Getting Started: Funding Your PolyGram Account from the United Kingdom
Although Polymarket restricts access for users in the UK, PolyGram provides unrestricted access to the identical CLOB order book alongside purpose-built UK funding solutions. Every contract resolves in USDC across the Polygon blockchain.
Funding Options for UK-Based Traders on PolyGram
Bank Transfer (Faster Payments / Open Banking)
British traders may credit their PolyGram wallet using Faster Payments via PolyGram's fiat gateway partner. Your deposit converts to USDC instantly and settles in roughly 5 minutes. The floor is £10 per transaction. PolyGram itself levies no charge — the gateway operator takes 1–1.5%.
Debit & Credit Card
Mastercard and Visa debit cards are both supported. Your issuing bank might reject credit card transactions if flagged as a cash advance — debit remains the safer choice. The on-ramp charges roughly 1.8% per deposit.
Klarna
Klarna's Pay Later service is available for qualifying UK members. You can execute trades immediately and repay over a 30-day interest-free window. Eligibility requires an active, compliant Klarna account.
Crypto (USDC, ETH, BTC)
Transfer USDC to your PolyGram Polygon address straight from your exchange account (Coinbase, Kraken, Binance). You may also send ETH or BTC — PolyGram's conversion layer handles the swap to USDC automatically. This route suits high-volume traders best. Polygon confirmations happen within 60 seconds.
