Skrill at Nine
Skrill is an e-wallet: an online account that holds money and pays merchants without sharing your card or bank details with them. Casinos value it because payments are confirmed electronically; players use it to keep gambling transactions separate from their main bank account. This page explains deposits and withdrawals with Skrill and the points that cause most questions.
The set of methods and limits depend on the account — check the cashier.
Before you start
Open and verify your Skrill account with the wallet provider first. Wallets have their own verification and their own limits, and an unverified wallet may not be able to receive payouts. Use the same e-mail address and name as in your casino account where possible; mismatches slow down checks.
Deposit with Skrill
- Choose Skrill in the cashier and enter the amount in your currency.
- You are redirected to Skrill — log in and approve the payment.
- Return to the casino; the balance should update once Skrill confirms.
If your wallet balance is in a different currency, Skrill converts it at its own rate. The wallet may also charge for loading money into it or for conversion; those are the wallet's fees, published by the provider.
Withdrawal to Skrill
If you deposited with Skrill, withdrawals usually go back to the same wallet. After the casino approves the request, the money is credited to the wallet, and from there you can move it to your bank under the wallet's own rules. Before the first payout, the operator may ask for a screenshot of the wallet page showing your name and account e-mail.
Bonus exclusions
Some casino bonus terms exclude e-wallet deposits from qualifying for promotions. This is one of the most common surprises with Skrill. If you plan to claim a bonus, read the qualifying-deposit clause before paying.
A separate wallet as a budget tool
Because an e-wallet is separate from your main account, it can serve as a gambling budget: load a fixed amount, and when the wallet is empty, the session is over. That works best when you also match the game to the amount. A modest wallet balance on a slot with a costly bonus buy can disappear in a few purchases; the same balance at a lower stake on a game whose paytable spreads wins more evenly lasts longer. The info panel shows the bet range and, where the studio publishes it, the volatility.
Security
Turn on two-factor authentication in the wallet, and be wary of e-mails asking you to log in through a link. A message that claims to be from the wallet and asks you to confirm a casino payout by entering your password is a typical phishing attempt; open the wallet app or site directly instead.
