1xBet BirrBonus100: the welcome bonus in Ethiopian Birr

Where to enter BirrBonus100

In the promo code field of the registration form, before you confirm the account — the same field the Betpower100 guide walks through step by step. Set the currency to Ethiopian Birr while you are there: 1xBet lets you open the account in ETB, and this is the setting that makes everything below apply. The currency cannot be switched afterwards without contacting support.

An ETB account at 1xBet: what it means

Since the December 2025 revocation of all Ethiopian betting licences, 1xBet serves Ethiopians through its international site under a Curaçao licence — but the account can still be denominated in Birr. Odds, stakes, balances, bonus amounts and cashier limits are all shown in ETB; there is no conversion on deposit or withdrawal when you use Telebirr, CBE Birr, M-Pesa or a local bank. The only moment currency conversion appears is if you deposit with a card in another currency or with crypto, and crypto deposits do not qualify for the welcome offer anyway.

The minimum stake reported for ETB accounts is about 47 ETB; local deposit minimums start at 20 ETB (CBE Birr, M-Pesa, E-Birr) or 100 ETB (Telebirr), and the bonus needs at least 150 ETB.

The welcome offer in Birr

1xBet advertises 200% of the first deposit up to 40,000 ETB for Ethiopia (one listing shows 30,000 ETB; treat the number in your account as the real one). Because the offer is credited as two halves, the arithmetic looks like this:

The cap of 40,000 ETB is reached with a 20,000 ETB deposit. Above that, the deposit is simply larger than the bonus. The sports turnover must be placed in accumulators of three or more selections at odds of 1.40 or higher; the games turnover on 1xGames only. Both run against the same validity period — 30 days in most listings.

Depositing in Birr

1. Open the cashier and choose a local method

   Telebirr, CBE Birr, M-Pesa, E-Birr, or a bank channel. All are listed in ETB with their own minimums and maximums.

2. Enter an amount of at least 150 ETB

   Below that the deposit is accepted but the welcome offer is not activated.

3. Confirm in the wallet app

   Telebirr and CBE Birr send a push or USSD prompt; the balance updates within a minute or two.

4. Check the bonus entries

   Two bonus balances appear alongside the main one. Each shows its remaining turnover in Birr.

The wallet or bank account must be in your own name. 1xBet verifies the account holder before the first payout, and money sent from a third party's Telebirr can be held.

Withdrawing in Birr

Payouts go back to Telebirr, CBE Birr, M-Pesa or E-Birr with published times of 15 minutes to 2 hours once your identity is verified; bank routes are shown per method; card withdrawals are not available. Before any withdrawal, the deposited amount must have been staked once at odds of 1.1 or higher, and any active bonus must have completed its rollover — requesting a payout with a bonus still running normally cancels the bonus.

Tax on winnings

Proclamation No. 1395/2025 sets the withholding tax on winnings from games of chance at 20–25%. The locally licensed 1xbet.et used to deduct the previous 15% automatically at payout. Whether the international operator withholds Ethiopian tax on an ETB account is not stated in the materials we reviewed; the obligation to declare may sit with you. For real amounts, ask a tax professional — PromoCode.et is not one. Background in the legal status guide.
