The minimum deposit at Ladbrokes is €5 but there are only three payment methods: debit cards, PayPal and Paysafe. If you choose PayPal, the min deposit doubles to €10.
Below, we break down all deposit options, fees, limits, and which ones qualify for the welcome bonus at Ladbrokes.
Ladbrokes was launched way back in the UK on the high street in 1886 and has grown from strength to strength, now sitting comfortably under the Entain umbrella.
As such, we'd expect the online version to be tip-top in all aspects. We were left a little unimpressed with the deposit methods on show, with just PayPal, debit cards and Paysafe available.
In saying that, the minimum amount is just €5 (€10 with PayPal) and depositing is seamless so that certainly counts for something.
Below, we have collected everything you need to know about Ladbrokes and depositing funds, from the payment methods accepted to the specific terms for each.

| Visa | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |
Mastercard | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |

It's easy to deposit at Ladbrokes, just follow our guide underneath:
After we finished registering our account at Ladbrokes, it brought us instantly to the deposit page with four banking options. Alternatively, bettors can skip this step and click the 'Deposit' button at another stage.
After picking from the deposit options available by "Adding a payment method", hit the "Next" button at the bottom of the page.
Your preferred payment method is now in play and you can top up your gaming or sports wallet by entering the desired amount in the box provided and hitting "Deposit".
As you can see, we went for a Visa debit card in our test and the deposit was instant.
You'll now see confirmation of a successful deposit and the account balance will be topped up. Hit "Done" to continue browsing.
The minimum deposit at Ladbrokes is €5 using debit cards or Paysafecard. If using PayPal, the minimum is €10. There isn't a whole lot of deposit options for Irish players at Ladbrokes, but the €5 minimum is on par with several big-name competitors.
The good news is it takes just €5 to trigger the welcome bonus at Ladbrokes and benefit from €30 in free bets, which makes it one of the best sign-up offers in Ireland.
Bad news from our testing is that most of the deposit options do not count towards the welcome offer. Debit card is the only viable option to trigger the bonus and as such, we expect it to be the most popular. The minimum deposit is nice and low, while the maximum is high.
| Payment Method | Min Deposit | Max Deposit | Deposit Fee | Processing Time | Triggers Bonus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Visa | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |
Mastercard | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |
PayPal | €10 | €3,500 | No fee | Instant | |
Paysafecard | €5 | €1,000 | No fee | Instant |
The minimum deposit via PayPal is €10, while Paysafe depositors can go lower at €5. Unfortunately, neither of these deposit options triggers the welcome offer. Max deposit with the former is €3.5k, while €1k is the maximum deposit threshold via Paysafe.
| Payment Method | Min Deposit | Max Deposit | Deposit Fee | Processing Time | Triggers Bonus |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Visa | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |
Mastercard | €5 | €35,000 | No fee | Instant | |
PayPal | €10 | €3,500 | No fee | Instant | |
Paysafecard | €5 | €1,000 | No fee | Instant |
