No download required. Open q98 in any mobile browser — Chrome, Safari or Firefox — and the site automatically switches to a mobile-optimised layout. All features including JazzCash deposits, live cricket betting and slot games are fully available.
Installing the Android APK takes under two minutes. Follow these steps carefully — especially the one about allowing unknown sources.
Before downloading, create your free q98 account. The registration process takes under three minutes — you need a valid mobile number and an email address. Once registered, the APK download link becomes available in your account dashboard.
Since the q98 APK is downloaded directly rather than from the Google Play Store, you need to enable installation from unknown sources. Go to Settings → Security → Install Unknown Apps and toggle it on for your browser. On newer Android versions (10+) this setting appears as a per-app permission prompt when you tap the APK file.
Tap the Android download button on this page (you must be logged in). The APK file is approximately 28MB — on a standard Zong or Jazz 4G connection it downloads in under 30 seconds. Wait for the download to complete before proceeding.
Open your phone's notification shade and tap the downloaded file, or navigate to your Downloads folder and tap the q98 APK. Your phone will show an install confirmation screen. Tap Install and wait — the process takes about 10 seconds on most devices.
Once installed, tap the q98 icon on your home screen. Log in with the credentials you set during registration. Your account balance, bonuses and bet history are all synced automatically. Deposit via JazzCash or Easypaisa and you are ready to place your first PSL cricket bet or spin your first slot.
iOS installation uses a configuration profile rather than an APK. After registering and logging in through Safari on your iPhone or iPad, tap the iOS download button. Safari will prompt you to download a configuration profile. Go to Settings → General → VPN & Device Management, find the q98 profile and tap Install. Enter your device passcode if prompted. The q98 app icon will appear on your home screen within a few seconds. The profile is signed and verified — you will see a green trusted status in your device management settings.
When iOS asks you to "Trust" the developer profile, this is a standard system prompt for apps distributed outside the App Store. Tapping Trust confirms that you accept the profile from q98's signing certificate. This is a normal and expected step — the same process used by thousands of enterprise and gaming apps distributed directly to users in Pakistan and globally.
The app is not a stripped-down version of the website — it is the full q98 experience optimised for mobile screens and Pakistani mobile networks.
Bet on Pakistan Super League matches, T20 internationals and domestic cricket with in-play markets, live scoreboards and competitive PKR odds — all updated in real time during the match.
Hundreds of slot titles load smoothly on the app. Classic reels, video slots and jackpot games are all available. The touch controls are well-optimised — swiping feels natural on any screen size above 5 inches.
Join live Blackjack, Roulette, Baccarat and game show tables hosted by real dealers. The video stream is compressed for mobile without losing clarity — works well on standard 4G without buffering.
Deposit and withdraw in PKR directly through the app. JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, bank transfer and debit card payments are all supported. Most mobile wallet top-ups clear in under two minutes.
Get notified about new promotions, PSL match start times, deposit confirmations and bet settlement. Notifications are fully customisable — you can choose which alerts you want and turn off the ones you do not need.
Your VIP points, current tier status and all active promotions are visible in the app. Claim weekly bonuses, check cashback balances and opt into Free Spins Friday directly from the promotions tab inside the app.
On supported Android devices and all recent iPhones, you can log into q98 using fingerprint or Face ID. No need to type your password each session — secure and fast, especially handy when checking live match odds quickly.
Review your complete betting history, net profit/loss over time, most played games and cashback earned. The stats section gives you a clear picture of your activity so you can manage your budget sensibly across sessions.
Live chat support is accessible directly from within the app. Whether you have a question about a deposit, a bonus term or a technical issue with a game, the support team is available at all hours including during peak PSL match evenings.
Based on internal testing across common Pakistani mobile devices and networks including Jazz 4G, Zong and Telenor. Results reflect average performance on mid-range Android phones.
Using a dedicated mobile app rather than a browser makes a real practical difference when you are betting on a live PSL match and every second of odds movement counts. The q98 app holds a persistent connection so page reloads do not interrupt your live bet slip. When you are watching the match on one half of your screen and the app on the other, that stability matters.
For players in cities like Karachi, Lahore, Faisalabad or Islamabad who rely on mobile data rather than home broadband, the app's data efficiency is a genuine advantage. It is engineered to consume roughly 40% less data than the full browser version while maintaining the same live odds update frequency. On a standard Jazz or Ufone monthly data bundle, you can run several full PSL match sessions without burning through your allocation.
The offline mode is also worth mentioning — while you obviously cannot place bets without a connection, the app caches your account information, recent bet history and the game lobby so that navigating back into it after a brief connection drop does not require a full reload. Small details like this make the day-to-day experience noticeably smoother than the browser alternative.
Check whether your device meets the minimum requirements before downloading. The q98 app is designed to work on the majority of phones sold in Pakistan over the last five years.

When q98 first launched its mobile app for Pakistani players, the brief was straightforward: make it work properly on the phones people in Pakistan actually use. That sounds obvious, but a lot of international gaming platforms get this wrong — they build for flagship devices on fast European or North American broadband and then wonder why players in Karachi or Multan report slow loading and dropped connections. q98 took a different approach from the beginning, engineering the app around the realities of the Pakistani mobile market.
The Android APK is the primary version for most Pakistani users, simply because Android commands the overwhelming majority of the smartphone market here. Whether you are using a mid-range Samsung Galaxy, an Infinix, a Tecno or a Xiaomi Redmi — all popular choices for their price-to-performance ratio in the PKR price bracket most Pakistani buyers shop in — the q98 app installs cleanly and runs without stuttering on even the more modest hardware configurations.
The direct APK download model was a deliberate choice. Distributing through the Google Play Store involves a review process and policy restrictions that affect gaming apps in certain markets. By offering the APK directly, q98 can push updates faster, maintain full control over the feature set and ensure Pakistani players always have access to the latest version without depending on store approval cycles. The trade-off is the extra step of enabling unknown sources on your device — but as described in the installation guide above, this is a one-time setting change that takes about 30 seconds.
Security is handled seriously despite the direct distribution model. The APK is signed with a verified developer certificate that your Android device checks automatically during installation. If the file has been tampered with or modified in any way, the installation will fail. Always download the APK only from the official q98 website after logging into your account — do not install APK files from third-party sites or Telegram channels that claim to offer the q98 app, as these may be modified versions.
For cricket fans — and in Pakistan that covers a significant portion of the population — the app's cricket betting section is the highlight feature. During PSL season in particular, the in-play betting experience on the app is genuinely impressive. Markets update within seconds of each delivery, the live scoreboard is embedded directly in the bet interface so you do not have to switch apps, and the bet slip is quick to fill out even when you are watching the match and trying to place a bet before the next ball is bowled. The minimum stake on cricket bets is low enough that casual fans can participate without risking significant PKR, while the maximum stake limits are competitive enough for serious bettors.
The PKR payment integration through JazzCash and Easypaisa deserves separate mention because it is one of the most friction-free implementations in the market. The deposit flow involves four taps — select deposit method, enter amount, confirm mobile wallet number, approve the MPIN prompt on your JazzCash or Easypaisa app. That is it. The funds appear in your q98 account in under two minutes in the vast majority of cases. Withdrawals follow a similarly simple path back to your mobile wallet. For players used to international platforms that require credit card details and multi-step bank transfers, the simplicity of the PKR mobile wallet flow at q98 is a significant quality-of-life improvement.
The app is updated regularly — typically once every six to eight weeks for feature updates, and more frequently for minor bug fixes. Updates are delivered via an in-app notification rather than requiring you to revisit the download page. When an update is available, a banner appears at the top of the home screen with a one-tap install option. The update itself downloads in the background while you continue using the app, and you are only prompted to restart once the download is complete. On iOS, updates are even more seamless — the profile update process is handled silently without any action needed from the user in most cases.
Responsible gaming tools are built into the app as first-class features rather than afterthoughts buried in a terms and conditions page. From your profile settings you can set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits in PKR, activate session time reminders that alert you after a set period of continuous play, or initiate a self-exclusion period if you feel you need a break. The minimum age to use q98 is 18 — this is enforced at account creation and is a non-negotiable requirement. If you ever feel that your gambling activity is becoming difficult to manage, the app's responsible gaming section has practical tools and guidance to help you regain control.
