Can You Use Polymarket in the UK?
Polymarket is geoblocked for UK IP addresses — but UK traders can access the exact same Polymarket order book through PolyGram, a UK-accessible front-end with 0% trading fees, email login, and full USDC settlement on Polygon.
This guide walks through every step: account creation, depositing funds, placing trades, and withdrawing profits.
Step 1: Create a PolyGram Account
Visit polygram.ink and click Get Started. Sign up using your email address — no crypto wallet required at this stage. Verification takes under two minutes. PolyGram supports 30+ languages and is fully accessible from the UK.
KYC Requirements
PolyGram offers no-KYC access up to $1,500 in lifetime deposits. Above that threshold, a standard ID verification is required. The process takes 2-5 minutes using your passport or driving licence.
Step 2: Deposit Funds
Polymarket and PolyGram settle all contracts in USDC — a US dollar stablecoin on the Polygon network. UK traders have several deposit options:
- Buy USDC directly — PolyGram integrates with on-ramp providers accepting UK debit cards and bank transfers (Faster Payments, Open Banking)
- Transfer from an exchange — Send USDC from Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance to your PolyGram Polygon wallet address
- Klarna — Available via PolyGram's fiat on-ramp for eligible UK users
Minimum deposit is $10. Funds appear in your account within 1-3 minutes once the Polygon transaction confirms.
Step 3: Find and Trade Markets
PolyGram surfaces Polymarket's full order book across four categories:
- Politics — UK elections, US elections, EU policy, geopolitical events
- Crypto — BTC and ETH price targets, protocol upgrades, regulatory decisions
- Sports — Premier League, Champions League, World Cup, US sports
- World Events — Economics, science, entertainment, miscellaneous
Each market shows a YES price (the market's probability estimate) and a NO price. To trade:
- Open any market and review the current odds
- Enter your stake in USDC
- Select YES (event happens) or NO (event doesn't happen)
- Confirm the order — it executes on the Polymarket CLOB instantly
Step 4: Monitor Your Positions
Your portfolio page shows all open positions with real-time mark-to-market profit and loss. You can close positions early to lock in gains or cut losses before the market resolves.
Step 5: Withdraw Your Winnings
Resolved markets pay out USDC automatically to your PolyGram balance, typically within an hour of the final result. To withdraw:
- Go to your wallet and tap Withdraw
- Enter a Polygon USDC address (your exchange or personal wallet)
- New addresses require a 24-hour security whitelist — or skip the wait using 2FA
There are no withdrawal fees charged by PolyGram. Standard Polygon gas fees apply (typically under $0.01).
