Skrill Casinos in the UK
Skrill is an e-wallet: you load money into a Skrill balance and pay the casino from that balance instead of from your card or bank. 16 of the 45 licensed casinos in the UK section of this site accept it, and 8 of the 16 confirm in their terms that winnings can be paid into it.
This page also carries what applies to e-wallets in general: how the UK rules treat a wallet, and why an offer can leave wallet deposits out. Skrill's sister wallet, with its own list of casinos, has a shorter page on Neteller casinos.
How Skrill Works With a UK Casino
Skrill Limited, incorporated in England, holds FCA authorisation under the Electronic Money Regulations 2011 to issue e-money, with firm reference number 900001. It is part of Paysafe, the group that also owns Neteller.
Each time you add money, Skrill asks whether it is for gambling or for something else, and that label cannot be changed afterwards. Decide before topping up, because a sum marked non-gambling stays that way.
Skrill also says that money deposited with a credit card cannot be used on UK gambling sites, and that a UK-issued credit card cannot be used for gambling anywhere. Why the UK ban follows card money into a wallet is set out on the debit card casinos page.
The rule: A Skrill balance is only as usable at a casino as the money that funded it, so load it from a debit card or straight from your bank and mark the sum for gambling.

What Each Casino Says About Skrill
The rows quote each casino's own terms for Skrill. A Not stated cell means those terms skip the point, which leaves an open question for the casino rather than a refusal.
E-Wallets and Welcome Offers
Some casinos leave e-wallet deposits out of their welcome offers. No UK rule, and no guidance from the Gambling Commission, names Skrill or any other payment method as an exclusion a casino may or may not apply.
What the rules do govern is how the exclusion is shown. Every significant condition of a promotion, a group that covers who is excluded, time limits, how to qualify, the maximum stake and wagering, must appear in the advert itself and next to the headline offer on landing and sign-up pages. A banner may not lead straight to sign-up without them. A rule that a Skrill deposit does not qualify is such a condition, so you should be able to see it before you register, not only in the full terms.
In short: If an offer shuts Skrill out, the casino must say so beside the headline offer, before you sign up.
14 of the 16 casinos here state a welcome offer, 9 built on free spins and five on a deposit match. Whether a Skrill deposit qualifies is decided offer by offer and can change whenever the offer does, so check on the day you join. Wagering on any UK bonus is now capped at 10 times, a rule the £10 deposit casinos page explains.
Skrill Settings Worth Knowing
Skrill can stop payments to gambling sites from your balance. The switch is under Settings, then Verification & features, then Spending control. Switching it back off takes effect only after 48 hours, so a decision made in a calm moment cannot be reversed on impulse.
Because the gambling label is fixed when you add funds, separate top-ups for casino play keep a clean record of what went to gambling, and money meant for bills never ends up marked for a casino by mistake.
When a casino's terms say nothing about paying out to Skrill, a short message to support answers it before any money moves. The casinos marked Yes in the comparison already give that answer in their terms.
Skrill at UK Casinos: Pros and Cons
Select an option to sort the items by category or impact.
Advantages
Your card or bank only meets the wallet
The casino is paid from the Skrill balance, so the card or account behind it is used to top up Skrill and nothing else. 36% of the UK-licensed casinos on this site accept the wallet.
Rarely the only wallet on offer
A casino that lists Skrill usually lists more. The methods most often found beside it are Neteller (15), Apple Pay (13), PayPal (13), Mastercard (12), Paysafecard (12), each figure counting how many of the 16 casinos take that method.
Disadvantages
Skrill minimums can sit higher
Among the five casinos that set a minimum for Skrill specifically, the typical one is £20, while the usual minimum these casinos set for deposits in general is £10.
The payout route is often unstated
Being able to deposit with Skrill does not settle how you are paid. 8 of the 16 casinos here are silent on Skrill withdrawals.
Impact Analysis
Skrill Casinos FAQ
Yes. Nothing in the UK rules bars e-wallets as such. What is barred is credit-card money passing through one, and a casino may accept a wallet only if that wallet stops credit-card funds from reaching gambling.
The wallet's own rules are a common cause. Skrill refuses gambling payments from money that came from a credit card, and funds labelled non-gambling at top-up cannot be redirected later. Check how the balance was loaded and labelled before contacting the casino.
Possibly. No UK rule requires a withdrawal to go back to the method you deposited with, so each casino's own payment terms decide. Where they are silent, ask support which routes your account can use.
On the casino side, one of the 16 casinos here states a fee position for Skrill, and one of those says it charges nothing. Anything Skrill itself charges for moving money is in its own fee terms, separate from the casino's.
A time is given by eight of the 16 casinos, from instant once approved to a business day of processing followed by another before the money lands. In every case the casino's approval comes first.
It can be: two of the 16 casinos put a floor under Skrill withdrawals in their terms, typically £12.50. The rest leave it to their general cashier rules.
