The Stake app works differently from most betting apps in India – there is no APK to sideload or App Store listing to find. Stake runs through a Progressive Web App (PWA), which means the full platform is accessible directly from your mobile browser and can be pinned to your home screen in seconds. Setup takes under two minutes on any modern smartphone.

Because Stake uses a PWA rather than a native app, there are no manual updates to download and no APK security risks. The platform updates automatically in the background. Android users on 8.0+ and iOS users on 15.6+ will have the smoothest experience. Older devices can still access Stake through any modern mobile browser without the home screen shortcut.

Can You Download the Stake App in India?

There is no standalone Stake app to download in India – no APK, no Google Play listing, and no App Store entry. Stake deliberately delivers its mobile experience through a PWA, which runs in your mobile browser. This means Indian users on both Android and iPhone can access the full platform without any installation steps beyond visiting the website.

Adding the site to your home screen via your browser menu creates a shortcut that opens Stake in a full-screen, app-like interface. This is the closest equivalent to a dedicated mobile app and is the method recommended by Stake.

Important: Stake is an offshore platform and is not regulated by an Indian gaming authority. Third-party sites offering a ‘Stake APK download’ are not official and carry security risks. Always access Stake only through the official stake.com website.

How to Access the Stake App on Mobile?

Android – Adding to Home Screen:

Open Google Chrome (or your preferred browser) and go to stake.com.
Tap the three-dot menu in the top right corner.
Select ‘Add to Home screen’ from the menu.
Confirm the name and tap Add. The Stake shortcut appears on your home screen.
Open it as you would any app – it launches in full-screen mode.

iOS (iPhone/iPad) – Adding to Home Screen:

Open Safari and navigate to stake.com.
Tap the Share icon (square with an arrow) at the bottom of the screen.
Scroll down and tap ‘Add to Home Screen’.
Confirm the name and tap Add. The shortcut is added to your home screen.
Tap the icon to open Stake in a full-screen, app-like view.

The process is quicker than a traditional app install – no storage permissions, no APK risks, no waiting for App Store approval. The experience on both platforms is near-identical since both access the same PWA. The primary practical difference is which browser you use: Chrome for Android, Safari for iOS.

Can You Claim Stake Offers on the App?

Stake promotions are accessible through the mobile PWA, as the full platform is available from any device. The current sports welcome bonus offers a 200% deposit bonus up to Rs.1,20,000 using promo code XXLPROMO.

Key offer conditions:

Deposit between Rs.500 and Rs.60,000 to qualify
200% bonus credited within 24-48 hours (subject to review)
40x wagering requirement on deposit + bonus amount
Valid on both Sportsbook and Casino
One bonus per customer – multi-accounting or canvassing results in disqualification
Bonus progress tracked in the VIP section of the account

For full conditions, refer to the Stake promo bonus terms on the official site before depositing. Crypto deposits are excluded from minimum deposit limits but check current eligibility terms.

18+ only. New customers only. T&Cs and rollover rules apply. Restrictions apply.

What are the Features of the Stake Web-App?

Sports Betting

We tested the sports section and found coverage across 30+ disciplines, with cricket among the strongest offerings for Indian users. The Stake betting app covers IPL, international Test matches, T20 leagues, and domestic tournaments, with live markets updating ball-by-ball. Beyond cricket, football, kabaddi, tennis, and esports all feature competitive odds and a range of bet types, including match winners, handicaps, totals, and player props.

Live Betting

The in-play section is a standout feature of the Stake mobile experience. Our investigation found live markets updating quickly across cricket and football, with the PWA handling real-time odds refreshes smoothly on 4G. Cash-out options are available on selected live markets, giving users flexibility during active bets.

Welcome Offer on Mobile

The sports welcome bonus (200% up to Rs. 1,20,000, code XXLPROMO) is accessible from the mobile PWA. Enter the code during registration and verify all eligibility conditions before making your qualifying deposit. The minimum deposit is Rs.500 and the 40x wagering requirement applies to deposit + bonus combined.

Casino and Live Casino

The Stake app includes an extensive casino with slots, table games, and live dealer options. Stake’s proprietary Originals games – Crash, Dice, Plinko, and others – are available on mobile and are a distinctive feature of the platform. Stake Casino wagering requirements differ from the sports offer; users should check specific casino terms before playing.

Crypto and UPI Payments

Stake supports over 20 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and USDT (TRC-20). For Indian users, UPI and Netbanking are available for INR deposits and withdrawals. During our checks, crypto transactions were confirmed within minutes for USDT, while UPI deposits were processed within 75 minutes. Stake sets no minimum or maximum limits for crypto deposits.

VIP Programme and Promotions

Stake runs an active VIP programme with rakeback, weekly bonuses, and monthly promotions tracked within the platform. Bonus progress for the welcome offer is visible in the VIP section. The platform also offers daily races, weekly lotteries, and sports bet insurance for existing users – all accessible through the mobile PWA.

Devices Compatible With the Stake Web-App

Because Stake uses a PWA rather than a native app, compatibility is determined by browser support rather than a specific OS version. Any device running a modern browser can access the full Stake mobile app experience.

Device	Supported?	Notes
Android smartphones	Yes – mobile browser	Chrome recommended; Android 8.0+ for best experience
iPhone	Yes – Safari	iOS 15.6+ recommended for optimal PWA behaviour
Android tablets	Yes	Same browser access as smartphones
iPad	Yes	Safari works well; full feature access
Older devices	Check	Any device with a modern browser can access the site

Because there is no app to install, storage space and OS version are less of a constraint than with traditional apps. Users on older Android or iOS versions should ensure their browser is updated for the best performance and security.

What is Our Review of the Stake Web-App?

Based on our testing, the Stake app (PWA) delivers a capable and fast mobile betting experience that does not require an APK download or App Store install. The sports coverage is broad, cricket markets are particularly strong, and the crypto payment options make it genuinely fast for users comfortable with digital currencies. The PWA format also eliminates the security risk of unofficial APK files – a meaningful practical advantage.

No APK download needed – PWA is safer and simpler
Strong cricket and esports coverage
20+ crypto options plus UPI for Indian users

No native app – home screen shortcut is not a true app
40x wagering on welcome bonus is high
Not regulated under any Indian authority

What Could Be Improved in the Stake Web-App?

Native app availability. While the PWA works well, some Indian users – particularly those accustomed to app-based platforms – may find the browser shortcut less intuitive. A dedicated Android app with Play Store distribution would lower the barrier for new users who are unfamiliar with the PWA concept.

Wagering requirements transparency. The 40x wagering requirement on deposit + bonus is higher than average in the Indian market. The bonus progress tracker in the VIP section helps, but clearer in-platform communication at the point of bonus activation would reduce confusion for first-time users.

Stake UPI withdrawal speeds: While crypto withdrawals are fast, UPI withdrawals have variable processing times. Fiat withdrawals can take up to three business days in some cases, which compares unfavourably with competitors offering near-instant UPI payouts. Greater consistency here would improve overall satisfaction.

Deposits and Withdrawals on the Stake Web-App

All payment methods available on the Stake desktop platform are also accessible through the Stake mobile app (PWA). Crypto is the fastest and most flexible option; UPI and Netbanking serve Indian users who prefer INR transactions.

Payment Area	What to Check
Minimum Deposit (Fiat)	Rs.500 (also the minimum qualifying deposit for the welcome bonus)
Maximum Deposit (Fiat)	Rs.60,000 per transaction (for welcome bonus eligibility)
Crypto Deposits	No minimum or maximum – 20+ coins supported
UPI / Netbanking	Deposits typically within 75 minutes
Crypto Withdrawals	Minutes (USDT TRC-20 is fastest)
Fiat Withdrawals	Up to 3 business days
KYC Verification	Required for fiat withdrawals; check current requirements

For the welcome bonus, the qualifying deposit range is Rs.500-Rs.60,000. Deposits outside this range do not qualify. For further detail on the registration process, see our Stake registration guide.

Is It Safe to Use the Stake App?

Accessing Stake through the official stake.com website is the only safe method. There is no official Stake APK or third-party app – any site offering a ‘Stake app download’ is unofficial and potentially harmful. The PWA approach actually reduces the risk associated with sideloaded files that exist on other platforms.

Stake holds a Curacao gaming licence (issued by Antillephone N.V.). It is not regulated by an Indian gaming authority. Indian consumer protections applicable to domestically licensed operators do not apply. Users should review Stake’s responsible gambling tools – deposit limits, loss limits, self-exclusion – available within the account settings before depositing. To know more about stake legality in India, read our stake legal guide.

The platform is for adults only. Users must meet the legal age requirement in their region. For a full operator overview, see our Stake review.
