When wsop launched in 2018, online betting in Bangladesh meant foreign-language interfaces, complicated payment methods, and unreliable customer support. Bangladeshi players had the distinct feeling that these platforms were never built for them – they were just using them.
Wsop was born from a single question — is it possible to build a platform for the people of Bangladesh where everything is in their native language, through payment methods they already use, and with their sporting culture at heart? The answer was yes — and that answer is today's wsop.
Built Around Cricket From Day One
Bangladesh means cricket. wsop built its entire Sports Betting section around that truth. From day one, every Bangladesh national team match received special focus – world-class cricket odds, live betting, and in-Bangla match updates – making wsop the go-to choice for cricket fans almost immediately.
In its very first year, wsop realised that cricket alone wasn't enough. Football's popularity in Bangladesh was growing fast — especially the passion among young fans for the Premier League and Champions League. wsop quickly strengthened its football betting section, and by 2019, odds for more than 50 football leagues had been added.
Adding Mobile Pay Changed Everything
The biggest turning point for wsop was the addition of Mobile Pay payments. Before that, Bangladeshi users had to go through complicated banking processes to deposit — which put many people off. After Mobile Pay launched, wsop's user base tripled in just three months. The later addition of Nagad and Rocket meant people from every corner of Bangladesh could use wsop with ease.
Live Casino – With Bangladeshi Dealers
In 2020, wsop invested in its Live Casino division and brought in Bangladeshi dealers – a landmark decision. Suddenly, players were hearing Bangla spoken at the live baccarat table, with sessions scheduled according to Bangladesh time. The response from users was extraordinary.
