# Withdrawal times at Irish betting sites: what operators state and what changes them > How long do Irish betting sites say withdrawals take? No range is recorded yet; the table, the factors, the identity-check rules and what to do if a payout is late. Source: https://bookieledger.com/withdrawals/how-long-do-withdrawals-take/ Updated: 2026-11-07 No withdrawal times stated by Irish betting sites have been recorded yet, so this page gives no range. Once three or more operators are recorded for a method, the range will be shown as published, not measured, with the operator count and date. Time depends on the method, identity checks and the operator's processing. ## What range do operators state? No range is stated yet. The table is built to show, for each method, the lowest and highest “up to” time among the operators recorded, with the number of operators counted. **Stated withdrawal times by method. Source: operators' payment pages and terms · checked 7 November 2026** | Method | Stated range | Operators counted | Source | Checked | |---|---|---|---|---| | Debit card | Could not be verified on 7 November 2026 | 0 recorded | Operator payment pages, URLs to be recorded | 7 November 2026 | | PayPal | Could not be verified on 7 November 2026 | 0 recorded | Operator payment pages, URLs to be recorded | 7 November 2026 | | Skrill | Could not be verified on 7 November 2026 | 0 recorded | Operator payment pages, URLs to be recorded | 7 November 2026 | | Revolut | Could not be verified on 7 November 2026 | 0 recorded | Operator payment pages, URLs to be recorded | 7 November 2026 | | Bank transfer and Open Banking | Could not be verified on 7 November 2026 | 0 recorded | Operator payment pages, URLs to be recorded | 7 November 2026 | A range is published only when at least three operators are recorded for the method. **Bottom line:** every range is empty until at least three operators are recorded per method. ## What changes the time? - **Method.** Each method has its own page: [debit card](https://bookieledger.com/payments/debit-cards/withdrawals/), [PayPal](https://bookieledger.com/payments/paypal/withdrawals/), [Skrill](https://bookieledger.com/payments/skrill/withdrawals/) and [bank transfer](https://bookieledger.com/payments/open-banking-and-bank-transfer/withdrawals/). - **Identity checks.** Required before an account opens (section 169). - **Operator processing.** The step from request to approval, as the terms describe it. - **The receiving side.** A bank or wallet adds its own time. **Bottom line:** method, verification and processing each add a step. ## Why is a stated time not a measured one? A stated time is what the operator publishes. We did not place bets, open accounts or request payouts, so no time on this site is measured. Example with invented figures: a term reads “up to 2 working days”. A request made on Saturday 14 November 2026 is counted from Monday 16 November. If Monday is day one, the window ends on Tuesday 17 November. **Bottom line:** read the wording on weekends and counting rules before relying on a date. ## What do the rules say on identity checks? Section 169 of the [Act](https://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/2024/act/35/enacted/en/html) requires identity and age to be verified before an account opens. S.I. 315/2026 adds a documents route: photo identification with a date of birth, a document showing an address and a bank statement from the last 6 months ([S.I. 315/2026](https://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/2026/si/315/made/en/print)). These rules bind operators. Whether a second check applies at withdrawal is set in each operator's terms, not recorded yet. **Bottom line:** the law sets checks at account opening; later checks come from operator terms. ## What if it takes longer than stated? 1. Note the request date and the wording of the stated time. 2. Check the account for a verification request. 3. Write to the operator's support and keep the reference. 4. See [why a withdrawal can stay pending](https://bookieledger.com/withdrawals/why-is-my-withdrawal-pending/) and the [complaints route](https://bookieledger.com/licence/where-to-complain-about-a-betting-site/). **Bottom line:** measure the delay against the stated wording, then escalate in order. ## Safer gambling and help 18+ only.
