# Skrill on betting sites in Ireland: acceptance, fees and limits

> Skrill at Irish betting sites: which operators accept it, what fees and limits they and Skrill state, and why wallet funding matters under section 165.

Skrill is an e-wallet, and an e-wallet funded from a credit card falls under the ban in section 165 of the Gambling Regulation Act 2024. Which Irish betting sites accept Skrill, and what fees and limits they or Skrill state, is not yet recorded. The table is unverified as of 7 November 2026.

## What is Skrill as a wallet?

A wallet holds a balance that you fund from a bank or card, then spend at a merchant. That funding route is the point: the Act bars credit cards and e-methods funded from them.

## What does Skrill itself state?

Skrill's terms for payments to gambling merchants, including its own fees, are a primary source and are not yet recorded. We do not copy a fee until it carries a URL and a date.

## Where to compare other methods?

[PayPal](https://bookieledger.com/payments/paypal/) is the closest wallet. [Debit cards](https://bookieledger.com/payments/debit-cards/) are the card route that remains. Stated withdrawal times for wallets are handled in [PayPal withdrawal times](https://bookieledger.com/payments/paypal/withdrawals/) and are not measured.

## What is missing?

- Three or more operators with a payments-page URL.
- Fee and limit values from both the operator and Skrill.
- A read date within 30 days.

## In short

**Bottom line:** Skrill acceptance, fees and limits are unverified; wallet funding is the legal point to watch.
