Getting Funds Into Your PolyGram Account from the UK

Although Polymarket restricts access from the UK, PolyGram provides unrestricted entry to the identical CLOB order book alongside purpose-built UK funding pathways. Every contract resolves in USDC across the Polygon blockchain.

Funding Options for UK-Based PolyGram Traders

Bank Transfer (Faster Payments / Open Banking)

British account holders can top up their PolyGram wallet using Faster Payments via PolyGram's fiat gateway partner. Your sterling converts instantly to USDC and settles in roughly 5 minutes. The floor for any single deposit stands at £10. PolyGram itself levies no charge — your on-ramp provider applies a 1–1.5% markup.

Debit & Credit Card

Both Visa and Mastercard debit cards work seamlessly. Should you attempt a credit card deposit, your issuer may reject it as a cash advance — defaulting to a debit card is safer. The on-ramp provider charges approximately 1.8% per transaction.

Klarna

Klarna's Pay Later service is available to qualifying UK members. The feature allows you to execute trades immediately whilst deferring payment for up to 30 days. You'll need an active, compliant Klarna account to participate.

Crypto (USDC, ETH, BTC)

Transfer USDC directly into your PolyGram Polygon address from any major platform (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance). You may also deposit ETH or BTC — PolyGram's bridge automatically swaps these into USDC. This route suits high-frequency traders best and carries minimal friction. Polygon confirmations happen in under 60 seconds.

Deposit Fees Comparison

  • Bank transfer: ~1–1.5% on-ramp fee
  • Debit card: ~1.8% on-ramp fee
  • Klarna: 0% (interest-free 30-day)
  • Crypto (USDC direct): ~$0.001 Polygon gas only

Minimum and Maximum Deposits

The minimum funding amount is $10 equivalent. PolyGram imposes no ceiling on deposit size. Identity verification becomes mandatory once your cumulative deposits exceed $1,500. The KYC process completes in 2–5 minutes.

How Long Do Deposits Take?

  • Bank transfer: 2–10 minutes
  • Card: instant–3 minutes
  • Crypto USDC: 30 seconds–2 minutes
