BSP-Licensed Crypto Exchanges

The BSP (Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas) licenses cryptocurrency exchanges in the Philippines. Using licensed exchanges is completely legal.

Exchange BSP License USDT Support PHP Cash-In Fees
Coins.ph ✅ Yes ✅ Yes GCash, Maya, Bank ~₱15-25 (TRC-20)
PDAX ✅ Yes ✅ Yes Bank Transfer Variable
Binance ❌ Not BSP-licensed ✅ Yes P2P Low but riskier
Why Coins.ph: Most beginner-friendly, accepts GCash/Maya directly, fully BSP-licensed. This guide uses Coins.ph. PDAX is good alternative for larger amounts.

Step-by-Step: PHP to 1xBet via Coins.ph

Step 1: Create Coins.ph Account

  1. Download Coins.ph app (Google Play / App Store)
  2. Register with email and Philippine mobile number
  3. Complete KYC verification:
    • Valid ID: Passport, Driver's License, National ID, UMID, Postal ID
    • Selfie verification
    • Processing: Usually same day (few hours)

Step 2: Add PHP to Coins.ph

  1. Open Coins.ph app → "Cash In"
  2. Choose method:
    • GCash: Instant, free
    • Maya: Instant, free
    • Bank Transfer: 1-24 hours, free
    • 7-Eleven/Cebuana: Cash option available
  3. Enter amount (minimum ₱100)
  4. Follow prompts to complete payment
  5. PHP appears in Coins.ph wallet

Step 3: Buy USDT

  1. In Coins.ph, go to "Convert" or "Trade"
  2. Select: PHP → USDT
  3. Enter amount to buy
  4. Review the rate (includes ~0.5-1% spread)
  5. Confirm purchase
  6. USDT appears in your crypto wallet
Why USDT: It's a stablecoin pegged to USD (~₱56-58). Your deposit value won't fluctuate like Bitcoin. Buy ₱1,000 of USDT → stays worth ~₱1,000.

Step 4: Get 1xBet Deposit Address

  1. Open 1xBet app or website
  2. Go to Deposit → Cryptocurrency
  3. Select "USDT (Tether)"
  4. CRITICAL: Choose TRC-20 network
  5. Copy the wallet address (long string starting with "T")
CRITICAL - Network Must Match: Both Coins.ph withdrawal AND 1xBet deposit must be TRC-20. Sending to wrong network = lost funds permanently. There is no recovery.

Step 5: Send USDT from Coins.ph to 1xBet

  1. In Coins.ph → go to USDT wallet
  2. Tap "Send" or "Withdraw"
  3. Paste the 1xBet address you copied
  4. Verify address starts with "T" (TRC-20 format)
  5. Select TRC-20 network
  6. Enter amount to send
  7. Review fees (~₱15-25)
  8. Confirm and complete any 2FA

Step 6: Wait for Confirmation

  • TRC-20 network: 1-5 minutes for confirmation
  • 1xBet processing: Usually instant after network confirms
  • Total time: 15-30 minutes typical
  • First time: May take slightly longer
Success! Once funds appear in 1xBet, you can start betting. The process becomes faster after your first deposit.

USDT Networks: TRC-20 vs ERC-20

USDT exists on multiple blockchain networks. Choosing the right one saves money.

Network Fee Speed Address Format Recommendation
TRC-20 (Tron) ~₱15-25 1-5 minutes Starts with "T" ✅ Best choice
ERC-20 (Ethereum) ~₱500-2,000+ 5-30 minutes Starts with "0x" ❌ Too expensive
BEP-20 (BSC) ~₱10-30 1-3 minutes Starts with "0x" ⚠️ Check if 1xBet supports

How to Identify Network

  • TRC-20: Address starts with T (e.g., TJYs...)
  • ERC-20/BEP-20: Address starts with 0x (e.g., 0x7a...)
Always verify: Before sending, confirm the address format matches the network you selected. TRC-20 address to ERC-20 network = lost funds.

Other Cryptocurrencies

While USDT is recommended, other cryptos work too:

Crypto Coins.ph 1xBet Notes
Bitcoin (BTC) ✅ ✅ Higher fees, price volatile
Ethereum (ETH) ✅ ✅ High gas fees, price volatile
XRP (Ripple) ✅ ✅ Very low fees, fast
Litecoin (LTC) ✅ ✅ Low fees, fast

Why USDT is Still Best

  • Stable value: 1 USDT ≈ 1 USD always
  • No price risk: BTC can drop 10% while you're betting
  • Low fees: TRC-20 USDT has lowest fees
  • Simple math: Easy to track PHP → USDT → winnings

Frequently Asked Questions

Is using crypto legal in the Philippines?

Yes. Cryptocurrency is legal and regulated by BSP. Coins.ph and PDAX are BSP-licensed. Using crypto for personal purposes is completely permitted.

How long does crypto deposit take?

15-30 minutes total. Network confirmation (1-5 min for TRC-20) + 1xBet processing (usually instant). First deposit may take slightly longer.

What if I send to wrong network?

Funds may be lost. Always verify network matches on both sending and receiving side. TRC-20 address starts with "T", ERC-20 with "0x". Contact support immediately if mistake made.

Why USDT instead of Bitcoin?

Stability. USDT is pegged to USD (~₱56-58). Bitcoin can drop 10% while you're betting. USDT ensures your deposit value stays consistent.

What's the minimum deposit?

~₱500-1,000 practical minimum. Coins.ph has minimum withdrawal amounts, and network fees make very small deposits inefficient. Depositing ₱1,000+ is most cost-effective.
