How Long Does a The Pools Withdrawal Take? Our Test Result

Many might not think of The Pools as a fast withdrawal site, but we decided to not judge the book by its cover and test the withdrawal process ourselves. We withdrew £10 - the minimum amount - with a Visa debit card and thanks to the Visa Direct feature, the money arrived in our bank account after three hours.

This is up there with some of the best betting sites in the UK, better than some of them even, so punters will not have to worry about slow withdrawals at The Pools. The presence of PayPal also guarantees a certain speed, so the overall situation is very positive.

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 just three hours 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.

How to Withdraw Funds From The Pools

If you are new to The Pools and would like to find out how to withdraw funds, you can follow our step-by-step guide below, which we made with the help of The Pools' website.

    Check Withdrawal Method

    Once you have entered the cashier, you need to check that your withdrawal method is correct - given this was our first withdrawal, we could only use the same method as our deposit.

    Enter Withdrawal Amount

    After choosing the payment method for the withdrawal, you need to enter the amount that you would like to withdraw. While the minimum deposit is £5 at The Pools, you must withdraw at least £10 in one go so we went with that.

    Tap On 'Withdraw' and Wait for the Money

    Finally, once the above has been completed, tap the white/green 'Withdraw' button. In our test, it took three hours 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 three hours. 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.
