Deposit Methods
Getting money into your sportsbook account is easy. All Ohio apps accept multiple payment methods, and deposits are typically instant.
Withdrawal Methods & Speed
Withdrawals take longer than deposits. Here's what to expect from each method:
| Method | Processing Time | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| PayPal | Same day - 24 hours | Fastest option |
| Venmo | Same day - 24 hours | Fast, convenient |
| Online Banking | 1-3 business days | Larger amounts |
| Debit Card | 1-3 business days | Back to original deposit method |
| Check by Mail | 5-10 business days | No bank account needed |
PayPal withdrawals are consistently the fastest across all Ohio sportsbooks. FanDuel in particular processes PayPal withdrawals within hours. If fast payouts matter to you, set up PayPal before your first deposit.
First Withdrawal Requirements
Your first withdrawal may require identity verification. Be prepared to provide:
- Photo ID (driver's license or passport)
- Proof of address (utility bill, bank statement)
- Last 4 digits of SSN verification
This is standard KYC (Know Your Customer) required by Ohio law. Once verified, future withdrawals process faster.
Most sportsbooks require you to withdraw via the same method you deposited. If you deposited with a debit card, your first withdrawal goes back to that card. After that, you can use other methods. This prevents fraud.
Tips for Faster Payouts
Verify your account early. Complete ID verification right after signing up — don't wait until your first withdrawal request.
Use e-wallets. PayPal and Venmo consistently process faster than bank transfers or cards.
Check withdrawal limits. Some books have daily/weekly limits. If you're withdrawing a large amount, it may process in batches.
Avoid weekends and holidays. Withdrawals initiated Friday afternoon won't process until Monday. Plan ahead for large withdrawals.
