The 99Exch Story

99exch was born from a simple frustration. Indian sports fans — millions of passionate cricket, football and kabaddi lovers — deserved better than clunky offshore bookmakers with slow payouts, unfair odds and zero accountability. In 2023, a small team of sports enthusiasts and fintech engineers set out to build something different: a true betting exchange designed exclusively for the Indian market.

The founding team had spent years working inside traditional bookmaking operations. They watched the house edge eat into player returns. They saw withdrawal delays stretch from hours to days. They witnessed customer support reduced to automated bots and unresponsive email tickets. They knew there was a better way — and that way was the exchange model.

Unlike a traditional bookmaker that sets odds against you, a betting exchange matches bets between players. The platform simply facilitates the trade and takes a small commission on net winnings. The result is sharper odds determined by real market supply and demand, higher limits for winning players, and a fundamentally fairer system for everyone involved.

From a small office with five team members to a platform serving over 100,000 active players across India, 99exch has grown by doing one thing relentlessly well: putting the player first. Every feature, every policy, every design decision on our platform traces back to a single question — does this make the player's experience better?

Our Mission

The mission of 99exch is to provide Indian sports fans with the most transparent, fast and rewarding betting exchange experience possible. We believe every player deserves access to real market odds, instant deposits and same-day withdrawals — without compromise.

We are not here to compete with bloated global platforms that treat Indian players as an afterthought. We are here to build the best exchange for India, by people who understand India. From UPI-native deposits to Hindi-speaking support agents, from IPL-optimized servers to regional language interfaces, everything at 99exch is built with the Indian player at the centre.

Our mission is measured not by revenue targets or user acquisition numbers, but by the number of players who trust us with their activity month after month, year after year. Trust is earned through consistent performance, and that is exactly what we deliver.

Our Vision for the Future

We envision a future where every Indian sports fan has access to a world-class betting exchange — one that matches global standards for security, speed and fairness while remaining deeply rooted in the needs of the Indian market. We see a future where betting is transparent, responsible and enjoyable.

Over the coming years, 99exch will continue expanding its sports coverage, deepening its casino offerings and innovating on the technology front. We are investing heavily in live streaming, AI-powered odds analytics and mobile-first features that will redefine what an Indian betting exchange can be.

The journey from five people in a small room to one of India's most trusted exchanges has been remarkable. But we are just getting started. The best of 99exch is still ahead of us.

Our Core Values

Five principles that guide every decision at 99Exch

Speed Above All

Speed is not a feature at 99exch — it is the foundation. From 60-second ID creation to instant UPI deposits and same-day withdrawals, we have engineered every process to minimise wait times. Our servers are optimised for Indian mobile networks, ensuring smooth performance even during peak IPL hours when millions of bets flow through the platform simultaneously.

Trust & Security

Your money and data are protected by 256-bit SSL encryption, the same standard used by major banks worldwide. Player funds are held in segregated accounts, completely separate from operational funds. Our dedicated security team monitors the platform around the clock, and every transaction is audited for compliance. When you bet on 99exch, your security is never in question.

Radical Transparency

We publish our odds margins openly. We explain bonus terms in plain language before you claim them. We show real-time settlement data. At 99exch, there are no hidden algorithms, no bait-and-switch promotions and no grey areas. You always know exactly what you are getting, what it costs and what to expect.

Player-First Design

Every feature on 99exch exists because players asked for it or needed it. We run regular user research sessions, read every piece of feedback and iterate rapidly. Our product team includes active exchange bettors who use the platform daily. This is not a corporate product built in a boardroom — it is a player's product, built by players, for players.

Responsible Gaming

We believe betting should be entertainment, not a burden. 99exch provides deposit limits, session reminders, self-exclusion tools and cooling-off periods. Our support agents are trained to identify signs of problem gambling and offer assistance. We do not target minors, and we actively promote responsible gaming across all our channels.

Innovation Without Limits

We are constantly pushing the boundaries of what an Indian betting exchange can offer. From AI-driven odds analytics to live match streaming and advanced cash-out features, 99exch invests heavily in R&D. Our technology stack is built for scale, allowing us to handle millions of concurrent bets during marquee events like the IPL and T20 World Cup.

  • Session Reminders: Configurable alerts that notify you of how long you have been active on the platform.
  • Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from the platform. Self-exclusion is immediate and cannot be reversed during the exclusion period.

  • Reality Checks: Regular pop-up summaries of your activity, including total staked, net position and time spent.

We also train our support agents to recognise signs of problem gambling and to offer assistance proactively. If you or someone you know needs help, please reach out to your 99exch agent or contact a gambling helpline in your region.
