How to deposit to Betfair in banned countries 2021

[TimeTeller]

Good suggestion by @SyGambler, at least you are gambling in a legit way, but it comes with fees I guess, I'm just guessing as I have never used this kind of kind of service (betting brokers) before but they do exist so consider it a good option.

That is more tangible solution in the OP's problem if he really wants to play on this specific site.
But if he chooses to use VPN, he needs to ask from the site itself if they are allowing such use as this may just got him into trouble.
Otherwise, look for other popular sites here that will not bring any problem regarding his location.
Also, I think this topic should be in the gambling discussion board - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=228.0

I have a betfair account for a few year, however, as some policy modified recently, I cannot deposit to betfair. It is being too difficult to deposit money to Betfair now in some banned counties,
So any buddy have any idea of deposit money from some banned countries? Please sharing.   

Well, I never went through that.
I don't know if using a VPN or changing its location in the site settings would work. If Betfair has placed restrictions on your location they have reason to have done so.

Have you tried to contact Betfair support ??! They can probably solve your problem.

Where are you from? I suggest you to check if Flutter Entertainment owns any casino in your country. Flutter is a company that owns Paddy Power and this last one owns BetFair. There are some countries where official Betfair's URL is banned but if there is casino/sportsbook in your location owned by them, then you are lucky and will be able to use almost all of their service on another website that will be owned by them.

You can see the list of these online casinos/sportsbook here: https://www.flutter.com/our-business/our-brands

If there policy has been revised and your cou try has been banned on them then stop playing at them since if you insist to play there you will might get a problem in future if the management find out that you play in the forbidden country. Using VPN might work temporarily but what I can suggest to you is to look for another casino which doesn't ban your country so that you will not get any huge problem.

As suggested using VPN is the only option if you wanna keep using Betfair from banned countries. There are several risks that can cause bad consequences, the ban probability increases if you can not prove the identity with required KYC documents. Another risk is a leaked IP address, you know there is no guarantee you will forever stay on the same user agent or IP address. Even a single leak can raise a flag and bingo: The new email from Betfair support asks for the identity verification with a video call. Be careful if you gonna try any of the mentioned methods with a big amount.

Is it really necessary to just use BetFair? Why not jump to other sites to save you from the trouble?

Don't use VPN. It can give you more problems. Just choose other sites that suits you.

There is no point in using a VPN because even if you manage to make a deposit you most likely won't be able to make a withdrawal. Depending on the method, deposits are instant so they don't check every deposit manually. Not the same thing can be said about withdrawals since every single withdrawal is checked manually by their team. They'll notice the method you used for deposit and instantly figure out something is wrong. Your account will be locked because of the violation of their policies and you'll lose all the money you have deposited. The only thing I don't understand is why isn't your account locked already since you can't deposit money, what are you supposed to do with your account then?

Just choose a different website and don't waste your money and time trying to deposit on a website that restricts you doing that.

This isn't entirely true based on my experience. VPNs are effective sometimes and solve the ban restriction entirely since I have personally used them on several occasions without any issues related to deposits, withdrawals etc.

However, I chat with live support and inform them that I am using a VPN to access their site before proceeding to do so. This guarantees minimal issues in the future.

VPNs do help in many ways, but skipping all these steps and utilising alternate sites is still a better option as I mentioned in my earlier post.

Why focus on Betfair when there are so many Gambling sites that has been legal in your country or the countries that you wanted to play with?

You can use VPN to Mask your country IP address but mind you that Gambling sites nowadays has many tools to Unmasked those who are using VPN so at some chances you will be banned forever and may made your funds permanently frozen.

So better think twice to continue following them or Find new sites to start your luck in gambling.

Its funny how this argument comes up again and again.
Betfair is not just some gambling site. Betfair is the biggest betting exchange there is.
You cant compare it to a regular bookie as the system is totally different.

Most "comparable" betting exchanges only have a small % of the liquidity most markets at betfair have.

But even how Big they are and popular and Best , Yet the problem is that they are banning some countries in which OP is on the list , If He will continue trying to Hide His Location or His IP address so the more he is risking the event.

and besides Even they are one of the biggest yet? there are others that can bring their Bets in reputable Bookies .

because a lot of people isn't really familiar with what Betfair is. even I didn't know that Betfair is so much different than other bookies/gambling site that you can't compare it with them and that is why I suggested to the OP to just let it go and find another bookies/gambling site. but since SyGambler suggested a good solution it might be better if OP followed what SyGambler suggested if he wanted to keep using Betfair.

To finish the argument of VPN, this wont work, I know that for a fact.
You have to do KYC at Betfair. If your country gets banned and you move a to a new country you have to do KYC again.

I know that because I went through this. I am German national and from 2006-2010 played at betfair from Germany. Then they banned all German residents because of our betting tax bs. So I wasn't able to play anymore.

2016 I moved to Japan and was able to reopen my account but had to prove I am actually living in Japan, so yet another KYC.

Just changing your IP wont do you any good. If they ban the country they ban all the players from that area unless he can prove he moved to a non banned territory.

[spyrosc200]

you are asking for troubles.

In best case you will only get your deposits back.

Better look for betfair white label like orbit

maybe he was Looking for ENLIGHTENMENT and all the facts and advises Given here will be enough for OP to understand what he is asking for.

like what the Post above says , it will never be possible unless he can prove of changing country and that can make Him Play and gamble again in that Bookie.


And for OP i think its better to Lock this thread  because answered has been given

If you want to play safely and you don't want to compromise any of your money then it is better to stay away from platforms that are banning your country because even if you will use a VPN in order to bypass their restriction but you are still in disadvantage if they will found out that you are a user from a banned countries as they will surely to confiscate or freeze your money in their platform.

If you don't want this to happen to you then it will be better if you will avoid those platforms that are restricting your country to use their services. There are many similar platforms out there that fully welcome you, so it is better if you will use them instead.

It is better to stay away from sites where they banned your country because you can search online and you can find many users complaining about not getting their wins because they claim that the country is on the banned list and even if you bypass they might do a KYC just to find any loopholes. Why going through that kind of trouble, find a site that does not have any issues with you country .

Better to find alternative sites where you can enjoy your betting activities without any hassles at the end, instead of finding ways to bypass rules from Betfair where the risk is too high.

As once the site finds out everything will be freeze and you won't be able to do deal with it as rules are clear regarding to the implementations of ban countries, if yours is one of those places then best to pick another reputable sites as there are many good
site to check especially inside crypto gambling house.

if i didnt search betfair on the net i wont know this .

 i wont know that they are big and older than what we commonly know and they are u.s regulated , thats makes them strict  but thats not a reason to not compare them to the betting exchange that we know because betfair dont accept cryptocurrencies and that is their biggest disadvantage .

the op shouldnt post this question if it not related to crypto because this forum are for cryptocurrency discussions .

If they don't allow players from your country, it's best to just find another casino. Because if you manage to deposit and even win something, you can get caught during withdrawal, and then they would be right not to process the withdrawal. Some suggested VPN, but of course it can be noticed by the casino, and they might not be okay with it (be sure to read what their stance on this matter is). Another option is a betting broker (if one offers bets on Betfair), which might even make the whole thing legal, but then you'll need to pay additional fees and play with serious amounts of money.
I really think the easiest and the most appropriate thing to do is to choose something other than Betfair.

I think it really depends what is the reason behind you being unable to use a certain deposit/withdrawal method. Some websites simply restrict using certain payment methods in different countries, so using a VPN won't change anything since your identity is verified in one of those countries.

An example where I think VPN would be allowed is when you go abroad and want to use your usual payment methods but they are not available in that country. Even in this case, the best thing to do is contact their support and ask them if that's allowed.
