PayPal can be used for gambling payments only where the merchant is approved by PayPal and the activity is permitted. Its presence on a casino website does not guarantee that your account or funding source is eligible.
Funding rules in Great Britain
Credit cards cannot be used to fund online casino gambling, including through an e-wallet. Do not add a credit card to PayPal as a workaround.
Check the cashier and account terms
Before using PayPal, check deposit and withdrawal availability, account-name requirements, limits, possible fees and currency conversion. Do not assume that PayPal is universally free or that every casino accepts it. Read any bonus terms for payment-method exclusions.
Payment controls
PayPal publishes a gambling-block feature for eligible payments. Read its current scope and limitations directly; a payment block is not a guarantee that every gambling transaction will be identified.
