bet365 Deposit Guide - Payment Methods and Options for 2024

Customers depositing for the first time can use the UK bonus code for bet365. After registration, the first step to depositing funds is to correctly set up and verify your bet365 account.

We all tend to have our preferred payment methods, but deciding how to input funds into your bet365 account isn't just about personal preference. You need to think about the best payment method based on how much you wish to add and how quickly you need the funds to be available. You also need to consider the bet365 withdrawal time for your funds (deposited or won) because bet365 will, by default, attempt to process your withdrawal via the same method as your deposit.

PayPal

Funds instantly transfer to your account. A minimum deposit of £25 and a maximum of £5,500: no fees and no sharing of card details.

PayPal is the most commonly used e-wallet and is the perfect method of depositing funds into your bet365 account if you’d prefer not to share your debit card details.

How to Deposit Using PayPal

From the Bank section of your bet365 account, click on Deposit and select PayPal from the dropdown list. As with all other payment methods, bet365 does not charge for making a deposit. Input the amount you wish to deposit, and once confirmed, you’ll be directed to your PayPal account to sign in and approve the transaction.

Ensure your bet365 account name is the same name used for your PayPal account. You can create one here if you don’t already have a PayPal account.

Debit Card, Visa, Electron, Mastercard

Funds appear in your account instantly. A minimum deposit of £5 and a maximum of £20,000.

bet365 accepts Visa, Electron and Mastercard Debit Cards. In some cases, payments may be processed via Mastercard ID Check or Visa Secure, which act as a two-step verification process in which you will need to verify ownership of the card. This is most often done through fingerprint verification or a code sent via email or text.

Apple Pay

Funds appear in your account instantly.

Apple Pay is registered to a specific debit card and works much similarly, except for the lower maximum deposit of £5000. There are no fees to pay, but it's only an option for those in the UK wishing to add funds in GBP or Euros.

You can use Apple Pay to add funds on bet365 iOS Mobile and Tablet Sports. You can also use it as your payment method for the Bingo and Games Apps.

How to Deposit Funds Using Apple Pay

Access your bet365 Account from your iOS mobile or tablet and head to Deposit.

Select Apple Pay as your payment method from the dropdown box and input the amount you wish to add. Ensure you’re using the same name on bet365 as with Apple Pay; otherwise, bet365 won't accept your payment.

Google Pay

Funds appear in your account instantly. A minimum deposit of £5 and a maximum of £5,000. Only available on supported bet365 apps on Android.

Google Pay functions similarly to Apple Pay but is available when not using an iPhone or other Apple products. As with Apple Pay, you can only use Google Pay to add funds on bet365 Android Mobile and Tablet Sports and the Bingo and Games Apps.

How to Deposit Funds Using Google Pay

Follow the steps detailed in the Apple Pay section, selecting Google Pay from the dropdown. Remember that payment is taken from the card you’ve registered with Google Pay.

Paysafecard

Funds hit your bet365 Account instantly. A maximum deposit of £770.

The Paysafecard is a pre-paid card funded by vouchers, so ensure sufficient funds available on your card. If you need to top up, you can do so at Recharge.

Paysafecard payments are limited to the following countries: Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland and the UK.

How to Deposit Using Paysafecard

From the Bank section of your bet365 Account, choose Paysafecard from the dropdown box and enter the amount you wish to deposit. Like with PayPal deposits, you’ll be redirected to the Paysafecard website, where you'll need to log into your account to approve the payment.

Click to Pay

Funds appear in your account instantly. A minimum deposit of £5 and a maximum of £5,000.

Click to Pay is a ‘one click’ payment method supported by Visa and open to Mastercard, American Express, and Discover accounts.

Click to Pay removes the need to add your card details when using your debit card as your deposit method and offers high protection against fraud.

How to Deposit Using Click to Pay

1. Head to the Bank section from your account, click on Deposit and select Click to Pay as your payment method. You’ll then be directed to your Click to Pay account, where you’ll have the option to choose which of your registered cards you want to use.
2. Once selected, you’ll be sent back to the bet365 deposit page, where you’ll need to input the CV2 number (security number) on the back of the card you wish to use, and then the payment will be complete.
3. To register your debit card for Visa’s Click to Pay, head over to their website.

Wire Transfer

Funds will be in your account in 2 -10 banking days. Minimum deposit of £100 and a maximum of £100,000.

Wire Transfers are the deposit method for those who plan to bet big, but you will need to plan because funds are not available instantly.

If you’re in the UK and depositing in GBP from a bank such as Barclays, HSBC Starling or Monzo, your funds could be available in 1 day but could take up to 3 days. These terms apply to those living in Europe depositing funds in Euros, and those in Australia, depositing funds in AUD.

If you’re located in any other country or depositing funds in any other currency, bet365 will likely receive your funds in 2 - 10 banking days.

How to Deposit Via Bank Transfer

Following the steps outlined above, log in to your bet365 account and click into the Bank section.

1. Using the dropdown arrow in the Payment Method section, select Wire Transfer. All the details needed to arrange a transfer are then provided, which you’ll need to do from your bank account.
2. The Reference section will show your bet365 Account Name, and that’s what needs to be used as the payment reference when you transfer your money.
3. Although there is a Submit button at the bottom, you cannot transfer funds from this screen. It can only be done from your bank account.
4. bet365 will notify you via email when the funds have cleared, and you can start using your balance to place bets.

Pay by Bank App

Deposit from your Barclays or HSBC account.

You can make instant bank transfers using the Pay by Bank App if you have a Barclays or HSBC account.

You can deposit £5-£5,000 in this way. If you are using your mobile device to make the deposit, then you will automatically be transferred to your banking app to complete the transaction. Otherwise, you will be given a 6-character code to enter into the app to complete the payment.

Trustly

Instant banking deposits up to £25,000.

Trustly is supported by most UK banks and allows you to make instant bank transfers of up to £25,000 using your banks mobile app.

When choosing this payment method on a mobile you will be sent straight to your banking app to confirm. Online you will be given a QR code to scan to approve the transaction.

This method is ideal if you don't have an HSBC or Barclays account, or if you want to deposit higher amounts than allowed by the Pay by Bank method. It also has the added advantage of being available for fast withdrawals.

Unavailable Payment Methods

• Credit Card - The most obvious payment method not available on bet365 in the UK is the option to deposit with a Credit Card. Credit Card payments are available on bet365 in other countries such as Australia and the US, but from April 2020, the Gambling Commission announced a ban on using credit cards to gamble in the UK.
• Skrill and Neteller - These e-wallets are available in the UK from bookmakers such as Paddy Power, who accept Neteller and Betfair, who accept both Skrill and Neteller.

How to Deposit Funds

Depositing funds into your bet365 account via debit card is easy. Once logged in, you’ll see the symbol for your account on the right, your balance (which will either be £0.00 or a total value) and the option to click on Deposit.

From here, you’ll be taken to a screen with your deposit options, and bet365 will automatically have any previous payment methods saved.

If the Payment Method isn’t already set to Debit Card, use the dropdown arrow to select it. Then add your chosen card details and deposit a minimum of £5.00.

bet365 allows you to store up to five cards here using the Add Card section, so select the correct card once you store multiple cards.

Setting Limits

bet365 is committed to helping its customers stay safe when gambling, and one way to do this is by setting limits. You can set up limits and self-imposed restrictions from the Bank section of your account.
You’ll see the Deposit text and access to your account on every screen on the bet365 website, so this section is always easy to navigate to.

Once there, go to the Deposit section, and click on Deposit Limits.

This area gives you control over your limits. You can increase them, but going into your account and changing them is often enough to make you stop and consider if increasing your deposit limits is in your best interest. There is also a 24-hour cooling-off period on any increases. The lowest value bet that can be placed with bet365 is 10p.

You'll find other safety measures in this section, such as Time Out, which allows you to impose a self-ban for a set period.

You can find more details on the Safer Gambling Options available at bet365 and how to use them in our Safer Gambling article.
