Stablecoin deposits
Stablecoin deposits are supported by every crypto sportsbook in this comparison, but the operational numbers behind them — licence status, KYC thresholds, coin counts, withdrawal windows — differ enough that the deposit method alone does not tell you what happens after the money arrives. The figures below come from published reviews and licence records, not from operator marketing.
What a licence actually covers when you deposit
Four of the operators here hold a Curacao licence, one holds an Anjouan licence, and the licence number itself is the only verifiable identifier you can check against a regulator's register.
| Operator | Licence | Licence reference |
|---|---|---|
| Stake | Curacao Gaming Authority | OGL/2024/1451/0918 (Medium Rare N.V.) |
| Cloudbet | Curacao Gaming Authority | OGL/2024/328/0599 |
| Dexsport | Anjouan | Dexapp LTD |
| Thunderpick | Curacao | Operating since 2017 |
| Sportsbet.io | Curacao eGaming | — |
Two of the Curacao licences carry the OGL prefix, which places them under the same licensing framework. The Anjouan licence held by Dexsport sits in a different jurisdiction with a different supervisory body. For a depositor, the practical consequence is where a complaint would be filed and which authority's rules apply to the operator's handling of funds.
KYC: the point where a deposit turns into a withdrawal problem
KYC requirements are where stablecoin deposits stop being anonymous in practice. The five operators split into three groups.
KYC mandatory before any withdrawal: Stake requires level 2 verification before a withdrawal can be processed. A deposit can be made first; the verification gate sits on the way out.
KYC partial: Cloudbet applies checks only when required. Sportsbet.io requests verification more often than Stake or Cloudbet, according to the source review — a description of frequency, not a fixed threshold.
KYC not required: Dexsport allows anonymous entry via Web3 wallets. This is the only operator in the set where the entry point itself is wallet-based and does not require identity documents.
The distinction matters for deposit planning. A stablecoin deposit is technically the same transaction at all five; what differs is whether the operator can freeze the balance pending documents before it reaches a withdrawal address.
Coin counts and what they mean for stablecoin settlement
The number of supported coins varies by an order of magnitude across the set.
- Dexsport: 85+ coins across 20+ blockchains
- Cloudbet: 30+ coins
- Stake: 21 coins
- Sportsbet.io: 13 coins — BTC, ETH, USDT and 10+ others
- Thunderpick: 5 coins — BTC, ETH, LTC, USDT, XRP and more
USDT appears explicitly in the Sportsbet.io and Thunderpick listings. For the other three, the source material lists totals rather than naming each stablecoin, so a specific stablecoin should be confirmed on the operator's deposit page before sending funds.
The blockchain count matters separately from the coin count. Dexsport's 20+ blockchains means the same stablecoin may be available on several networks, and the network you choose determines the fee and the confirmation time — neither of which is fixed in the source data.
If the table above settled it for you, open an account and read the platform's own terms first: rankings compare what is published, not what happens to your money.
See what Dexsport offersWithdrawal timing after the deposit clears
Deposit speed is rarely the constraint; withdrawal speed is. The published figures:
- Thunderpick: instant
- Sportsbet.io: under 30 minutes on Bitcoin
- Stake: 0–2 days after approval
Cloudbet and Dexsport do not have a withdrawal time stated in the source material, so no figure is given here. Note the wording on Stake: the 0–2 day window starts after approval, which is a separate step from the withdrawal request itself. The Sportsbet.io figure is specific to Bitcoin, not to stablecoins — the source does not state a stablecoin withdrawal time.
Market coverage as a secondary check on the deposit decision
Sports covered is a proxy for how much use a deposited balance will get.
| Operator | Sports covered | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Stake | 30 | Football, basketball, tennis, baseball, hockey, esports |
| Cloudbet | 5 | Football, basketball, tennis, MMA, esports |
| Sportsbet.io | 4 | Football, basketball, tennis, esports |
| Thunderpick | 3 | Esports focused, limited traditional sports |
Dexsport's sports count is not stated in the source material. Stake's 30 covers the broadest list in the set; Thunderpick's 3 is the narrowest and is explicitly esports-weighted. A stablecoin deposit into an account with three sports has fewer places to be used than one with thirty, which affects how long the balance sits idle and how many deposit-and-withdraw cycles it goes through.
Putting the numbers side by side
Read across the rows rather than down the columns. The operator with the widest coin coverage (Dexsport, 85+ across 20+ blockchains) is also the one with no KYC requirement and an Anjouan licence rather than a Curacao OGL number. The operator with the largest sportsbook (Stake, 30 sports) requires level 2 verification before any withdrawal and quotes
Before you ask
Which of the five operators holds a licence from a different jurisdiction than the others?
Dexsport holds an Anjouan licence issued to Dexapp LTD, while Stake, Cloudbet, Thunderpick, and Sportsbet.io hold Curacao licences. For a depositor, this means a complaint would be filed in a different jurisdiction with a different supervisory body than for the other four.
Does Stake process withdrawals immediately after I request them?
No. Stake quotes a withdrawal time of 0–2 days after approval, and approval is a separate step from the withdrawal request itself. The window starts only after that approval step has been completed.
Which operator allows a stablecoin deposit without submitting identity documents at entry?
Dexsport allows anonymous entry via Web3 wallets and does not require identity documents at the entry point. It is the only operator in the set where the entry point itself is wallet-based.
Is the number of supported blockchains the same thing as the number of supported coins?
No. Dexsport lists 85+ coins across 20+ blockchains, which means the same stablecoin may be available on several networks. The network you choose determines the fee and the confirmation time.
Does the Sportsbet.io withdrawal time under 30 minutes apply to stablecoins?
No. The under-30-minute figure is specific to Bitcoin, and the source does not state a stablecoin withdrawal time for Sportsbet.io. A specific stablecoin time should be confirmed on the operator's deposit page before sending funds.
