How to deposit on GGPoker: methods, minimums and fees

A GGPoker deposit takes about a minute: open the Cashier in the client or app, choose Deposit, pick a method and confirm the amount. On the global site most methods start at $10, cards and most e-wallets credit almost instantly, and crypto arrives as soon as the blockchain confirms the transfer. Which methods you see depends on your country (see GGPoker countries for which site covers yours), and a few of them carry a fee that the cashier shows before you confirm.

This guide covers how to deposit on GGPoker step by step, every common method with its minimum and fee, how to send crypto without losing it, and which deposit amount unlocks which bonus.

How to deposit on GGPoker

The steps are the same in the desktop client and the app; only the button positions differ. If you have not opened an account yet, start with how to sign up on GGPoker.

1. Open the Cashier. Click the Cashier button in the client or tap the balance in the app, then pick the Deposit tab.
2. Choose the welcome offer. On your first deposit GG asks you to choose the 100% match or the rewards package. You only get to pick once.
3. Pick a payment method. The list shows only methods available in your country.
4. Enter the amount. The cashier shows the maximum and any fee next to the amount.
5. Confirm with the provider. Log in to the e-wallet, approve the card payment or send the crypto, and the money appears in your balance.

Fees show up at step 4, before anything is charged. The screenshot below shows how that looks for a $100 Skrill deposit.

GGPoker deposit methods

The global GGPoker.com cashier offers the longest list. Local sites in the UK, Ontario, the Netherlands and other licensed markets have their own, usually shorter, menus and no crypto. The table covers the methods most players see on the global site; the cashier always has the final word on what is available to you.

Cards

Visa and Mastercard work on almost every GG cashier without a GGPoker fee, which makes them the default choice for many players. They are also the method most likely to be declined, because many banks refuse gambling transactions automatically. A declined card is usually a decision by your bank, not by GG.

E-wallets

E-wallets keep poker money separate from your bank account and are quick both ways. The costs differ: Skrill and Neteller add 3% at deposit, so $200 costs $206, while Luxon Pay deposits carry no GGPoker fee. MuchBetter, MiFinity, AstroPay and Paysafecard appear in some countries; Paysafecard is a voucher, so it works for deposits but not for withdrawals.

Crypto

The global site accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC), with the stablecoins available on more than one blockchain network. GG charges no deposit fee on crypto; the only cost is the network fee your wallet or exchange takes. Speed depends on the chain: Tron and Solana transfers settle in seconds, Bitcoin can take longer than a card payment.

Local methods

Some methods appear only on local sites. PayPal is offered on GGPoker.co.uk in the UK, Interac e-Transfer on GGPoker.ca in Ontario, and iDEAL on the Dutch site, where the minimum is €10 and other methods start at €5. Players in Brazil can use Pix. If you play on a local site, your account runs in that site’s currency.

Crypto deposits without mistakes

Crypto is the one method where a typo or a wrong menu choice can cost the whole deposit. The rule is simple: the coin and the network you choose in the GG cashier must be the same ones you send from your wallet. The diagram shows what happens in each case.

1. Start in the cashier. Choose Deposit, the coin and the network, and enter the amount. Only then copy the address GG shows.
2. Match the network in your wallet. If the cashier says USDT TRC-20, send USDT on Tron, not on Ethereum or BNB Chain.
3. Cover the minimum after fees. Exchanges take their withdrawal fee from the amount you send, so add it on top; a transfer that arrives below GG’s minimum may not be credited.
4. Send from your own wallet. Use a wallet or exchange account in your name; GG pays crypto withdrawals back the same way.

A transfer sent on the wrong network, to an old address or without starting a deposit in the cashier may never reach your balance, and blockchain transfers cannot be reversed. If it happens, write to support straight away with the transaction ID, the coin, the network and the amount. Recovery is not guaranteed.

Minimums, limits and fees

The minimum deposit on GGPoker depends on the site you play on. On GGPoker.com most methods start at $10, the Dutch site uses €5 and €10, and crypto minimums are set by the network, so a Tron transfer can be smaller than a Bitcoin one. The cashier only shows the exact minimum once you try to go below it.

Maximums are shown next to the amount field for each method; the Skrill screen above, for example, allows up to $10,000 per deposit. Fees follow the same logic. Where GG charges one, the cashier adds it before you confirm, as with the 3% on Skrill and Neteller. Your card issuer or exchange may add its own charges on top, and those GG does not show.

On the global site your balance is held in US dollars. If you pay in another currency, the conversion happens on your side, at your bank’s or wallet’s rate, which is worth comparing if you deposit often.

Which deposit unlocks which bonus

Several GG promotions are tied to deposit amounts, so the size of your first payment can decide what you get. The table lists the thresholds during our check (November 2026).

You get one welcome offer, not both. Deposits in your first 60 days count towards the $600 match, so a small first deposit does not cap it. The full terms are on our GGPoker bonus page (how match bonuses work in general is in our guide to first-deposit bonuses), and the free tickets that need no deposit at all are covered in the GGPoker no deposit bonus guide.

Pick a method you can withdraw to

GG uses a closed loop: money goes out the way it came in. If you deposit with Skrill, your withdrawal goes back to Skrill, and methods you have never deposited with stay greyed out in the withdrawal tab. A method that only works for deposits, such as Paysafecard, means you will need another route for cashing out.

Withdrawals also need a verified account. Doing the identity check right after sign-up, rather than at your first cashout, avoids a payout sitting in a queue; see our guide to GGPoker verification. Withdrawal methods, minimums and timing are covered in withdrawing from GGPoker.

Choose your deposit method with the withdrawal in mind. A player who expects to cash out often is better served by an e-wallet or crypto they already use than by a card their bank may not accept payouts to.

Why a deposit fails

When a deposit does not go through, the cause is usually one of these:

• Your bank declined it. Many banks block gambling payments. Try an e-wallet or ask the bank whether it allows them.
• The name does not match. The card, e-wallet or exchange account has to be in the same name as your GG account.
• You hit a limit. Either your own deposit limit or the method’s maximum for the day.
• The method is not offered in your country. Pick another one from the list your cashier shows.
• Crypto went wrong. Wrong network, below the minimum after exchange fees, or sent to an address from an old deposit.

If none of these applies, contact support with the time, amount and method; for crypto, include the transaction ID.

Once the money is in, every raked hand counts towards Ocean Rewards rakeback from your first session.

Deposit limits and responsible gaming

GG lets you cap your own deposits for 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days in the cashier settings. Once you reach a limit, further deposits are blocked until the period ends.

Set the limit before your first session, at an amount you would be comfortable losing in that period. GG’s responsible gaming settings also include cool-off periods and self-exclusion. More on why limits help is on our responsible gambling page.
