Online betting fans will have probably used several different banking methods to fund their accounts. However, they cannot all be used to make low deposits. Here are the leading options:
Debit card: Most customers of betting sites in the UK will probably use a debit card - such as Visa or MasterCard - to deposit into their accounts. The good news is that a lot of leading UK betting sites allow their users to deposit just £5 when using a debit card. Lottoland even accepts deposits as low as £1 (!) when punters use a debit card.
E-wallets: Among the benefits of using e-wallets is that they tend to have some of the fastest withdrawal times at UK betting sites. Both £5 deposits and £5 withdrawals are offered via leading e-wallets by a lot of the top online betting brands in the UK right now. Most betting sites accept PayPal but some of the other good options that are offered include Skrill and Neteller, which are part of the same company.
Bank transfer: Some betting site users might still prefer to use a traditional payment method like a bank transfer to add funds to their account, or to withdraw winnings. Some sites do offer a £5 minimum deposit via bank transfer, but this is quite rare compared to many other options.
Apple/Google Pay: Mobile betting is increasingly popular in the UK and people with iOS/Android devices will find Apple/Google Pay to be a very handy way to make some small deposits. As well as £5 minimum deposits, the benefits of using Apple/Google Pay are that it is rapid, as well as very secure.
Paysafecard: While not often listed among the low minimum deposit and withdrawal options at UK betting sites, some do allow Paysafecard to be used as well as debit cards and e-wallets. Bet365 is a leading option for anyone who prefers to pick Paysafecard when they bet online.
