You want the fastest payouts right? Sports bettors understandably want the fastest sportsbook payouts possible. Having quick access to your funds gives them flexibility. You can take advantage of great lines offered, use the money to celebrate a major win. Or, you can ensure the money is ready to move on a highly-anticipated sporting event.
The Sportsbook with one of the fastest options for payout processes is FanDuel, offering winnings withdrawals through ACH/E-Check, physical checks, PayPal and the FanDuel Prepaid Card. Bovada is going to be the best sportsbook for getting check payouts because they give you one free every 90 days. That eliminates the sometimes-exorbitant check fees that can exceed $100 from other sportsbooks.
This list is our weekly updated payout report from the sportsbooks on our Good list.
Last Updated 2/1/2021 – 2021 Payouts & Cash Outs Update
- Bovada – Check payouts are taking about 48 hours to your door. This is after your cash out request is approved. Getting approved can take a bit of time if it is your first withdrawal. Keep in mind that only once per month you can get a Fedex overnight delivery – always deposit your check right away at your normal bank! I would not try and cash it at a gas station or check cashing place. Players get one check free per month Bovada will be encouraging you to utilize bitcoin. It's easy to set up a wallet to receive BTC from Bovada and they pay out promptly. Usually within hours once your account is established. I wrote a bitcoin gambling wallet guide if you want to get set up (short answer is use Green Wallet from Blockstream.)
- Bet Online – Bitcoin cashouts preferred and take within 24 hours of request. Check payments take 4-5 days or so, which is consistent with previous months. They are pushing bitcoin for cash outs and deposits (as is the entire industry).
- Bookmaker – No more checks to anyone at Bookmaker – you need bitcoin or crypto to cash out (or in). Checks were taking 3-4 days but they are really pushing crypto. However they always pay lightning fast, with bitcoin to me on the first week of the month. Bitcoin payments are about 1 day on average and mine was within hours.
- MyBookie – My honest answer is that they pay, but it's not as fast as the other sportsbooks. Slower pays here up to the end of the month but they manage to make payouts. Players are getting paid via check and crypto. Checks take about a week right now. This book is honestly somewhat of an enigma for me. Some months they pay out way sooner than other. Reports from the internet is that payouts are taking about a week. More details to come soon.

Then they had us re-try once we contacted them back. The re-try was working until their system flagged us for requesting more than one cashout in a 7 day period (sigh). We didn't go through the hassle of trying to explain to them why we've requested a withdrawal twice within 7 days and just figured we would wait a little bit. Bookmaker in on 11/6.

Changes In Payouts – Cash Outs in 2020 (Prediction)
Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are becoming the fastest, easiest and safest way to deposit and withdraw at one of the legit offshore sportsbooks available to most of the USA. If you are in the US then you are going to want to get properly set up with cryptocurrency for real money online gambling.
Bitcoin makes processing payments simple for the offshore bookmakers. And the offshore bookies are where you get your best value when betting (most of the time). The offshore guys have adopted crypto in big ways.
Not only has it become the most successful deposit method (with virtually 100% of the deposits being successful compared to about 50% success using credit card) it is becoming the preferred method of cashing out.
In some instances it has become the only method of cashing out. One of our players recently hit a parlay at the sportsbook at Americas Cardroom (sister site to bookmaker.eu who we promote here) for a little over $1000. They could only cash out with bitcoin.
Sportsbooks are moving to crypto to process payments. It began with affiliates and is being encouraged to players. Get familiar with bitcoin as it is has changed the online gambling marketplace. You can find my short list of legit bitcoin sportsbooks here.
You do not have ‘invest in bitcoin' to use it to gamble online with. Once you are set up with a wallet and have an account on a ‘fiat exchange' like Coinbase or Localbitcoins you can quickly buy bitcoin, send to your wallet and then deposit at an online sportsbook without holding your money in bitcoin format.
I have a handful of bitcoin gambling guides. Check these out:

**Have you requested a cash out recently? Please leave a comment on this page with which sportsbook, which withdrawal method and how long it took to get the money in your hands. We and the other sports bettors thank you in advance! Thanks!
The above sportsbooks are on my short list. You win, they pay. Do not bet at the slow pay / no pay sportsbooks. There are sometimes delays in payments that happen, whenever Uncle Sam decides to come after processors in a big way, but these sites have been through it before, have weathered the storm and pay out. Period.
Obviously fast cashouts are always preferable to slow ones. When your money is out of reach, it's as if you're making an interest-free loan to someone. If you can avoid it, allowing it to happen is a bad business decision.
Finding the best sportsbooks online is challenging – we've done the work for you! Check it out!
We realize how difficult it is to find the fastest-paying online sportsbooks open to USA players. Below, we'll point you to the books we use. First, let's take a closer look at some of the reasons you should limit your betting activity to US-friendly sportsbooks with the quickest payouts.
What's going on here with this payout report?
I get paid every month from most of these bookies. I report on when that payment comes in. Slow pays to me mean concerns for you.
A sportsbook is only as good as it's last payout.
Only bet at the books that have consistently paid out. I update the text up above a couple of times each week. I also keep up with payout reports from the betting forums around the web as part of my job so I update back here when necessary.
4 Reasons To Seek The Fastest Sportsbook Payouts Possible
Your reasons for wanting quick access to your money might differ than ours. Or, they might be exactly the same. The important thing to remember is that some sports betting sites pay out faster than others. And they seem to do so on a consistent basis. Unless you have compelling reasons to place wagers at slow-paying books, it's in your interest to make a switch.
Here's why fast cash-outs are attractive to us (see if your own reasons dovetail with those below):
Stay Ready To Move On Favorable Lines
Imagine this scenario: you place most of your bets at two or three sportsbooks you've become accustomed to over the years. Most of your funds are held within your accounts. You're locked in.
One day you stumble upon a book that offers everything you like to see in a sports betting site. And it has a stellar reputation to boot. You notice that the site offers several amazing lines, and want to take advantage of them before they shift. Unfortunately, your money is tied up in your other sportsbook accounts. There's no way to gain access to it in time to fully leverage the odds you've stumbled upon.
Play among us online. Playamo.net on Mobile Whenever you feel like playing free slots, Playamo.net is always available on all devices! Casual gaming fans can play casino games on all devices for.
This is a dilemma you're likely to encounter at some point. In fact, you'll probably confront it more than once. If your money is held at a sportsbook known for processing quick withdrawals, you'll have a better chance of taking advantage of opportunities.
Maintain Spending Flexibility
There are countless things you might want – or need – to spend money on. For example, you might want to take a small vacation with your spouse. You may want to purchase the latest iPhone. Or perhaps your child is starting college and the first tuition payment is due. From buying coveted items for yourself to enjoying experiences with your family to paying for necessities (e.g. a new roof for your home), you want to have funds available.
Now suppose most of your discretionary income is contained in your sportsbook accounts. It might take weeks for you to gain access to it. In the meantime, you may be forced to put other expenditures on hold, some of which might need to be addressed immediately.
The more quickly you can obtain your funds, the better. Here, receiving fast sportsbook payouts can be a huge benefit.
Best Sportsbook Review
Keep Your Money Productive
Ideally, your money should always be working for you. Whether you're investing in stocks, building an emergency fund, or generating profits by betting on sports, idle funds represent a waste.
You can ensure your money stays productive by shortening the time frame between requesting a withdrawal and receiving your cashout. You'll be able to put your funds to use more quickly and (hopefully) toward profitable ends.
Enjoy Peace Of Mind
No one enjoys the thought of giving up control of their funds. It's unsettling. The only reason most of us feel comfortable leaving a considerable sum in our checking and savings accounts is because the funds are insured. Not so with the funds you keep in your sportsbook accounts.
When the high-profile poker sites Full Tilt and PokerStars were forced to close their doors to U.S. poker players in 2011, many people found their accounts frozen. They couldn't access their money, which, in some cases, amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars. Those issues have since been resolved, but they reveal a risk taken by U.S. sports bettors.
When you limit your betting activity to sportsbooks with the fastest payouts, you'll have more peace of mind. In an emergency, you'll be able to gain access to your funds more quickly.

Fast Sportsbook Cashouts And Payout Methods
The payment method you chose is going to greatly affect he speeds with which you receive your funds. Some methods are faster than others. For example, transfers such as those sent via person to person are usually the quickest option. By contrast, choosing to receive a check in the mail is typically the slowest. With a wire transfer, your funds are available within minutes. A check may take 3 to 4 weeks to arrive.
Bank wires are also relatively quick, at least in comparison to checks. You'll usually receive your money within 5 or 6 days. Keep in mind it could take longer depending on holidays.
If wires take so little time compared to checks, why would anyone choose checks as their payout option? The reason involves fees. Wires tend to be expensive. If you're in a bind and need cash quickly, paying the wire transfer fee may be worthwhile. Otherwise, it's a very costly way to receive money that is already yours.
It's important to note that there is often a fee to have a check sent out. But the fee is much smaller than the fee charged for a wire transfer. Moreover, depending on the circumstances, it may be waived by the sportsbook.
Even the fastest cash out sportsbooks won't send your money to a credit card, even if you used the credit card to fund your account. Doing so is too problematic thanks to U.S. federal laws passed several years ago. (Sports bettors living in Europe are spared this inconvenience.)
How To Streamline Fast Payouts From USA Sportsbooks
You're going to have to really prove your identity if you're making a first time withdrawal in the United States. A lot of sports bettors become angry when the sportsbooks from which they're cashing out ask them to present government-issued identification (driver's license, I.D. card, etc.).
First, this requirement is normal. Nearly all sports betting sites do it. Second, despite the inconvenience, it's actually encouraging that sportsbooks take steps to verify the identities of those to whom they're sending money.
You can remove unnecessary obstacles to gain quick access to your cash by having the proper documents ready to fax or email over to the sports betting site. When they ask, be ready to accommodate them.
