Exchange22 APK download: install the latest version on Android

Android APK install: step-by-step

The Exchange22 app is distributed as a signed APK because the Play Store policy in India restricts real-money fantasy apps in some categories. Installing the official APK is safe — the file is signed with a 256-bit key and the package name matches the official Exchange22 build. Avoid downloading from third-party mirrors.

1. Tap the download button on this page. The APK starts downloading to your Downloads folder.
2. Allow installs from this source. When prompted, enable Install Unknown Apps for your browser or file manager.
3. Open the APK and tap Install. The install takes 10–20 seconds on most phones.
4. Open Exchange22 and tap Sign Up. Enter your mobile number; verify with the OTP.
5. Complete KYC. PAN + Aadhaar takes 2–5 minutes inside the app.

iOS install on iPhone

iOS users install Exchange22 via the official progressive web app (PWA). The PWA installs as a thin wrapper, gives you full-screen access, and supports push notifications.

1. Open the Exchange22 site in Safari. Chrome on iOS works too, but Safari is recommended for the install prompt.
2. Tap the Share button and choose Add to Home Screen. Confirm the name Exchange22.
3. Open the new icon from your home screen. The app runs full-screen, identical to a native build.
4. Sign up with your phone number. Use the same number as your UPI account to avoid withdrawal friction.
5. Complete KYC. PAN + Aadhaar upload takes 2–5 minutes.

Sign-up walkthrough

Sign-up on Exchange22 takes under three minutes. You need a working mobile number, a PAN card and an Aadhaar number for KYC. The same number is used for UPI deposits and withdrawals.

What you'll enter

• Mobile number: the OTP-verified phone you use for UPI.
• Email: optional but recommended for contest alerts.
• Display name: shown on contest leaderboards; choose carefully, it's permanent.
• State: used to validate paid entry. Some states restrict fantasy cricket.
• Referral code (optional): paste EXCH22 or a friend's code here.

If your state is restricted, the app blocks paid contest entry but still allows you to read news and view squads. See our responsible play page for the full state list.

KYC steps: PAN + Aadhaar

Exchange22 follows the standard Indian fantasy KYC flow. You need your PAN card, your Aadhaar number, and a clear selfie. KYC unlocks withdrawals — without it, you can play practice contests but cannot cash out winnings.

1. Open Profile → KYC. The KYC wizard opens inside the app.
2. Enter PAN. The app validates the PAN against the income-tax database in real time.
3. Enter Aadhaar. You'll receive an OTP on the Aadhaar-linked mobile number.
4. Take a live selfie. The app matches the selfie to the Aadhaar photo.
5. Wait for approval. Most KYC reviews complete within 30 minutes during business hours.
