Skrill is an e-wallet that acts as an intermediary payment solution, linking your
sportsbook of choice with a funding source like a credit card or bank account. Skrill
has wide acceptance, but does not provide service to sportsbooks from a few select
countries.
The only major national market that does not have access to sportsbook-related Skrill
services is Canada.
Transaction Timeframe:
When withdrawing funds back from Skrill to your Visa it may take up to 7 days, to
a bank account 2 to 5 days and if you have a Skrill Card and go to an ATM, your withdrawal
will be instant. So if you like a quick turnaround, the Skrill Card is a good choice.
When withdrawing from your sportsbook account, e-wallets like Skrill are by far the
fastest method with withdrawals taking less than 24 hours and often almost immediately.
Thus the Skrill Card is a great complementary tool to get your money in-hand as
fast as possible.
Depositing to a sportsbook from your funded Skrill account will be instantaneous.
High Transaction Limits:
You will find that Skrill is supported with some of the highest transaction limits
values of any e-wallet provider. This means that you can enjoy the quickness and
convenience of an e-walled solution while being able to bankroll your sportsbook
account only one or two deposits rather than several, and make a sizeable withdrawal
rather than several small ones.
