Your Favourite Deposit Method

[Luciana]

Hi there

 

A simple question for all of you - what deposit method do you prefer and use mostly? Why?

 

I've noticed in some meetings and conversations with casino representatives, that they would like to know what's most common or favorite deposit method our players are using... so, your turn

 

I'm listening!

[LordCronal]

I use mostly Paysafe-cards, sometimes Skrill. Not any others.

ONCE used PayPal when I played in Betfair.

Well I use Paysafe and UKASH all the time as I didn't want to use my card but then once I started using my cardi use that most of time, well that and Moneybookers. The food thing with moneybookers is as soon as the withdrawal is processed its pretty much instant for the funds and I have their per paid card so I can go and withdraw it then at the cashpoint.

 

I sometimes use neteller not vey often though, and again I have the card to withdraw at the ATM

Oh I suppose I could mention in here I had an email off Moneybookers today saying their are currently offering a refer a friend program. For every friend you refer you get €5 put in your account. (The 'friend' has to deposit into their account before you receive the free money)

 

I suppose its a little money if you got lots of friends to refer lol

Let me share my two cents about my favorite deposit methods. Don't forget that depositing in online gambling is a little bit strange as a procedure, since you must think of a withdrawal at the same time! You know that 99% of the casinos had that point in their terms and conditions that you are obliged to withdraw, using the same method for depositing.   So, here's my top 3.

 

1st place: Skrill (former Moneybookers) - accepted by probably 90% of the online casinos worldwide, no fees, reliable and secure, accepted as withdrawal method as well!

 

2nd place: Visa debit/credit card - accepted by all online casinos, relatively small fees, reliable and secure, accepted as a withdrawal method in the same time. A disadvantage for me is that withdrawals to this method last longer than withdrawals to e-wallets for example.

 

3rd place: Neteller - very popular way for both depositing and withdrawing, extremely fast cashouts, no fees, reliable and secure. A disadvantage is its relatively high fees for a cashout to your bank account for example.

Agree totally, definitely top three performers I this category

[sencize]

skrill is my number one   safe fast and transactions don't cost much

 

also neteller is not bad but its downside is that i cant withdraw money straight to my visa card

[Sup3rma17]

Skrill is my top pick because it's ultra safe, secure and I can transfer, send, receive or withdraw from this E wallet!

 

Credit Cards are my 2nd choice for it's versatile use everywhere! Mastercard to be specific!

Your right you can't beat moneybookers can you. I only wish they bought out an IPAD app...I'm surprised they haven't. That would be really useful for me

[szirtisas]

I always use the neteller because i had a net+ card to it so that is the fastest way to get my winnings, but some times i use skrill too.

One thing what i miss from the neteller is this a sms notifier, the skrill had it and it very usefull if you arent near to the computer.

[cocopop3011]

I've been having loads of freebies from Paysafe lately.

[Adebisi213]

I use different types of deposit methods to fund my online casino accounts. Just depends where my money is located really

 

The most convenient for me is to use Neteller, because withdrawals couldn't be anymore smoother. I have a Neteller prepaid card, so I can just cash out my winnings from an ATM in no time (4 euro fee included though). Sometimes I use Skrill for deposits and withdrawals, and paysafecard or iDEAL for deposits only.

[aemakgol]

I am using skrill in most cases, if casino did not accept skrill, then i use my VISA card.

[Toiletseat]

If the casino supports Ideal, I use it to deposit. Fast & easy.

If Ideal is not supported, I use Neteller. Withdrawing I always do through Neteller. As ValDes has allready mentioned, they charge high fees (7.50 per time) for cashout to your local bank account.

Yeah, i hear from friends neteller is nice, but they do no accept customers from my country

[bojkov]

My opinion the moneybookers is the best!

Hi Bajkabb

 

I also use Skrill! Why do you prefer it too?

[spoton]

Visa, Ecocard and skrill. As i live in Norway, its kind of limited which methods i can use. The banks got a gambling code block, which most the casinos targeting Scandinavian customers can get trough, but when it comes to those focusing at customers from other places i can't use it. Same with Skrill, allthough i like using it to cash out wins from free bonuses etc. Ecocard is pretty cool as alot of casinos take it, and i can fund my wallet with my card, but they got pretty hefty fees.

[ValDes]

... The banks got a gambling code block, which most the casinos targeting Scandinavian customers can get trough...

 

Really?! The banks allow you to deposit only in casinos, targeting at Scandinavian players? That's pretty wierd and even not fair, at least in my humble opinion. Can you give some more details, would be much appreciated.

In my country some banks don't allow us to use their issued credit card to gambling purposes, and a coming new Gambling law probably won't allow us to play at any gambling sites that don't purchase a license in the country and because of it is a very small market region, it doesn't make sense them to advertise or invest money here, more simply to leave this territory. Unfortunately, I imagine we face to a very negative future of gambling, but we will see what actually happens.

Just to answer the question. My favourite methods are Visa and Skrill (maybe Neteller). I use my Visa card only if I want to pay in to a familiar place where my player account currency is the same as my bank account currency. Most of the time there is no fee, the deposit instant, and the withdraw is less then 24h or 2days. I mostly use it on sports betting purposes.

 

I use Skrill every other occasions. If I want to move money between sites it is the best way.

You are right about the high withdrawal fees at Neteller, but there is a solution how it can be free and faster, though some maybe could not find it sympathic.

Yeah, I know precisely well what you are actually talking about. Bulgaria and Greece have already implemented their new gambling laws, according to which all online casinos, who do not purchase a license in the country are blocked from all internal ISPs! The result so far is a loooong list of restricted operators and a huuuuge pile of troubles for the ordinary online gamblers in both countries! It is more than obvious that everyone wants its tasty share of the pile, called online gambling, but why it should always be at the expense of the players?!

Yes, and I think people have every right to feel angry and think like 'If I worked hard and earned this money and paid the tax after it why couldnt I spend it for whatever I want?''

 

I guess we all know or at least suspect the answers for all of these questions.

Sorry for a bit late answer, but the law here states that banks can't process payments to merchants that has a certain gambling code. But some casinos that targets Norwegian customers has found a way to get past it. Like using ticketsurf, which doesent have a gambling code.

 

With a new government here they might change the laws though, as the old law was to make sure that all Norwegians who want to gamble will play at the Norwegian State owned company that offers lottery, sports betting, some slots in stores, and that will come up with a casino this or next month. The funny thing though is that the law doesen't only apply to online casinos. If a Norwegian goes to Las Vegas, buys a dinner inside one of the casinos, his card might get rejected so he has to run over to the ATM. lol
