Withdrawal FAQ's

Answers to your questions

Are There Fees Applied to Cashing Out?

Many of the most popular bookmakers do not apply any fees to withdrawals made via the most common withdrawal methods. For withdrawals by debit card, for instance, basically none of the best known bookmakers charge any fees. Where fees can be applied, however, is if unusual withdrawal methods such as wire transfers are requested for relatively small amounts of money.

How Long Does Withdrawing Take?

Once a customer has complete the actual withdrawal process which takes just a couple of minutes, the amount of time they will have to wait until their funds are fully available to them will differ according to their withdrawal method. In general, e-wallet withdrawal methods such as Paypal or Neteller will see funds clear within 24 hours. Debit or credit card withdrawals, meanwhile, will often take anywhere from 1-5 working days, whilst bank or wire transfers can take even longer still.

Is There a Minimum Withdrawal Amount?

Much like minimum bet amounts, the answer to this does vary from bookmaker to bookmaker. Largely, however, minimum withdrawal amounts for the most common withdrawal methods are in line with the corresponding minimum deposit amounts – being around £5 – £10.

Is There a Maximum Withdrawal Amount?

Similarly to minimum withdrawals, maximum withdrawals also tend to differ according to the individual bookmaker in question. Once again, however, each withdrawal method’s maximum amount tends to match the maximum possible deposit amount for that method. In the case of the most popular methods, therefore, this tends to be in the tens of thousands of pounds.
