How to withdraw from Polymarket: the US app and polymarket.com

Contents

Not sure which one you use? Polymarket US is the dollar app for US residents; polymarket.com is the international exchange. What Polymarket is explains the split.

Sell, redeem or withdraw: which do you need?#

Money in an open position can't be withdrawn. Polymarket US says withdrawals can be made only from your cash balance, the money not tied to open positions or orders. So there are up to three steps.

A sale that fills against the book pays the taker fee; redeeming a winner is not a trade and pays none. The Polymarket fees guide has both schedules. If a claim fails on polymarket.com, Polymarket's claim troubleshooting page suggests checking your device clock, turning off VPNs and retrying after 5 to 10 minutes.

How to withdraw from Polymarket US#

1. Tap the Portfolio tab.
2. Tap Withdraw.
3. Tap Send to and pick a payout method.
4. Enter the amount and confirm.

Polymarket US lists these withdrawal methods:

The three withdrawal rules#

Polymarket US's withdrawal rules say they exist to meet anti-money-laundering requirements:

• Deposits must fully clear. Card and bank deposits take 3 to 4 business days, wires 1 business day. You can trade with the money before then, but you can't withdraw it or the profit made with it.
• Money goes back where it came from. Withdrawals return to the method you deposited with and can't go to a new or third-party account. If that method is closed, contact support.
• First in, first out. If you deposit $100 by card and later $200 by bank transfer, the first $100 you withdraw goes to the card.

Why can't I withdraw from Polymarket US?#

• Your deposit hasn't cleared. This is the usual cause. Business days exclude weekends and holidays; if a deposit is still pending after 5 business days, contact support.
• You picked a different method. Use the one you deposited with. A rejected bank transfer usually means old bank details, and the fix is to re-link the account (troubleshooting).
• The money is a bonus. Promotional credits can't be withdrawn, but profits made with them can, once you have linked a payment method and your first deposit has cleared.

Support is at support@polymarket.us or the in-app chat. Polymarket says the two products have separate support teams, so polymarket.com's support can't help with the US app.

How to withdraw from polymarket.com#

Polymarket's withdrawal guide gives five steps:

1. Go to your Portfolio.
2. Click Withdraw.
3. Enter the recipient address.
4. Select the token, amount and network.
5. Click Withdraw to confirm.

Your balance is pUSD, a USDC-backed token on Polygon. When you withdraw, Polymarket's bridge documentation says pUSD is unwrapped to USDC and swapped through a Uniswap pool for native USDC, and that pool can run short. If a withdrawal fails, split it into smaller amounts, wait, or withdraw pUSD itself, which needs no swap. Polymarket warns that some exchanges no longer accept pUSD deposits, so send USDC to an exchange. Above $50,000, it suggests splitting the amount or using a third-party bridge.

What you receive on each network#

We asked Polymarket's bridge quote endpoint what a 100 pUSD withdrawal would deliver on each network, at 10:06 UTC on 11 November 2026:

Every quote showed a Polymarket fee of zero; the small gaps are swap and bridge costs. Quotes are estimates, and the cross-chain ones allowed delivery to fall as low as about 97.95 USDC. Polymarket's quote documentation explains each field, and the bridge listed 237 supported assets that morning. To script withdrawals, the Polymarket API guide covers the bridge endpoints.

The withdrawal allowlist#

Polymarket's withdrawal allowlist, described on a help page updated on 10 November 2026, limits withdrawals to addresses you have saved:

• It works on accounts with a Deposit Wallet, the default for every account created since 4 May 2026. Older Safe or Proxy accounts don't see the setting yet.
• With it on, withdrawals go out only on Polygon, in USDC or USDC.e, to a saved address. You can't withdraw to another network.
• Addresses you save while setting it up work as soon as setup is done. After that, adding or removing an address, or turning the allowlist off, takes 48 hours after an emailed code.
• You can't save the wallet you sign in with. Save a hardware wallet or an exchange deposit address that accepts USDC on Polygon.

The help page says a hijacked session or a malicious request you sign can't send your funds to an address you haven't saved, though someone with your private key still can. That is the kind of attack Polymarket describes in its postmortem of 29 October 2026, when a compromised third-party script on polymarket.com used open sessions to sell positions and move funds out of some users' wallets. Polymarket says it is returning $3.9 million to affected traders.

Withdrawing from a restricted country#

In a close-only country you can still sell and withdraw, but not open new positions. Polymarket's geographic restrictions page says that in Germany existing positions must be held until the market resolves, then redeemed, after which funds can be withdrawn. For US residents with old positions, Polymarket's own pages disagree: its developer geoblock list treats the US as close-only, while the help centre, updated on 29 October 2026, lists the US as completely restricted. Ask support@polymarket.com before counting on an exit. Is Polymarket legal covers why.

How to withdraw from Polymarket to a bank account or debit card#

On Polymarket US, choose your bank or card under Send to. It must be the one you deposited with, and the money arrives in 3 to 4 business days.

Polymarket.com documents no bank or card payout: its withdrawal guide asks for a crypto address, and its allowlist page says "only crypto withdrawals are available". To reach a bank, send USDC to an exchange account in your own name, sell it for your currency there, and withdraw to your bank. The exchange's own fees and limits then apply. Polymarket's fee page says it charges nothing to withdraw USDC, though intermediaries like Coinbase or MoonPay may charge their own fees.

How to withdraw from Polymarket to Binance, Coinbase or Revolut#

1. On the exchange, open the USDC deposit screen and note which networks it accepts.
2. Pick one that Polymarket also supports. Polygon cost the least in the quotes above, and it is the only network the allowlist allows.
3. Copy the exchange's deposit address for that network.
4. On polymarket.com, choose USDC, not pUSD, and the same network, then paste the address.

Match the network exactly. Polymarket's deposit guide warns that transfers sent to the wrong chain or address cannot be reversed, and the same holds for withdrawals. Send a small amount first if you haven't used that address before.

Can I withdraw from Polymarket to PayPal or Venmo?#

On Polymarket US, yes, if you deposited with that PayPal or Venmo account. On polymarket.com, no: it documents crypto withdrawals only.

How long does a Polymarket withdrawal take?#

Polymarket US's withdrawal page says card and bank deposits clear in 3 to 4 business days. A first withdrawal can therefore take a week or more from the day you deposited.

Does Polymarket charge withdrawal fees?#

No, on either exchange. Polymarket US's withdrawal overview, linked above, calls withdrawals free, and Polymarket's bridge docs say it "does not charge withdrawal fees". What you can pay is the taker fee if you sell before the result, the swap and bridge costs shown in the quotes above, and your exchange's fees on the way to a bank.

Moving Polymarket winnings to Hyperliquid#

Polymarket's bridge lists Hyperliquid's HyperCore and HyperEVM as destinations, and the HyperCore quote above delivered 99.978 USDC for 100 pUSD. Depositing and withdrawing on Hyperliquid covers the other side.

That is where Totalis runs: a prediction market app on Hyperliquid that trades HIP-4 outcome markets as singles or as Combos of 2 to 5 legs. Totalis charges no deposit or withdrawal fee, pays the gas on withdrawals to any HyperEVM address (Totalis withdrawals), and takes withdrawals from 1 USDC (Totalis limits and fees). It has far fewer markets than Polymarket, is not available to US persons, and needs an invite code to sign up. You can see its markets on Totalis. For other venues, see Polymarket alternatives.

FAQ#

Does Polymarket US process withdrawals on weekends?#

Its timings are in business days, which exclude weekends and holidays. A Friday withdrawal by card or bank lands the following week.

Can I withdraw my Polymarket bonus?#

On Polymarket US, no: the Bonus is for trading only. Profits from trades made with it go to your cash balance and can be withdrawn.

Is there a minimum withdrawal on Polymarket?#

Neither Polymarket US nor polymarket.com publishes one on its help pages as of 11 November 2026.

Can I cancel a polymarket.com withdrawal?#

Polymarket documents no way to recall a withdrawal once it is sent on-chain. With the allowlist on, you can cancel a pending address change from the email link or in Settings.
