Tajikistan’s Babilon-Mobile is being used as a casino payment rail, with deposits from Sberbank Online and VTB

Babilon-Mobile, a Tajik mobile operator, is being used to top up online casino balances from Russia through Sberbank Online and VTB. The flow matters because it turns a standard mobile payment route into a casino funding channel, with scale, short-lived payment details, and multiple brands already plugged into the same setup.

1. According to the source, the operator sees from 3,000 to 10,000 payment credentials per day, all tied to online casino top-ups via mobile transfer. The activity is described as direct balance replenishment from Russia through Sberbank Online and VTB.
2. The main volume is coming from Melbet, which accounts for up to 98% of Babilon’s flow. Individual top-ups reach 1,000 rubles, so this is not just traffic noise; it is a working funding path for casino deposits.
3. Other brands are already connected to the same route: Banda, Kush, Fresh, and 1xBet. Banda and Kush use direct.p2payment.com, Fresh uses g5e13.page.polygon-pay.net, and 1xBet uses checkout.1prc.com.
4. Babilon-Mobile had already appeared on a separate cluster of casinos: Friends, Selector, Turbo, Bounty, Bitzamo, Blitz, and Brillx. In that setup, payments were processed through pay.psp-payment.io.
5. The source says the сетка is still expanding, and that credentials from different dates behave differently: numbers from today are valid, while older ones are already dead. Their lifespan is described as 2-3 days before the operator blocks them, or the owner disables and/or replaces them.

For PSPs, acquirers, and bank partners, the useful takeaway is not the naming of the casino brands; it is the mechanism. A mobile operator payment route in Tajikistan is functioning as a short-lived, high-turnover on-ramp for casino deposits from Russian banks, which means the operational window is narrow but the flow is active while it lasts.
