Is it possible to fund an account with Rupee at Stake.com India?
Stake.com is fast becoming one of the most popular places to bet online worldwide.

How to deposit money on Stake in India
Depositing money on Stake in India is now very straightforward. Stake supports deposits in Indian Rupee across several different leading payment methods, with a range of options supporting fiat deposits. It is also possible to deposit by cryptocurrency, with support for a number of leading cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, litecoin and ethereum.
Before you can deposit using INR, you need to enable the local currency option on your account dashboard. Login to your account and head to the Deposits page. Once you’re there, you can choose to deposit in either crypto or fiat currency - switching to fiat will allow you to deposit in INR through any of the supported payment methods.
Note that before you can withdraw, you will be required to provide proof of ID. You’ll need to take a photograph of your qualifying ID documents to send to Stake in order to verify your account for withdrawals.
Which payment methods are available at Stake India?
A deposit in INR can be made by either Netbanking or UPI. To use Netbanking, you need to have verified your identity by completing the Stake KYC requirements to level 2. This involves verifying your account and your identity with Stake, so be sure to have your documents to hand in order to complete this process before attempting to initiate your deposit.
For UPI, you need to enter the virtual payment address, as well as choose your bank from the list of supported banking institutions. This will start the process of a direct bank transfer to your Stake account. Stake has support for most major public and private sector banks in India, so you should have no issue in moving funds into your account.
There is a 15-minute timeframe from starting your deposit in which you must complete the process. Please allow up to 75 minutes for your INR funds to clear into your Stake.com account. Once the funds have cleared, you can begin using them to bet across a wide range of sporting events, or even on the casino side of the Stake.com site.
How to change currency in Stake
There are two options for payments in Stake - either cryptocurrency or fiat currency. When you choose the fiat currency option, your deposits will be made in Indian Rupees, or INR, for customers in India. To change the currency option, you need to login to your Stake account and head to the Deposit page.
Once you’re there, you’ll see a toggle switch where you can choose between cryptocurrency or fiat payments. If you choose crypto (the default), you can deposit from your cryptocurrency wallet straight into your Stake account - often with quicker turnaround times than would be the case with bank deposits.
If you choose to go the fiat currency route, toggle to fiat and select INR from the dropdown menu presented. This will allow you to send funds in Rupees to your account. In the event you want to deposit funds in a different currency, feel free to choose a different currency from this dropdown window - where supported, this will allow you to add funds from any currency balance you hold.
The whole process of depositing in fiat can take up to 75 minutes for customers in India, so please make sure to leave enough time before the start of the events you want to bet on for funds to clear into your Stake account.
Can I use Stake in India?
Stake is one of the world’s leading online betting platforms, accepting customers from a wide range of countries internationally. Gamblers in India are now able to use Stake.com for sports betting and casino gambling, simply by creating an account, uploading funds and verifying their identity documents.

Can I withdraw from Stake.com in Indian Rupees?
Withdrawals are also possible in INR from your Stake account. Once you have completed KYC verification level 2, you can request withdrawals that meet the requirements, for sending directly to your bank account.
You must use the same withdrawal method as you’ve used to deposit, part of the ‘closed loop’ payments system operated by Stake. Simply choose the type of withdrawal you want to make and input the information requested at the time to commence your withdrawal. You will require your bank’s Indian Financial System Codes (IFSC) to verify the withdrawal.
Withdrawals can take up to 3 days to show up in your bank account, so make sure you leave plenty of time to receive the money you’ve requested to withdraw from your Stake.com account.
Moving money to and from your Stake.com account in India is very straightforward. While it can take some time to deposit funds, and a little longer to withdraw to your bank account, it’s an easy enough process - especially once you’ve completed the KYC verification processes that verify your account and your personal identity. Once you’ve got the hang of depositing and withdrawing from Stake, the platform opens up as one of the best places to bet on sports in India.
