🧠 How Cambodian Bettors Use Pi Pay
While Pi Pay does not directly link to sportsbooks like 1xBet, Betwinner, or 855Bet, bettors use Telegram agents to convert Pi Pay into betting credits.
Here’s how the typical process works:
✅ Step 1: Download and Register Pi Pay
- Available on Android and iOS
- Register using your mobile number and national ID
✅ Step 2: Top Up Your Pi Pay Account

✅ Step 3: Find a Verified Betting Agent (Telegram/Facebook)

🎯 This makes Pi Pay more useful for deposits than for withdrawals — but still a great mobile betting tool.
