Credit cards were once one of the most popular payment methods for online sports betting due to their simplicity and convenience. However, since 2020 UK bettors can no longer deposit with a credit card. At MaxFreeBets we explain the ban and cover a wide range of safe alternatives including debit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Trustly and Bitcoin.

We never want to put the safety of your personal details at risk, so any online betting site recommended by us is regulated by the UKGC — which means they do NOT accept credit card deposits or withdrawals.
Since 14 April 2020, the use of credit cards for online gambling has been banned completely in the United Kingdom. This decision was made by the UK Gambling Commission after a full review of online gambling.
The main reason behind the decision arose during research showing that around 22% of the 800,000 people who used credit cards to gamble online were classed as problem gamblers. Debit cards and e-wallets are the recommended alternatives.
