8.1 Deposits are made by transfer of money to the Company’s account by way of the payment methods stated on the Website. The payment methods currently available include debit cards, e-Wallet payments and Prepaid Cards. The Company reserves the right, to change the accepted methods of payment at its sole discretion. The Company further reserves the right to accept certain methods of payment only subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions. The Company does not warrant that all methods of payment are available at all times. To verify which payment and withdrawal methods that are currently available and the minimum deposit amount and transaction fees applicable kindly visit our Deposit tab in the main page of our Website. By way of guidance below you can find guidelines of transaction time for each payment method:

8.3 By depositing money you agree not to make any charge-backs, reversals or otherwise cancel any deposits into Your Player Account, and you agree to refund and compensate us for any reasonable costs incurred by us in connection with any charge-back, reversal or cancellation of any deposits.
8.4 The Company can, under certain circumstances, credit Your Player Account with so-called bonus money (which will form part of any Bonus Funds in your account) where you accept to take part in such a promotion. Before we credit Your Player Account with any bonus money, you must read and agree to the terms upon which the bonus money or promotion will be granted to you. We will notify you of these terms either to the email used to register your account or via “pop-up”. We run a number of promotions on the Website at any time. If you would like to review any of the terms applicable to our promotions please see: General Bonus Terms in the footer of the Website and the terms and conditions relevant to the promotion, bonus or special offer which can be found on the Website from time to time.
8.5 Any Bonus Funds are displayed separately from any Deposit Funds in Your Player Account. Bonus Funds can only be withdrawn once they have been converted into real cash Winnings that form part of your Deposit Funds. If Your Player Account contains both Deposit Funds and Bonus Funds, this is the order in which funds will be applied for wagering:
1/ firstly the Deposit Funds required to trigger the bonus will be deducted from your Deposit Funds (if available) (i.e. if You are required to deposit £100 in order to claim a bonus, and there is £100 or more in your Deposit Funds, then that £100 will be deducted from your Deposit Funds first). The Deposit Funds so deducted will be the first used in any wagering. If there is no requirement for you to deposit your own funds to trigger the bonus or no such bonus arrangement applies then 2/ and 3/ below will apply;
2/ secondly any available Bonus Funds will be used; and
3/ thirdly any remaining Deposit Funds will be used.
Specific bonus and promotion terms and conditions will be published on the Website in conjunction with the launch of any bonus or promotion. If you request to withdraw all or some of the Deposit Funds used to activate a promotion or bonus before fulfilling any of the terms and conditional applicable to any Bonus Funds (including, but not limited to, any wagering requirements) or otherwise whilst a promotion or bonus is active or pending on Your Player Account you will forfeit any Bonus Funds in Your Player Account associated with the relevant promotion or bonus in their entirety. Any Deposit Funds that you have deposited which is not related to any bonus (i.e. which was not required to be made in order to claim Bonus Funds or to participate in any promotion) are free to be withdrawn at any point in time and will not result in the forfeiture of any Bonus Funds.
8.6 Your Player Account is not a bank account and is therefore not insured, guaranteed, sponsored or otherwise protected by any banking insurance system. Additionally, any money deposited with us in Your Player Account will not earn any interest.
8.7 In relation to deposits of funds into Your Player Account, you shall only use such debit cards and other payment methods that are valid and lawfully belong to you.
8.8 You agree that all deposits/withdrawals made to/from your player account, are effected to/from bank account/s, debit/credit card/s or any other payment options available in your country, which belong solely to you and are in your name and that you are not depositing funds originating from any criminal, fraudulent or other unauthorised means or activities.

9.7 You are responsible for reporting your Winnings and losses to your local tax or other Authorities.

As part of our licensing requirements we must collect documentary evidence of customer’s identity, such as proof of address, proof of ownership of payment method, proof of source of funds and/or proof of source of wealth under certain circumstances. The documentation/ information requested will not result in a request for additional information to be supplied as a condition of withdrawal where we already have requested that information earlier. However, this will not preclude us from seeking information on the customer which must be obtained at that time due to any other legal obligation. Once a withdrawal has been approved customers can expect funds to reach them in the following guiding timeframes;
9.9 If Your Player Account has been dormant, closed, blocked or excluded for any reason other than for compliance with our client verification measures and for any period of time, and the initial attempt to return Deposit Funds to you as per Clause 6 was not successful, you may contact our support team to request to recover any Deposit Funds that might still be in Your Player Account. Our support team will investigate any such request and we will contact you (subject to our legal and regulatory obligations) with information about how the Deposit Funds will be transferred back to you. You will need to answer a number of security questions for us to be able to verify that you are the legal owner of Your Player Account. Your Deposit Funds will remain on Your Account indefinitely until such time that you request the funds to be transferred back to you.
