SEPA Transfers
SEPA transfers are commonly supported by European banks and many online financial providers, including licensed Electronic Money Institutions (EMIs).
They are typically processed faster and may involve lower fees compared to SWIFT transfers.
Sportmarket offers two SEPA deposit methods depending on the transfer amount.
Standard SEPA - any amount
Instant SEPA (if supported by your bank) - up to €5,000
Instant SEPA Transfers (Up to €5,000)
Instant SEPA (SEPA Instant Credit Transfer) allows deposits to be transferred between banks in the SEPA zone in under 10 seconds, 24/7, 365 days a year.
Unlike standard SEPA transfers, which can take up to 1–2 business days, Instant SEPA deposits are processed and credited to your Sportmarket account immediately after the transfer is received.
