Such limitation shall not apply to verified progressive jackpot winnings derived from Restricted Funds.

30.4 Withdrawal Policy Overview
In this policy, we set out how you can withdraw funds from your account, the payment methods to which withdrawals will be processed and additional terms that may apply to you on requesting a withdrawal. For assistance with any aspect of your withdrawal, please contact us.
Can I reverse a withdrawal request? Once your withdrawal request is submitted (by clicking the ‘Confirm withdrawal’ button in the Site cashier) we will attempt to process such withdrawal request within one business day unless you cancel your withdrawal request prior, to your withdrawal request being processed by us.
How will I receive funds once I have requested a withdrawal?
How we pay you requested amounts will depend on the payment method(s) used by you previously to make deposit(s) and the amounts that you have deposited using those payment method(s). Your “Transaction Balance” for each payment method (other than those detailed in ‘Are there any deposit methods that do not have a Transaction Balance?’) is the total sum that you have deposited into your account via that method, less any previous withdrawals and/or refunds made to the same payment method. When you request a withdrawal of more than your total Transaction Balance (aggregated across all relevant payment methods), the remainder is what we call the “Remaining Withdrawal Balance”. For example, if you deposited £/$/€250 in total and requested to withdraw £/$/€450, your Transaction Balance would be £/$/€250 and your Remaining Withdrawal Balance would be £/$/€200.
When you request a withdrawal, amounts equaling the Transaction Balance of each payment method will be paid automatically to the applicable payment method(s). Your Remaining Withdrawal Balance will be paid to the payment method you select from those available in the withdrawal page in the cashier.
By way of example, if on:
Monday you deposited £/$/€100 by Visa debit card;
Wednesday you deposited another £/$/€50 by Visa debit card;
Thursday you deposited £/$/€50 by Wire Transfer;
Friday you deposited £/$/€50 by PayPal; and
your total Transaction Balance would equal £/$/€250, which would be allocated to each payment method as follows:
the Transaction Balance of your Visa debit card would be £/$/€150;
the Transaction Balance of your Wire Transfer account would be £/$/€50;
the Transaction Balance of your PayPal account would be £/$/€50; and
If on Sunday you requested a withdrawal of £/$/€450, then the first £/$/€250 of this amount (the Transaction Balance) would be paid automatically to the applicable payment method as follows:
£/$/€150 to your Visa debit card;
£/$/€50 to your Wire Transfer account;
£/$/€50 to your PayPal account; and
Your Transaction Balance would now equal zero. Your Remaining Withdrawal Balance would be £/$/€200 and this would be paid to your chosen payment method(s).
How will I be paid my Remaining Withdrawal Balance?
You may request for your Remaining Withdrawal Balance to be paid to any one of the following, provided that you have deposited to your account with such methods in the past 4 months:
Visa credit/debit card(s) (subject to any withdrawal limits that are applied by the Visa credit/debit card issuer); or PayPal;
We may offer you a choice of Wire Transfer if you have not deposited funds into your account, or if the above methods are not available for any reason.
*Are there any deposit methods that do not have a Transaction Balance?
Yes, due to regulations imposed by issuers of debit cards and MasterCard/Eurocard debit cards, deposits made with certain debit cards and Mastercard/Eurocard debit cards, do not have a Transaction Balance and we will not be able to offer withdrawals to such payment methods.
In addition, we will not be able to offer withdrawals by paysafe and Apple Pay.
