How do I link my card to Zapper for a Betfred deposit?

Short Answer: You link your card inside the Zapper app itself, not on the Betfred website. Open the Zapper app, go to the menu, select 'Payment methods', and enter your debit or credit card details. Once the card is verified, it will be available when you choose Zapper as your Betfred deposit method.

Betfred's deposit page confirms that you must download the Zapper app and link a card before you can use it to fund your account.

1. Step-by-Step Card Linking in Zapper

According to Zapper's official setup guide, open the Zapper app on your phone and tap the menu icon in the top corner. Select 'Payment methods' and choose the card option. Enter your debit or credit card details, then tap 'Next'. Zapper will process a small verification charge (typically around R2) which is refunded immediately to confirm the card is active and valid [citation:5]. Once this is approved, your card is linked and ready for payments.

2. Linking a Bank Account Instead

If you prefer not to link a card, Zapper also allows you to link a bank account directly. In the same 'Payment methods' menu, select the bank account option, choose your bank from the list, and log in with your online banking credentials to authorise the link [citation:5]. However, for a Betfred deposit, the standard Zapper flow is card-based, so the card option is the most direct route.
