Subject to these General Terms and Conditions, You may withdraw the available funds from Your Account at any time. Funds will remain in Your Account unless and until You submit an online request for an amount up to the outstanding balance to be transferred to the debit card or online payment service with which You originally deposited monies in Your Account.
To withdraw funds from Your Account, visit the Withdrawals page in the Help Centre, or call our Customer Support Team.
Once You have submitted a withdrawal request, You will receive a confirmation message that the transfer has been actioned and the balance of Your Account will then clear to zero or the balance of the amount not withdrawn. If You reduce the balance of Your Account down to zero, to place any further stakes You will need to transfer a minimum deposit of £10 (or other amounts as may be applicable at that time) into Your Account.
Where funds are transferred, they will leave us at the close of business on the working day on which such transfer was requested and will be credited to the debit card or online payment service that You have registered with us. These funds will be subject to a clearance period determined by the card issuing bank (normally 2-5 working days) or online payment service (normally same day).
At our reasonable discretion, requests for withdrawals may be held for approval before being processed.
For further information concerning withdrawing funds, please see the Withdrawals page in the Help Centre. The standard minimum withdrawal amount is £10 or £100 for bank transfers (or its equivalent in another currency) as may be amended from time to time.

Please note that Your bank or card provider may also have restrictions.
We reserve the right to change the minimum and maximum withdrawal levels at our reasonable discretion. We will publish any changes on our websites in accordance with Section 3.2 (Changes to the Terms and Conditions) above.
