Skrill

E-wallets have been around since the late 1990s and have steadily risen in popularity. They are now one of the most common ways to make payments online.

Skrill is one of the leading e-wallets available with users in more than 200 countries, and operating in over 40 different currencies. Skrill is widely accepted in casinos, such as Gala Casino, as a valid method of payment, offering players convenience and security plus fast processing.

Here’s a bit more information about how a Skrill casino payment works.

To use Skrill for online play, you need to be registered at casinos that accept Skrill. This is not yet universally the case, although numbers have climbed in recent years and continue to increase.

Once you're sure that this method of payment is accepted, it's effortless to make an online casino deposit with Skrill.

To top up an account, you navigate to the cashier area of the website and click on Skrill as the method of deposit. If you don't already have a Skrill account, you will need to create one. This can be done during the deposit process and only takes a couple of minutes.

If you already have a Skrill account, it’s just a matter of entering your details, adding the amount you want to transfer and confirming the transaction. The money will be transferred to your casino account instantly, leaving you free to start playing right away.

Once you’ve used your Skrill once with your casino account, you have the option of making a deposit with Skrill 1-Tap for future transactions. This enables quick transfers without the need to enter full details each time. 

Every casino is free to set its own limits for deposits, and it typically varies per method of payment.

At Gala Casino, the limit for Skrill is set very low, with a limit of just £5. This means that if you just want to play games with a low budget, you don't need to transfer a large sum to be able to participate.

The minimum online casino deposit with Skrill at Gala Casino is unchanged whether the player logs in and enters their full details or whether they’re registered with Skrill 1-Tap.

E-wallets were designed for online transactions, so they're a perfect fit for casinos and gambling. Some of the benefits of choosing Skrill to make a casino deposit include:

• Skrill is a licensed e-money issuer
• Your personal details will be held securely
• The transaction is rapid
• You can use Skrill on desktop or mobile devices
• It can be used for deposits and withdrawals
• There is a low minimum sum per transaction
• There are no additional fees for using Skrill
• It’s free to create a Skrill account
