On-chain Bitcoin deposits can take 20+ minutes and cost more in fees. Lightning solves that for smaller amounts — if your wallet and the casino both support it.
How a Lightning deposit works
The cashier generates a Lightning invoice (QR + string). Your wallet pays it; balance often credits in under a minute. Fees are typically cents, not dollars.
Tip: Copy the invoice amount exactly — overpaying does not always auto-credit the extra sats.
Limits & withdrawals
Many sites cap Lightning deposits at $200–$500 equivalent. Cashouts may still use on-chain BTC or stablecoins — read the payments page before you deposit.
Safety checklist
- Use a licensed casino with a public withdrawal track record
- Enable 2FA on your account
- Test with a small deposit first
