7Bit Casino Withdrawal Times
Crypto in one to six hours, wallets in a day or two, cards in most of a working week. Here is what happens between pressing withdraw and the money arriving in a New Zealand account — and where the delay usually is.
Payout speed is the number people care about most and the number written most carelessly. A site that says "instant withdrawals" is quoting the moment the money leaves the casino, not the moment it turns up in your account, and those two things can be five business days apart.
At 7Bit Casino the honest version is this: crypto is genuinely fast, wallets are quick enough, and cards and bank transfers are as slow as they are everywhere else, because the delay lives in the banking system rather than the casino. Nothing is deducted from your payout at the casino end.
The rest of this page is about the part you can control. Roughly speaking, two decisions set your withdrawal time: which rail you deposited on, and whether you verified your account before you needed to.
What happens after you press withdraw
Every payout goes through the same four stages. When someone says their withdrawal is "taking forever", they are almost always stuck at stage two, and stage two is the one you can do something about in advance.
Request
Instant. You pick a method and an amount. The funds leave your playable balance immediately and sit in pending.
Pending review
Usually under an hour. Longer overnight New Zealand time and longer again at weekends, because that is European business hours running the queue.
Verification
First payout only, 24–48 hours. Skipped entirely if you uploaded your documents when you registered.
Payment
1–6 hours on crypto, 24–48 on a wallet, 3–5 business days on a card, 3–7 on a bank transfer. This is the leg everybody quotes.
The realistic first payout. Request on a Tuesday morning with verification already done and crypto as your method, and you can be paid the same day. Request on a Friday night, unverified, to a debit card, and you are looking at the middle of the following week. Neither of those is the casino behaving differently — it is the same queue with a different starting position.
Crypto and e-wallets: the fast half
Cryptocurrency
1–6 hoursBitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and USDT are the fastest payouts available here, and the gap over everything else is not marginal. Once approval clears, the transaction is broadcast and you are waiting on the chain rather than on a bank. Minimum NZ$30 equivalent, no ceiling beyond the account limits.
Two things slow this down in practice: the network fee you set if you are moving funds on afterwards, and Ethereum congestion. Litecoin and USDT are consistently the least painful of the four for a New Zealand player who just wants the money out.
E-wallets
24–48 hoursSkrill, Neteller, PayPal and AstroPay. The quoted window is the casino's processing time, not the transfer time — once the payout is approved the wallet credits within minutes. Minimum NZ$20, maximum NZ$5,000 per transaction.
Remember there is a second leg. Getting money from Skrill or Neteller to a New Zealand bank account is its own transfer with its own fee and its own one to three day wait, and people routinely forget to count it.
The closed-loop rule decides this for you. Funds return the way they came, up to the amount you deposited. If you want to be paid in crypto, deposit in crypto. Choosing your withdrawal method at the withdrawal screen is already too late — that choice was made in the cashier.
Bank transfer: slow, but it takes the big numbers
A direct transfer to an ANZ, ASB, BNZ, Westpac or Kiwibank account takes three to seven business days and is the only rail that comfortably handles a large payout in one piece. It is also the fallback the support team will offer when you funded with something that cannot pay you back — Account2Account, Apple Pay, Google Pay or a Paysafecard voucher.
Two details are worth planning around. First, the minimum is NZ$50, higher than any other method. Second, business days mean business days in Europe as well as here, so a New Zealand public holiday is irrelevant but a European one is not, and the seven-day end of that range is where a payout lands when the timing is unlucky.
Account2Account, the rail most New Zealand players deposit with, is deposit-only. That surprises people at exactly the wrong moment. If it is how you fund the account, decide now whether your payouts will go to a bank transfer or to a wallet in your own name, and get that method verified early.
Account limits
Debit card payouts: three to five business days
A card withdrawal is not a payment to you, it is a refund against the deposit you originally made. That is why it takes three to five business days when everything else is measured in hours, and why the credit sometimes appears on your statement dated to the day you deposited rather than the day the casino paid you.
Up to what you deposited
The refund leg can only return the deposit amount. Winnings above that go out on a second method, usually a bank transfer, which means two waits rather than one.
Your issuer sets the last mile
The casino releases it in the same window every time. How quickly it posts to your account after that is your bank's decision, and some New Zealand issuers are noticeably slower than others.
Expired card, new problem
If the card you deposited with has since expired, the refund cannot land. Tell support before you request, not after, and have the replacement card details ready.
Cards are the right choice if you value not having another account to manage, and the wrong choice if payout speed is what you are optimising for. Everything about the card menu, including which types get declined, is covered on the payment methods page.
Every withdrawal method compared
Times below exclude the pending review window and assume verification is complete. Deposit-only methods are listed so you can see what will force you onto a second rail.

| Neteller | NZ$20 | NZ$5,000 | 24–48 hours | None | Same two-leg journey as Skrill. |
| PayPal | NZ$20 | NZ$5,000 | 24–48 hours | None | Simplest wallet exit for a New Zealand bank account. |
| AstroPay | NZ$20 | NZ$5,000 | 24–48 hours | None | Fine as a pass-through, less useful to hold funds in. |

Why a withdrawal gets rejected or stalls
Most commonWagering is still running
An active welcome bonus carries 35x wagering on the bonus amount, and the balance is locked until that is met. Requesting a payout mid-wagering forfeits the bonus and everything it has won. Check the bonus panel before the cashier, not after.
Documents incomplete or unreadable
A cropped corner, a glare across the photo page, a power bill three months and a day old. Every one of those restarts the 24–48 hour verification clock. Photograph documents flat, in daylight, with all four corners visible.
Withdrawing to a method you never deposited with
The closed-loop rule sends money back where it came from. A request to a brand new wallet you have never used will be bounced back to your balance with a note asking you to use the original method.
Below the minimum, or above the weekly cap
Under NZ$20 (NZ$50 on a bank transfer) is rejected outright. Over NZ$10,000 in a week is trimmed to the cap and the remainder queues for the following week. Neither is a problem, but both look like one if you are not expecting it.
Name mismatch on the payment method
The account holder and the payee must be the same person. A joint account is usually fine if your name is on it; someone else's card is not, and that is not negotiable at any licensed operator.
You cancelled it yourself
Reverse-withdrawal is available while a request is pending and it is the quiet reason a lot of people never see their winnings. If a payout is in the queue, log out. There is no faster way to lose money you have already won.
How a payout shows up on your statement
Card
Appears as a refund or credit carrying the payment processor's trading name, not the casino's. It can be dated to the original deposit, which makes it easy to miss when you are scrolling for today.
Bank transfer
A normal inbound credit with the processor's name and a reference number. This is the line your bank may ask about, and the reference matches your casino transaction history exactly.
Wallet and crypto
Nothing appears on your bank statement at all until you move funds out of the wallet or exchange. At that point it is a transfer from Skrill, PayPal or your exchange, with no reference to gambling in the descriptor.
Keep the transaction history from inside your account. It is the only record that names the casino, the method and the exact timestamps, and it is what you will be asked for if a payment ever needs tracing.
What New Zealand players report
Paraphrased from public player forums and complaint threads. Dates are when the report was posted, not when we checked it — individual results vary and one person's bad week is not a pattern.
"Litecoin payout was in my exchange account in about two hours on a Wednesday. The only slow part was the first one, where they wanted the address confirmed."
"Requested Friday evening, approved Monday morning, in my Kiwibank account Thursday. So a week all up. Annoying but nothing actually went wrong."
"Held for two days because my proof of address was a screenshot of internet banking rather than a statement PDF. Resubmitted properly and it went straight through."
"Deposited with Account2Account, then found out I couldn't withdraw to it. Had to give bank details and wait for that to be checked. Would do it differently next time."
What changed about payouts
| Area | Was | Now | Effect on your wait |
|---|---|---|---|
| Verification | Requested at first payout | Can be completed at sign-up | Removes 24–48 hours from your first withdrawal if you do it early. |
| Crypto options | BTC, ETH, LTC | USDT added | Same speed without the price movement while you wait. |
| Pending window | Fixed daily batch | Rolling review | Weekday requests clear faster; weekends still lag. |
| NZD payouts | Converted at your bank | Paid in NZD | No FX margin on the way out if your account is in NZD. |
| Local deposit rail | POLi | Account2Account | Still deposit-only, so the exit rail question has not gone away. |
