96M review: licence and operator checked
Claims a Curaçao licence but gives no number and no company, so nothing can be matched on any register.
What 96M does well
These are 96M’s strongest points, from what it publishes and from the checks it passed. We did not test them. The licence verdict and the legal position follow below.
- Safer-gambling tools. Deposit limits, a 24-hour cooling-off and self-exclusion are stated on the Malaysian site.[54]
- No cap on winnings stated. Neither welcome-bonus terms set a maximum bet or a maximum cash-out.[219][223]
- A low multiple on Mega888 and 918Kiss. The welcome option for those two carries a 6x winover, against 25x on other slots.[224][220]
- Worked examples in the terms. The terms show that a MYR 100 deposit with a MYR 100 slots bonus needs MYR 5,000 of bets, so the cost is clear up front.[220]
- Rebates with no cap and no turnover. The instant rebate pays 0.3% to 1.0% of valid bets from MYR 1.[227]
- A broad lobby. Sports, e-sports, live casino, slots, fishing, 4D and lottery, with Evolution, Pragmatic Play and Playtech among the named providers.[244][222]
- Support in three languages. 24-hour support by live chat, WhatsApp and email in Bahasa Malaysia, English and Chinese, and no deposit or withdrawal fees of its own.[250][242][233]
Verdict on the licence
96M is number 4 of 10 in our editorial list. On the licence checks it is in tier D, “Licence claimed, not found on a register”, and passes 2 of six. Claims a Curaçao licence but gives no number and no company, so nothing can be matched on any register.
Not tested: we opened no account, made no deposit and played no game. The bonus, payment, game and support sections report what the operator publishes, not what we saw happen.
The six checks
| Check | Result | What we found |
|---|---|---|
| Licence named with a number on the brand’s own site | Fail | Curaçao named, but no number[53] |
| Licence in good standing on the regulator’s register | Fail | No matching entry on the Curaçao or Anjouan register[55][56] |
| Malaysia-facing domain shown on the licence | Fail | No register entry to list it[55] |
| Operating company named on the Malaysia-facing site | Fail | No company named[53] |
| Safer-gambling tools stated | Pass | Deposit limits, 24-hour cooling-off and self-exclusion stated[54] |
| No conflicting licence claims and no Malaysian court case naming it | Pass | No conflicting claim found and no Malaysian court case naming it |
The method page explains each check and how ties are broken.
What 96M says about its licence
96M’s Malaysian page says it offers full ringgit transactions under “Gaming Control Board licensing” from Curaçao, with no licence number and no company.[53] www.96m.com now redirects to 96mwin.com, which makes the same Curaçao claim.[51] Earlier research in October found no licence claim at all, so this wording appears to be new.
What the register shows
With no number or company, there is nothing to look up. We found no 96M entry on the Curaçao register dated 20 October 2026, or on the Anjouan register.[55][56]
The site Malaysians are sent to
The Malaysian page is 96mya.com/en-my, and 96mwin.com quotes bonuses in ringgit.[53][52] The range covers slots, live casino, sportsbook, esports, fishing and rooms for the 918Kiss and Mega888 slot platforms, neither of which states any licence that we could verify.
Safer-gambling tools
The Malaysian page states deposit limits, 24-hour cooling-off periods and self-exclusion.[54] The terms page loads by script, so we could not read the company name or the detail of these tools.
The site as we found it
Everything from here to the legal section comes from 96M’s Malaysian site, 96mya.com, read on 28 Oct 2026. We opened no account, so it is what the operator says, not what we saw happen.
Welcome bonus and terms
We claimed no bonus. Our guide to bonus wagering shows how to turn a multiple into the ringgit you would have to bet.
- 96M’s standard welcome offer is a 100% first-deposit bonus up to MYR 300 on slots, fast games and fishing (25x turnover) or on sports and e-sports (12x turnover); live casino gets 50% up to MYR 200 at 25x, and Mega888/918Kiss get 100% up to MYR 300 with a 6x winover.[224][220]
- The minimum qualifying deposit for the 100% welcome bonus is MYR 50, and it is only open to MYR members who have never joined a 96M promotion.[219]
- Turnover is calculated on deposit plus bonus: for example, a MYR 100 deposit with a MYR 100 slots bonus must be turned over MYR 5,000 (25x) before transfer or withdrawal.[220]
- The turnover must be completed within 30 days of the bonus being issued, or winnings from the bonus can be forfeited.[221]
- Exclusions on the 100% bonus include Joker Fishing and Game Play (slots tier), Esports Bull (sports tier), Sexy Baccarat, Game Play and AllBet (live casino tier); outright sports bets are not allowed, and void, tied or opposite-side bets do not count as turnover.[222]
- A separate 288% welcome bonus pays up to MYR 2,880 on slots and fast games, needs a MYR 100 minimum deposit and carries 35x turnover on deposit plus bonus, and it excludes Game Play, Joker, CQ9, Spadegaming, JDB Gaming, Jili, Fa Chai, YesGetRich and Lucky365.[223]
- Neither welcome-bonus T&C states a maximum bet size or a maximum cashout cap.[219][223]
- The homepage marketing text describes the 100% welcome bonus as carrying 10x wagering, which contradicts the 25x/12x turnover in the promotion’s own terms; the promotion terms should be treated as authoritative.[245][220]
Other promotions
- A 10% daily reload on slots, fast games and fishing pays up to MYR 338 with 8x turnover on deposit plus bonus, from a MYR 50 minimum transfer.[225]
- A 10% daily reload on sports and e-sports pays up to MYR 300 (8x turnover) and on live casino up to MYR 100 (12x turnover); a phone OTP check is required on the first live casino claim.[226]
- An instant cash rebate pays 0.3% to 1.0% of valid bets depending on product and VIP tier, has a MYR 1 minimum payout, no cap and no turnover requirement.[227]
- The referral programme pays from MYR 88 (referee deposits MYR 1,000 in 30 days) up to MYR 8,888 (MYR 1,000,000), with 5x turnover.[228]
- New members who deposit at least MYR 5,000 in crypto in their first 30 days can claim a 2% bonus up to MYR 688 with 8x turnover.[229]
- A weekly rescue bonus is paid on net losses from MYR 5,000, up to MYR 10,000 for the top VIP tier; VIP tiers named in the promotion terms are Rose Gold, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald and Royal.[230][227]
- The VIP page says the top Diamond tier gets a MYR 300,000 withdrawal limit and 30 transactions; note it uses Normal/Silver/Gold/Platinum/Diamond tier names, which differ from the tier names in the current promotion terms.[249]
Deposits and withdrawals
We made no deposit or withdrawal with 96M. How each method works, and why paying an agent’s personal account is risky, is in the guide to casino payments from Malaysia.
- The official FAQ lists deposits by local bank transfer, Help2Pay/EeziePay online banking and USDT cryptocurrency, for MYR and SGD accounts.[231][239]
- The FAQ says crypto deposits are accepted in Bitcoin and USDT on the ERC-20 network, processed in up to about 3 minutes.[236][235]
- The homepage also names Touch ’n Go eWallet (instant to 15 minutes), DuitNow (15-30 minutes), FPX bank transfer (30-60 minutes) and crypto (30-60 minutes) as payout options.[240]
- Withdrawals are paid by bank transfer, with a stated processing time of about 25 minutes before bank processing time.[232]
- 96M says it charges no deposit or withdrawal fees, but banks and e-wallets may add their own charges.[233]
- The homepage gives a first-deposit minimum of RM30, while the welcome and reload promotions require MYR 50 (MYR 100 for the 288% offer).[241][219][223]
Games and providers
- 96M’s Malaysian lobby covers sports, e-sports, live casino, slots, fishing, 4D, lottery, cockfighting and fast games.[244]
- Named providers include Evolution, Dream Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Big Gaming, Sexy Baccarat, Pretty Gaming, Playtech, SA Gaming, WM Casino, Microgaming, AllBet (live casino); Nextspin, Jili, Spadegaming, Fa Chai, PlayStar, Lucky365, CQ9, Joker, JDB, Habanero, Mega888, 918Kiss, Relax Gaming (slots); Saba Sports and CMD Sports (sportsbook); TF Gaming and Esports Bull (e-sports); Grand Dragon (4D); and WS168 (cockfight).[244][222]
App, support and account checks
App and mobile
- 96M promotes a ‘New 96M App’ on its download page with Android and iOS sections plus separate downloads for 918Kiss, Mega888, Joker, Gameplay and WM Casino.[247]
- The site also says the full platform runs in a mobile browser without an app, and the FAQ points players to a /m mobile site.[246][238]
Customer support
- The Malaysian site header offers LiveChat and a Telegram handle, en96m_support.[243]
- 96M states support is available 24 hours a day; homepage text says live chat, WhatsApp and email are offered in Bahasa Malaysia, English and Chinese.[250][242]
Account and identity checks
- Players must be 18 or over and confirm this at registration, providing full name, date of birth and contact number.[237][248]
- 96M may require valid photo ID and a debit/credit card to verify an account, and for withdrawals may ask for photo ID and a bank statement showing the account holder’s name.[248][234]
The legal position for Malaysian players
No online casino holds a Malaysian licence, whatever it holds elsewhere. In 2023 the Court of Appeal ruled that online gambling is an offence under the Common Gaming Houses Act 1953, and gaming in a public place carries a fine of up to RM5,000, up to six months in prison, or both.[28][21] An offshore licence also gives a Malaysian player no local regulator to complain to if a withdrawal is refused. Muslims are barred from all gambling under state Syariah law.[26] The guide to gambling law in Malaysia covers the detail.
We found no Malaysian court case or enforcement report naming 96M. That says nothing about whether playing is lawful; it only means no case has been reported.
What we could not confirm
- The operating company, because the terms page loads by script.
- Whether the stated limits and self-exclusion tools exist in the account area.
- Maximum bet while a bonus is active and any maximum cashout cap: not stated in the welcome-bonus T&Cs.
- Per-transaction deposit and withdrawal maximums for normal members: not published (only the Diamond tier’s MYR 300,000 is stated on the VIP page, and that page’s tier names do not match the current promotion terms).
- DuitNow, Touch ’n Go, FPX and ETH appear only in homepage marketing text, not in the official FAQ payment list (bank transfer, Help2Pay/EeziePay, USDT, BTC). The site’s cashier label file also names DuitNow/Touch ’n Go gateways and Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, RHB and AmBank, but that is not a published statement.
- WhatsApp and email support: claimed in homepage text, but the Malaysian site’s contact config lists only LiveChat and Telegram; an email (info@96m.com) appears only in the crypto privacy FAQ.
- Mobile app: the site both promotes a downloadable app and says no app download is required; the download method (APK link versus app store) could not be confirmed without clicking through.
Check it yourself
- Find the licence line in the footer or terms of the exact site you use, not a portal or a review site.
- Look the number and company up on the regulator’s own register: Curaçao, Anjouan and Tobique all publish one.
- Check whether the register lists the domain in your address bar. If it lists none, the licence cannot show it covers that site.
If you are worried about your own gambling, the help page lists free helplines that answer 24 hours a day.
Questions readers ask
Is 96M licensed?
It claims a Curaçao licence but gives no number or company, and no matching entry exists on the Curaçao or Anjouan register.

No. No online casino holds a Malaysian licence, and the Court of Appeal ruled in 2023 that online gambling is an offence under the Common Gaming Houses Act 1953.
How did 96M do on the licence checks?
It is in tier D, “Licence claimed, not found on a register”, and passes 2 of our six verification checks. Its place in the list is editorial; the check results are reported as we found them, whatever the position.
