Your guide to online casino payments

If you want to get started on your favourite game or place a bet on an upcoming match at an online casino and sportsbook like Duelbits, you’ll need to know how to put money on your account.

At Duelbits we offer a wide range of payment options so you can pay and play your way. Some payment methods may have different turnaround times, requirements or conditions before they’re cleared – so it’s important you know how your preferred payment method works inside out.

Popular payment methods

At most online casinos you can use traditional payment methods to top up your account and get back to playing. These include your standard VISA or Mastercard payments coming directly from your bank account or even Apple Pay.

There are also options to pay using digital platforms. PayPal is probably the one most familiar, but there are also other options like Paysafecard and WebMoney. Skrill is another great option because it has a neat crossover between using traditional payment methods as well as cryptocurrency.

At Duelbits our most popular payment method is by depositing cryptocurrency into your account – and there are plenty of coins to choose from. When you deposit crypto into your Duelbits account, it will be converted into Bits which you use to wager.

You can pay with cryptocurrencies including:

  • Ethereum
  • Bitcoin
  • Litecoin
  • Dogecoin
  • Bitcoin Cash
  • Solana
  • Ripple
  • Tether

You can also link up your Steam account and deposit CS:GO skins to get up and running, or buy Ethereum directly through a Duelbits deposit address.

How long do transactions take?

The turnaround time on transactions can vary depending on your method of payment.

If you’re depositing using a traditional method associated like VISA or Mastercard it will depend on the bank’s processing time, which could potentially take days.

Depositing using crypto is in nearly all cases much faster – coming through in a couple of minutes. In rare occasions where the network for a given cryptocurrency is congested the payment can take a little longer, in these cases Bitcoin can take between 10 and 30 minutes, while Ethereum may take 5-10 minutes to credit.

For withdrawals, Duelbits sends them instantly unless they are flagged for manual review by our regulatory requirements. Withdrawals that are flagged for manual review are typically reviewed within 1 hour but may take up to 12 hours.

Deposit and withdrawal limits

When you set up your account, most online casinos give you the option to set up a deposit limit as part of their responsible gambling support. It’s up to you whether you set this up and what limit you set for your deposits, it’s important to think about how much you can afford to gamble according to your financial situation.

There are also minimum and maximum withdrawal limits at online casinos too. At Duelbits you’ve got plenty of freedom to play how you want – we have a minimum amount of 50 Bits in whatever currency you’re withdrawing in and no limit on your maximum withdrawal.

It’s also important to know that if you’re withdrawing at Duelbits you can only withdraw in a cryptocurrency of your choice, so make sure you’ve got a crypto wallet connected to your account.

Online casino payment fees

Depending on where you play, online casinos may charge fees to deposit and withdraw money. The lowest fees are generally associated with using cryptocurrency – there aren’t any banks skimming money off the top.

If you withdraw using cryptocurrency at Duelbits, we don’t charge you any fees. However, as with any crypto transaction, there are network costs to move the money which you’ll be able to see when you go to withdraw. We update the network costs in real time so you have the latest information on how much you will incur in fees.

Bonuses

Some online casinos offer welcome bonuses when you sign up – usually some free bets or some extra credits on the house. A big caveat is that depending on your payment method you might not get bonuses, often when you use the likes of Neteller and Skrill.

At Duelbits we pride ourselves on being a low-fee online casino. Instead of welcome bonuses to cover any hidden transaction fees a casino might charge later, we’ve got tons of different bonuses you can use for the games or sports you love.

Account security

It’s important to make sure your account is secure so you can play without worry. Along with setting a strong password, you should set up 2-factor authentication on your Duelbits account so only you can verify a login.

Additionally, if you have a crypto wallet tied to your account, you should take the necessary steps to keep your [crypto wallet] secure.
