What Hot Pot Offers on mangabuddy
Hot Pot is a dice-based game where three dice roll in a live studio, and you predict the result before the roll completes. On mangabuddy, you choose a specific total (ranging from 3 to 18 depending on the three dice), or you can select broader categories like "high" or "low", "even" or "odd". Each prediction type has its own odds, displayed clearly in the app before you place your stake.
Rounds run continuously throughout the day. When a round opens, you have a short window—usually 30 to 60 seconds—to place your entry. Once that window closes, the dice roll live on camera, the result is locked instantly, and any matching predictions in your account are credited within seconds. There's no manual review; the outcome is automatic and final.
The appeal of Hot Pot on mangabuddy is speed. Unlike sports betting, where you wait hours for a match to finish, or table games, where a hand takes minutes to resolve, Hot Pot rounds complete in under two minutes. This makes it ideal for short breaks or while travelling on public transport in Jakarta, Surabaya, or Bandung.
Mobile App vs. Browser Experience
Most mangabuddy users play Hot Pot on the Android app, which is optimized for fast, responsive gameplay. You can download it directly from our website, and login is a single tap if you've saved your credentials. The app also includes push notifications, so you can get alerts when a new Hot Pot round is about to open, even if you've closed the app.
If you prefer iOS or do not want to install an app, our browser version works seamlessly on Safari and Chrome. The experience is nearly identical to the app—same draw speed, same odds, same instant credit. The only practical difference is that browser notifications may not work as reliably, so you'll need to check the app or website manually for upcoming rounds.

Funding Your Hot Pot Account
Before your first Hot Pot entry, you need a funded account on mangabuddy. Tap the Deposit button, choose your preferred payment method, and complete the transfer. We support five major e-wallet channels—DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and online payment—as well as direct bank transfers via e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, and e-wallet virtual accounts.
Most e-wallet deposits confirm within a minute or two. Bank transfers may take a few minutes longer, depending on your bank's processing speed. Once your deposit clears, the balance appears in your Hot Pot lobby, and you can place an entry in the next available round.
How Odds and Payouts Work
Hot Pot odds are based on probability. A prediction like "the total is 11" has moderate probability (several dice combinations add to 11), so the payout is moderate—typically 5 to 8 times your stake. A rare prediction like "the total is exactly 3" (only one way: three ones) pays much higher, sometimes 60 times or more. A broad prediction like "high" (total 11 or above) is more likely to hit, so the payout is smaller—often 2 to 3 times your stake.
Every odds multiplier is displayed in the Hot Pot lobby before you confirm. There are no surprises. If you place a 50,000-unit stake on an entry with a 5× multiplier and you win, you receive 250,000 units (your original stake plus 200,000 in profit). Your balance updates instantly, and that amount is available for withdrawal or your next Hot Pot round.
Draw Schedules and Peak Hours
Hot Pot draws run all day, from early morning through late evening. During peak hours—lunch time, evening commute, and night—rounds may be more frequent. During off-peak hours, there may be longer gaps between draws. We display the next scheduled draw time in the app, so you always know when the next opportunity is coming.
On major holidays like Idul Fitri, Idul Adha, and Imlek, draw schedules may adjust. We announce any changes in advance through push notifications and on our website. During Liga 1 or Piala AFF match days, we sometimes run special Hot Pot windows aligned with match kickoff times, giving players a way to play between games.

Withdrawing Your Hot Pot Winnings
When you're ready to cash out your Hot Pot winnings, open the Withdraw menu on mangabuddy. Select the amount and the payment method—you can withdraw to the same e-wallet or bank account you used to deposit. The system generates a withdrawal request, which enters a standard review queue. Once our verification window clears, the funds are sent back to your chosen payment account within the standard timeframe.
Your first withdrawal may trigger a KYC (Know Your Customer) check, where we confirm your identity and linked bank account. This is a one-time process. Subsequent withdrawals are faster because we've already verified your details. If you have questions about a withdrawal in progress, our customer support team can look up your request using your account number and provide an update.
