q98 is a gaming and sports betting platform put together specifically for the Pakistan market. Cricket at its core, PKR throughout, and a product that works the way people here actually want to use it.
To give players in Pakistan a platform that actually fits — one where cricket, casino and bingo share the same wallet, payments work through JazzCash and Easypaisa, and the whole experience feels built for here rather than adapted from somewhere else.
The idea behind q98 came from a straightforward frustration: most gaming platforms available to players in Pakistan were built for other markets and adjusted to work here, rather than designed for here from the beginning. Payments were awkward, cricket coverage was an afterthought, odds were presented in formats that did not match how Pakistan players think about betting, and withdrawing winnings in PKR without friction was harder than it should have been.
q98 was built to address all of that. The platform was designed around cricket — specifically PSL and T20 internationals — because that is what the biggest portion of the Pakistan audience cares about most. The payment architecture puts JazzCash and Easypaisa front and centre, not as secondary options, because those are the wallets people already have on their phones. The entire balance, deposit and withdrawal experience works in PKR without any conversion steps or hidden charges.
The sports section grew from there. Football has a real following in Pakistan — Premier League matches draw genuine interest — and q98 covers it properly alongside cricket. Esports is a growing category, especially among younger players, and the platform treats CS2, Dota 2 and Valorant markets with the same seriousness as the traditional sports offering.
The casino and game lobby came in as a complement to the sports betting rather than the main focus. Slots, live casino tables, and bingo — including Cricket Bingo, which is a format unique to q98 — round out the platform for players who want more than just sports markets. The goal was always a single platform where you can follow PSL, place a bet on the next wicket, and then open a bingo room between overs, without ever switching apps or managing multiple accounts and balances.
The mobile app received the same level of attention as the platform itself. Given that the vast majority of players in Pakistan access the internet primarily through their phones, a slow or limited mobile experience was never going to be good enough. The q98 app is optimised for Pakistani network conditions — it works well on 4G and remains functional on 3G, which matters in cities where connectivity is uneven.
These are not marketing bullet points — they are the specific areas where we made deliberate decisions to build q98 differently from other platforms available to Pakistan players.
Every PSL match comes with a full set of pre-match and in-play markets — match winner, top batsman, next wicket, over-by-over runs and ball-by-ball options. International T20s and major bilateral series get the same treatment. Cricket is not a secondary feature on q98; it is the primary reason the sports section was built.
Deposits and withdrawals through JazzCash and Easypaisa are fast, straightforward and in PKR. Raast and bank transfers are also available. The payment experience was designed around how people in Pakistan actually manage money, not adapted from a system built for a different market.
In-play odds on q98 update in real time rather than being frozen and manually refreshed. During a T20 match, the market moves with the game — which is exactly what it should do. Bet confirmation is fast enough to matter when you are trying to act on what you are watching.
Cricket Bingo ties bingo card outcomes to live match events — wickets, sixes, boundaries, milestones. It runs alongside live fixtures and gives cricket fans a different kind of engagement with the game. It is one of the features that came directly from thinking about what Pakistan players would actually enjoy, rather than copying a standard product format.
Deposit limits, session time reminders and self-exclusion are part of the account settings — not hidden away or hard to find. q98 is for adults aged 18 and above, and the tools to manage how you play are there from the moment you register. Responsible gaming is not a footnote here; it is part of how the platform is set up.
The q98 Android and iOS app is optimised for Pakistani network conditions. It runs well on 4G and stays functional on 3G without crashing or timing out on bet confirmations. Most players access everything through their phones — the app was built with that as the default assumption, not a secondary use case.
Every decision at q98 comes back to a small set of principles that shaped how the platform was built and how it continues to develop. These are not aspirational values written for a wall — they are the practical commitments that inform how we make product choices.
q98 is designed for entertainment, not as a way to make money. Set a budget before you start — decide on an amount you are comfortable spending and stick to it. Use the deposit limits in your account settings to help with this. Take breaks; session reminders in the app are there for a reason. If gaming stops feeling like fun, that is the signal to step back.
The platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Self-exclusion is available in account settings for anyone who needs it. For more guidance on managing your play, visit our Responsible Gaming page.
