PayPal remains the most recognised e-wallet for Irish punters who don't want to hand over full card details to every sportsbook they try. The catch across almost every operator: PayPal deposits are usually excluded from qualifying for the welcome offer, even when PayPal is fully supported for regular deposits and withdrawals.
Ranked — Confirmed PayPal Support
The following sportsbooks have been verified to accept PayPal for both deposits and withdrawals from Ireland. Note that at every operator listed below, PayPal deposits do not qualify for the welcome offer — use a debit card for your first qualifying bet, then switch to PayPal for everyday use.
BoyleSports
Deposits and withdrawals both supported. PayPal withdrawals typically land within ~24 hours — faster than standard debit card payouts. Note: PayPal deposits don't count toward the welcome offer. Use another payment method for your qualifying bet, then switch to PayPal afterwards.

Ladbrokes
Deposits and withdrawals both supported. Minimum PayPal deposit is €10 — higher than Ladbrokes' usual €5 across other methods. PayPal is explicitly excluded from qualifying for the free bet welcome offer.
18+ New UK+ROI Customers only. Certain deposit methods & bet types excl. Min first €5 bet within 14 days of account reg at min odds 1/2 to get 6 x €5 free bets (selected sportsbook markets only, valid 7 days, stake not returned). Restrictions + T&Cs apply.
Coral
Shares Ladbrokes' banking infrastructure under the same ownership group — same PayPal support, same €10 minimum deposit, and same welcome-offer exclusion. A solid PayPal option for Coral users regardless.
18+ New UK + ROI customers only. Certain deposit methods & bet types excl. Min first £/€5 bet within 14 days of account reg at min odds 1/2 to get 6 x £/€5 free bets (selected sportsbook markets only, valid 7 days, stakes not returned). Restrictions + T&Cs apply.
SBK
Accepts PayPal, though with a notably higher €25 minimum deposit — the highest of any method on SBK's cashier. PayPal is excluded from the welcome offer; use a debit card or bank transfer to qualify.
New Ireland and Malta customers. Min €10 first deposit. Place a bet of €10 at min odds of 2.0 and get €50 in Free Bets within 48 hours. Full T&Cs apply. Play responsibly, 18+. www.rgf.org.mt, BeGambleAware.org.
NetBet
Supports PayPal alongside Apple Pay and Google Pay. Based on UK research, PayPal likely does not count toward the welcome offer — treat this as the expected default pending direct confirmation for the Irish site specifically.
New players only | Bet €10 min. odds 1/2 (1.50) to get 4 x €10 Free Bets: 1 x €10 Football, 1 x €10 Bet Builder, 1 x €10 Horse racing & 1 x €10 UFC | T&Cs apply
Frequently Asked Questions
Does using PayPal stop me getting the welcome bonus?
At every operator confirmed above, yes — PayPal deposits are specifically excluded from qualifying for the sign-up free bets, even though PayPal itself works fine for regular use. Fund your first qualifying bet with a debit card, then switch to PayPal for everyday deposits and faster withdrawals if you prefer.
Which Irish bookmaker pays out fastest via PayPal?
Both BoyleSports and Ladbrokes both report roughly 24-hour PayPal withdrawal times, ahead of standard debit card payouts which can take 2–3 working days.
