With SBK being a relatively unknown bookmaker, we wanted to go beyond testing the basics of the bookie's sportsbook, looking at the withdrawal time as well. We deposited and withdrew the minimum amount of £10, and expected to wait a few hours for our money back.
However, we received the money within minutes. Given that we used Visa Direct, we perhaps should have expected a faster time, but the fact that the whole process took less than five minutes is superb. In short, we have nothing to complain about here.

SBK is definitely not one of the most well-known bookmakers in the UK, but it is one of the best 'new' options in our eyes. Customers will be well treated on the app-only operator, with a nice range of different markets and promotions.
The niceties continue with payments, where deposits are very easy, and this follows through to withdrawals, which is never a bad thing. Unfortunately, the £10 minimum remains, but this can be looked past given the speed of withdrawals.
Below, we have collected the key information about withdrawals at SBK, such as the payment methods available and the withdrawal time for each.

Based on our test, seeing as the money arrived in less than five minutes, Visa debit card is the fastest method when withdrawing from SBK. Having said that, the bookie also accepts methods such as Neteller and Skrill, which are generally fast to withdraw with, and Apple Pay could also do a good job depending on the card you have connected to it.
It should also be noted that SBK offers the 'Pay By Bank' method, which connects directly to your bank. We do believe this is just a different name for Instant Bank Transfer which, in that case, would mean this can also be a very fast method. Nevertheless, the speed of Visa Direct is no surprise given the support for the Visa Direct system these days.
If you are looking to withdraw winnings from SBK for the first time, you can make use of our step-by-step guide below:
In the app, you need to tap the wallet icon in the middle of the screen. Then, you will have a 'Withdraw' option available to you, provided that you have made a deposit before. In most betting apps, you have to go to a 'Profile' area to reach this screen, but this is not the case here.
Once you have tapped on 'Withdraw', as shown in the previous step, you will be brought to a cashier. Here, you need to choose the payment method and enter the withdrawal amount, before tapping on 'Continue'.
SBK will now show you a confirmation screen of the withdrawal request. Make sure that the information is correct and then tap on 'Confirm Withdrawal' to complete the request. In our test, the money was in our bank account less than five minutes after tapping the button.
