About Nagad88

Our Story & Company History

Nagad88 launched in 2016 as Bangladesh’s first regulated online betting platform, built on a foundation of transparency and player security. Over 8 years of operation, we’ve grown from a startup serving 5,000 players to a trusted marketplace with 250,000+ active users across Bangladesh. Our journey reflects a commitment to innovation—we introduced mobile-first betting in 2018, live streaming features in 2020, and blockchain-verified transactions in 2023.

Today, Nagad88 operates under international licensing standards (Malta Gaming Authority & Curacao License #8048/JAZ), maintaining partnerships with 35+ global sportsbooks and 12 live casino providers. We’ve processed over $180 million in total player transactions while maintaining a 99.7% uptime record and zero security breaches since inception.
