CASINO DEPOSITING & BANKING OPTIONS
Depositing & Banking Options
Aside from the obvious debit and credit cards, there are other ways to fund an online
casino acount, including a number of online banking services, usually referred to as eWallets. A number
of these can be used to deposit to and receive cashouts from online casinos, but each has it's quirks
and for
USA residents, these have become much more limited since the UIGEA legislation in 2006 - US
residents are however finding a lot of joy using
Ecocard.
In the links in the right navigation menu I
highlight a few of the methods that you may find suit you. Your ability to use some of
these services may sometimes depend on where you reside and the attitude in your country
towards online gambling.
For example, in the USA, credit card companies restrict the use of
credit cards and refuse
online gambling transactions due to pressure from the government. However, there are
Prepaid
credit card options available to US residents from offshore companies which act as a VISA card and
allow US residents with a checking account to deposit into the Prepaid account, then use
the Prepaid card to fund the casinos.
One of the biggest frustrations faced by casino players is the number of casinos who will
not, or cannot, refund winnings back to a "credit card". This is why it always pays to
have an eWallet, some of which provide ATM cards and methods for withdrawing back to a
bank account. Read the
eWallets section for more regarding Neteller.
