The 78fb History — How We Built Bangladesh's Most Trusted Gaming Platform from the Ground Up

78fb did not appear overnight. The platform you use today is the result of years of deliberate decisions, honest feedback from Bangladeshi players, and a consistent commitment to building something that actually works for people here — not just a generic product copied from somewhere else. This page tells that story from the beginning.

Where It Started

The Problem That 78fb Was Built to Solve

Before 78fb existed, Bangladeshi players who wanted to enjoy online gaming had a frustrating experience. The platforms available were built for international audiences — they accepted payment methods that most people in Bangladesh did not have access to, their customer support operated in languages that were not helpful, and the games on offer had no connection to what local players actually enjoyed. Getting money in and out was the biggest problem. International cards, wire transfers, and e-wallets that required foreign bank accounts were the only options, and most players simply could not use them.

The founding team behind 78fb saw this gap clearly. They were not outsiders looking at Bangladesh as a market to enter — they were people who understood the local context, knew how people here managed money, and recognised that bKash and Nagad had already solved the mobile payment problem for millions of Bangladeshis. The question was why no gaming platform had built around those payment rails properly. 78fb was the answer to that question.

"We wanted to build a platform where a player in Dhaka or Chittagong could deposit, play, and withdraw using the same apps they already use every day — without needing anything else."

How 78fb Grew Into What It Is Today

The history of 78fb is not just a list of dates and features. It is a story about understanding what Bangladeshi players actually need and building toward that consistently over time.

1

Building the Payment Foundation First

The first decision the 78fb team made — and arguably the most important one — was to solve payments before anything else. Every other online gaming platform that had tried to operate in Bangladesh had treated payments as an afterthought, bolting on international options that most local players could not use. 78fb flipped that approach entirely.

The team spent the first several months of development working specifically on bKash integration. Not a surface-level connection, but a deep, reliable integration that could handle deposits and withdrawals at scale without errors or delays. When the platform launched, bKash worked the way players expected it to — instant deposits, fast withdrawals, no mysterious failures. That reliability built trust faster than any marketing campaign could have.

Nagad and Rocket followed as the platform grew, each added only after the team was confident the integration was solid enough to meet the same standard as bKash. The payment infrastructure at 78fb is not glamorous, but it is the foundation that everything else sits on — and it has been built carefully from day one.

Choosing Games That Bangladeshi Players Actually Enjoy

The second major decision was about the game library. 78fb did not simply license the most popular international titles and call it done. The team looked at what types of games resonated with players in Bangladesh — the formats, the pace, the level of skill involvement, the social element — and built the library around those preferences.

Fishing games emerged early as a clear favourite. Cannon Fishing, Mermaid Fishing, and Bingo Fishing all became consistently popular titles on 78fb because they combine accessible gameplay with genuine skill elements and the kind of session flexibility that suits how people in Bangladesh actually play — often on a phone, often in shorter sessions, often with a specific budget in mind. The platform leaned into this rather than trying to push players toward formats they were less interested in.

Slot games like Bikini Paradise and Aladdin were added as the library expanded, chosen for their RTP figures and bonus feature quality rather than just their visual appeal. Every game on 78fb has been through an evaluation process before it goes live — the team does not add titles just to inflate the library count.

The Android App and What It Changed

When 78fb launched its dedicated Android app in 2021, it changed how most players interacted with the platform. Before the app, players accessed 78fb through a mobile browser — which worked, but had limitations. Load times were longer, animations were less smooth, and the touch controls for games like Cannon Fishing were not as responsive as they needed to be for a good experience.

The app addressed all of those issues. It was built specifically for the Android devices most commonly used in Bangladesh, optimised for the data connection speeds typical in Dhaka and other major cities, and designed to run the game library smoothly even on mid-range hardware. The difference in experience was noticeable immediately, and app adoption grew quickly after launch.

The app also made it easier for 78fb to push updates and improvements to players without requiring them to do anything — the app updates automatically, so players always have the latest version without needing to think about it. This has been important for security updates in particular, where getting the latest version out to players quickly matters.

4

Fair Play and the RNG Certification Process

One of the most common concerns players have about online gaming platforms is whether the games are actually fair. 78fb took this seriously from the beginning, but formalised its approach in 2022 with independent RNG certification for every game in the library. The certification is carried out by a third-party auditing body and covers the random number generation process that determines the outcome of every spin, every fish catch, and every card draw on the platform.

The decision to make the certification transparent — allowing players to verify the audit status of any game — was deliberate. 78fb does not ask players to simply trust that the games are fair. The evidence is available. This approach has been one of the factors that distinguishes 78fb from less reputable platforms that operate in the same space without any independent verification of their game outcomes.

The RTP figures published for each game on 78fb are the certified figures from the audit process, not marketing estimates. When 78fb says Bikini Paradise has a 96.8% RTP, that number comes from an independent audit, not from the game developer's promotional materials.

5

Responsible Gaming as a Core Commitment

As 78fb grew, the team recognised that a platform with hundreds of thousands of players has a responsibility that goes beyond just providing good games and fast payments. The responsible gaming framework introduced in 2023 was not a response to external pressure — it was a decision the team made because they believed it was the right thing to do for the players who use 78fb every day.

The tools available to players include deposit limits that can be set at the account level, session time reminders that appear after extended play periods, and a self-exclusion option for players who feel they need a break from the platform. These tools are accessible from the account settings and can be activated without contacting support. 78fb does not make it difficult to use responsible gaming features — they are built into the platform as standard options, not hidden in a corner of the settings menu.

The platform also maintains a dedicated responsible gaming page with information about recognising problematic gambling patterns and resources for players who need support. 78fb takes the position that a player who uses the platform responsibly and within their means is a better outcome for everyone than a player who overextends and has a negative experience.

Platform Milestones

What Makes 78fb Different from the Start

These are not features that were added later to keep up with competitors. They were part of the 78fb approach from the beginning.

Local Payments from Day One

bKash integration was not an afterthought at 78fb — it was the first thing built. The platform launched with working bKash deposits and withdrawals before it launched with anything else. That priority has never changed.

Independent RNG Certification

Every game on 78fb is independently audited. The certification is not a one-time event — it is an ongoing process that covers every new title added to the library. Players can verify the status of any game at any time.

Fast Withdrawals as Standard

78fb has never treated fast withdrawals as a premium feature. From the beginning, the platform was built to process withdrawal requests quickly. The current average of under five minutes for standard requests reflects years of infrastructure investment.

Purpose-Built Android App

The 78fb Android app was built for the devices and connections most common in Bangladesh — not adapted from a desktop platform. Performance on mid-range Android hardware and standard 4G connections was a design requirement, not an afterthought.

24/7 Customer Support

78fb moved to round-the-clock customer support in 2021 and has maintained it since. The support team is trained specifically on the 78fb platform and payment methods — not a generic outsourced team reading from a script.

Responsible Gaming Tools

Deposit limits, session reminders, and self-exclusion are built into the 78fb platform as standard features. They are easy to find and easy to use — because 78fb believes responsible gaming tools should be accessible, not buried.

Core Values

The Principles That Have Guided 78fb Since the Beginning

These are not values written for a marketing page. They are the principles that have shaped every significant decision 78fb has made since the platform was founded.

Local First

78fb was built for Bangladesh, not adapted for it. Every decision — from payment methods to game selection to app performance targets — starts with the question of what works best for players in Bangladesh specifically.

Transparency

78fb publishes certified RTP figures, makes RNG audit status verifiable, and does not hide fees or conditions in small print. Players deserve to know exactly what they are getting when they play on 78fb.

Continuous Improvement

The 78fb platform today is significantly better than the 78fb platform of 2019. That improvement has come from listening to player feedback, investing in infrastructure, and being willing to rebuild things that were not working well enough.

Player Responsibility

78fb takes its responsibility to players seriously. That means providing good games and fast payments, but it also means providing the tools players need to stay in control of their gaming and making those tools genuinely easy to use.

FAQ

Questions About 78fb History

Common questions from players who want to understand more about where 78fb came from and how the platform has developed over time.

Full FAQ Page

78fb was founded in 2019. The platform launched with a focus on bKash integration and a small initial game library, and has grown steadily since then. By 2025, 78fb has over 500,000 registered players and a game library of more than 50 titles.

The founding team behind 78fb recognised that existing online gaming platforms were not built with Bangladeshi players in mind. Payment methods, game selection, and platform performance were all designed for international audiences. 78fb was built from scratch to address those gaps — starting with bKash integration and building outward from there.

Nagad was added in 2020, following the successful launch of bKash integration. Rocket was added in 2021 alongside the launch of the 78fb Android app. Both were added only after the team was confident the integration met the same reliability standard as the original bKash implementation.

Yes. 78fb completed independent RNG certification for all games on the platform in 2022, and the certification process covers every new title added since then. The audit is carried out by a third-party body and the results are verifiable. The RTP figures published for each game on 78fb come from the certified audit, not from developer estimates.

The 78fb Android app launched in 2021. It was built specifically for the Android devices and data connection speeds most common in Bangladesh, and delivered a noticeably better experience than the mobile browser version for most players. The app updates automatically, so players always have the latest version without needing to manually reinstall.

78fb introduced its responsible gaming framework in 2023. The tools available to players include deposit limits that can be set at the account level, session time reminders that appear after extended play periods, and a self-exclusion option for players who need a break from the platform. All tools are accessible from the account settings without needing to contact support.

As of 2025, 78fb has over 500,000 registered players. The platform reached 100,000 registered players in 2021 and 300,000 in 2023, with growth accelerating following the platform redesign completed in 2024. Players are located across Bangladesh, with the largest concentrations in Dhaka, Chittagong, and Sylhet.
