SUPPORT

Where to take a question

Email support@stake.com for a written answer, or use 24/7 live chat once you are logged in. Live chat is not available before sign-in, so a question that stops you signing in goes by email.

  • Email

    Write to support@stake.com with the market name, the fixture or the wallet detail that your question concerns.

  • Live chat

    Live chat runs 24 hours a day after sign-in. Keep your question to one clear issue and have the relevant market or wallet screen open.

  • Rules first

    For cricket questions, read the market rules. For wallet questions, read the wallet screen and the terms before writing.

CHECK

How these answers stay accurate

Answers stick to information Stake publishes, and they do not add promotions, bonus amounts or odds figures. Where the published information is silent, the answer says so rather than offering a guess dressed up as a fact.

  • No promotions

    This FAQ does not describe bonuses or promotional terms, because those change and are set by the operator.

  • No odds figures

    Odds on live cards change, so the arithmetic here is illustrative and carries no current price.

  • Dated information

    Terms, limits and wallet options change. Check the live pages before acting on any answer in this FAQ.

COMPARISON

Sportsbook and casino answers differ

A sportsbook question usually turns on the market rule, while a casino question turns on the game rules. The answers below keep those two apart, so a reader does not apply a rule from one product to the other.

  • Sportsbook questions

    Settlement, voids and abandoned matches are decided by the market's rule, so read that rule before the event starts.

  • Casino questions

    Casino rounds follow the game's rules and the return figure shown on its card, so check those for the game you play.

  • Account questions

    Age, limits and wallet rules apply to both products, so they are answered once in the shared sections of this guide.

Points the FAQ answers first
FEATURES

Points the FAQ answers first

Three subjects come up before all others: whether cricket is listed, how to read a price, and what the wallet requires before a withdrawal. The answers below cover those first, then the less common questions.

  • Cricket listing

    The sportsbook lists Tests, ODIs, T20 internationals and leagues including the Pakistan Super League. Which fixtures are open depends on the day.

  • Reading a price

    A decimal price multiplies the stake to give the total return, so a 2.50 price on 100 units returns 250 units, stake included.

  • Wallet before withdrawal

    Wagering of 100% of the deposit is required before a crypto or fiat withdrawal is requested.

FAQ

Stake betting FAQ questions and answers

The full list of common questions. Each answer is short, and the linked pages give the detail behind it.

Does Stake offer cricket betting?

Yes. The listing names Tests, ODIs, T20 internationals and leagues including the Pakistan Super League, plus simulated reality cricket.

How do I read odds on the Stake sportsbook?

Start with the total return. This guide does not say which layout the Stake sports odds use, but decimal, fractional and American layouts express the same return. A decimal price multiplies the stake, so 2.00 on 10 units returns 20 units including the stake. Check the layout before comparing selections.

Can I bet from my phone without an app?

Stake says it has no dedicated iOS or Android app. The site works as a progressive web app, so you can add it to your home screen from a mobile browser.

Is there a minimum deposit?

Stake sets the minimum at its discretion and shows the current figure in the wallet section, so check it there before you pay.

Do I have to wager before withdrawing?

Yes. The terms require 100% of the deposit to be wagered before a crypto or fiat withdrawal is requested.

Can I set a limit on my losses?

Yes. Loss limits and wager limits can be set daily, weekly or monthly. A reduction applies at once, and an increase takes 24 hours.

Who do I contact about an account problem?

Email support@stake.com, or use 24/7 live chat once you are logged in. Include the bet details when you write.

Who can open an account?

Players must be 18 or the age of majority where they live if that is higher. Pakistan is not named in the prohibited list, but each user must confirm that their use is lawful where they live.
