At the moment, Nigerian sports betting platform BetKing does not accept deposits via Skrill. However, plenty of other deposit methods are available. These include bank transfer, eMailMoni, and several other methods.
Bank transfer
You can choose from the following banks:

If successful, your deposit will appear in your account immediately. This deposit method is free of charge, but the minimum you can deposit is 100 naira. The maximum is 10,000,000. At the time of writing, one naira was worth GBP 0.0018.
eMailMoni
With eMailMoni, you can deposit from any bank account in your name. This is an app you can download from Google Play, the Apple Store, or the official website.
To make a deposit with eMailMoni, open the app or website and login to your account. This presupposes you’ve already created one.
Go to Games & Lotteries and look for the BetKing logo. As with the first method, enter your User ID and how much you want to deposit.
Then, confirm the information and approve the transaction. The amount will be credited to your account at once if the transfer was successful. You’ll receive confirmation by email.
This deposit method comes with a fee of 52.50 naira. The minimum deposit is 100 again, but the maximum depends on your card.
UBA
If you have a mobile phone number registered with UBA, dial *919*26*Amount#. Then, enter your PIN number. Choose the number to be debited for this transfer. Enter your user ID, which you can see in the upper right-hand corner of the site when you log in.
Now, confirm the details and enter a deposit amount.
Click on “send” to complete your transaction.
You will get a notice once your transaction has gone through. The fee on this method is N 20 and the minimum deposit is N 50.
QuickTeller ATM Deposit
You can use any ATM that has enabled QuickTeller / Interswitch for this. Insert your debit card, enter your PIN, and go to “Pay Bills”. On ATMs that don’t display this, you need to go to “QuickTeller” instead.
Choose your Account type. Depending on your card, there are two options: savings or current.
This deposit method works with a merchant code, which is 04314801.
Now, enter your user ID. It might also go by the name Customer Reference Number. Again, this is the 6-digit number mentioned above.
Choose a deposit amount, enter your phone number, and go to Proceed. When the transfer goes through, you’ll get an SMS confirming it.
QuickTeller charges a fee of N 100. That’s also the minimum deposit amount. The maximum one is N 10,000,000.
Zenith Mobile Transfer
You can also use Zenith Bank’s mobile banking option. In the app, find the Menu and choose Bill Payment in it. You need to look for the Gaming / Lottery category. Choose BetKing (biller) and enter the desired deposit amount and your user ID. Then, go to Continue. The funds will show up in your account at once if the payment is successful.
The fee and the min deposit are each N 100. The maximum you can deposit is N 3,000,000.
