Short answer: a voucher is Bovada's player-to-player withdrawal. You request a "Voucher" withdrawal in the cashier, Bovada takes about 24 hours to approve it, and then emails you a unique code. Whoever enters that code in their own Bovada cashier gets the money in their account straight away. Bovada does not charge a fee for voucher withdrawals. Everything below comes from Bovada's own Voucher and Financial help pages, checked on 12 November 2026. Check the cashier too, because methods and limits can vary by account.
How does a Bovada voucher withdrawal work?
Bovada describes vouchers as a way to send funds from your account to other Bovada players. The steps it lists are:
- Click the profile icon at the top of any page.
- Click Withdraw.
- Select Voucher from your payment methods.
- Enter the amount and any other required info, then click Request Withdrawal.
- Check your email for Bovada's confirmation. Bovada says it takes approximately 24 hours to approve the withdrawal before it sends the voucher to the same email address.
- The approval email contains a unique code. The other player enters it as a deposit, and Bovada says that deposit shows on their balance instantly.
Your withdrawal amount leaves your balance as soon as you submit the request, like every Bovada withdrawal. While it is pending, that money cannot be wagered.
Bovada voucher limits and fees
| Detail | What Bovada publishes |
|---|---|
| Minimum | $10 |
| Maximum | $3,000 |
| Frequency | No limit listed |
| Approval | About 24 hours, then the code is emailed |
| Bovada fee | None |
| Code expiry | An unclaimed code expires after 6 months, and the funds are lost |
Two more rules are worth knowing. Bonuses cannot be redeemed with voucher deposits. And funds deposited by voucher carry a 1x rollover before the receiver can withdraw them, according to Bovada's Vouchers Terms of Use.
How do I deposit with a Bovada voucher?
If someone sends you a code: open the cashier, click Deposit, choose Voucher, paste the code (Bovada recommends copying it straight from the email) and click Continue. You get a confirmation once the funds are in. Anyone with a Bovada account can deposit with a voucher code, and the person who withdrew can also re-deposit their own code.

How to sell a Bovada voucher safely
Bovada points buyers and sellers to the Bovada Community forum. A trade is set up in a "Voucher Transfer" post and finished in a Private Message. Bovada's own best practices are clear:
- Your voucher withdrawal must already be processed, with the code in your email, before you start a trade.
- Keep all trade communication inside the Community.
- The buyer's payment should not allow a reversal. Bovada gives Zelle or cryptocurrency as examples.
- Funds are transferred before the voucher code is sent, and screenshots of the payment are encouraged.
- Flag anything suspicious and message a Community moderator.
Read Bovada's terms before you trade. The Vouchers Terms of Use say the sender and receiver are solely responsible for any arrangement between them, and Bovada is not responsible for loss or misuse. That is the trade-off with any peer-to-peer method, so only trade with people and payment methods you trust.
Voucher vs Player Transfer vs MatchPay
Bovada has three player-to-player options, and they are easy to mix up:
- Voucher: $10 to $3,000, code by email after about 24 hours, no Bovada fee.
- Player Transfer: you send funds straight to another player's username, $10 to $15,000 per Bovada's Player Transfer page. Bovada says Player Transfer withdrawals cannot be cancelled once requested.
- MatchPay: a peer-to-peer marketplace that matches you with users paying through apps such as PayPal, Venmo, Zelle and Cash App. Bovada lists MatchPay withdrawals at $10 to $2,000, up to 2 per calendar day. I cover it in how to withdraw from Bovada to Cash App.
If you simply want your own money in your own wallet as fast as possible, Bovada itself recommends crypto: once approved, Bitcoin arrives within up to 24 hours, and Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV, Ethereum, USD Tether and Litecoin within up to 1 hour. My crypto withdrawal guide walks through it, and Bovada withdrawal limits and fees compares every method.
Common voucher problems
- No email after 24 hours: check spam, then check Pending Withdrawals in your account. Bovada may ask for verification documents before paying any withdrawal. See my Bovada KYC and ID verification guide.
- Code will not redeem: paste it rather than typing it, and make sure it has not already been used or expired.
- Withdrawal cancelled: Bovada requires deposits to be wagered completely before winnings can be withdrawn. There is an exception for peer-to-peer methods when you re-deposit a previous withdrawal. If a request is stuck, read why your Bovada withdrawal is pending.
