    I've previously tried withdrawing from my Betfair account to my Revolut card (IIRC that was in 2016), but Revolut refused the transaction. When I contacted their support staff I was told something to the effect that they don't support gambling.

    I just looked up their terms now, I think this is probably the relevant section for gambling:
    RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF THE REVOLUT SERVICES
    19.1. It is not permitted to:

    use the Revolut Services for any illegal purposes, including, but not limited to fraud and money laundering, unlawful sexually oriented materials or services, counterfeit products, unlawful gambling activities, fraud, money laundering, the funding of terrorist organizations, the unlawful purchase or sale of tobacco, firearms, prescription drugs, other controlled substances or other products prohibited by law. Revolut will report any suspicious activity and cooperate with any relevant law enforcement agency or regulator;
    [...]
    use the Revolut Services to conduct activities pertaining to adult entertainment/pornography, auction houses, charities, chemicals and allied products, dating and escort services, binary options, legal services, political or religious organisations, video game arcades or establishments and business claiming to trade in prime bank guarantees, debentures, letters of credit or medium term notes;

    You'd be better off just setting up a Paypal account.

    Didn't realise you could link your Paypal to PP.
    I've transferred money from Revolut into PP without issue but haven't tried it the other way yet.

    They have no problem with you depositing to bookies - I do it myself with BetVictor - it's the withdrawals that are the issue.

    Cards or Card Types not accepted by Paddy Power

    Your card may not be accepted by Paddy Power for several reasons.

    For example, disposable or prepaid cards cannot be accepted as it is not possible to ensure the card holder is over the age of 18. Therefore, we cannot authorise payments through these card types.
    If you card is issued by a bank from a country which we cannot accept for legal reasons.
    If you have a card type which we don't accept.


    In some cases, we may also require a scan/photo/screenshot of the front of the card, and a bank statement for the card. Once we have received these, we can add the card to our system so that you will be able to deposit using it without any problems in the future
