Please note: Japanese Yen (JPY) is currently unavailable on Stake.com. Further updates will be provided in the near future.
Stake.com has been at the forefront of the online crypto casino industry since we opened our virtual doors back in 2017.
We’re determined to make your online casino experience as enjoyable as possible, so we're improving the process to accept local fiat currency to make sportsbook bets and to play our popular slots, table games, and other casino content.
For players in Japan, this article explains how you can make deposits and withdrawals in Japanese Yen at Stake Casino.
Overview of the Japanese Yen Deposit Process
Visualising your Stake.com account balance in your local currency can make life easier for anyone less familiar with cryptocurrencies and the rate at which their values fluctuate. This can help you exercise safer gambling as you better grasp how much you are wagering, making local currency payments the ideal choice for some of our customers.
If you’d like to make foreign currency deposits to your Stake account, you’ll need to ensure you have local currency enabled on your account, which requires a certain level of identity verification.
You can check your verification level by logging into your stake account and navigating to your wallet. Click on deposit, and you can toggle between crypto and local currency. If you see the JPY option, you can deposit your Yen.
How to Complete Identity Verification
If you experience any issues when trying to perform a Japanese Yen bank transfer, it is likely due to having provided insufficient KYC (Know Your Customer) documentation to satisfy our requirements. You can rectify your JPY deposit issues by checking your KYC level and uploading the relevant information required.
Usually, upon submitting your documentation, your ID verification is processed in minutes, so hang tight, and you can deposit your funds and start playing our latest releases in no time. Japanese driving licenses or passports are required to achieve Verification Level 2 to proceed with your bank transfer in Japanese Yen.
How to Create an Account on Vega Wallet?
Once you have achieved the correct verification level, you have many choices for your fiat currency transaction. You can make secure transfers via fast bank transfer or using a Vega Wallet to deposit JPY; the latter requires registration for a new Vega Wallet account.
Head to your wallet, select deposit and toggle to local currency. Select JPY and Vega as your payment provider. Be sure to have your Vega user ID and password to hand, then select your desired deposit amount and click deposit.
Note that you will encounter difficulties depositing via Vega if you enter your credentials incorrectly even once. If this happens, contact our customer support team.
How to Withdraw Your Funds
You’ve successfully funded your account, taken advantage of our exciting casino bonuses to help you boost your prize potential, and hopefully scored a big payout. The next step is withdrawing your winnings.
The first thing to remember when it comes to withdrawing funds is that you must use the same fund transfer method. In addition, when using Japanese Yen, you must complete the 100% wagering requirement before withdrawing your funds.
Additional Support Services
If you need any additional support when it comes to working with fiat currencies or any financial activities, you’ll find a wealth of information at our comprehensive help center, where most FAQs are answered, or on the Stake blog.
