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 recently 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 casinos and 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 casinos and 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.
We will stress here, CHECK THEM OUT. Ask your friends.
Talk to the casinos 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.
