Payment methods: bank cards, PayPal, Skrill, cryptocurrencies
1) Bank cards (Visa/Mastercard)
Where applicable: deposits from almost all major licensed brands; withdrawal - to a confirmed card or through a bank account.
Timing: deposits instantly; withdrawal - from several hours to 1-3 working days (after verification).
Commissions: usually from the operator 0%; possible bank/issuer fees.
Limits: Based on account status, transaction history, and RG limits (daily/weekly).
Pros: fast, familiar, high level of protection chargeback/3-D Secure.
Cons: some banks may have internal filters based on MCC codes; sometimes they ask for additional confirmation of identity.
Tip: Link one personal card and complete full verification - this speeds up payments and reduces the risk of compliance checks.
2) E-wallets: PayPal and Skrill
Where applicable: deposits and withdrawals from many operators; PayPal - more often in betting/casino, Skrill - is popular with players who combine slots and live games.
Timing: deposits are instantaneous; output - from minutes/hours to 24-48 hours (after KYC).
Commissions: usually zero for the operator; possible fees of the wallet itself when exchanging currencies or transfers.
Limits: higher than on cards for verified e-wallet accounts.
Pros: payment speed, convenient "layer" between the bank and the operator, flexible transaction control.
Cons: strict rules of wallets (freeze when breaking ToS), sometimes - restrictions on bonuses when using e-wallet for the first deposit (depends on the operator).
Tip: immediately confirm e-wallet and related e-mail; keep the name on the wallet strictly identical to the account with the operator.
3) Bank transfers (SEPA/local)
Where applicable: deposits/withdrawals from all licensed companies as a "basic" channel.
Terms: deposit - from instant (through instant banking) to 1 working day; withdrawal - usually 1-3 working days.
Commissions: usually absent from the operator's side; Bank fees are possible for international transfers.
Limits: highest among standard methods; convenient for large sums and corporate players.
Pros: reliability, predictability, compatibility with documentary confirmation of the source of funds.
Cons: slower cards/wallets; sometimes the purpose of payment and the accuracy of the details are required.
Tip: use the same bank account from which you replenished - this speeds up compliance checks and reduces the likelihood of requesting additional documents.
4) Cryptocurrencies (limited)
Status and availability: support depends on the operator and its payment providers; not all licensed brands accept crypto assets. If there is support, it is more often implemented through legal custodial providers/exchange gateways, with mandatory KYC identification.
Deadlines: input - quickly after network confirmations and AML checks; withdrawal - longer due to compliance screening, sometimes with conversion to fiat.
Commissions: network + possible commission of the payment gateway/conversion.
Limits: depending on the level of verification and the results of AML transaction screening (chain-analysis).
Pros: convenience for users of the cryptoecosystem, fast input.
Cons: additional compliance (source of funds, address tracking) is not universally available and can only be used for a deposit, and withdrawal to a bank account according to the operator's rules.
Tip: check with the operator in advance for crypto availability, supported coins/networks and output format (back to crypto or fiat only).
5) KYC/AML and "same channel rule"
In the Czech Republic, there are strict KYC/AML procedures: confirmation of identity, address, payment instrument, monitoring of operations. The practice of withdrawal to source is widespread - withdrawing funds, if possible, to the same method from which the deposit was made. This reduces the risk of laundering and speeds up payments.
What to prepare in advance: scan/photo of the document, confirmation of address (bill for utility/bank statement), photo card (with partially closed numbers), screen e-wallet with name and e-mail.
6) Key criteria comparison
Deposit speed: cards/PayPal/Skrill - instantly; bank - from instant to 1 day; crypto - after network confirmations.
Output speed: e-wallet → cards → bank → crypto (depends on the provider and AML checks).
Commissions: more often 0% from the operator; bank/wallet/gateway charges are possible.
Limits: highest - bank; medium/high - e-wallet; cards - medium; crypto - individually.
Convenience for reporting: bank/cards - better; e-wallet - good; crypto - depends on the provider and the required references.
7) Frequent reasons for payment delays
1. Incomplete verification (no confirmation of address/payment method).
2. Name mismatch between account and payment instrument.
3. Change of method to output other than deposit method (violation of "same channel rule").
4. AML triggers (large amounts, frequent transactions, atypical behavior).
5. Bonus conditions are not met (wager, contribution of games, minimum coefficients).
8) Practical advice to the player
Verify your account and payment methods before the first payment.
Keep one basic method (card or e-wallet) - this speeds up checks.
Plan for liquidity: for large amounts, choose bank transfer; for fast payouts - Skrill/PayPal.
Read the bonus rules: some operators limit the participation of e-wallet in welcome bonuses.
Set limits: responsible bankroll and time control are part of a comfortable game.
9) What matters to the operator and platform
Clear KYC matrix and "rule of the same channel."
Partnerships with reliable PSP/banks, failover schemes in case the provider is unavailable.
Transaction logging, risk scoring, automatic AML alerts.
Transparent SLAs for payments and understandable communication with the user in the office/chat.
In the Czech Republic, the main "backbone" of payments in iGaming is cards, e-wallet (PayPal, Skrill) and bank transfers: fast, predictable and compatible with strict KYC/AML rules. Cryptocurrencies may be present, but only with extended compliance. The best user experience is provided by a simple bundle: a verified account + one main method + compliance with the "rule of the same channel" - this way deposits are instant, and conclusions come without unnecessary delays.
