Paying at casinos with Visa or Mastercard

Bank cards are the most familiar way to deposit. Deposits are usually instant, but withdrawals to a card are not supported everywhere.

Depositing with a card

Enter the card details in the cashier and confirm the payment with your bank's 3-D Secure check. The deposit is normally credited immediately.

What 3-D Secure does

An extra check by your bank

You confirm the payment in your banking app or with a code, so a card number alone is not enough to pay.

Why it is used in Europe

EU payment rules require strong customer authentication for most online card payments.

If confirmation fails

The payment is declined and nothing is charged. Try again or ask your bank why the check failed.

Withdrawals and fees

Some casinos can pay back to the card, others require a different withdrawal method. If the casino's currency differs from your card's currency, your bank may charge a conversion fee. Some banks block gambling transactions altogether.

Checklist

  • Use a card in your own name.
  • Check which currency the payment is charged in.
  • Find out in advance which withdrawal methods are available.
  • Keep the payment receipt until the deposit is credited.

Questions and answers

Why was my card payment declined?

Common reasons are a bank block on gambling transactions, a failed 3-D Secure check or a card limit.

Can I always withdraw to my card?

No. It depends on the casino and the card issuer. The cashier shows the methods available for your account.
