How to deposit money in YesPlay with ATM Deposit?

An ATM deposit on YesPlay is a cash or cardless payment into YesPlay’s bank account. You do not tap the YesPlay app at the machine. You pay SA Sportsbook at Absa, FNB, Nedbank or Standard Bank and use only your YesPlay mobile number as the reference. Keep the slip. That slip is what support needs if the wallet stays empty.

This is not an ATM withdrawal. Taking money out uses a Standard Bank Instant Money voucher and PIN sent by SMS. Putting money in uses the published deposit accounts below.

Cash deposit or cardless transfer

ATMs handle this in two ways.

Cash deposit: you feed notes into a machine that accepts deposits. Some machines let you do this without inserting a card (cardless cash deposit). You still type the SA Sportsbook account number and your mobile number as the reference.

Cardless or account-to-account transfer: you insert your own bank card, or start a cardless transfer, and send money from your account to SA Sportsbook. Same account numbers. Same reference.

Use the bank whose account you are paying. An Absa cash deposit should go to the Absa SA Sportsbook account, not to FNB. Cross-bank payments can take longer.

Supermarket or “other bank” ATMs only work if that machine lets you pay a third-party account and accept a reference. Many shop ATMs only do cash withdrawals. If the screen has no option to pay another account, use a branch ATM for that bank or switch to Ozow in the app.

Capitec is not on YesPlay’s listed ATM accounts. Capitec players usually fund the wallet with Capitec Pay or Ozow, then use an ATM only if they are paying one of the four accounts below.

How to do it at the machine

Write down your registered YesPlay mobile number. That is the only reference.
Confirm the latest account numbers on yesplay.bet/terms.
Go to an Absa, FNB, Nedbank or Standard Bank ATM that accepts deposits or third-party transfers.
Choose cash deposit or cardless / transfer to another account.
Enter the SA Sportsbook account number and branch code for that bank.
Type only your mobile number in the reference field — no name, no extra digits.
Insert the cash or approve the transfer.
Take the slip and keep it until the money shows in My Wallet.

Pay R100 or more. Amounts under R100, or payments with the wrong reference, can attract a R10 admin fee from YesPlay. That fee is separate from whatever the bank charges for using the ATM.

Same-bank deposits can show the same day. Cross-bank, after-hours and weekend payments can take up to 24 hours, or until the next business day.

Instant EFT (Ozow or Capitec Pay) and many vouchers are the methods most offers accept. If you want a match bonus, check the cashier before you put cash in the machine.

If the money does not show

Wait until the next banking window if you paid after hours or on a weekend. Then read the slip:

Correct SA Sportsbook account for that bank
Correct branch code
Reference is only your mobile number
Amount R100 or more

Do not make a second ATM deposit with a new reference until support has looked at the first one. Two unmatched payments are harder to sort than one.

Email support@yesplay.bet or use live chat with:

Registered mobile number
Bank and ATM location (and whether it was cash or a transfer)
Amount and time
Clear photo of both sides of the ATM slip

Example: “Mobile 08X XXX XXXX. Cash deposit R200 at the FNB ATM in Sandton, 16:40 today. Reference was my number. Wallet still zero. Slip attached.”

YesPlay’s deposit FAQ also explains how FNB and Capitec players should send proof of payment.

An ATM deposit on YesPlay is a cash or cardless payment to SA Sportsbook with your mobile number as the reference. Use R100 or more, confirm the official account numbers, keep the slip, and allow up to 24 hours. If the wallet stays empty, send that slip to live chat or support@yesplay.bet instead of paying again.

Common questions

Is an ATM deposit instant?
No. Plan for up to a day. Ozow is the instant bank option.

Cash or card — which option do I pick?
Use cash deposit if you have notes and the machine accepts them. Use a card or cardless transfer if you are sending money from your own bank account to SA Sportsbook. Both need the same account numbers and the same mobile-number reference.

Can I deposit at a supermarket ATM?
Only if that machine lets you pay another account and add a reference. Many shop ATMs only pay out cash. A bank-branded ATM is the safer choice.

Can I deposit cash if I have no card?
Yes, at ATMs that allow cardless cash deposits, as long as you use the SA Sportsbook account and your mobile number as the reference.

Does an ATM deposit count for the welcome bonus?
Often no. Instant EFT and many vouchers usually do.

What if I typed the wrong reference?
Send the slip to support. Do not keep retrying with different numbers.
