Funding Your PolyGram Account from the United Kingdom
PolyGram offers unrestricted access to the same CLOB order book available elsewhere, complete with deposit methods tailored for UK residents. Polymarket itself restricts UK access, but PolyGram bridges that gap. All positions settle in USDC across the Polygon network.
Funding Options for UK-Based Traders on PolyGram
Faster Payments & Open Banking Solutions
British account holders can top up via Faster Payments using PolyGram's fiat gateway partner. Your sterling converts to USDC instantly, with funds typically reflecting in your wallet within 5 minutes. Entry threshold stands at £10. PolyGram itself levies no charge; the gateway operator applies a 1–1.5% conversion margin.
Credit and Debit Cards
Both Visa and Mastercard debit instruments work seamlessly. Note that credit card transactions occasionally trigger decline flags when your issuer interprets the transaction as a cash-like advance — switching to a debit card mitigates this friction. The gateway charges roughly 1.8% per transaction.
Klarna Payment Plans
Klarna's buy-now-pay-later service integrates for qualified UK participants. Execute trades immediately whilst deferring payment across a 30-day interest-free window. You'll need an active, compliant Klarna account to qualify.
Digital Assets (USDC, ETH, BTC)
Transfer USDC directly to your PolyGram Polygon address from major venues like Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance. Alternatively, deposit ETH or BTC — the platform's bridge mechanism handles conversion to USDC automatically. For high-frequency operators, this route offers the lowest friction and cost. Polygon settlement occurs in under sixty seconds.
