Why use Giropay Casinos
The biggest advantage of using Giropay (and similar methods like Trustly) is that you can deposit straight from your online banking account. You don't need a debit card, access to an e-wallet or a special app. This provides many benefits:
- You don't share any financial details with the casino
- Deposited funds are available straight away
- It can be used for payments and withdrawals
- You don't need to sign up for a 3rd party service
- Widely available - 1,500 institutions use the service
Did you know? Giropay processes over one million transactions per month - and is used by over 17 million German banking customers.
Paying direct from your account has obvious benefits - but these services also share a few notable flaws:
- You need to be registered for online banking to use the service
- Limits can apply to deposits and withdrawals - some institutions may also apply a fee
How to deposit using Giropay
