Cons

  • Trustpilot 1.1/5 — severe withdrawal complaints, especially from Indian users

  • Football margins 7-8% — significantly above market average (Pinnacle: 2-3%)
  • Android: APK only (not on Play Store). iOS: PWA only (not on App Store)
  • Customer support described as 'system-generated responses' for payment issues

Our Verdict

Dafabet's cricket coverage is genuinely best-in-class for APAC — 50+ IPL categories, ball-by-ball live betting, and direct INR/VND accounts. The dual-sportsbook model lets you compare odds internally. However, the 1.1/5 Trustpilot score is a serious red flag that we can't ignore — withdrawal issues are widespread and well-documented. Football margins at 7-8% are poor compared to Pinnacle's 2-3%. The India block since February 2023 adds legal and practical risk. Our recommendation: use Dafabet specifically for cricket betting where their market depth is unmatched, but keep a Pinnacle account for everything else.

Dominant complaints: withdrawals marked 'successful' but funds never arrive, KYC resubmission loops, deposits debited but shown as 'cancelled'. Multiple reports of INR 1-2.5 lakh stuck for 6+ months.
