Skrill at Nano: paying and getting paid through an e-wallet

Skrill is an international e-wallet: you load money into it from a card or bank account and then pay merchants from the wallet balance, without sharing card details with each of them. For a casino player the appeal is that the same wallet can usually receive payouts, so money comes back to a balance you control and moves on to your bank when you decide. Whether it appears in the Nano cashier depends on your country and account. The set of methods and the limits depend on the operator and your account — check the cashier.

Go to the offer

Set up the wallet before you need it

Open the Skrill account in your own legal name, with the same e-mail address you use for the casino where possible, and complete Skrill’s own verification before you deposit. An unverified wallet may have low limits or be unable to receive payments, and you do not want to discover that while a withdrawal is waiting. Pick the wallet currency with care: if it differs from the currency of the Nano account, every deposit and every payout is converted, once by the operator side and once by the wallet.

How to deposit with Skrill

Choose Skrill in the cashier and enter the amount.
Log in to the wallet in the window that opens, or enter the e-mail linked to it.
Confirm the payment; the wallet may ask for a one-time code.
Return to the cashier and check that the deposit shows as completed.

Before you pay, read the bonus terms. E-wallet deposits are sometimes excluded from welcome and reload offers, and finding that out after the deposit means you played without the bonus you expected. The bonus terms guide shows where that clause usually sits.

Withdrawing to Skrill

When Skrill is on the withdrawal tab, a payout normally goes back to the same wallet that funded the account. The wallet must be in the same name as the casino account; a wallet belonging to someone else, even a family member, counts as a third-party payment and blocks the withdrawal. After the operator approves the request, e-wallet payouts usually arrive faster than bank or card routes, but moving the money from Skrill to your bank is a separate step with its own fees, published in Skrill’s fee table.

Typical causes of a Skrill delay

Proof of the wallet. The operator may ask for a screenshot of the Skrill account page showing your name, e-mail and the deposit transaction.
Different e-mail. If the wallet e-mail differs from the one used to deposit, the operator cannot match the route automatically.
Wallet limits. An unverified or newly opened wallet may reject an incoming amount above its limit.
Mixed deposit methods. If you also deposited by card, the card may have to be repaid first, and only the remainder goes to the wallet.

Is an e-wallet right for you?

It suits players who want to keep casino transactions apart from their main bank account and who will use the same wallet in both directions. It suits less well if your country restricts e-wallet payments to gambling sites, or if you dislike paying one more set of fees between the wallet and your bank. In that case a direct bank transfer may be simpler.

Frequently asked questions

Does my Skrill account need to be in my name?

Yes. The wallet must belong to the account holder; a wallet in anyone else’s name is a third-party payment and will block withdrawals.

Do Skrill deposits qualify for bonuses?

Not always. Some bonus terms exclude e-wallet deposits, so read the eligible payment methods in the offer before you deposit.

Why is my Skrill withdrawal pending?

Usually because the operator is checking the wallet: a screenshot of the account page, a matching e-mail, or repayment of a card used earlier. Ask support which item is missing.
