What Ozow is

Ozow is a payment gateway that wraps instant EFT in a smooth authentication flow. Instead of a slow manual bank transfer, Ozow lets you:

  1. Select your bank inside the Ozow frame.
  2. Log in to your bank inside the same frame.
  3. Approve the payment to the bookmaker.
  4. The deposit lands in your bookmaker balance within seconds.

It is EFT under the hood — just with an instant authentication and settlement layer on top.

Supported banks

Ozow supports all major South African banks, including:

  • ABSA
  • Capitec
  • FNB
  • Nedbank
  • Standard Bank
  • African Bank
  • Investec
  • TymeBank

If you bank with any of these, Ozow works for you. (If you bank with Capitec specifically, Capitec Pay is even more streamlined.)

Ozow vs manual EFT vs Capitec Pay

Method Speed Best for
Ozow Instant Fastest universal deposit (any major bank)
Manual EFT Minutes–hours Players who prefer not to use a gateway

Important: Ozow is deposit-only

Ozow is a deposit rail, not a withdrawal rail. When you cash out Aviator winnings, they come back to your bank account via standard EFT — not through Ozow. This is normal across SA bookmakers. See the EFT guide for the withdrawal flow.
