Best eSewa Casinos in Nepal
| Casino | eSewa | Khalti | IME Pay | Deposit min / max | Withdrawal min / max | Cashier type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Melbet | Yes: eSewa and eSewa Fast | No | No | 500 / 25,000 NPR (eSewa), 1,500 / 25,000 NPR (eSewa Fast) | eSewa and eSewa Fast listed for withdrawals | eSewa: manual transfer to a personal account; eSewa Fast: asks for your eSewa account number and e-mail |
| Mostbet | Yes, via a Telegram bot | Yes, via a Telegram bot | No (footer logo only) | 5 / 135,000 NPR (MBC Paybot); crypto from 1.03 ADA | Not shown (no SMS code) | MBC Paybot opens a Telegram bot that gives you a private person's eSewa and Khalti number: agent-style transfer, not a wallet link |
| Khalti88 | Listed as a linked account | Not seen | No | Shown after linking | Up to 25,000 NPR per 24 h (terms); 3,000,000 on the form | Cashier after you link a personal account (Nepali bank or eSewa); no Khalti option |
| Baji | Yes: eSewa ("Esewa_Auto") | Yes: Khalti ("Khalti_Auto") | Yes: IMEpay, PrabhuPay | 500 / 200,000 NPR (each wallet) | EUR 10 equivalent / EUR 10,000 a month (terms) | Wallet channels labelled "Auto", but the cashier warns that its wallet details change and money sent to an old wallet may be lost: agent-style flow |
| Crickex | Yes | Yes | Yes | 200 / 25,000 NPR (each wallet and Fonepay) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Four wallet channels in one cashier; we did not go past Submit |
In our check 5 of the 10 casinos we review showed eSewa in the NPR cashier (Melbet, Baji and Crickex directly, Khalti88 as a linked account, Mostbet through a bot's personal number) and 3 showed Khalti (Baji, Crickex and Mostbet through the bot). Magar33 and Esewa12 are not counted: their cashiers stayed closed because the SMS code never arrived. Casinos where neither wallet appeared are not on this list; they are covered in the top 10 online casinos in Nepal ranking.
How to Deposit With eSewa
The exact screens differ from one eSewa casino to another. This is the flow we saw at Melbet on 11 November 2026, where eSewa is a manual transfer, not a payment page.
Step 1: Open the Cashier
Log in, tap Deposit and pick eSewa from the list of methods for NPR. If you don't see eSewa, check that your account currency is NPR; it usually cannot be changed after registration.
Step 2: Enter the Amount
Type the amount in NPR. The minimum was 500 NPR and the maximum 25,000 NPR per payment. If you want a welcome bonus, check that the amount meets the bonus minimum and that eSewa deposits qualify; see our promo codes.
Step 3: Confirm the Payment
The form shows a personal eSewa account, with a name and number, and a QR code, and gives you 10 minutes to send the money from your own eSewa app. Then you enter your eSewa account number and name, upload a payment screenshot and the transaction ID (7 to 9 or 11 characters) and press Confirm. A "change payment details" link is there if the account shown does not work. The page warns that money sent by any other method will not be credited, and asks you not to mention betting in the payment comment. Send money only from your own eSewa app and never give your MPIN to anyone in a chat.
Step 4: Check the Balance
We went through the flow up to the confirmation screen and made no payment, so we can't say how fast the balance updates. If it doesn't appear, keep the eSewa transaction ID and send it to the casino's live chat.
eSewa Game Sites That Aren't Casinos
People who search for "esewa game" are often looking for something else: games and apps that let you top up or pay with eSewa, such as mobile game credits, or an "esewa earning app" that promises cash rewards in eSewa. An eSewa online game top-up for PUBG Mobile or Free Fire is not gambling. Apps that ask you to deposit and promise you'll "earn" more back are, and many are scams.
Khalti Casino: How Deposits Work
Khalti deposits follow the same pattern. The Khalti merger with IME Pay means some cashiers show them together; others list them separately.
Step 1: Choose Khalti in the Cashier
In the deposit methods for NPR, select Khalti. In our check it appeared at Baji (500 – 200,000 NPR), Crickex (200 – 25,000 NPR) and, through a personal number from a Telegram bot, Mostbet.
Step 2: Enter the Amount
Khalti was in neither Melbet's NPR deposit list nor its withdrawal list on 11 November 2026, although Khalti logos appear in the site footer. Baji and Crickex list it directly; Mostbet gives a personal number through a bot.
Step 3: Confirm in Khalti
Follow the steps the cashier shows and pay from your own Khalti app. Again, the PIN goes into Khalti only.
Khalti Game Searches
"Khalti game" searches have the same mix as eSewa: game top-ups paid with Khalti, social games, and casino sites. Khalti88 is a casino brand that uses the wallet's name; it is not a Khalti game or a Khalti service. See below.
Withdrawals to eSewa and Khalti
Withdrawals are where one eSewa casino differs most from another. At several sites the cashier lists eSewa for deposits but not for withdrawals, which then go only by bank transfer.
| Casino | Withdraw to eSewa | Withdraw to Khalti | Bank | Min withdrawal | Documents before first payout |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Melbet | Yes: eSewa and eSewa Fast | No | ConnectIPS is listed | Not shown in the list | National ID card details in the profile; the bonus terms add a photo with your ID or a phone check on request |
| Mostbet | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Withdrawal locked until the profile is complete and the phone verified |
| Khalti88 | Yes: eSewa can be chosen as the payout account | Not seen | Yes: linked Nepali bank | Not shown (terms: up to 25,000 NPR per 24 h; form: up to 3,000,000) | Six-digit withdrawal PIN; profile shows "Pending" status |
| Magar33 | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | SMS code needed at sign-up |
| Baji | Back to the method you deposited with (terms) | Back to the method you deposited with (terms) | Same rule: the original method | EUR 10 equivalent (terms) | Phone and date of birth must be verified before the withdrawal page opens; terms add photo ID, proof of address, selfie or a call on request |
| Babu88 | No (footer logo only) | No (footer logo only) | Yes: bank account, up to 200,000 NPR | 600 NPR | Mobile number OTP check (the profile shows "Verify OTP"); nothing else seen at sign-up |
| Crickex | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Not shown (no SMS code) | Phone number must be verified before a withdrawal request; the profile also lists full name, birthday and email to add |
We did not make real withdrawals, so we don't quote payout times. Mostbet, Crickex, Magar33 and Esewa12 need a phone check by SMS before the withdrawal page or the cashier opens. The codes never arrived, neither on a free nor on a paid number, so their withdrawal limits are marked "Not shown".
Before your first withdrawal:
- Complete verification. Most casinos ask for an ID document, and some for a selfie or proof of address.
- Withdraw to a wallet registered in your own name. Payouts to a third party's wallet are usually refused.
- Finish or cancel any bonus first; active wagering blocks withdrawals.
- Expect the casino to send the money back through the method you deposited with, where possible.

Agent Numbers: the Main Risk
At some casinos the "eSewa deposit" is not a payment page. You get a personal eSewa or Khalti number and are asked to send money there, then upload a screenshot. In our check this happened at Melbet (a form with a named personal account, a 10-minute window and a screenshot upload) and at Mostbet, where a Telegram bot hands out a personal eSewa or Khalti number. Baji's cashier warns that its wallet details change, and Babu88's payees are third parties, which points the same way. Melbet's cashier also carries a "become an agent" banner, so the receiving account appears to be an agent's.
This method has three problems:
- No link between your payment and your account. If the agent doesn't credit it, you have no transaction record with the casino.
- Fake agents. Scammers copy casino names on Facebook, TikTok and Telegram and post their own numbers.
- Your wallet account carries the risk. Wallets are regulated by Nepal Rastra Bank, which requires wallet companies to stop suspicious transactions once notified. Payments to numbers linked to gambling can lead to your wallet being restricted.
If a casino only takes payments through personal numbers, choose another method where one exists: Melbet also takes cards, MyPay, CellPay, ConnectIPS and crypto, though some of those carry their own risks. If you've already paid, keep the screenshots and transaction IDs.
Khalti88 and Esewa12 Are Not eSewa or Khalti
Two of the most searched casino names in Nepal borrow the names of the country's largest wallets. Khalti88 and Esewa12 are casino brands. They are not run by Khalti or by F1Soft, the company behind eSewa, and we found no partnership published by either wallet.
- A Khalti88 account is not a Khalti account, and the reverse.
- Khalti support cannot help with a Khalti88 payout.
- Pages that look like official eSewa or Khalti "casino" pages are fakes.
Our Khalti88 review and Esewa12 review cover what we could verify about each.
Other Payment Methods
| Method | Where we saw it | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| IME Pay | Baji, Crickex; not in Melbet's list | Now part of the Khalti group; some cashiers show it separately |
| MyPay, CellPay | Melbet | Other Nepali wallets in the e-wallet list |
| Bank transfer | 1xBet, 8mBets, Khalti88, Babu88, Baji, Crickex | Common for withdrawals; slower, sometimes with a higher minimum |
| ConnectIPS | Melbet | Bank-linked payment |
| Crypto (USDT and others) | Melbet: 45 coins; USDT from 1 to 5 USDT | Fast, but funding gambling through crypto or foreign exchange can break Nepal's foreign-exchange rules |
| Cards | Melbet: Visa, Mastercard | Nepali cards are often declined for gambling |

eSewa and Khalti Casino FAQ
What is an eSewa casino?
An online casino whose NPR cashier accepts the eSewa wallet for deposits, and sometimes for withdrawals. It is not run by eSewa.
Which online casino accepts eSewa in Nepal?
In our check Melbet, Baji and Crickex took eSewa directly, Khalti88 let us link an eSewa account and Mostbet gave a personal number through a bot. Melbet came first for its eSewa limits. For eSewa betting on sports the same cashiers apply, as all three run a sportsbook in the same account. 1xBet does not qualify: searching its cashier for eSewa or Khalti returned "Method not found".
Is there a Khalti casino?
There is no casino run by Khalti. "Khalti casino" means a casino that accepts Khalti; we found three such cashiers (Baji, Crickex and, through a bot, Mostbet). Khalti88 is a casino brand, not part of Khalti.
Can I withdraw casino winnings to eSewa?
At some casinos. In our check Melbet and Khalti88 listed eSewa for withdrawals, and Baji pays back to the method you deposited with; the others paid out by bank or crypto.
Is it safe to send money to an agent's eSewa number?
No. There is no link between that payment and your casino account, and fake agents are common. Use only a cashier page inside your account.
How long does a withdrawal to Khalti take?
We made no real withdrawals, so we can't give a time. Check the minimum and maximum in the cashier and finish verification first.
Can my eSewa or Khalti account be blocked for casino payments?
Wallets must act on suspicious transactions under Nepal Rastra Bank rules, and gambling is illegal in Nepal. Restrictions are possible, especially for payments to personal agent numbers.
