How do I withdraw money to a crypto wallet?
Withdrawal to Crypto wallet is available in selected countries only. To see if this feature is available for you, visit the Withdraw section in your account.
You can send money from your available Skrill Fiat balance to an external crypto wallet by following these steps:
- Visit the Withdraw section in your Skrill account and select Crypto Wallet.
- Select the cryptocurrency you’d like to withdraw to, your fiat balance you wish to withdraw from, enter the send amount, and crypto address.

What are the fees?
All applicable fees will be displayed via the transaction summary screen. A network fee may also be applied, which is beyond our control. It is paid to crypto miners and validators for verifying transactions on the blockchain and keeping the network secure. This fee is deducted from the total amount of your withdrawal so you may receive a lesser amount than expected.
