Kirabet was founded in 2017 by a group of sports betting enthusiasts who recognised a gap in the Malaysian market: players deserved a platform that combined global-standard game quality with the localised experience they actually wanted — RM deposits, Malaysian payment gateways, live odds on Liga Super Malaysia fixtures, and customer support that understood the local context.
In those early years, the platform concentrated primarily on football betting. Malaysian fans have always had a deep connection with the beautiful game, whether following their hometown clubs in the Liga Super or staying up past midnight to watch Manchester United, Liverpool, or Chelsea in the EPL. Kirabet built its early reputation by offering consistently competitive Asian Handicap and Over/Under odds on these matches, with live in-play betting that kept pace with the action.
By 2019, the Kirabet catalogue had expanded well beyond football. Slots from a diverse range of licensed international studios joined the platform, followed by a fully featured live casino suite offering Baccarat, Blackjack, Roulette, Dragon Tiger, and Sic Bo — all streamed with professional dealers and crystal-clear video quality. The fishing game category, enormously popular among Southeast Asian players, was added in response to direct member feedback from our growing community in Penang, Johor Bahru, and Klang Valley.
Between 2020 and 2022, Kirabet invested heavily in its payments infrastructure. Recognising that the most frequent player frustration with online betting platforms was around deposits and withdrawals, the team integrated direct partnerships with DuitNow, FPX, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, and Boost — giving Malaysian members genuinely instant deposit processing and withdrawal turnaround times that now average under 10 minutes for most methods.
Today, Kirabet serves over 250,000 registered members across Malaysia — from Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya to Penang, Johor Bahru, Shah Alam, and Kota Kinabalu. Our platform hosts more than 1,500 games, covers 30+ sports markets, and processes millions of ringgit in withdrawals every single day. The growth has been remarkable, but our founding ethos has never changed: player trust and safety above everything else.
