Bonus offers and promotions

10/10

When you visit MD88’s promotions page after signing up, you should see 19 bonus cards. You can sort them by VIP, New Member, Special, Sportsbook, Casino, and Slots. Let’s explore the “New Member” bonus for sportsbook customers in Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia.

Welcome bonus

MD88’s welcome offer is a 100% match to your first deposit. You must deposit at least 50 MYR to qualify for this offer. To receive the full available bonus, you must deposit 800 MYR. You must wager the bonus 20 times within 30 days.

Bettors from Singapore, on the other hand, get a 100% match bonus up to 500 SGD. The minimum deposit requirement is 50 SGD, and the wagering requirements are 15x. Australian bettors don’t get a welcome bonus for sportsbooks.

You can use the bonus to place soccer bets on the sportsbook. All 3 available products, namely AFB SPORT, SABA SPORT, and SBO SPORT markets, are eligible for betting.

The MD88 welcome bonus is available for Malaysian and Singaporean bettors on their first deposit. Make sure you read the T&Cs carefully.

Other promotions

Other than the welcome bonus, MD88 also offers a couple of ongoing sports promotions. Here’s a quick overview.

  • Reload bonus: It’s a daily reload bonus that Malaysian customers can activate with a 50 MYR deposit. At a 20% rate, you can get up to 200 MYR extra in your account every day. The money is subject to 10x wagering. Australian users, on the other hand, get a 10% match up to 200 AUD at 12x wagering.
  • Cashback bonus: It’s a weekly cashback bonus for MY customers, where you can claim against your accumulated losses. At 5% rate and a minimum of 2,500 MYR losses, you can get up to 16,888 MYR back. Aussie bettors get a 0.8% daily rebate on their betting losses.

MD88’s sports promotions give both new and existing players the opportunity to engage in their favourite sports. We’re impressed with the available options. 

Rewards and loyalty programs at MD88

  • Special rebate

To maintain your VIP status, you must deposit and turn over a certain amount. Otherwise, you’ll be demoted to Silver at the end of the month.

MD88 Licensing & security information

7/10

According to the latest information on MD88’s website, the betting platform is owned and operated by MAC MEDIA SDN. BHD. This Curacao-based private company is licensed by the Gaming Control Board (GCB). You can verify the certificate that contains the license number OGL/2024/1507/0838.

We have checked the required licenses for Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia in order for MD88 to be legal, and the Curacao one is not enough to make the bookmaker fully legal in these territories.

Usability and user experience

8/10

At first glance, MD88 appears to be well-optimised and structured. Our experts investigated further to test it. The results suggest you can quickly register, deposit, and start betting. If you’re a new user, you can simply follow the on-screen instructions. The usability is similar across desktop and mobile.

Navigation

Finding your way around the MD88 website and app is fairly intuitive. The main menu contains all the important products, such as the sportsbook, casino, VIP, slots, fishing, etc. The live chat widget floats on your screen. And the footer section contains clear links to the help center, T&Cs, and other rules. Overall, navigation is a breeze at MD88.

Design

Like many other top-tier online betting sites in Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia, MD88’s website design uses a dark theme with blue accents for items worthy of highlighting. Important features, such as the MD88 Spin, app download button, contact button, etc., are easily visible on your screen. The theme uses minimal animations to keep the loading speed fast.

  • Limitations
  • No iOS app
  • Streaming only available on SABA

MD88 App

8/10

With mobile users in mind, MD88 has developed an optimised Android APK file, which is currently available only in Malaysia. 

iOS users, on the other hand, can’t download an app. Instead, they can add the shortcut to the mobile site to their app library.

Our experience with MD88’s mobile app has been great. It’s lightweight and smooth. The interface loads perfectly on smartphones and tablets. You can easily register and log in using the prominent buttons.

Once logged in, you get the sportsbook, casino, lotteries, and other products at your fingertips. However, the loading times are sluggish compared to the desktop.

In terms of features, everything is available on the mobile app. You can quickly deposit to start betting. Besides the app, we’ve also tested the mobile site for reliability and user experience. We can safely recommend that you bet on your smartphone.

  • Android app: Yes, only for Malaysian users
  • iOS app: No

Payment methods

9/10

To fund your MD88 account from Malaysia, Singapore, or Australia, you can use a wide variety of e-wallets, bank transfer methods, and crypto. For example, Malay and Singaporean players can use Ok2Pay, DuitNow, CIMBBank, PBBBank, etc. Aussie players, on the other hand, can use local payment methods available in the country. Let’s learn more about the whole payment paradigm at MD88.

Deposit methods

For bank transfers, you can either use online banking or cash deposit machine. In either case, you need to upload a screenshot of the payment receipt for verification.

Besides fiat, MD88 offers a good spread of cryptocurrencies to choose from. To see the full list, go to your account’s deposit menu and choose crypto from the pop-up. Some of the popular options are:

  • BTC
  • ETH
  • USDT (ERC20)
  • USDC (TRC20/ERC20)
  • BNB
  • SHIB

When the deposit menu is open, you can also see a “Promo Code” field. If you have any code, this is where you enter it, not during registration.

Deposits are instant at MD88, and they’re completely free of charge. Crypto transactions can take up to 20 minutes, depending on network traffic. They also incur a small fee for every transaction.

  • Minimum deposit: 10 MYR/SGD
  • Maximum deposit: 50,000 MYR/SGD

Withdrawal methods

To get your money out of the MD88 account, you can only use a bank transfer or crypto. If you’ve used a bank transfer for a deposit already, the account should show up automatically on the withdrawal menu. You can even use your fixed deposit account to utilise MD88’s cash out feature.

MD88’s withdrawal times are usually 3-5 minutes. However, larger transactions may take longer as they require additional verification. Speaking of it, you must verify your account details with the necessary documents before you can withdraw. You may only use accounts registered in your name.

Again, MD88 doesn’t charge any withdrawal fee. Please look into the transaction fees incurred by banks or crypto networks before submitting a request.

Customer service

10/10

One of the standout features of MD88 is its dedicated domains for each accepted country. As a result, the support agents are trained for each region. You get to access the 24/7 live chat from your desktop or mobile.

Our experience with MD88’s customer support has been great. After entering the username and email address in the chat window, you instantly connect with a human agent. No need to go through a chatbot first.

We inquired about the platform’s VIP program, regional availability, currency support, etc., to enrich our review. The agent gladly answered our questions and walked us through the process. It was a pleasant and seamless experience for us.

As for support language, you can converse in English, Malay, and Chinese (simplified). You need to choose the support language before you start the chat.

You may also send direct emails or call if you’re not satisfied with the chat. Other options include WhatsApp and WeChat. Lastly, the help center contains important details about your account management.

Sports betting overview

8/10

MD88’s sportsbook is actually 2 sportsbooks. They’re AFB88 and SABA Sports. Once you log in and choose the “Sports” tab from the main menu, you can then choose which product you want to use. Our experts have tried both and created the section below for you.

Sports coverage (25+)

MD88 features betting markets from 2 different sportsbooks with coverage for over 25 sports. On AFB88, you get 12 sports, and on SABA, you get over 20. Among them, the most popular ones are:

  • Soccer
  • Tennis
  • Table Tennis
  • Basketball
  • Baseball
  • Ice Hockey
  • Cricket

On both sportsbooks, you’ll see a number on the listing. It represents the number of available markets for that sport. In terms of tournaments, expect all major events of those sports. Global events like the FIFA World Cup, ICC Cricket World Cup, IPL, FIBA World Cup, etc.

Sports odds

Our experts have taken 10+ matches as samples to analyse MD88’s odds. The results are different for 1x2 (with draw) markets and no-draw markets. Soccer markets, for example, have margins between 10% to 15%. No draw markets, on the other hand, feature under 8% margins. Overall, we think MD88’s margins have room for improvement.

Live betting and streaming

If you like to bet on live matches to get the most out of the odds, you can use MD88’s live betting page. Here, the ongoing events show up on your screen. Also, the odds change in real-time to reflect the actual status of the match.

When it comes to MD88’s live streaming, it’s only available on SABA. When there’s a stream, you can see the icon on the listing. As long as you’re logged in, you can watch the match.

Limits

The betting range for the AFB88 sportsbook is between 10 MYR/SGD to 200 MYR/SGD. And for SABA Sports, the limits are 10 MYR/SGD and 500 MYR/SGD.

Betting markets

Every day, you can expect 1,000+ markets across the available sports. All the common markets you see on other bookmakers are available for betting. Some of these markets are:

  • Odd/even
  • 1x2
  • Over/under
  • Handicap
  • Spread

While the variety of markets is good, our experts believe the spread can be larger. For example, Golf has only 1 market to bet on at the time of writing this MD88 review.

Minimum / maximum deposits

The minimum deposit at MD88 is 10 MYR or 10 SGD. And for maximum, you can deposit up to 50,000 MYR.

Conclusion

8.4/10

This review of MD88 targets users from Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia. Our impressions of all of these regions are positive. You get currency support, language support, and unique betting opportunities across the domains. You get to use bank transfers, e-wallets, and even cryptocurrencies.

The 2 sportsbooks contain around 25 sports to choose from. You can bet on regular sports, virtual sports, and esports. The margins can be lower for 1x2 markets but they’re still good. Although live betting is very good, the live streaming support is limited.

If we talk about MD88’s specials, things like the 6-step VIP programme, MD88 Spin, and Fortune Fusion (FFGame Poker) are interesting. You can engage in various activities besides betting with these.

Another noteworthy aspect of MD88’s offerings is its mobile app. It’s well-designed for Android, and the operator promises to list it on the Google Play Store soon.
