Greece is not on any reported Polymarket restriction list, so access is generally available. That is not the same as saying prediction markets are licensed locally — confirm in-app before funding.
Status: Not on any restriction list · Verified 17 August 2026
Access status in Greece
Not on any reported restriction list. Greece's HGC licenses gambling and maintains a blacklist.
It means Greece is not among the countries Polymarket has been reported to block. It is not a statement that prediction markets are licensed or affirmatively legal in Greece, and it is not legal advice. Gambling and derivatives law differ by country and change. Confirm access in the app, and take local advice if the amounts matter.
Funding from Greece
Local rails available from Greece: USDC on Polygon; SEPA and card on-ramps.
The international exchange settles in USDC (native Polygon USDC) on Polygon PoS. Gas is paid in POL — note that this token was renamed from MATIC, so older guides naming MATIC are out of date.

Network gas only (well under $0.01) | Under a minute |

Check in-app availability for Greece before funding. 18+. Event contracts carry risk of loss.
You appear to be in the US. Polymarket’s international exchange blocks US IP addresses — use Polymarket US, the CFTC-regulated exchange, instead. See what’s available in your state.
Greece questions
Can I use Polymarket in Greece?
Greece is not on any reported restriction list, so access is generally available. Confirm in the app before funding — this is not legal advice.
What does it cost to trade from Greece?
The fee schedule is the same wherever you trade from. On the international exchange it is a per-category taker fee — Geopolitics markets are free, and the peak fee is $1.75 per 100 shares in Crypto markets. Makers pay nothing. See the full fee breakdown.
How do I withdraw to a local bank account from Greece?
Withdraw USDC on Polygon to an exchange that supports your local currency, sell to fiat, then withdraw to your bank. Our withdrawal guide walks through the whole route and the failure modes.
What are the alternatives from Greece?
HGC-licensed operators. Kalshi and PredictIt are both US-only, so they are not substitutes outside the US. See our alternatives comparison.
