Online Casino Banking Options
Most if not all online casinos offer a variety of secure and confidential methods for depositing money into your online casino account. We've listed the most popular online casino payment options and give an short description of each.
Credit Cards
The most popular online casino payment method is the good ol' credit card. Just about every casino out there accepts Visa and Master cards. There are a few drawbacks to using a credit and they are:
- Some banks don't allow their card holders to make purchases online if those purchases are related to online gambling. Each transaction has a unique identifier when process which tells the bank exactly what kind of transaction is being processed.
- In addition, some credit card companies themselves place restrictions on the amount of money you can into and withdraw from an online casino.
For the reasons above and for even more security on your personal and finacial details, we suggest that you arrange an alternative method for handling your online transactions, especially those relating to online gambling. An added benifit when doing this for online casinos is that you will actually be rewarded for using an alternative online casino payment option.
Alternative Banking Method 1: NETeller
NETeller is an online payment transfer service where you can deposit money into your account and then use it to make online purchases. NETeller also uses 3 tier security making your accounts imposible to be breached by intruders. NETeller never shares your personal or financial details with any other sites, not even when you make a transaction. You only provide your NETeller account details when you purchase online. You can fund your NETeller account by Credit Card, Wire Transfer, EFT/ACH or InstaCash.
NETeller is very renouned in the online gaming industry and is probably the most secure and reliable payment methods available to us. NETeller deposits into an online casino are instant and your withdraws from an online casino are within 24 hours.
Directors Quote:
"I have personally been a NETeller member for more than 4 years now. I have never had any security breach on my account. No online casino site, online poker site, online bingo site nor any online sports betting site has turned me away. I've deposited money in all of them and have received my withdrawals from them without any questions or hang ups, within 24 hours. I will always give my stamp of approval to anyone who enquires about NETeller."
