Crickex is a South Asian betting brand built around cricket. Its main selling point is a betting exchange, where you back and lay cricket outcomes against other users, next to a classic sportsbook and a casino. You can open an account in several currencies, including US dollars and UAE dirhams, which matters for fans who follow cricket from abroad.
In this Crickex review we look at what the exchange does well, what the promotions are really worth, how the Android app performs and where the site falls short. If you only want the headline: it is a good exchange for cricket, a middling sportsbook and a site with no welcome bonus to speak of.

Crickex bonuses and promotions
No welcome bonus, and that is a choice
Most cricket betting sites try to win you over with a large first-deposit bonus. Crickex does not list one. At our last check, its sports offer was the Daily 250% Sports Reload Bonus, which you can claim on up to five deposits a day. The bonus is worth up to INR 3,500 in total, and the offer restarts every day at 10:00 PM IST. Select it in the promotion menu at the deposit step, then press Claim Now under My Promotion.
Daily 250% sports reload bonus
The bonus grows with each deposit, and so does the turnover. The first deposit (INR 200 to 25,000) earns 25% up to INR 300 at 15x turnover. The second (from INR 600) earns 30% up to INR 500 at 18x. The third (from INR 1,000) earns 45% up to INR 700 at 20x, the fourth earns 60% up to INR 1,000 at 22x, and the fifth (from INR 1,500) earns 90% up to INR 1,000 at 20x. You have 3 days to use the bonus, maximum withdrawal is INR 30,000, and the promotion cannot be combined with another one.
Casino cashback and reload offers
Casino players get a 150% daily reload on Sexy Casino games, free spin offers on selected JILI, PG and JDB slots (up to 600, 350 and 280 spins) and a weekly slots boost. Games, days and conditions change often, so read the promotions page before you deposit.

Exchange, sportsbook and casino
The betting exchange
The exchange is what sets Crickex apart from most sites on our ranking of cricket betting sites. You can back a team or a player as usual, or lay an outcome, which means betting that it will not happen. Match odds, innings runs and session markets, known as fancy bets, are all available on big cricket games, and prices on the exchange are usually keener than at a traditional bookmaker because you are betting against other users. Liquidity is strong on the IPL and major internationals, and thinner on smaller leagues. We compare it with the other exchanges we have tested in our guide to cricket betting exchange sites.
The sportsbook
Alongside the exchange, Crickex runs a fixed-odds sportsbook with close to 20 sports: cricket first, then football, tennis, basketball, kabaddi and esports. The cricket section covers pre-match and in-play markets with live stats and, for some matches, live streaming. The sportsbook is decent rather than outstanding: margins are fair on cricket and football, but the number of markets per match is lower than at the biggest international bookmakers.
The casino
The casino has more than 150 slots, table games, a live dealer section and fishing games. It is a solid extra for a site that is mainly about sports, but not a reason to sign up on its own.
Crickex on mobile
At our last check the official site offered apps for Android and iOS, downloaded from the site itself, plus a mobile version that needs no download. Install apps only from the official site, and check your phone settings before allowing installs from unknown sources.
Our review of Crickex
Crickex is a good choice if you want an exchange for cricket and accept that promotions come as tiered daily reloads rather than one big sign-up bonus. The sports reload tops out at INR 3,500 in bonus and carries 15x to 22x turnover, so do the maths before you deposit.
Strengths
- Real betting exchange with back and lay bets on cricket
- Daily sports reload bonus (up to 250% across five deposits) and casino promotions instead of a classic welcome bonus
- Android app with biometric login and live streaming
- Accounts in several currencies, including USD and AED
Weaknesses
- Sports bonus is a tiered daily reload capped at INR 3,500
- Apps are installed from the site, not from an app store
- Fewer markets per match than the biggest bookmakers
- Exchange liquidity drops outside the big matches

Our verdict
Crickex is one of the few sites in our list with a proper cricket betting exchange, and that alone earns it a place on the shortlist of any fan who likes to lay as well as back. The rebate model suits regular bettors more than bonus hunters, and the Android app is among the better ones we have tested. We rate it 4/5: strong for cricket exchange betting, average for everything else.
