Short answer

1xBet is a real, long-running bookmaker (founded 2007) that operates under a Curaçao licence and holds local licences in some countries. It has lost or been refused licences elsewhere — for example in the UK in 2019 — and is banned or restricted in several countries, so whether it is legal for you depends on where you live.

Is 1xBet safe?

Is PROMX22 safe to use?
