How Money Moves at Weedspin

PayID: the fastest way in

PayID is built on Australia's New Payments Platform, so it settles differently to a standard bank transfer. Instead of routing through BSB and account number, you link your phone number or email to your bank account once, then use that as your PayID at Weedspin. Deposits made this way typically land in your Weedspin balance in under a minute, any time of day, weekends included. There's no need to wait for banking hours because NPP runs around the clock.

Most Australian banks, including the big four and most regional and digital banks, support PayID natively through their app. If you've paid a mate back with PayID before, the flow at Weedspin will feel identical. Minimum and maximum deposit limits are set out at the cashier, and PayID is generally the method with the highest instant limit of the AUD options on offer.

POLi: bank login, no card needed

POLi lets you pay directly from your online banking without entering card numbers or setting up a new payee. You choose POLi at the Weedspin cashier, select your bank, log in through your bank's own secure page and confirm the transfer. Because it's a real-time bank transfer rather than a card authorisation, POLi deposits usually clear in one to two minutes and avoid the credit-card cash-advance fees some banks apply to gambling transactions.

POLi works with most major Australian banks. If your bank isn't listed, PayID or a card deposit will do the same job.

Cards: Visa and Mastercard

Visa and Mastercard deposits post instantly in the vast majority of cases. Worth knowing: some Australian card issuers still code online casino transactions as a cash advance rather than a standard purchase, which can trigger a different interest rate or a small handling fee from your bank, not from Weedspin. Check your card's terms if you're unsure. Card withdrawals, where offered, take longer than deposits because the reversal has to go back through the same banking rails, typically a few business days once approved.

Bank transfer

A standard bank transfer using BSB and account number is available for players who'd rather not use PayID or POLi. It's the slowest of the fiat options, generally one to three business days to clear on deposit, and similar on withdrawal, since it depends on standard interbank processing rather than NPP's instant rails.

Crypto: Bitcoin, Ethereum and Tether

Weedspin also accepts Bitcoin, Ethereum and Tether. Deposits convert to your AUD balance at the prevailing rate the moment the transaction confirms on-chain, so your pokies balance and bonus tracking stay in AUD throughout. You're not gambling with a floating crypto balance.

Withdrawals in crypto work in reverse: you request a payout in AUD, Weedspin converts it to your chosen coin at the time of processing, and sends it to the wallet address on file. Network confirmation times vary by coin, Bitcoin generally takes longer to confirm than Tether or Ethereum depending on network congestion, but crypto withdrawals sidestep weekend and public holiday delays that can affect bank-based payouts. For players who want a payout that doesn't wait on Monday morning banking hours, it's usually the quickest route out.

Verification and processing times

Before your first withdrawal, Weedspin runs a standard identity check, an ID document and sometimes a proof of address. This is a one-time step. Once verified, most PayID and POLi-linked withdrawals are approved and released within a few hours during support hours, with crypto payouts often close behind depending on network confirmation. Bank transfer and card withdrawals sit on the slower end simply because of how those systems process, not because Weedspin holds them back.

• PayID: near-instant deposits, fast withdrawal release once approved
• POLi: one to two minute deposits, no card details required
• Visa/Mastercard: instant deposits, multi-day withdrawal processing
• Bank transfer: one to three business days both ways
• Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether: fast deposits, withdrawal speed depends on network confirmation

Keep bonus terms in mind

If you've claimed a welcome package or free spins, wagering requirements attach to that bonus balance before it can be withdrawn. Check the Bonus page for the current offer and full T&Cs before choosing how you deposit, since some promos are tied to specific payment methods. T&Cs apply.
