Deposits, withdrawals and transaction security at Ivy
Last updated: November 1, 2026
This page goes beyond the basics covered on our homepage. Here we set out exactly how deposits and withdrawals work at Ivy, what limits apply, how long payouts take, and how we keep every transaction secure.
Every account at Ivy runs in GBP. You deposit in pounds, your balance shows in pounds and withdrawals are paid back in pounds, which means no currency conversion fees eating into your winnings and no mental arithmetic when you check a bonus threshold or a withdrawal limit. If you fund your account with a cryptocurrency, the sterling equivalent is calculated at the point the transaction clears, so you always know where you stand in GBP terms.
Payment methods we support
We support the payment rails UK players actually use day to day: Visa and Mastercard for straightforward card deposits, bank transfer for players who prefer to move money directly from their current account, Revolut for instant transfers, and major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT for players who want speed and an extra layer of privacy.
| Method | Typical deposit range | Typical withdrawal time | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visa | Low minimum, generous maximum | Standard processing window, check account for current figure | Widely used, instant deposit |
| Mastercard | Low minimum, generous maximum | Standard processing window, check account for current figure | Same-day deposit crediting |
| Bank Transfer | Higher minimum than cards | Longer than card or crypto, allow a few business days | Good for larger withdrawals |
| Revolut | Low minimum, flexible maximum | Fast, often same day | Instant deposit confirmation |
| Bitcoin | Low minimum in GBP equivalent | Fastest of all methods | Subject to network confirmation times |
| Ethereum | Low minimum in GBP equivalent | Fast | Subject to network confirmation times |
| USDT | Low minimum in GBP equivalent | Fast | Stable value reduces conversion swings |
How withdrawals are processed
When you request a withdrawal, it first goes through an internal review. This is standard across the industry and exists to confirm the request matches the account and the funds available. Once that review clears, processing time depends on the method you chose. Cryptocurrency withdrawals are generally the fastest because they do not depend on banking hours. Card withdrawals follow your card issuer's own processing window. Bank transfers and Revolut sit between the two, with bank transfer usually taking the longest because it passes through the UK banking network.
- Withdrawals are usually paid back to the same method you used to deposit, where that method supports payouts.
- Crypto withdrawals require the wallet address you provide to match the currency selected, so double-check before confirming.
- Large withdrawals may be processed in stages depending on the method and any limits in place at the time.
- You can track the status of a withdrawal request from your account history at any point.
Keeping transactions secure
Every deposit and withdrawal at Ivy runs over an encrypted connection between your device and our servers. Card details are handled through secure payment processors rather than stored on our own systems in raw form, and crypto transactions settle on-chain, giving you a public, verifiable record of every movement. We also monitor account activity for patterns that suggest unauthorised access, such as login attempts from unfamiliar locations shortly before a withdrawal request, and we will pause a transaction if something looks inconsistent with your usual activity.
Account verification plays a part in transaction security too. While registration itself is quick, we may ask for identity documents before releasing a withdrawal, particularly for larger amounts or when a payment method is used for the first time. This protects your funds as much as it protects us, and it is a standard practice across licensed and regulated payment processing, not something unique to Ivy.
A note on currency and crypto volatility
Because your Ivy balance is always shown in GBP, a deposit made in Bitcoin or Ethereum is converted to a sterling value at the moment it clears. If the crypto market moves significantly between the time you send funds and the time the transaction confirms on the blockchain, the GBP value credited to your account reflects the rate at confirmation, not the rate when you hit send. This is standard for crypto payments generally and worth keeping in mind if you deposit during a period of high volatility.

Deposits, withdrawals and transaction security at Ivy
What is the minimum deposit at Ivy?
Minimums vary by payment method, with cards and crypto generally allowing a lower minimum than bank transfer. The exact current figure for each method is shown in your account cashier before you confirm a deposit.
How long do withdrawals take at Ivy?
Cryptocurrency withdrawals are typically fastest. Card withdrawals follow your card issuer's own timeline. Bank transfer and Revolut sit in between, with bank transfer usually the slowest because it passes through the UK banking network. All times depend on an internal review clearing first.
Can I deposit and withdraw in GBP if I pay with crypto?
Yes. Your account balance is always shown in GBP. Crypto deposits are converted to a sterling value when the transaction clears, and crypto withdrawals are converted from your GBP balance at the point you request them.
Is there a fee for using Revolut or bank transfer?
Ivy does not add a markup for using any supported method, though your own bank or provider may apply its own charges depending on your account terms. Check your provider's fee schedule if you are unsure.
Why might a withdrawal be delayed?
Delays usually come from the internal review stage, a request for identity verification on a large or first-time withdrawal, or normal processing times on the banking network for methods like bank transfer. Crypto delays are usually down to network confirmation times outside our control.
