    • Provide:

      • Phone number

      • Amount sent

      • Transaction reference code

      • Time of transaction


💡 Tip:

Use strong signal and avoid closing your phone or app while the payment is processing.
