Pokerstars offers players a wide range of payment methods. In this article, our team has looked at which e-wallets are available for deposits and withdrawals, as well as limits and conditions. By following our step-by-step guide you will be able to withdraw your winnings from Pokerstars quickly and safe.

How to withdraw funds from Pokerstars

When it comes to online poker, players' first concern is: how do I withdraw money from the poker room? At Pokerstars the process is simple:

Pokerstars Cashier

Go to the "Withdrawal" tab. The window will display the maximum amount available for withdrawal. Please note: This amount may not be the same as your balance*.
Enter the amount you wish to withdraw.
Click the "Withdraw" button. Select your payment method and confirm your request.
You will receive a confirmation email.

A cashout can be canceled before it is processed. To do this, select the transaction in the “Cashier→More→Unprocessed Withdrawals” and confirm the cancellation.

Pokerstars withdrawal options

The list of available payment methods depends on your country of residence. The standard list is usually as follows

Payment	Cashout Limits
Visa	$100 - $5.000
Neteller	$10 - $10,000
Skrill	$10 - $10,000
ecoPayz	$10 - $10,000
MuchBetter	$10 - $10,000
WebMoney	$10 - $1,000

As you can see, depositing and withdrawing using Bitcoins and Cryptocurrencies is not available at Pokerstars.

PayPal at PokerStars

PayPal withdrawals are only available in countries with a regulated poker market, such as the UK.

The funds withdrawal process itself is similar to other electronic payment systems. Current limits can be found in the PokerStars Cashier.

Withdrawal process time

Withdrawals to e-wallets can take up to 72 hours. However, it is usually faster. Transfers to Visa or bank accounts can take between 3 and 10 working days.

Saturdays and Sundays are not included in the withdrawal time.

Limits

The limits depend on your preferred payment method. The default is between $10 and $1,500. However, the maximum limit can be increased by contacting PokerStars support.

For Visa cards, the minimum and maximum payouts are $100 and $5000 respectively.

You can check the current limits in the cashier in the poker room. These may vary depending on your country of registration.

Pokerstars withdrawal policy

In order to withdraw your winnings, you must follow the requirements:

Players must withdraw funds back to the original method by which they deposited. If the account was funded by more than one method, withdrawals will be processed proportionally.
In order to withdraw money transferred by another player, you must generate at least 15% rake from that amount.
Withdrawals can be requested no earlier than 48 hours after your last deposit.
Cashouts to MasterCard cards are not available.

Withdrawal problems: why did my cash out fail?

There are several reasons why Pokerstars may refuse a withdrawal request:

An attempt to make a withdrawal to a payment method that does not have a deposit history.
Incorrect details.
Expired card
The 1-year payment method has expired. In this case, you will need to make a new deposit.
A previous withdrawal has not been processed.
Server error (just retry your request).
Account not verified.
