Deposit and payout are different directions

A gambling block is normally designed to prevent an outgoing payment from being used to gamble. Whether it affects incoming money depends on the bank or wallet and the payment route.

Provider controlPublished direction detail
Bank card blocksOften described as blocks on identified card spending; bank terms control

Neteller gambling blockProvider says payouts from gambling merchants to Neteller are not blocked
Paysafecard gambling blockProvider help says payouts can still be received; product availability varies
PayPal Gambling BlockApplies to eligible payments identified as gambling; check PayPal's current scope

Provider statements do not guarantee an operator supports that payout route. If an expected payout is missing, check the operator status and ask the bank or wallet whether it can receive the transaction. Do not make another deposit or change routes to test the block.

FAQ

Does a bank gambling block freeze my account?

A gambling block is not automatically a full account freeze, but provider controls differ. Read your bank's terms.

Can I receive a payout to a wallet while the block is on?

Skrill and Neteller publish that their blocks do not stop payouts from gambling merchants. That does not mean every merchant or account can use the wallet for payouts.
