After receiving your real-money username and password, you are ready to make a deposit into your Black Widow Casino account.

How long does it take to process my deposit?

All deposit methods take approximately 1 minute to process and funds are made available in casino account within this time frame.

How much can I deposit to my Black Widow Casino balance?

The following limits of deposits apply for each currency type/deposit method:

FOR GBP [£] Accounts
Visa/MasterCard/Solo/Switch/Maestro/Diners Club
Minimum single deposit £20
Maximum single deposit £2500

FOR EUR [€] Accounts
Visa/MasterCard/Diners Club
Minimum single deposit €20
Maximum single deposit €1000

FOR USD [$] Accounts
Visa/MasterCard/Diners Club
Minimum single deposit $20
Maximum single deposit $5000

FOR $/£/€ Accounts
Moneybookers
Minimum single deposit $20
Maximum single deposit $1500

NETeller
Minimum single deposit $20
Maximum single deposit $2500

Instadebit
Minimum single deposit $20
Maximum single deposit $2500

Firepay
Minimum single deposit $20
Maximum single deposit $5000+

The minimum you can withdraw from your casino account to your preferred payment method is $25.00.
However, this minimum requirement is also applied to any amount sent for withdrawal greater than the initial deposit amount. For example if you had deposited $20 by NETeller and wanted to withdraw $35 by way of another alternate payment method, you would be unable to withdraw the entire amount. The reason being that all withdrawal requests are first sent back to your NETeller account, up to the original amount that you deposited. The remaining balance is paid to you as per your choice of alternate payment method. Thus if you had $35 to withdraw and $20 had to be returned to your NETeller you would only have $15 remaining to be credited to an alternate payment method but it would be below the $25 minimum requirement.

For another example, as of January 1st, 2004, a credit card depositor that initially bought $50, won $200 and cashed out $250, would see all of their funds come back via their chosen payment method [if the player had an INSTADEBIT, or NETeller account set up].

Are there different Credit Card Limits for players from certain countries?
