OLG accepts Visa Debit, Debit Mastercard, INTERAC e-Transfer, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Apple Pay for deposits in Canada; withdrawals use electronic bank transfer. The minimum deposit is C$15 and the minimum withdrawal is C$2, so choose your payment method by whether you are adding or withdrawing money.


Which OLG payment methods work for deposits and withdrawals?

OLG offers a broader choice for deposits than for withdrawals: the card, e-Transfer and Apple Pay deposit options are not withdrawal methods. Accounts in Canada use CAD.

DirectionMethodsMinimum
DepositVisa Debit, Debit Mastercard, INTERAC e-Transfer, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Apple PayC$15
WithdrawalElectronic bank transferC$2

The deposit choice is convenient if you prefer cards or Apple Pay, but taking money out requires a bank transfer rather than the same deposit method. Before funding your account or requesting a withdrawal, check the minimum for that direction.


Can OLG deposits bring extra fees?

Yes. Your credit card issuer may treat funding your OLG account as a cash advance and charge a fee for each transaction. That makes the issuer's terms worth checking before you choose a credit card to deposit.

  • Possible cash advance fee: a credit card deposit may carry an issuer charge, so check how your issuer treats account funding before paying.
  • Responsibility for fees: any cash advance fee or other fee relating to your payment method is yours to pay; account for those costs when choosing how much to deposit.

How long does OLG take to process a withdrawal?

In most circumstances, OLG can process a withdrawal within three Business Days after you request it and satisfy all withdrawal conditions. This applies to withdrawals of Unutilized Funds from a Standard Player Account.

Processing means handling the withdrawal request; arrival means the money has reached your bank account.

  • Information and documentation: provide anything OLG requires for your withdrawal, since the processing window depends on satisfying those conditions.

This timing better suits you if you can allow for processing rather than need immediate access to the money. For the wider fit, read OLG review: is it right for you?
