Skrill

Skrill is a European online payment system that is available to residents of Nigeria and some other 200 countries/territories. It offers an online gateway to e-commerce merchants and an online wallet to individuals and organizations. Skrill started out named Moneybookers in 2001 and is based in London, United Kingdom with an office in Miami, USA. It is popular with industries including online betting, online games, and forex trading.

  • Shop Online: it is possible to make online purchases from hundreds of merchants across the globe offering products and services.
  • Buy Cryptocurrency: users can buy any of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ether, Ethereum Classic, Litecoin, XRP and 0x, instantly.

Open Skrill Account

It is easy to open a Skrill Account through their website.
You would need:

  • an email address – the address would need to be verified
  • bank account – this would also help with verification
  • a Visa / MasterCard credit or debit card

Skrill Login / Sign In

In addition to logging in to the account from their website, their Android and iOS apps for iPhones, iPads and Android smartphones are also very useful.
The mobile app is a very useful way to manage the account.

Funding your Account in Nigeria

It is against Skrill’s terms of service for it to be bought or sold through an online digital currency exchange. Thus, you cannot buy Skrill in Nigeria like you would Bitcoins or say Perfect Money. You can, however, fund your account via a SWIFT Bank Transfer or a linked valid Visa card.

      1. This is the same thing I thought when I registered. I thought it would be easy. Now am done with a freelance job and payment was made to my Skrill account but verification is being rejected. I have NIN slip no international passport or drivers license. I was hoping if I get new voters card maybe it will be accepted. My money is there and I can’t withdraw without verification.

  12. If I want to withdraw money from outside nigeria via skrill, am I going to put
    skrill Id number as my account number or my Nigeria bank account number, pls this is causing big confusion

      1. What about withdrawal, how do I send funds in my skrill account to my Nigeria Bank account without a domiciliary account

  13. Please i know skrill and neteller are from the same parent company so i have a question that concerns both. I have created a skrill and neteller account but I’m scared of putting my money in as i don’t want to be stuck in a situation where i wont be able to withdraw or transfer it. I notice you’re selectively replying to people so your response to this would guide me to either continue with the process or just quit both because i want to use both for business transactions. Here are the questions below;
    1. On my neteller and skrill using the US Dollar currency, can i receive and transfer money to another neteller and skrill subscriber accounts respectively who’s using another currency, Like USD receiving/ transfer to GBP? If yes, are there any charges for currency conversion?
    2. Is there any ID Verification needed to withdraw or transfer?
    3. When withdrawing from my USD skrill or neteller account to my bank account in Nigeria that uses Naira currency, would there be extra charges for currency conversion?
    4. Like Upaycard.io, does skrill or neteller converts USD to Bitcoin (Currency Exchange) and then allows you transfer the Bitcoin to another crypto wallet outside neteller or skrill?
    5. I don’t have a Visa card, i only have a Mastercard, can i use it to fund my neteller and skrill accounts?
    6. What are the maximum tranfer and receiving limits per day or per transaction?

    Please, i have paused my registration with both platforms because i don’t want to make errors. Your reply would really help.

    1. 1. Skrill allows you to send money in more than 40 different currencies. Currency conversion fees may apply.
      2. No. This is only done once when your account is being verified.
      3. Yes. Skrill will charge you 3.99% for currency conversion (separate from their withdrawal fees) from USD to EUR and your Nigerian bank would charge you again for EUR to NGN.
      4. Skrill allows conversion to Bitcoin but you can’t withdraw to another BTC wallet – unfortunately.
      5. It can be funded with Mastercard or Visa. They charge 1% for this.
      6. This would depend on the status of your account as to whether it is verified or not. I am unable to confirm the exact limits.

  14. Please i hope you answer my question as i am at a serious crossroads. i would love to know if i can fund my skrill account or neteller account with my visa or master card here in Nigeria then when my wallets in skrill or neteller is credited i can further transfer the funds to a merchant. I ask this cause i was told that if you credit via debit card to your skrill account you wont be able to transfer such funds to a merchant that it can only be transferred to a bank account.

  15. Hello, my skrill account is new and i have not deposited any money in it. Can i still receive money into it via a transfer from another skrill account?

  16. I just opened a skrill account, I’m yet to fund it, please can I receive skrill transfer from other skrill user to my skrill account?

  17. I deposited money on my skrill account through mastercard , but now i can’t be able to withdraw the money or even use to purchase, am in dilemma. Please help.

      1. This skrill has a big question mark, if they want to operates in Nigeria then they should have an agent here. The challenges of depositing/withdrawal/transfering of money through skrill are so much.

    1. Odison,
      Unfortunately you may be stuck with Skrill for some time. So many people have complained about Skrill holding to clients’ money in the name of verification. I deposited some money into my Skrill account, and submitted all documents to verify my account. Till now I can’t access my funds – I can’t withdraw it or use it for the purpose for which I opened the account.

  18. Please must I use a domiciliary account with Skrill or a savings account will suffice for wire transfer into the account

  19. Hi Web4Africa Nigeria, I most say am especially thrilled to see your follow up guides on those misconcepted matters relating to skrill account. I just had most my thought arising questions answered already!!
    I can now proceed in opening my very own skrill account for my online transactions; am already frustrated enough using the PayPal transfer, as can’t transfer my funds to my Nigerian account. “Kudos to all team skrill”

      1. Please how can I withdraw money from my PayPal account, I have open PayPal account my e-mail and phone number have been verified. The problem is how do I withdraw money from my PayPal account to my local bank account in Nigeria. Thanks .

  20. I want to deposit money in to my olymptrade account using Skrill but I was ask to add a card and I added my master card which I used to fund my Skrill account. I was told that master card is not surported. Please what should I do?

    1. Run away from Skrill. You will deposit but won’t be able to withdraw or use your money. My money has been trapped over a month now. I’ve tried all means to withdraw but no way. They’re thieves. Their customer service is total nonsense!

      1. Another way out is to use your money there now to pay for online stuff. That was what I did so as not to loose out completely

  21. Hi web4Africa Nigeria. I must recommend your effort towards attending to our curiosities, I’m well convinced and I’m registering skrill. Kudos to u.

      1. I made a deposit of $97 with my gtb master card to my skrill account. But I have been denied access to the fund that the master card can not be used for online payment. In was also denied withdrawal of the fund. I have send a mail to them yet non response. Please advice

  22. which bank in nigeria is best for skrill, please i want to open a bank account for skrill and i’m confused pls??

  23. A friend of mine was trying to use first Bank visa card but did not work so please which bank do you recommend me to use..

  24. pls i asked again, I need your answer..

    which bank in nigeria is best for skrill, please i want to open a bank account for skrill and i’m confused pls??

  25. ((You can only upload funds in Skrill with a Visa card.
    Access Bank, Standard Charted Bank, First Bank, Stanbic IBTC etc all issue Visa Naira cards in Nigeria.))

    👆👆👆👆👆👆👆
    Please I do not understand what you mean by all isseue Visa Naira cards in Nigeria..

  26. Hello web4africa
    I think I’m observing from recent question asked here. The skrill account aside from the Visa card accepting funding and sending money with the card Dey also accept funding from the MasterCard but can’t send money funded with the master card.

    I think I should be right on this ?

      1. Alright, I have fund with MasterCard but can’t send to marchant.
        I needed to send money to an email.

        1. I think skrill is useless without verification. You can only receive money or deposit money in it. But you won’t be able to withdraw your money again.
          The verification process is very hectic. They might end up not verifying you sef.

  27. I withdraw from my skrill account to my bank account how will it takes for me to see the alert

  28. I need to be cleared here, where did domiciliary account or ATM comes in? Should I fund with a naira account ATM or domiciliary account ATM, please explain it well.

  29. please have been trying to found my account through visa card but the response is always transaction failed. contact your bank for more information. when I contacted my bank I was told the problem must be from skrill. kindly help me if you have any way out on that. thank you.

      1. Web4Africa

        How long does it take Skrill to verify an account? I opened a Skrill account, deposited some money through my MasterCard and sent all the documents they required. Up till now my account is yet to be verified. I tried to check their review on Play Store, I was shocked to read very negative comments. Some people complaint that for months now they can’t do anything with their fund and Customer Care is not responding to their complaints. I think people should be careful with Skrill and Netteler.

        1. Hello web4africa please, I need your urgent assistant please can I fund my skrill account with my dollar card. Please I will really appreciate it if I get a reply from you.

  33. Hello Web4africa i must say you are doing a big job i so much appreciate for the assistance and time.
    Please i funded my Binary.com account with my MasterCard and the account is in Gbp, when i now decided to withdraw again with my MasterCard the system denied me the assess as to perform the action, but gave me option to do so with a skrill or neteller, but in this case i will prefer to use skrill. So can i just open a skrill account and without funding it and use it to withdraw?

  34. I have an issue to sort out with Skrill. Do they have a physical office here in Nigeria?? Also why do they allow people to pay without verifying their account. What happens to the money when they are unable to verify such account?

  35. I have full very my skill account and my limit has been extend , so I have click a withdrawal request, and I want to ask that how long will it take the money before reaching my bank account

  36. I really don’t know why people still use skrill. Their very negative online reviews should tell you every thing you need to know about them. I have a skrill account which i no longer use because of the fraudulent conversion rates and precessing fees they charge. When you want to withdraw money, they charge high processing fees and then pay you at a conversion rate of $1 = N290 as opposed to $1 = N365. Total ripoff!!!

    1. Still same thing going on my mind. Someone recommended Skrill to me but from what I’m reading here I don’t think I’m ready to go through this troubles
      Why accept deposits when an account have not been verified
      Why accept deposit with Naira MasterCard when I can’t withdraw with it.

  37. I need a quick reply on this…. I made a withdrawal on my skrill account in less than an hour now and the money hasn’t been deposited into my bank account yet… I used UBA visa debit card…. Please what’s happening

  38. I have MasterCard as you said it can be able to deposits but can’t be withdrawn, can I use another person’s visacard to withdraw and how long to reflect?

  39. Please does skrill still work in Nigeria I want to open an a there is a rumor that it doesn’t work in Nigeria

  40. I deposited with Master card via local bank and i wanted to withdraw my money to local bank,the system asked me to verified my account to exceed my limit , the account has been verified, but still display exceed your limit, i want to know what is going….. May be their is way to withdraw to local bank,,, pls i need solution..

  41. LET ME TYPE THIS IN CAPITAL LETTER…

    STAY AWAY FROM SKRILL.

    I HAVE HAD HORRIBLE EXPERIENCES.

    IF YOU DEPOSIT $100 AND WANT TO GET BACK NOW NOW, YOU MAY END UP WITH $50.

    CUSTOMER CARE ZERO

  42. I opened an account and I want it denominated in USD and not EURO. How do I change it

  43. Please can I withdraw from my Skrill account to my Nigeria account after the money is been send to me from USA?

  44. Please I need to know if I can withdraw my money from skrill to a normal Nigerian account or it must be to a domociliary account…

  45. I am Suleiman aminu and I happen to be one of the victim that skrill scam, please I am sending this out of experience if there is anyone who is willing to open an account with them please don’t do so because I swear to God they are going to use your inexperience to steal your money. a friend of mine send $100 to my account but I can’t withdraw the money because of their so called verification, and ofcourse now the account has been restricted.. please and please don’t open an account with them they are thieves.

  46. Thanks for the information.

    is it the one I used to register or
    They will give me one with which one can till on online company?

  47. Pls i need clarification on how to use skrill to receive payment online for a freelance job i did, to be specific i am finding it difficult knowing which account number to put, is it my local bank account number?

  48. Hello please i’m having very serious issues with my skrill account. I can’t transfer funds to another skrill account. I’ve contacted the customer care but i still did get any solution that worked. Please what do i do?

  49. I want to withdraw money from an online trading platform..they are requesting for withdrawal account..how do I get my skill account

    1. In the verification process my Skrill account was permanently closed, o tried with another mail but they said similar account found. Please can someone one help me out?

    1. As today 14th March 2021 no Naira denominated card works on Skrill/neteller, if you choose the option to makeoney available for gambling and you can’t even use the account without verification. If you have already opened an account and you want to verify it and don’t have a good quality ID, down load NIMC app on Google play store intall, enter details, and register. You can get a good quality national ID on PDF print, print it coloured, cut and laminate Skrill/neteller accepts it

      If you can get a physical electricity bill fine not electronic generated, but try turning on your goodle location they can also verify your location that way.

      Generally it is not convenient to use neteller/Skrill as before. CBN policies have forced Banks to restrict naira denominated cards in dealing with anything that relates to forex. Best is to get a domeciliary account and a dollar master card in which case, you may not need Skrill/ neteller.

      Skrill customer care is only for VIP skrillers so don’t waste your time.

      It is illegal to buy/sale Skrill/neteller but if you are pushed to do so exchangers charge higher rates and most of the are scams

      1. Thanks for sharing. This is very APT. Meanwhile, what’s the way forward now that CBN resrtricts deposit to sites like Skrill/ Neteller?

  50. Please money was transfer to me from United state of America with Skrill app, to my Nigeria bank account, how long will it take for me to receive it. It’s has been showing pending for 2 days now.

  51. My account they sent me money $177 and my money was not able to withdraw they told me to verify it with documents and the once I bring they don’t accept it am confused

    1. Skrill is a fraudulent company. It’s just unfortunate we have to use it to receive funds. They can freeze your funds at will even after verification. Again, they exchange 1dollar for 293naira. Time to explore other online wallets with better reputation and exchange rate.

  52. I have opened a Skrill account which I have not funded yet. I also have a PayPal account which I have been using to make payments. From what I have read so far, it may be that I should use Skrill to receive money and employ PayPal for payments. What is your take on this?

  53. Thanks For this Article Please I want to know if received Money in my Skrill wallet i can be able to transfer it to my Nigeria Bank account?

  54. pls can I use my master card to fund my account in skrill ?
    pls will I be able to send or transfer money from my skrill account to another skrill account or email address

    1. Yes you can. Keep in mind that you won’t be allowed to use the fund on any website that accepts master card.

  55. I’m having a big problem with my skrill account, if I knew skrill is like this I will not even come to them, I deposited $12 into my skrill account via first bank MasterCard having it in mind to transfer $10 into my iq option account, skrill ask me to verify my account in which I have done, still after the verification I can’t still transfer the money nor even withdraw it back.

      1. Good day web4africa.
        Please can I use a UBA visa card with a different name to fund my skrill naira account?

        If yes, can I withdraw or send my naira from skrill to a USD virtual account?

  69. Hello web4africa, please can I receive a skrill to skrill transfer from usa to Nigeria with my skrill account email??

    1. You should be able to, but Skrill usually places some restrictions on USA-based accounts in other to comply with US law that forbids online gambling. I strongly suggest you consult Skrill for further assistance in this matter.

  70. Please I open skrill account today, but hv not concluded on the part of verification which I will later do by submitting those required documents.

    My question is can I get funded from abroad into my skrill account directly and also I sign up using my visa account which is domicile in naira., can I with my money from skrill account to my domiciliary account with the excess of 1000 dollars., I will really appreciate your feedback thank.

    1. You should verify your Skrill account before funding it at all.
      The Naira Visa card has little to do with what you explained.
      Where necessary, you can withdraw the funds to your USD Domiciliary account.

  71. How long does it take for funds to enter my account if I used Visa card to withdraw from Skrill

  72. Please i made a withdrawal from my skrill account to my Nigeria bank account since Saturday , thou it show processed but i am yet to receive the money i my bank account, what could cause the problem

    1. You can use either Drivers license, national ID, or international passport. Then you will need your bank statement or utility bills (giving in the 90 days). Also make sure it contains the exact address you used to register your Skrill account.

  73. A merchant sent me some amount into my skrill account but when I wanted to withdraw to my bank, there was a “not available in your country ” error message. Pls what can be done

    1. If you have a friend staying abroad, try and transfer the money to them. And find an alternative means like (Western Union) to get your money back

    1. No but it is advisable not to use the service because their account verification can be very difficult and you won’t be able to withdraw your money until your account has been verified.

  74. I noticed your last answer was in January; I hope you answer my questions.

    1.) I do not have a domiciliary account, can funds in my skrill account be transferred directly to my already existing naira account? If no how do I access the funds.

    2.)with respect to recent closure of accounts that have accepted cryptocurrencies by federal government, will it in any way affect transfer of funds from my skrill account to my naira account.
    Thanks.

  75. Pls can you transfer skrill to skrill without full verification?. They have already accepted my passport but it is remaining to provide them with documents (bank statement).

  76. I opened a skrill account and deposited some money but they could not verify my documents . To withdraw the money , to put my account details they now said Nigerian account is not supported . Please how do I get my money back.

    Please what do I do?

    1. The best option would be to transfer the money to a friend of yours (if you have) living abroad so they can transfer it back to you. But they might still prevent you from doing that so alternatively you can try and verify your account first.

  77. I funded by Skrill account several times with issue via Visa card deposit, and now that I want to withdraw it’s showing my account is locked and needs to be verified to be able to use any more services. Before opening an account with Skrill I read clearly that an unverified account and withdraw but the limit would be $50. How do I get my money back?
