While bKash and Nagad account for the highest gross volume of mobile transactions nationwide, high transaction frequency often leads to server congestion, delayed SMS delivery, or scheduled maintenance during peak evening gaming hours.

| Underlying Banking Parent | United Commercial Bank PLC (UCB) |

By maintaining an active, verified Upay wallet alongside traditional payment methods, players ensure uninterrupted access to deposits and withdrawals, avoiding the frustration of network-wide delays on primary mobile carriers.

Depositing funds into your DarazPlay account using Upay is straightforward. Follow this five-step sequence to ensure automatic crediting.


------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 5-Step Upay Deposit Flow
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1: Open Cashier       --> Select "Deposit" > Choose "Upay"
Step 2: Copy Wallet Number --> Note the currently active receiving number
Step 3: Open Upay App      --> Execute "Cash Out" or "Send Money"
Step 4: Record TrxID       --> Copy the alphanumeric ID from confirmation
Step 5: Confirm on Portal  --> Submit sender number, sum, and TrxID


### Accessing the Cashier and Selecting Upay

Log into your account via desktop browser or the [DarazPlay App](/darazplay/app-download.md). Navigate to the cashier section in the top navigation bar, click on "Deposit," and select the **Upay** icon.

### Retrieving the Dynamic Upay Receiving Number

The cashier screen will display the currently active platform Upay wallet number and specify the required transaction type: **Agent Account** or **Personal Account**.
- **Important Security Reminder:** Platform receiving accounts rotate continuously to manage liquidity flows across the banking network. **Never save an Upay number in your mobile contacts to reuse later.** Always copy the freshly generated number displayed on the active cashier screen.

### Completing the Transfer via the Upay Mobile App

Open your official Upay smartphone application:
1. Tap **Cash Out** (for agent accounts) or **Send Money** (for personal accounts) based on the instructions displayed in the cashier.
2. Paste the platform Upay wallet number into the recipient field.
3. Input the exact sum in Bangladeshi Taka that you wish to deposit.
4. Leave the "Reference" or "Remarks" field completely blank to comply with anti-fraud safeguards.
5. Enter your 4-digit Upay security PIN and tap and hold the screen to authorize the transfer.

### Securing the Unique Transaction ID (TrxID)

Upon transaction completion, the Upay application displays a digital receipt and dispatches an automated SMS confirmation to your registered phone number.
- Locate the field labeled **TrxID** (a unique alphanumeric sequence).
- Copy this code accurately. The TrxID represents your cryptographic proof of transfer, allowing the automated payment system to match your payment against incoming banking feeds.

### Submitting the Verification Form on DarazPlay

Return immediately to the open cashier window:
1. Confirm the exact deposit amount in BDT.
2. Enter the personal Upay mobile number from which the transfer originated.
3. Paste the TrxID into the designated verification field.
4. Click **Submit Deposit**.

Under standard operational conditions, the automated matching engine reconciles your TrxID within two to five minutes, updating your playable balance immediately.

## Step-by-Step Walkthrough: Withdrawing Funds via Upay

Cashing out your winnings back to your personal Upay wallet provides fast, secure settlement directly to your smartphone.


------------------------------------------------------------------------
The 4-Step Upay Cashout Flow
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 1: Open Withdrawal    --> Select "Withdrawal" > Choose "Upay"

Step 3: Enter Account No.  --> Input verified 11-digit personal Upay number
Step 4: Receive Funds      --> Balance reflects in your wallet in 5-15 min


### Pre-Withdrawal Verification

Before submitting an Upay cashout request:
- Confirm that your account profile has completed identity verification in accordance with [Fair Play and KYC Protocols](/fair-play-security.md).
- Ensure that any active promotional turnover requirements have been satisfied (or that your unbonded deposit has satisfied the standard 1x anti-money laundering turnover).
- Verify that the cashout is directed to the same personal Upay account used for prior deposits.

### Submitting the Request

1. Select **Upay** from the Withdrawal menu in the cashier.
2. Enter the desired withdrawal amount in Bangladeshi Taka.
3. Input your 11-digit personal Upay mobile number (e.g., `01XXXXXXXXX`).
4. Click **Submit Withdrawal**.

The transaction enters the automated dispatch queue. Following security verification, funds are transmitted directly to your Upay account. You will receive an official notification SMS confirming the newly credited balance.

## Security Architecture and Account Hygiene

Upay incorporates advanced cybersecurity protocols backed by UCB's institutional banking standards. Maintaining rigorous personal account hygiene ensures that your financial accounts remain fully protected.


| Security Rule | Operational Requirement |
| :--- | :--- |
| Blank Reference Note | NEVER write sensitive terms like "casino," "bet," or |
|  | "DarazPlay" in transfer reference notes. |
| Verified Personal Account | Transact exclusively from an Upay wallet registered |
|  | in your own legal name matching your Smart NID. |
| SIM-Device Pairing | Ensure the registered SIM is physically present in |
|  | the handset running the Upay mobile app. |
| Keep PIN Confidential | Never share your 4-digit Upay PIN with anyone. |



### The Strict Reference Note Rule

The Upay mobile application provides an optional reference note field during transfers.
- **Never enter sensitive sensitive terms such as "casino," "DarazPlay," "gambling," "bet," or "cricket" in this field.**
- Telecommunications providers and financial compliance units monitor sensitive term logs using automated detection software. Typing gambling-related terms can lead to automated account freezes and regulatory inquiries.
- Leave this field completely empty, or enter a neutral numeric order code if required.

## Troubleshooting Delayed Upay Transactions

While the vast majority of Upay transactions credit instantaneously, network latency or input errors can occasionally cause delays.


| Symptom | Likely Root Cause | Corrective Action |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Balance not credited (15m) | Incorrect TrxID typed | Cross-check TrxID in app |
| Upay transfer failed | Daily limit reached | Check Bangladesh Bank caps |
| Money debited, no record | Network server delay | Contact 24/7 Live Support |



### Contacting 24/7 Customer Support

If your deposit or withdrawal has not settled after fifteen minutes:
1. Open your Upay application, navigate to the **Transactions** tab, and confirm that the transfer was successfully completed.
2. Launch the [24/7 Customer Care Live Chat](/darazplay/customer-care.md) on the website.
3. Provide the support specialist with:
   - Your platform username
   - Exact BDT transaction sum
   - Sender Upay mobile number
   - The full TrxID
   - A screenshot of the Upay transaction confirmation
4. Support agents will immediately trace the status on the payment gateway ledger and resolve any administrative bottlenecks.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What makes Upay different from bKash and Nagad?
Upay operates directly under United Commercial Bank PLC (UCB), providing institutional banking security, robust server uptime during peak evening hours, and competitive cashout charges through UCB's nationwide network of agent points and branches.

### Are there any fees charged by DarazPlay for Upay deposits or withdrawals?
No. DarazPlay processes all deposits and withdrawals with 0% platform commission. Any standard network charges associated with converting your digital Upay balance into physical cash at agent booths are levied directly by Upay.

### Can I deposit using Upay USSD (*268#) without internet access?
Yes. You can dial `*268#` from any mobile handset to access Upay's USSD banking menu, complete Cash Out or Send Money transfers, and receive your confirmation SMS containing the TrxID.

### Can I withdraw to an Upay agent account instead of a personal wallet?
No. Security protocols and mobile banking regulations strictly prohibit sending cashouts to commercial agent accounts. All withdrawals must be directed to verified personal Upay accounts.

### What should I do if I accidentally enter an incorrect Upay number during withdrawal?
If the withdrawal request is still listed as "Pending," immediately contact Live Chat to request an urgent cancellation. However, if the status shows "Completed" and the transfer has already been executed on the telecom network, the funds cannot be recovered. Always review your account number before confirming.
