About 9ab
9ab is an online betting and casino platform designed from the ground up with Pakistan in mind. Cricket coverage, PKR payments, mobile-first design and a games library that keeps growing — that's the short version.
At a Glance
Who We Are
9ab started from a straightforward observation: Pakistani players who enjoyed online betting and casino gaming were poorly served by most of the platforms available to them. The major international sites weren't built with Pakistan as a primary market — PKR wasn't a native currency, JazzCash and Easypaisa weren't integrated payment options, and cricket coverage was an afterthought compared to European football and tennis.
So instead of adapting something that wasn't designed for this market, 9ab was built specifically for it. That decision shows up in every part of how the platform works. The cashier runs natively in PKR. JazzCash, Easypaisa and Raast are core payment channels, not add-ons. Pakistan Super League fixtures, T20 internationals and bilateral cricket series get front-page treatment because that's what our players are actually following and betting on.
The team behind 9ab combines experience in online gaming technology, sports betting markets and Pakistan's digital payments landscape. We built the platform knowing that most of our players access the internet through their phones on 4G networks — not through fibre on a desktop. Every product decision reflects that reality. The apps load fast, the games run smoothly on mid-range Android devices, and the entire deposit-to-play flow takes under two minutes.
9ab is an entertainment platform. We're honest about what we are: a place where adults can enjoy sports betting, casino games and slots in a well-built, fair environment. We don't make promises we can't keep, we don't claim guaranteed wins, and we provide the tools for players to manage their activity responsibly.
The core sportsbook and casino launched with PKR as the native currency and JazzCash as the primary payment channel — designed specifically for the Pakistani market from day one.
Full in-play betting coverage for Pakistan Super League fixtures introduced, with ball-by-ball live odds updates during T20 and Test matches. Pakistani cricket moved to the front of the sportsbook.
Partnerships with Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, PG Soft and Play'n GO expanded the slots section significantly. Jackpot slots and Megaways titles added alongside classic three-reel games.
Dedicated apps for both Android and iOS launched, adding push notifications, biometric login and faster game loading for Pakistan's predominantly mobile user base.
Full Raast interbank transfer support and expanded Easypaisa integration added, giving players more flexibility in how they move PKR in and out of their accounts.
HD live dealer games including Live Roulette, Live Baccarat and Live Blackjack added, with streams optimised for 4G connections common across Pakistan.
What We Offer
These aren't marketing bullet points — they're the actual reasons Pakistani players keep coming back to 9ab.
Pakistan cricket is the heartbeat of our sportsbook. PSL, bilateral Test and T20 series, ICC events and domestic leagues — all covered with pre-match and live in-play odds. Ball-by-ball live markets update in real time so you can react to what's actually happening on the pitch, not what happened two overs ago.
Every number on 9ab — your balance, your stake, your winnings, your withdrawal — is in PKR. There's no awkward conversion from USD or EUR. JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, bank transfer and cards are all supported, so you can top up using whatever's already on your phone and withdraw the same way.
The 9ab games library covers classic slots, Megaways, progressive jackpots, video poker, Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat. Studios like Pragmatic Play, NetEnt and PG Soft supply the titles — these are the same games played across major platforms globally, with certified RNG fairness and RTPs published per game.
HD-streamed live dealer tables bring the feel of a real casino to your phone or laptop. Live Roulette, Baccarat, Blackjack and game shows run around the clock. Streams are adapted for 4G connections — you get smooth video without the game stalling when your signal dips.
9ab was built for mobile users first. The Android and iOS apps give you push notifications, biometric login and faster load times. The mobile browser version is equally capable — no plugins, no downloads needed to play any game. Everything works on mid-range Android phones because that's what most Pakistani players are using.
Game outcomes on 9ab use certified RNG systems that cannot be influenced by the platform. For players who want to manage their activity, we provide deposit limits, session reminders and a self-exclusion option. These tools are accessible directly from your account without having to contact support.
Our Values
A platform is only as good as the decisions that go into building it. These are the principles we apply when deciding what to build, what to fix and what to leave alone.
We don't promise things that can't be delivered. There are no guaranteed wins in betting or casino games — the house edge is real, variance is real, and any platform that tells you otherwise isn't being straight with you. 9ab publishes RTP figures for casino games and explains how odds work in the sportsbook so players can make informed decisions.
Short-term thinking says you squeeze every rupee from your users. We think that's backwards. When players have a good experience — fair games, fast payouts, responsive support — they come back. Our product decisions are made with that in mind, which is why we invest in responsible gaming tools even though they reduce play time for some users.
The difference between a platform built for a market and one adapted for it shows up immediately. 9ab wasn't an international platform that added PKR as an afterthought — it was designed with Pakistani payment infrastructure, Pakistani sports preferences and Pakistani mobile usage patterns from the beginning.
The platform today is better than it was at launch, and we expect the same to be true a year from now. New games are added weekly, payment options are expanded when better ones become available, and technical issues get fixed quickly. If something isn't working well, we fix it — that's the standard we hold ourselves to.
Payments
Getting money in and out of your account should be easy and fast. We've focused on the payment channels that Pakistani players actually use, rather than building a long list of obscure options that most people will never touch.
JazzCash and Easypaisa deposits are handled directly within the 9ab cashier — you don't need to switch between apps to confirm a transaction. The flow is straightforward: select your amount, confirm in your payment app, and the balance appears in your 9ab account. Raast makes bank-to-bank transfers cleaner and faster than traditional interbank options. Standard bank transfer and debit/credit cards are there for players who prefer them.
Withdrawals process through the same channels. Once your account KYC is complete — a one-time ID verification — withdrawals are processed within our standard timeframe. There are no currency conversion fees because everything is PKR throughout.
Identity verification is required before your first withdrawal — it's a one-time process. You'll be asked to upload a valid ID document. Once approved, withdrawals proceed without further verification steps. We take this seriously because it protects your account from unauthorised access as much as it meets our compliance obligations.

Responsible Gaming
9ab is an entertainment platform for adults. We're clear about that because it matters. Sports betting and casino gaming are forms of entertainment that carry financial risk — there are no guaranteed outcomes, and the platform has a mathematical edge on casino products over the long term. Players who understand this and set clear limits on their time and spending tend to have a better, more sustainable experience.
We make the following tools available to all 9ab account holders, accessible from account settings without needing to contact support: deposit limits (daily, weekly or monthly), session time reminders, and a self-exclusion option for players who feel they need a break. The self-exclusion can be temporary or indefinite.
9ab is strictly for players aged 18 and above. We do not market to minors and do not accept registrations from anyone under 18. If you share a device with younger family members, we strongly recommend securing the 9ab app with a PIN or biometric login.
If gaming starts feeling less like entertainment and more like something you can't control — you're betting to recover losses, you're spending beyond your means, or it's affecting relationships or daily responsibilities — please use the self-exclusion tool or reach out to our support team. There is no judgement involved and no friction put in the way.
9ab is for adults aged 18 and above only. Betting and gaming carry financial risk. No outcome is guaranteed. Always play within your means.
