What Every Sankra Transaction Really Costs

Payment Fees and Charges at Sankra

Playing at Casino Sankra involves specific costs tied to how and when you move money, rather than a flat transaction charge on every deposit or withdrawal. Deposits arrive via Visa, Mastercard, bank transfer or e-wallets, and the fees below apply depending on the method and on your wagering activity before a withdrawal.

• Deposits made by Visa, Mastercard, bank transfer or e-wallet carry no listed deposit fee.
• Withdrawing before wagering the deposit at least 1x can trigger a fee of 10% of the last deposit, minimum 0.50 GBP.
• That early-withdrawal fee rises to 15% of the last deposit if it was made by bank card or bank transfer.
• Accounts left inactive for 180 days are charged a 5 GBP monthly admin fee until the balance reaches zero.
• Card withdrawals of amounts up to the total deposited by that card may be paid back to the card as a refund.
• We are not responsible for taxes on winnings; players carry that cost themselves.

The Real Cost of a Deposit or Withdrawal

Every deposit must be wagered at least 1x before it can be withdrawn. Miss that threshold and the winnings linked to it may be cancelled, with a fee kept from the deposit itself: 10% (minimum 0.50 GBP) for e-wallet deposits, rising to 15% if the money arrived by bank card or bank transfer. On a 50 GBP deposit, that works out to a 5 GBP fee by e-wallet or 7.50 GBP by card. Choosing an e-wallet for your deposit therefore keeps this specific fee lower than paying by card or bank transfer. This sits alongside the deposit bonuses we run, since wagering rules for bonus funds work separately from this deposit rollover.

Card withdrawals are handled differently from other methods: any payout up to the total amount deposited by a given card can be returned to that same card as a refund rather than a standard withdrawal. Full deposit and withdrawal method details sit on our banking page.

Inactive Account Fee

If an account goes 180 days without a login, we apply a 5 GBP monthly administration fee, deducted automatically until the balance reaches zero.

Fees at a Glance

Three charges cover the costs that can apply to a transaction, each tied to a clear trigger rather than applied automatically.

Outside these three triggers, we do not list a separate transaction charge on deposits or payouts.

Refunds, Errors and Who Pays Tax

We do not generally offer refunds on deposits. A refund request must be sent within 24 hours of the transaction, and we respond within 10 business days, but a refund is no longer possible once the deposit, or its bonus, has already been used to bet. If a refund is approved, we still require identity documents within 30 days, and funds are forfeited if they are not provided in time.

Mistakes on either side are corrected rather than charged as a fee: amounts credited to an account in error may be written off, while amounts wrongly debited from a player are refunded within 30 days of us detecting the mistake. This applies regardless of payment method, so a card deposit and a bank transfer deposit are treated the same way when an error occurs.

Any tax owed on winnings is the player's own responsibility, not a cost we deduct at source. This sits apart from the account fees above, since tax rules depend on the player's own country rather than anything we set.
