What to check
Match the transaction to its method
A withdrawal can arrive later than a separate withdrawal sent after it, because the bank can post transactions in a different order. Open Betfair’s recent-withdrawal view, note the method and date, then compare it with the bank account or card statement.
Use the correct Ireland window
Betfair currently lists instant Pay by Bank withdrawals for Revolut users; other Irish banks are typically shown as 2–6 hours. Eligible Visa Fast Funds withdrawals usually arrive in seconds and can take up to two hours. Standard card withdrawals may take 2–5 working days. These are route-specific windows, not one universal payout promise.
Ask for a trace after the stated time
For a missing card payment, Betfair says to allow its full stated window before contacting support for an ARN. The reference identifies a card transaction as it moves through the payment chain and can help the bank locate the credit. Keep the Betfair withdrawal date, amount and method available.
Check the destination before escalating
If a card was replaced, lost or expired, the payment can still be processed to the associated bank account, or it can return to the Betfair balance when that account is no longer accessible. Betfair’s help describes what to do for those cases. Use the account-specific support route if the withdrawal is still unavailable after its published window.
Trace the withdrawal
- Open recent withdrawalsFind the payment date, amount, method and status in the Betfair account.
- Read the method’s full windowCompare the current status with the specific Betfair help timing for that route.

- Contact Betfair supportAsk for the tracing reference when Betfair’s stated window has elapsed and the bank still cannot locate the funds.
- Give the reference to the bankUse the ARN with the bank’s card-payment team so it can search for the transaction.
