iGaming stance
The official source describes the product and its use case. This is not an independently measured market-share or performance ranking.
Worth knowing: Its broader product footprint must not be presented as blanket gambling approval; confirm the country, bank and product separately.
Primary-source review: 5 October 2026. This is documentary research, not live payment testing. Provider claims are identified separately from documented terms.
The gaming offer combines bank deposits/payouts with virtual-account reconciliation and Verify account-name/number checks. Direct API and existing PSP integration are different implementation routes. Official source.
Volt's safeguarding notice distinguishes the UK EMI and Polish payment institution. Funds are segregated with banking partners, but are not covered by UK FSCS or Polish BGF deposit guarantees. Official source.
Safeguarding applies to received Volt Account funds under the relevant entity. Insolvency recovery may take time and administrator costs can reduce returns. A payment-initiation service and a held merchant account have different exposures.
Seven weighted factors produce 7.9. The heaviest is derived from the stance above, not scored by hand.
Regulatory assessment · 21 October 2026
5.5/10: a current authorisation for the contracting entity was not independently confirmed in the published evidence. The criterion is capped at 5.5 under the unverified-authorisation rubric. This is an evidence limitation, not a finding that the company is unlicensed or unlawful. For schemes and technical platforms, check the actual regulated PSP or acquirer rather than assuming the platform holds its authorisation.
Compliance criterion revised from 8.0 to 5.5 after the evidence review. Other criterion inputs were not changed.

FAQ
Gambling is the provider's core business, not a tolerated vertical. The official source describes the product and its use case. This is not an independently measured market-share or performance ranking.
Europe, LATAM. Coverage is where the rails reach — confirm acceptance for your specific licence separately, because the two are not the same thing.
We have no public rate card for Volt. No merchant-specific public figure verified in this research pass; request written terms. Ask for cost per successfully funded account under your own volume and market split rather than a headline rate.
Its broader product footprint must not be presented as blanket gambling approval; confirm the country, bank and product separately.
The score is calculated from seven weighted criteria. See the scorecard on this page for the current criterion values, weights and total, and the methodology for the formula.
