Through our nation-wide network of almost 6.000 SelfPay payment stations, players all around the country can safely top up their online accounts with cash.”
OKTO.CASH offers users with a fast method to send money online, as it does not require signing up to a third party service. Users just need to select OKTO.CASH in the merchant’s app or site and pick nearest convenient SelfPay location to send money to their account securely in real-time.
The new fintech solution has been launched under the Betano brand and is currently branded as Betano.Cash.
