Industry Challenges

Why these businesses
struggle to get banked.

Understanding the obstacles is the first step. We've navigated every one of them.

90%

Mainstream bank rejection rate

Blanket Gambling Classification

Banks classify sports betting operators in the same high-risk gambling category as online casinos — regardless of the operator's licence status, reputation, or responsible gambling programme quality.

50x

Peak volume multiplier

Seasonal Volume Spikes

Major sporting events — the World Cup, Super Bowl, Grand National — create transaction volume spikes of 10–50x normal levels. Most banks freeze accounts without understanding sports betting seasonality.

60+

Markets typically served

Cross-Border Player Payments

Sports betting attracts international players, requiring payment processing across multiple jurisdictions with different regulations — SEPA, SWIFT, local rails, and increasingly crypto.

24hrs

Typical freeze duration

Winnings & Withdrawal Risk

Large player withdrawal events — significant winnings, matched betting activity — trigger AML reviews and account freezes at mainstream banks that lack experience with legitimate sports betting operations.

We've solved every one of these barriers for 200+ operators. Our placement success rate is 97%+.

TrustpilotExcellent · 4.9/5
We operate under an MGA licence and still got rejected by six banks before GetBanked. They found us a partner that understood sportsbook volumes in 9 days. Phenomenal.
