If you searched for a FairPlay cricket ID, you are almost certainly comparing providers rather than looking for us. That is fine — this page is a comparison, written by a competitor, and we will say plainly which parts of it are our opinion and which are things you can check yourself.
We run Readdy Anna Cricket. We are not FairPlay and have no connection to them. What we can usefully offer is the thing brand pages almost never do: an explanation of what “fair” actually means mechanically in betting and casino play, so you can evaluate any provider — them, us, or anyone else — instead of taking a marketing word at face value.
Why this page exists
Search a competitor’s name and you get their own pages, a stack of affiliate reviews paid per signup, and very little that is straight. We would rather write the honest version and let you decide.
So, the ground rules for what follows. We make no factual claims about FairPlay — not about their licensing, their ownership, their payout record or their safety. We do not know those things to a standard we would be willing to publish, and inventing them is how most pages on this topic get written. What we will do is explain the mechanics you can verify for yourself, and describe our own service in terms you can hold us to.
‘Fair play’ is a generic phrase before it is a brand name
This is worth separating out, because it causes genuine confusion in search.
“Fair play” is ordinary English. It appears in sports coverage, in tournament rules, in the names of campaigns and initiatives, and in the everyday sense of playing by the rules. It is also used as a brand name in the betting sector, which means a search for it returns a mixture of the brand and the plain-English usage.
The practical consequence: a name containing a common phrase is a weak identifier. If you are trying to reach a specific operator, the name alone will not get you there reliably, and neither will a search result. The exact domain is the only thing that identifies a site, which matters more than it sounds — and we come back to it below.
What ‘fair’ actually means, mechanically
Here is the part that is genuinely useful regardless of which provider you choose. Fairness in betting and casino play is not a vibe; it is a set of specific, checkable mechanisms.
| What people mean by ‘fair’ | What it actually refers to | Can you check it? |
|---|---|---|
| The games are not rigged | Certified RNG software tested by independent labs | Partly — look for named game studios |
| The odds are honest | The margin built into the price | Yes — convert the odds to implied probability |
| The casino games pay properly | The published RTP and house edge | Yes — the figures are published |
| The result was not altered | Provably fair hashing, in crash games | Yes — you can verify it yourself |
| They will pay me out | Withdrawal handling and terms | Only by testing it — start small |
Four of those five you can check without trusting anyone. We have written them up properly: our house edge and RTP guide explains the numbers, and RNG and fairness explained covers certification and provably fair systems.
The fifth — whether you actually get paid — is the one that matters most and the only one no badge, certificate or brand name can settle for you. It is behavioural, not technical, and the only way to learn it is to test it while the amounts are small.
The margin: the fairness question nobody asks
Every price you are offered has a margin built in. It is the single most concrete measure of how a provider treats you, and almost nobody checks it.
Convert the odds to implied probability — divide 100 by decimal odds — and add up both sides of a two-way market. A perfectly fair market would total 100%. Real markets total more, and the excess is the margin.
- A two-way market totalling 102% carries a 2% margin — tight.
- A market totalling 107% carries a 7% margin — expensive.
- The difference compounds across every bet you place, all season.
- Exchange-style markets typically carry a smaller built-in margin, with commission charged separately instead.
- You can calculate this in about fifteen seconds, on any provider, without asking anyone’s permission.
If you want one test of whether a provider is treating you fairly, this is a better one than any claim on any homepage — because it is arithmetic you perform yourself on numbers they have published. Our guide to reading odds works through it step by step.
Two different models, often confused
A lot of comparison confusion comes from treating two quite different things as the same. They are not.
| Direct operator platform | ID provider (what we are) | |
|---|---|---|
| How you get access | Sign up on their site yourself | We open the account and hand you the login |
| Deposits and withdrawals | Handled on-platform by you | Handled through us, over WhatsApp |
| Who you talk to | A support desk or ticket system | A person you already have a chat history with |
| Verification | You complete it on the platform | We handle it as part of setup |
| Best suited to | People comfortable doing it all themselves | People who want the admin handled |
Neither model is better in the abstract, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. If you are comfortable managing everything yourself, a direct platform is a perfectly sensible choice and you do not need us. The ID provider model exists because a large number of people would rather deal with a person over WhatsApp than a ticket queue, particularly around deposits and withdrawals.
How to check any provider yourself
This applies to us as much as to anyone. If we cannot survive it, we do not deserve your money.
- Confirm the exact domain before you do anything else. Brand names with common words attract lookalikes.
- Message support before depositing. Ask something specific. How they answer when you are not yet a customer tells you a great deal.
- Deposit small and withdraw quickly. Test the payout path before any real balance exists.
- Read the withdrawal terms first, not when you are trying to cash out.
- Check the margin on a market you understand, using the method above.
- Treat any fee demanded to release your balance as final. It is never legitimate, and paying it never works.
Our post on how to spot a fake provider goes through the warning signs in detail. It is written to be used on any provider, including us.
What we offer, in plain terms
So you can compare like for like, here is our side without decoration:
- WhatsApp-based setup — you message us, we open the account, you get the login. Usually a matter of minutes.
- Cricket first, plus football, tennis, kabaddi and casino, because that is what our players actually ask for.
- A person handles deposits and withdrawals, in the same chat, rather than a ticket system.
- No app to sideload. It runs in your browser — we explain why on our betting app page.
- Operating since 2018 under one brand, spelled with the double D.
- Limits and self-exclusion on request, without argument, through the same chat.
And what we do not offer, since comparison pages that only list positives are worthless: we have no app, we are not a licensed international sportsbook, and we do not run our own games. If those things matter to you, a direct platform is the better fit and we would rather say so.
Where we think we are genuinely better
Two things, honestly stated.
The support model. When something goes wrong — a withdrawal is slow, a login stops working, a market settles oddly — you message the same chat you have always used and a person answers. There is no ticket number and no queue. For a lot of people that single difference outweighs everything else, and for others it is irrelevant.
We write this stuff down. The pages on this site explaining house edge, RTP, RNG certification and how to spot a fake provider are not marketing. They tell you things that are mildly against our own interest — that the edge always favours the house, that no system beats it, that you should test us with a small withdrawal before trusting us. A provider willing to publish that is telling you something about how they intend to operate.
Who should choose what
| If you… | Then |
|---|---|
| Want to manage everything yourself | A direct platform suits you better than we do |
| Prefer WhatsApp to a ticket system | The ID provider model is built for you |
| Are mainly here for cricket | That is our centre of gravity |
| Want a polished native app | We do not have one — be aware of that |
| Are new and want the setup handled | This is the case we are strongest in |
| Care most about the tightest margin | Check it yourself with the method above |
The honest summary
We are not going to tell you FairPlay is bad, because we do not have the facts to say that and we are not going to invent them. What we will say is that a brand name is not evidence of anything — not theirs, and not ours.
Fairness is checkable. Convert the odds and measure the margin. Look at published RTP figures. Check whether game studios are named. Test the withdrawal path with a small amount before it matters. Do that on every provider you are considering, and you will learn more in an afternoon than a month of reading review sites. If you want to see how we handle setup, our how it works page walks through it. We have written the same kind of comparison for Cricketidwapp, Reddybook, Sky Exchange and Lotus365.
Switching from FairPlay? Test the alternative first
The mistake people make when moving between providers is moving everything at once. Whoever you are considering — us included — a short test costs almost nothing and tells you more than any amount of reading.
- Ask support a specific question before depositing anything, and judge the answer rather than the response time.
- Deposit a small amount — the smallest that lets you use the account normally.
- Withdraw a portion quickly, before any meaningful balance exists.
- Check what verification is asked for and when it is asked for.
- Measure the margin on a market you understand and compare it like for like.
- Only then move the rest, if it passed.
Step three is the one people skip and the one that matters. A provider’s behaviour when you take money out is the single most informative thing about them, and it is far cheaper to learn early than late. Our post on how to spot a fake provider covers the warning signs in full.
Run that on us as readily as on anyone. We would rather be tested than trusted.
Withdrawals: where the real problems live
If you take one thing from this page, take this. Across this entire sector, almost every serious problem happens at the withdrawal stage, not in the games and not in the odds. The games are usually certified; the risk is whether money comes back out.
| Signal | What it means |
|---|---|
| A fee demanded to release your balance | Never legitimate under any circumstances |
| Terms that appear only at cash-out | Conditions invented after you won |
| Repeated re-verification with no explanation | A delay tactic, not a compliance step |
| Pressure to deposit again to ‘unlock’ a withdrawal | A demand dressed as a policy |
| Support responsive before, silent after | The single most common pattern |
| Payment details that change every time | Makes tracing and recovery harder |
Every row concerns money leaving. That is why we keep telling people to test the exit before it matters — deposit small, withdraw quickly, and learn how a provider behaves while the amount is trivial.
Our how to spot a fake provider goes through this in detail, and our KYC verification guide explains which verification requests are normal and which are not.
How to get an ID with us, step by step
For comparison, here is our own process end to end. We are describing only what we do — we cannot speak for how anyone else handles it.
- Message us on WhatsApp. No form, no email chain, no account to create first.
- Tell us what you want to bet on — cricket, football, tennis, kabaddi, casino, or a mix.
- We open the account and send you the username and password directly in that chat.
- Verification is handled as part of setup, so it is not sprung on you at your first withdrawal.
- You deposit through the same chat, and withdraw the same way.
- The chat stays open. When something goes wrong later, you message the same place.
It usually takes a few minutes. The part that matters is the last step rather than the first: setup is easy everywhere, and what actually differs between providers is who answers three months later. Our how it works page covers the process in more detail.
One thing we will say plainly: do not judge us on how fast the setup is. Judge us on a small withdrawal taken early. That is the test that means something.
