Opay for Betting in Nigeria: How to Deposit & Withdraw (2026 Guide)

How to use Opay to fund and cash out your betting account in Nigeria — including the *955# USSD code for depositing without data.

2 min readBy Naija Score


Opay is one of the most popular ways Nigerians move money — and it works just as well for funding your betting account. Whether you use the app or the *955# USSD code, this guide shows you how to deposit and withdraw fast.

Depositing to your bookmaker with Opay

Every deposit is really a bank transfer to your betting wallet. With Opay you can do it two ways:

Using the Opay app:

StepWhat you do
1In your bookmaker, open Deposit → Bank Transfer and copy the account number + bank.
2Open Opay → Transfer → To Bank Account.
3Enter the bank and account number, then the amount.
4Confirm with your PIN. Money lands in seconds.

Using USSD (no data):

Dial *955#, choose Transfer, enter the bookmaker’s bank and account number, the amount, and your PIN. Works on any phone — ideal on Opera Mini or when your data is finished.

Withdrawing your winnings to Opay

Set your Opay account as the withdrawal bank in your bookmaker’s cashier, then request a payout. Funds return to your Opay wallet, usually within minutes.

Opay vs Moniepoint for punters
