Casinos in Ireland that take PayPal
No casino in our data takes PayPal right now.
Why PayPal is rare at the casinos taking Irish players
The reason is in PayPal's own rules. Its Acceptable Use Policy for Ireland puts casino games on its list of "Activities Requiring Approval": a casino needs PayPal's approval before it can take payments, and the policy allows gambling payments only "if the operator and customers are located exclusively in jurisdictions where such activities are permitted by law" (PayPal, policy last updated 17 July 2023, read on 26 September 2026).
That is a high bar for the casinos Irish players are offered today. Ireland has not licensed online casino games yet, so every casino taking players from here is licensed abroad — by Malta, Kahnawake, the Tobique Gaming Commission and Anjouan, among the casinos in our tables. PayPal does not publish which operators it has approved, so we go by the cashiers: none of those we have read lists PayPal with a minimum deposit. A site that shows a PayPal logo in its footer or FAQ but not in its cashier table is not a PayPal casino.
When the GRAI starts licensing casino games, the picture may change. Its applications for gaming licences open "throughout 2027 and 2028"; where the law stands.
Other casino payment methods: MuchBetter, Neteller, Paysafecard and Skrill
| Method | Casinos | Lowest deposit | Bonus eligible |
|---|---|---|---|
| MuchBetter | 1 | €1 7Bit Casino | 0 of 1 |
| Neteller | 2 | €10 JackpotCity | 0 of 2 |
| Paysafecard | 2 | €10 7Bit Casino | 0 of 2 |
| Skrill | 2 | €1 7Bit Casino | 0 of 2 |
Paysafecard is a prepaid voucher, and casinos differ on paying out to it: some send withdrawals back to it, others pay them another way. Check where a withdrawal would go before you pay in — methods you can deposit with but not withdraw to. Apple Pay and Google Pay: no casino in our tables publishes a minimum for either for players in Ireland yet.
Paysafecard, pay by phone, Apple Pay and fast bank transfers
Paysafecard. A voucher bought with cash, so nothing about the deposit touches your bank. Casinos that take it from Irish players in our tables: 7Bit Casino from €10 and JackpotCity from €10. Getting paid is the catch. 7Bit Casino pays out to Paysafecard too, from €10; All Slots says a withdrawal it cannot send back to a prepaid card goes out "by cheque". Methods you can deposit with but not withdraw to.
Pay by phone. None of the cashiers we have read offers pay-by-mobile, Boku or otherwise, for Ireland. Many of the "pay by phone casino" lists that come up in a search are written about British sites and networks, and some sell themselves as casinos "not on GAMSTOP", the UK's self-exclusion scheme. We don't list casinos for getting round a self-exclusion; if that is where you are, the blocks that work in Ireland are the better place to start.
Apple Pay and Google Pay. No casino in our tables publishes an Apple Pay or Google Pay minimum for players in Ireland. Where a cashier does take them, the payment is made with the card stored in the wallet.
Fast bank transfers. No cashier we have read lists Trustly or another instant bank payment with a minimum. Plain bank transfers show up on the way out, and not for small sums: 7Bit Casino from €200 ("1-5 banking days") and KatsuBet from €200 ("0-5 days").
Skrill at €5 and under. The lowest Skrill minimum in our tables is €1, at 7Bit Casino.
PayPal, Revolut or Trustly
PayPal. No casino in our tables publishes a PayPal minimum for Irish players yet. JackpotCity's Irish payments page names PayPal in its FAQ, yet leaves it out of the list of methods with a minimum deposit on the same page.
Trustly. The same goes for Trustly, which JackpotCity lists on its Irish home page: no minimum anywhere in our tables. Where an offer does name these two methods, it names them to shut them out. Betway's offer needs a debit card deposit, so a deposit by PayPal or Trustly gets nothing from it.
Revolut. Revolut is not a separate method in any cashier we read. You pay with the Revolut card, so it goes through as a card payment, at the card minimum — from €10 at JackpotCity. That also means Revolut's gambling block stops it once switched on: the block covers card payments to gambling merchants, though not bank transfers or payments made through third-party apps. How to block gambling payments.
So, for the bonus: a debit card is the one method no offer in our tables excludes. For the lowest minimum, look at the e-wallets in the table above: €1 by MuchBetter at 7Bit Casino, though the bonus there starts at €20.
Questions about PayPal casinos in Ireland
Can I use PayPal at an online casino in Ireland? Not at any casino in our tables. None lists PayPal in its cashier with a minimum deposit. PayPal's own policy makes casino payments depend on its approval and on gambling being legal where both the casino and the player are.
Is there a casino with instant PayPal withdrawals? Not in our tables. Any payout time a casino states is its claim; we show it as that, and we don't test payouts.
Does a PayPal deposit get the bonus? Check the offer: e-wallets are sometimes excluded. Betway's offer is one: it names PayPal among the methods that do not count.
What is the nearest thing to PayPal? An e-wallet such as Skrill or Neteller works the same way, a balance between your bank and the casino, and both appear in the cashiers we read. Or pay by debit card, Revolut's included, and use your bank's gambling controls if you want a limit you can't talk yourself out of.
