Alternative Online Casino Deposit Methods
With Mastercard® declining gambling charges and Visa® doing the same players have had to find alternative methods to make deposits and withdrawls into and out of their casino accounts. Paypal® has pulled out of this market with their being bought out. Finding the 'right' new cash processor can be a daunting task. There are many in the market and new ones opening up seemingly every day. Some will survive and some will not. You will need to be careful and try those that fit your needs and offer services to the poker rooms you wish to play.
Below is a list, albeit not all inclusive, of some of the cash processing companies available today. Not all poker rooms accept all of them so you will need to check each of them out.
Many online poker rooms are offering some very nice extra bonuses for using the new funding options to give players an incentive to make the switch. Be sure to check out the poker rooms promotion page to find out what they are currently offering.
We will stress here, CHECK THEM OUT. Ask your friends. Talk to their and the poker rooms customer service to see if the service offered fits your particular situation and of any problems can be expected. Try them with SMALL deposits and withdrawls until you are comfortable with their service. CHECK for fees. Some of these places have reasonable fees and some do not.
READ the Terms and Conditions before signing up with any ecash processor.
