What happens to my Betfair balance when I close my account?

You must withdraw all funds before account closure. If you have any open bets, you'll need to wait for them to settle before withdrawing. Betfair support can assist if you encounter withdrawal issues.

Can I self-exclude from Betfair instead of closing my account?

Yes. Betfair offers self-exclusion for a minimum of 6 months, as well as deposit limits and cooling-off periods. UK players can also use GAMSTOP (gamstop.co.uk) to self-exclude from all UKGC-licensed operators. GamCare (0808 8020 133) provides free support.

How long does Betfair account closure take?

Betfair account closure is typically processed within 1–5 business days. Any open bets will need to settle first. You'll receive a confirmation email once your account has been closed.
