Scored on terms, not on the headline bonus
The score comes from wagering rules, withdrawals, verification and licence – not from the biggest advertised percentage.
Payout methods in comparison
Which methods are available depends largely on whether you are playing at a Swiss or a foreign casino. The duration refers to the time after approval by the casino and is an empirical value, not a promise.
| method | Deposit | Payout | Duration after release | Good to know |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TWINT | ✔ immediately | depending on the casino | immediately up to 1 day | Widely used in Swiss casinos, rare abroad. More about TWINT |
| PostFinance (Card / E-Finance) | ✔ immediately | mostly via bank transfer | 1-2 banking days | Available at many Swiss casinos |
| Bank transfer | ✔ 0-2 days | ✔ | 1-3 banking days | Standard for withdrawals at ESBK casinos, account must be in your name |
| Visa/Mastercard | ✔ immediately | partially | 1-5 banking days | Some banks block gambling transactions |
| Paysafecard | ✔ immediately | ✖ | – | You only need a second method to deposit and withdraw |
| E-wallets (Skrill, Neteller, etc.) | ✔ immediately | ✔ | Minutes to 24 hours | Especially at foreign casinos, they are often excluded from the bonus |
| Crypto (BTC, ETH, USDT among others) | ✔ Minutes | ✔ | Minutes to a few hours | Only with foreign providers, pay attention to exchange rate risk and network fees |
You can find information about specific casinos in our test reports. The provider’s checkout area is always binding.
Before making your first deposit, check whether your deposit method also works for withdrawals. Paysafecard and many card payments are only possible in one direction; the casino will then pay out to another method which must be confirmed first. If you choose a method right from the start that can do both and is in your own name, you will avoid additional checks when making your first payout.

This is how a payout works
Open checkout area
Select the method under “Cashier”, “Wallet” or “Withdrawal”. In most cases it has to be the same method as the deposit (“closed loop”).
Enter amount
Note the minimum and maximum amount. If a bonus is still active, it often expires when you request a withdrawal.
“Pending” status
The casino checks identity, payment method, bonus wagering and game history.
Release
After approval, the casino transfers the payment to the bank, wallet or blockchain.
Credit
Check the entrance. In the event of delays, a transaction ID helps with inquiries.

| phase | Swiss Casino (ESBK) | Foreign casino |
|---|---|---|
| First payout | Account is already verified as identification is required by law | Often only now KYC check, can take days |
| Internal audit | Usually a few hours to 2 working days | From immediately to 3-5 business days, depending on the provider |
| Payment method | Transfer to your own account, 1-3 banking days | Crypto/e-wallet fast, card/bank 1-5 days |
| Big wins | Withholding tax above the exemption amount will be deducted | Partial payout in installments (weekly/monthly limit) |
Information such as “immediately” or “up to 24 hours” almost always only refers to part of the process: either to the processing in the casino or to the duration of the payment service. At our partner casinos, according to partner offers and terms and conditions, the range ranges from immediate crypto and e-wallet payouts at Drakaris to 72 hours of processing plus 3-5 working days banking time at Spininio. Ritzo only processes withdrawals on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. For the first payout, also allow for the time required for verification.
Limits and Fees
Almost every casino sets minimum and maximum amounts. You should know these points before making your first deposit:
- Minimum payout: often between CHF/EUR 10 and 50.
- Maximum amount per transaction, day, week or month: Monthly limits are common for foreign providers; large winnings are then paid out in installments. Progressive jackpots are often excluded.
- Winning limit from bonuses: With free spins and no-deposit bonuses, the amount that can be withdrawn is often limited (see Casino Bonus).
- Fees: Reputable casinos usually do not charge any fees. However, fees are possible for crypto (network), for foreign currencies (your bank's exchange rate) or for withdrawals without prior wagering of the deposit.
- Unverified account (Switzerland): A provisional account allows deposits up to a maximum of CHF 1,000, but no withdrawal of winnings until identity is confirmed.
Limits play a role, especially when it comes to larger winnings. At WinSpirit, the limit according to the terms and conditions is €2,000 per week, at Spininio it is €3,000 per rolling seven days. Anyone who wins €10,000 there will receive the amount in parts over several weeks. Therefore, read the limits before making a deposit, not after winning, and keep the confirmations of each partial withdrawal.
Common reasons for delayed payouts
ID, proof of address or proof of payment is incomplete or illegible.
The wagering is not fulfilled, or a stake was above the permitted maximum.
The payout usually has to be made using the same method or an account in your name.
Many payment departments and banks only work on weekdays.
For large amounts, casinos require proof of the source of funds (payslip, bank statement).
Without a Swiss license, you have no official complaints office in Switzerland. Winnings are not guaranteed.
If a payout is stalled, ask support in writing about the specific reason and about the missing documents. Submit requested documents completely and all at once instead of submitting them one at a time. Record the date, amount and transaction ID. At casinos with an ESBK license, you can contact the supervisory authority if you have unresolved problems; For foreign providers, the only option is usually to complain to the licensor abroad.
Taxes on casino winnings
Winnings from online casinos with a Swiss license are tax-free up to CHF 1,071,000 per win in 2026. Above this allowance, the provider deducts 35% withholding tax. Winnings from foreign online casinos without a Swiss license, on the other hand, are taxable as income, without an allowance (source: FTA).
7 tips for quick withdrawals
- Verify your account immediately after registration, not just when you win for the first time.
- Use the same method for deposits and withdrawals in your name.
- If you plan to pay out quickly, forego the bonus.
- Read the limits and processing times in the terms and conditions before making a deposit.
- Request payouts early on weekdays.
- Save screenshots of account balance, application and chat history.
- Do not reclaim pending withdrawals and continue playing.
Frequently asked questions about withdrawals
How long does a withdrawal take in an online casino?
The total duration consists of the internal check by the casino (often a few hours to 3 working days) and the term of the payment service. Bank transfers usually take 1-3 banking days, while e-wallets and crypto often only take minutes to hours. The first payout usually takes the longest due to verification.
Can I withdraw via TWINT?
That depends on the casino. Many Swiss providers accept TWINT for deposits, but withdrawals are often made via bank transfer to your own account. Whether TWINT payouts are possible is stated in the cashier area of the casino. Find out more on our Casino with TWINT page.
Why is my withdrawal rejected?
The most common reasons are incomplete verification, failure to meet bonus conditions, withdrawal to an account not in your name, or violation of the maximum bet during an active bonus. Ask support for the specific reason and get it in writing.
Why do I have to verify myself before the first withdrawal?
Casinos must ensure that the money goes to the right, adult person and does not come from money laundering. That's why the casino checks your ID, address and payment method before the first payout at the latest. At Swiss casinos, identification is mandatory when opening an account. Foreign providers often only check the first withdrawal request, which can extend the waiting time by days. More about this under Casino Verification.
Can I cancel a withdrawal?
Many foreign casinos allow you to recover a pending withdrawal and continue playing. If you tend to play impulsively, you should avoid this feature or have it deactivated in your account if possible.
Do I have to pay tax on casino winnings?
Winnings from online casinos with a Swiss license are tax-free up to CHF 1,071,000 per win in 2026. Winnings from foreign online casinos without a Swiss license are taxable as income. If in doubt, ask your cantonal tax office.
What is the fastest withdrawal method?
For foreign casinos, crypto and e-wallets are the fastest after release. At Swiss casinos, bank transfer to your own account is the standard and usually takes 1-3 banking days. You will save the most time if you verify yourself before making your first withdrawal.
