Online casino deposit options and credit cards

By admin on 2011-12-30 10:03:43

There has been a great deal in the news recently regarding the British government’s intention to crack down on excessive charges relating to the use of debit and credit cards, particularly when booking travel arrangements. The prime target appears to be the low cost airlines, but as we know there is also a problem when it comes to using credit cards to make deposits at an online casino. We have never been supporters of using credit cards to fund playing casino games online, but we also object to some banks automatically charging extra to customers who use credit cards, and in some cases even debit cards, to make their online casino deposits. Clearly it is not a good idea to gamble with borrowed money, which is why we always advise against using credit cards to fund playing casino games, but we don’t understand what rights the banks have to decide that they will charge extra because a customer is gambling. Gambling at an online casino is after all a legal activity in Ireland and the UK. This situation does however give us the opportunity to point out the benefits of some of the other online casino deposit options. In Ireland, if you have access to a High Street shop belonging to Paddy Power or Ladbrokes, you do of course have the option of funding casino games with cash if you want to play your casino games at either of these two online casino sites, but for most of us, although this is a very secure option it is not very convenient. The best casino deposit option by far is the e-wallet, which you can effectively use as an alternative bank account to fund your casino games, or of course any other internet transactions you may wish to make. Both Pay Pal and Neteller are accepted by most online casinos as a valid deposit option, and once you have set up an e-wallet account you can make payments into your account by whatever means you choose, including debit or credit cards, Your bank will not however have access to your e-wallet transactions, nor indeed will your selected online casino have access to your bank details.
