Casino Deposit Guide

With the current USA ban on gambling & casino deposits, it has made it rather difficult for many online casino players. Basically what this means is that all casino transactions to and from casino will not be accepted by financial institutions based in the USA. Unfortunately over the last few months this ban has also included other funding options that USA online casino players may use.

At this time (February 2007) Neteller & Firepay have withdrawn their services to all USA online gamblers. I believe that Click2Pay will also follow suit very soon too. Although I feel this is a stupid law, it's still a law and as such I'm not about to run the gauntlet and risk a backlash by providing effective means for USA players to deposit.

Neteller

Opened in 2000 and in one of the most trusted casino deposit methods available. It is in affect a web wallet that allows members to deposit funds via Visa or bank wire funds from their bank to the Neteller bank account, which then credits your Neteller account with these funds. Funds can be withdrawn via cheque, wire or their own ATM card.
Neteller is a free service, it takes a few minutes to join.

Visa & Mastercard

Deposits are instantly credited to your casino account. However there are a few downsides to funding your online casino account. Firstly your bank will charge this as a cash advance. Secondly winning can not be credited back, you'll get winnings via bank wire or cheque.

Firepay

Another of the many web wallets that were established in 2000, Firepay acts like a debit card and is available to Canadian & United Kingdom customers. FirePay UK Ltd is authorised & regulated by the Financial Services Authority.

Moneybookers

Has been established since 2003 it accepts many currencies and allows members to deposit via direct bank transfer or via credit card. It also offer member to member transfers. This is a great alternative to Neteller. Authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority of the United Kingdom (FSA).
