The FanDuel gift card is available via Play+, one of the most secure prepaid card companies in the world. With your loaded card, you can enjoy more secure deposits and quicker withdrawals compared to other payment methods.
What’s more, you can use your Play+ prepaid card to fund your account and play on any of FanDuel’s platforms, depending on what is available in your state. From daily fantasy sports to sports betting and casino – FanDuel has a range of options. Below, you can find out how to get a card and how to use it.
Like many online sportsbooks and casinos, FanDuel offers its own branded prepaid card via Play+. Effectively, this is a card that you can preload with cash and then use to fund your FanDuel sportsbook, online casino or DFS account.
You can also withdraw your winnings directly to the card, with the FanDuel withdrawal time being quicker than for most other payment methods available. Additionally, with a Play+ card, you can also spend your winnings directly – it also works just like a standard debit card, so you don’t have to move the money to your bank account first.
Here are the main pros and cons of using a FanDuel gift card for your online gambling and/or fantasy sports account:
To make this process quicker the next time around, you can save your card and set up one-click transactions.
As spoken about above, the gift card is also one of the quickest and most secure withdrawal methods available at FanDuel.
*If you used Play+ for previous deposits, it will automatically be presented as the main withdrawal option.
It can take up to 48 hours for your first Play+ card withdrawal request to be approved, but in fairness, it’s often much quicker. Your first withdrawal always takes longer due to essential verification processes, but subsequent transactions are much faster.
Once the initial approval is complete, you should receive the funds on your Play+ card within an hour. For comparison, bank transactions can take up to five business days and check withdrawals take up to 14 days to reach your account, so all in all, Play+ is much more efficient.
An alternative to using the FanDuel gift card directly is the Visa gift card. You can get these at the counter of many retail stores in the US, and they can be used to deposit funds into your FanDuel account the same way as you would use a regular Visa credit or debit card.
Every Visa gift card comes with a 16-digit card number and a three-digit security code. Therefore to fund your account with one of these, you just need to follow the credit/debit card instructions as outlined in my FanDuel online casino reviews.

At the end of the day, if you want to fund your account quickly and securely, then the FanDuel Play+ card is one of the best options around. Additionally, you get fast withdrawals and you can spend your winnings directly at many online and in-person retail and hospitality outlets. That being said, if you want a slightly more flexible option, then the Visa gift card is a good alternative.
Strictly speaking, they are not called gift cards, but you can purchase a FanDuel-branded Play+ card online. Just go to the Play+ site, select FanDuel from the list of casino options and follow the instructions.
There are two places where you can get a FanDuel prepaid card. Firstly, you can go to the Play+ website, select your state and then choose FanDuel from the list of partners. Alternatively, you can choose “Play+” from the list of deposit options in your FanDuel account and set it up from there.
Yes, you can withdraw your funds back onto your FanDuel card. Additionally, you can also spend your winnings directly using the card at any retailer that accepts it. For more info, check out my guides and reviews TheGruelingTruth.com.
