Start playing at MoonPay Casino in a few steps

How To Start Playing At A Casino Using MoonPay

Pick a casino that lists MoonPay as a payment option, then create an account and complete the required identity checks. In the cashier, choose “Buy crypto with MoonPay,” select the coin the casino accepts (most commonly BTC, ETH, or USDT), and enter your deposit amount. MoonPay takes card or bank transfer depending on your country, then sends the crypto to the wallet address shown in the casino checkout.

Before you confirm the purchase, match three details on the checkout screen: the network (for example, ERC‑20 vs TRC‑20 for USDT), the wallet address, and the final amount after fees. MoonPay adds a service fee and the blockchain adds a network fee, so the credited deposit can differ from the amount you type in. Once the transfer is confirmed on-chain, the casino credits your balance and you can start playing.

How To Create A MoonPay Account And Wallet

  1. Open MoonPay and start sign-up. Go to MoonPay (website or app) and select Sign up. Enter your email address and set a password, then confirm your email from the message MoonPay sends.
  2. Verify your identity (KYC). Complete the identity check by providing your legal name, date of birth, and address. Upload a photo of a government-issued ID (passport, national ID, or driver’s license) and, if prompted, finish a selfie check.
  3. Set up security. Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) in your account settings and store your backup codes somewhere offline. This reduces the risk of account takeover.
  4. Create or connect a wallet address. Choose whether you want MoonPay to generate a wallet for supported assets or whether you want to connect an existing wallet by pasting your wallet address. Double-check the network (for example, Ethereum vs. Polygon) before saving anything.
  5. Add a payment method and fund the wallet. Link a card or bank transfer option (availability depends on your country). Choose the crypto, enter the amount, confirm the fees shown at checkout, and complete the purchase to receive funds to your saved wallet address.

MoonPay Pre-Play Checklist

  • Casino licence and regulator: Find the licence number in the site footer and match it to the regulator’s public register (for example, MGA, UKGC, or Curaçao). If the operator name on the register doesn’t match the casino’s legal entity, don’t deposit.
  • MoonPay availability and supported assets: Confirm MoonPay is offered inside the cashier, not via an external link. Check which crypto and fiat options are supported for your country, and whether the casino credits deposits in crypto or converts to a base currency on arrival.
  • Deposit and withdrawal limits: Check minimum and maximum deposit sizes, plus withdrawal minimums, daily caps, and any per-transaction limits. Look for separate limits for “crypto via MoonPay” versus card or bank methods.
  • Fees and exchange rate spread: Review MoonPay’s quoted fees in the checkout flow (processing fee, network fee, and any card fee) and compare the final “you pay” amount to the crypto amount received. Note that the casino can also add its own deposit fee or apply a different conversion rate.
  • Verification (KYC) and timing: Confirm what MoonPay requires (ID, selfie, proof of address) and what the casino requires for withdrawals. Check whether withdrawals are blocked until KYC is completed and how long the casino states it takes to approve documents.
  • Bonus terms with crypto deposits: Read whether MoonPay deposits qualify for welcome bonuses and whether there are different wagering rules for crypto-funded balances. Verify wagering multiple, max bet while wagering, excluded games, and whether withdrawal is restricted until wagering is cleared.

First Deposit With MoonPay

A practical first-deposit amount through MoonPay is $50–$100. It clears most minimum deposit rules, keeps MoonPay’s service fee and network fee proportionate, and gives enough balance to test a few game stakes without running out after a handful of spins or hands. Before paying, confirm three numbers on the checkout screen: the casino deposit minimum, MoonPay’s total fee shown in the quote, and the crypto amount you will actually receive after fees.

Activate the welcome bonus before you open MoonPay, then complete the deposit in one go from the bonus page so it tracks to the right offer. Use the exact wallet address and network the cashier specifies (for example, send USDT only on the listed chain), and don’t switch currency mid-checkout if the bonus is tied to a specific coin. Watch the timing: MoonPay applies KYC on first use, and deposits only credit after blockchain confirmations, so a short delay can push you past a bonus time window if the casino enforces one.

What is MoonPay and what do I need to use it?

MoonPay is a payment service that lets you buy cryptocurrency with a bank card or bank transfer. To start, you need a supported country, an email address, and a valid identity document for verification.

How do I make my first deposit with MoonPay?

Pick MoonPay at checkout, choose the cryptocurrency and amount, then enter your wallet address (or let the site fill it if it supports direct delivery). MoonPay then asks for your payment details and identity check before it processes the purchase.

How long does a MoonPay purchase take to show up?

Card purchases can complete in minutes after approval, then you still wait for the blockchain to confirm the transaction. Bank transfers take longer because the transfer has to clear before MoonPay releases the crypto.

Why did MoonPay ask for ID, and what can cause a payment to fail?

MoonPay runs KYC and fraud checks, so it can request a selfie and document scan even for smaller amounts. Payments fail when the bank blocks crypto-related charges, the billing details don’t match, the verification can’t be completed, or the transaction hits MoonPay’s risk limits.

Where can I see the fees and the final amount I’ll receive?

MoonPay shows the exchange rate, network fee, and MoonPay fee on the checkout screen before you confirm. The final received amount can change if the crypto price moves between authorization and completion, or if the network fee updates before broadcast.
