To properly test The Pools' withdrawal speed, I signed up for an account, made a £5 deposit using a Visa debit card, and then went through the full withdrawal journey.

After tapping my profile icon and selecting "Withdraw", I entered £5 (the minimum amount) and submitted the request. The process was easy and the money was in my account after just 45 minutes.

In short, I have no complaints about the speed of The Pools.

The Pools Withdrawal Time for Each Payment Method

The Pools has deep roots in the gambling industry but the sportsbook, as well as the casino section, is still a young product and this shows on the payment methods front. Only debit cards and PayPal are accepted by the bookie and while this will certainly suffice for most, it is worth keeping in mind.

Below, we have collected everything you need to know about withdrawing funds from The Pools. In addition to withdrawal time, we have also listed the minimum withdrawal amount for each payment method at The Pools.

What Is the Fastest Way to Withdraw Money From The Pools?

Getting your hands on winnings quickly, from the betting account to the bank ditto, is crucial for punters and The Pools delivers on this front. Thanks to the Visa Direct feature, available for Visa debit cards, customers can receive their funds in less than an hour (45 minutes in our case) after submitting a withdrawal request.

This method thus guarantees fast withdrawals for UK punters. Unfortunately, there is no similar feature for customers with a Mastercard, at least not for now. Additionally, only having PayPal (albeit fast) as another available method is quite limiting, so if The Pools added other methods, perhaps the bookie could grow even more.

    Once you have entered the cashier, you will be shown the most recent payment methods used. We have only used one method, so we were only prompted to use the same one.

    Enter the Withdrawal Amount

    After choosing the payment method for the withdrawal, you need to enter the amount that you would like to withdraw. The new minimum withdrawal amount is £5, which again is nice, considering it was previously £10.

    Finally, once the above has been completed, tap the 'Withdraw' button, which will take you to a receipt screen. In our test, it took 45 minutes for the funds to reach our bank account, making the withdrawal process very quick from start to finish.

The Pools Withdrawal FAQs

To complete the withdrawal process it takes around 45 minutes. However, the actual process of submitting a withdrawal request from The Pools can be done within minutes - if not less.

To withdraw money from your The Pools account, ensure you have the minimum amount in your wallet to withdraw. Then, head to the withdrawal cashier (via the Profile icon), enter your withdrawal amount and your funds will be with you shortly.
