Can I use Dream11 outside India? Yes! Here is your master plan

I am currently an NRI and living in Singapore. I have been here for a few months now. I love fantasy sports and have been using Dream11 since 2017. The question of whether Dream11 is available outside India came up when I moved to Singapore, as Dream11 is only available in India and I could not access it. I have found out some ways to access and enjoy this app in Singapore or other countries like we used to in India. So let’s get started…

What is Dream11?

For those living under a rock, Dream11 is currently the world’s largest fantasy sports platform with over 220 million users playing fantasy cricket, football, kabaddi, basketball, hockey, volleyball, handball, rugby, futsal, American football and baseball. Dream11 is the flagship brand of Dream Sports, a leading Indian sports technology company, and has partnerships with several national and international sports organizations and cricketers. The main reason for its popularity is cricket and the cricket fan base in India, the world’s second most populous country.

Is Dream11 available outside India?

Of course, but before that, consider the following:

Legal Aspects of Using Dream11

According to Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution of India, games of skill where the player has to use his expertise, talent, knowledge and strategy to analyse, think and develop his skills to win are legal activities.
Winning is not just about luck, but also about judgment and analysis. As a result, fantasy cricket falls into the category of skill games where players have to use their expertise and knowledge of the sport to create a fantasy team.

In February 2020, the Rajasthan High Court dismissed a public interest litigation (PIL) filed against Dream11, stating that it was a game of skill and had nothing to do with betting or gambling offences. An appeal against this ruling was also dismissed by the Supreme Court of India.

In August 2021, the Supreme Court ruled that fantasy sports are legal because they involve considerable skill and judgment. The success of fantasy games depends on the knowledge, care and execution of the user. Consequently, the success of fantasy cricket is not dependent on chance.
Therefore, Dream11 is a legal business in India and does not fall under the Public Gaming Act, 1867. According to the Federation of Fantasy Sports of India (FIFS), India’s first and only self-regulatory sports gaming industry body, skill games are excluded from most definitions of gambling laws and therefore can be played legally.

Countries where skill games are illegal or severely restricted

Before moving or traveling to another country outside India and using the Dream11 app, make sure to check the list of countries where skill games fall under the gambling section.

How to deposit cash to Dream11 from outside India?

After successfully opening the dream11 app, the next big question is whether you can deposit money to your dream11 wallet from outside India. The answer is no. You cannot deposit money to your Dream11 wallet as you need to turn on the location while depositing.

Best Practices

The best way is to deposit money into your dream11 wallet while you are still in India and have not yet left for your new country.

Alternative ways to deposit cash into Dream11

The method I often use is to call a friend in India. You can share your credentials with me (only if it is someone you trust, like a friend or family member). And eventually, you can tell him to add cash to your wallet. When your friend logs in, you will automatically be logged out of Dream11 on your smartphone. This is because only one device can access your dream11 account at a time. Once the deposit is complete, you can log in again with your phone number and OTP.

conclusion

So, with the above-mentioned steps, you can use dream11 outside India. Also, consider the country you are in and its rules for skill games to avoid unnecessary problems. Don’t hesitate to try other VPN apps for the same task as per your convenience. If you have any more questions, check out the FAQs on this blog.
