Deposits via DuitNow, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, and ShopeePay are credited within a few seconds. FPX deposits typically take 1–5 minutes depending on your bank's response time. If your deposit hasn't been credited after 10 minutes, contact support with your proof of payment.

api88 does not charge any fees for deposits. What you send is exactly what gets credited to your account. Any transaction fees (if applicable) are charged by your payment provider or bank, not us.
