Bitcoin: paying in and out with BTC
Bitcoin payments work differently from cards and wallets: there is no bank in the middle, a transaction cannot be reversed and its value moves with the market. Whether Bitcoin is offered at all depends on the operator and on the rules where you live.
Availability and limits depend on the operator and your account — check the cashier.
Making a Bitcoin deposit
- Choose Bitcoin in the cashier. A deposit address, often with a QR code, is shown for your account.
- Send BTC from your own wallet to that exact address. Copy and paste it; never type it by hand.
- Wait for the network confirmations the cashier requires. Only then is the deposit credited.
The amount credited may be converted to your account currency at the rate used by the operator at that moment.
Withdrawing Bitcoin
To withdraw, enter the address of a wallet you control and request the amount. After approval, the operator broadcasts the transaction; the network fee is either deducted or charged as the cashier explains. Double-check the address: a payment sent to a wrong address cannot be recovered.
Price movement
Between deposit and withdrawal, the value of Bitcoin can rise or fall. If your account is held in a regular currency, your balance is fixed but the BTC you receive later may be worth more or less. If it is held in BTC, the balance itself moves with the market. Either way, the price is a second source of risk on top of your bets.
Keeping records
Every Bitcoin transaction has a transaction ID visible on the public blockchain. Save it for each deposit and withdrawal. If a payment does not appear in your balance or wallet, that ID lets support find it quickly. Depending on where you live, crypto transactions may also have tax implications; a local adviser can tell you what applies.
Exchange wallets versus your own wallet
Some exchanges do not allow transfers to or from gambling services, or may ask questions about them. A personal wallet where you control the keys avoids that issue but makes you fully responsible for security. Whichever you use, keep the withdrawal address saved in your account up to date.
