5 Tricks to Get Your Online Casino Payouts Faster

1

Last week, my friend hit a sweet 500x win on Yggdrasil’s Wilhelm Tell slot. And you know what? He waited for nine days for the money to reach his bank account. Nine. Whole. Days. You probably know how that waiting for your payouts feels. After years of playing online (and plenty of withdrawal experience), I've figured out some tricks to speed things up.

1. Pick Your Casino Like You'd Pick Your Bank

I used to register at any casino offering huge bonuses until I realized I was spending more time waiting for payouts than enjoying the games. Now I carefully pick the platforms, considering the withdrawal speed as one of the key factors. I look for casinos with varied banking options and fast processing times. I like it, for instance, that at Lucky-Dreams Casino, you clearly see the processing time for each method: there are five instant withdrawal methods and two types of withdrawals, which you receive within an hour or two. That’s superb!

Quick Tip: Before depositing anywhere new, try asking support: "What's your average payout time for [your preferred payment method]?" Their response speed usually indicates how fast they'll handle your withdrawals too.

2. Complete KYC Verification ASAP

Learn from my mistake. I once waited three extra days for a $2,000 win because I hadn't verified my account timely. Here's what I do now with every new casino:

• upload a passport copy and a bank statement right after signing up;
• take clear photos – I use my phone against a white background;
• double-check that everything's readable before submitting.

Most verification gets approved within hours if you do it right the first time. While waiting, you can enjoy eye of horus free play.

3. Use E-Wallets or Cryptocurrencies for Faster Transactions

After testing pretty much every withdrawal method out there, here's what I've found:

• bank transfers: 3-7 business days (ugh)
• credit cards: 2-5 business days (still too slow)
• e-wallets (Skrill, Neteller, etc.): 0-24 hours (now we're talking!)
• crypto: Often instant, once approved

I personally use Skrill for most of my gambling. It offers the fastest payouts I've seen, especially from European casinos.

4. Avoid Requesting Payouts on Weekends or Holidays

This one's gold. I've noticed my withdrawal requests get processed way faster when I submit them Tuesday through Thursday, between 9 AM and 2 PM GMT. Why? That's when most casino payment teams are at their desks.

Weekend Warning: I once made the rookie mistake of requesting a withdrawal at 6 PM on a Friday. It sat there untouched until Tuesday morning. Never again.

5. Opt for Lower Withdrawal Amounts

I've discovered a sweet spot for withdrawal times through trial and error. Instead of withdrawing everything at once, I spread larger wins across a few transactions. Most casinos have their "review threshold" where extra security kicks in. I typically keep my withdrawals modest – found that the first portion often hits my account while the rest is still processing.

The Bottom Line (Plus Bonus)

Waiting for your winnings isn't fun, I get it. But using these tricks, I've cut my average waiting time from 5-6 days down to about 12-24 hours. Sometimes even faster. The key is setting everything up before you need it. Get verified early, use e-wallets, and time your withdrawals right.

BONUS: My Pre-Withdrawal Checklist

After forgetting too many important details (and dealing with delayed payouts), I created this checklist. I keep it saved on my phone (maybe you should too).

✓ Account Health Check

☐ No active bonuses or wagering requirements left
☐ Account fully verified (ID, address, phone)
☐ Using the same withdrawal method as my deposit

✓ Timing Check

☐ It's a weekday (Tuesday-Thursday ideally)
☐ During business hours (9 AM - 2 PM GMT works best)
☐ Not during any major holidays

✓ Amount Check

☐ The withdrawal amount is above the minimum limit
☐ The amount is below the "manual review" threshold (usually $2,000)
☐ Have enough balance to cover any withdrawal fees
☐ Checked if breaking into smaller amounts makes sense

✓ Payment Method Check

☐ The E-wallet account is verified and active
☐ No pending transactions on my e-wallet
☐ Have screenshots of my deposit transactions
☐ The payment method matches the country in my KYC docs
