Betway on your bank statement
Betway Limited, based in Gzira, Malta, runs four open sites, including Jackpot City and Hippodrome Online. Seeing Betway on bank statement entries usually means someone made a deposit at one of them.
How it can appear
Banks often shorten or alter merchant names, so the charge could appear in any of these six forms. None of them has yet been confirmed on a real statement.

Betway charges FAQ
Is a Betway charge a scam?
Not usually. Most Betway charges are genuine deposits at a Betway Limited site, and the person behind them often shares the card. If nobody in your household made the payment, treat it as unauthorised and tell your bank.
Can I get the money back?
Possibly. Where neither you nor anyone you allowed to use the card authorised the payment, your bank must investigate, and unauthorised payments are usually refunded. Report it promptly once you spot it.
How do I block Betway payments?
Ask the Betway site to close the account or set up self-exclusion. Registering with GAMSTOP blocks every UK-licensed site. You can also switch on the gambling block in your banking app.
