Every on-chain transfer pays a fee to the network, not to the casino. On busy networks these fees rise, which can make small deposits disproportionately expensive.

Lower-fee networks and stablecoins on cheaper chains are often used for smaller amounts. Some casinos also charge their own withdrawal fees, which should be listed in the cashier or terms.

Before sending, compare the total cost — network fee plus any casino fee — against the amount you plan to deposit.
