Virgin Games Casinos Bank App approval for deposit

[steveh35]

So I updated my debit card and now if i deposit at a Virgin Games casino they are making me approve it via my mobile banking app, this has never happened to me before I thought it would be a one off as my card has been updated but no now every time you need to find your phone open the app and approve.

Is this a new UKGC policy or Virgin Games being particularly annoying?

I have to approve most online purchases, and most deposits to betting sites, via my banking app. I think its just an added layer of security from the banks.

Same for me using Kraken for the purchase of crypto. Since about 2 weeks, I have to approve each purchase via my banking app, where previously this occasionally happened.

Agreed. Also reduces bank chargeback cases due to people approving the purchases in their app.
