Payments & apps
An exchange holds a balance, and the route money takes into and out of that balance shapes the whole experience. This section follows funds from account to bet slip and back.
Bank transfer and Trustly are discussed first, then PayPal, Skrill, Neteller and paysafecard, then debit cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Quick withdrawals and betting apps come next, with crypto as a topic and the sites that accept deposits of £1, £5 or £10 at the end.
Gambling on credit cards has been banned since 14 April 2020. Identity has to be verified before any first deposit is taken. A check of public records follows when net deposits pass £150 inside a rolling 30 days. The punter owes no tax on betting winnings.
