How to use the Stake Vault

The Stake Vault is a secure, 2FA-protected space to store your funds, separate from your playable balance.

On Stake.com, the Vault gives you a separate place to hold supported local currencies and cryptocurrencies.

Think of the Vault as your own digital wallet. It works like a savings account for your Stake balance, giving you control over when your funds become available for play.

The following page covers what the Stake Vault is and why it’s useful for your everyday gaming needs.

What is the Vault on Stake.com?

The Vault on Stake.com is a separate storage area for funds held in your account. It works like a digital wallet, while remaining connected to your Stake balance.

The Vault supports both cryptocurrency and local currency. You can hold supported currencies there and move them back to your playable balance whenever you need them.

How to use the Vault?

You can use the Stake Vault by moving your funds between your Vault and your playable balance when needed. The Vault can receive eligible promotions, competitions, giveaways, and staking rewards.

The Vault is securely accessible from desktop and from Android and iOS smartphones and tablets. It keeps your balance separate until you decide to use it, wherever you are. This makes it useful when you want to store crypto or separate your balance from active play on the go.

How do you access the Vault?

You can access the Stake Vault from your account menu on desktop or mobile.

1. Log in to your Stake.com account.

2. Open the main user menu.

3. Select ‘Account.’

4. Choose ‘Vault.’

5. Follow the prompts to set up your available security options.

First-time Vault access requires security verification. This can include 2FA (2-factor authentication), a password check, or other account security settings.

Available security options can change as Stake updates its account features. For another layer of account protection, you can use the Passkey feature .

How do you move funds in and out of the Vault?

3. Choose the currency you want to move.

4. Enter the amount you want to store.

5. Confirm the transfer when prompted.

When you complete a fiat or crypto deposit at Stake.com, you can add your chosen currency to the Vault. Moving funds into the Vault keeps them separate from your playable balance.

Is money in the Stake Vault safe?

Yes, the Stake Vault adds another layer of protection with 2FA /two-factor authentication , alongside your account password and other available security options.

The Vault is designed to separate stored funds from your playable online casino balance. That separation gives you another way to control when funds become available for play.

In addition to the site-wide security measures we implement to protect the funds in your balance, the Vault is bolstered by 2FA. Good account security starts with you. Use a strong password and keep your authentication details private.

Stake also provides additional account security options, including passkeys . Review the available passkey feature settings through the Stake Help Centre .

The Vault is part of Stake’s wider approach to online betting security. You should still use it alongside sensible account security habits.

What are the benefits of using the Stake Vault?

The main benefits of using the Vault are stronger separation, easier fund management, and added account protection.

The Vault helps separate your stored funds from active gaming funds and reduces the need for repeated external crypto transfers.

Using the Vault can help you manage your balance without making an external crypto transfer every time. That can matter when you want to avoid unnecessary transaction fees, blockchain processing times and external transfers.

What can you store in the Vault?

You can safely store supported local currencies and cryptocurrencies in the Stake Vault. Examples include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT), and Litecoin (LTC).

Stake regularly updates its supported currency selection. See the wide selection of cryptocurrencies available on Stake.com for the current list.

The Vault can function much like a crypto wallet, but it is built into your Stake account. Your currency balance remains separate from your playable balance until you choose to move it.

Can you store local currency in the Stake Vault?

Yes, you can also store supported local currencies in the Vault. This means the Vault isn't limited to crypto assets. The exact local currencies available may depend on your account and Stake.com's current support.

How long can you keep funds in the Vault?

You can store funds in your Vault for as long as you maintain a Stake.com account.

This makes the Vault useful for funds you do not plan to use immediately. You can leave them until you decide to move them back to your playable balance.

Does the Vault charge fees for moving funds?

No. Moving funds between your Vault and playable balance is an internal account transfer. It does not require an external blockchain transaction.

External deposits and withdrawals can have different processing rules. Always check the current terms and payment info before moving funds outside Stake.com.
