Fafabet is certainly an interesting option for UK punters, launched back in 2021. If you have used any of the more popular sister sites like QuinnBet or Fitzdares, then you could certainly enjoy the site. However, while the FSB Tech-powered sportsbook is very comprehensive, the bookie has one pitfall: payment methods.
It is by no means a deal breaker, but the lack of payment methods and the £10 minimum deposit amount are certainly not great, especially with many sites accepting £5 deposits. Below, we have collected everything you need to know about Fafabet and depositing funds, from the payment methods accepted to the specific terms for each.

Below, we have put together a step-by-step guide for adding funds to a Fafabet account. There are no differences when depositing on the site or the mobile app, so we chose to do so with the latter.
Once you have entered the app, or the website for that matter, you must tap the profile icon in the top right. Following this, you will be presented with a few options, but we obviously want to tap the 'Deposit' one.
This step can be skipped for anyone not depositing for the first time. However, first-time depositors will be asked to provide their address as their 'Banking address', this is simple to do though as can be seen below.
Following this, you will be taken to the transaction area, and you must enter your deposit details here. Of course, only a debit card can be selected, so there is no choice of methods.
Finally, enter how much you would like to deposit, and then tap the deposit button.
With the process complete, you will be shown a receipt option if you wish to see it, however, we have never found it necessary.
Punters and casino players in the UK have become growingly expectant of a £5 minimum amount on the deposit side of things, so they will be disappointed by Fafabet's minimum of £10. However, this is the standardised amount across all of the 'sister sites' so it is not a lone frustration.
Unfortunately, Fafabet does take another hit when it comes to payments as there is only one method available, so customers will have to go elsewhere should they wish to use an e-wallet. Improving both the methods offered and the minimum deposit could help Fafabet a lot, at least in our opinion.
The saving grace, in some way, is that debit cards are often a popular method to use for punters. As such, the site will not lose many customers, compared to if a niche e-wallet was the sole payment system. A bonus to this is that payments can be very fast due to Visa Direct, so we can give the site credit there.
Payment Method | Min. Limit | Max. Limit | Transaction Fee | Processing Time |

Mastercard | £10 | £10,000 | No fee | Instant |
