Funding your casino with Visa can be expensive

There are many ways to fund your online casino account in order to play your favourite casino games and hopefully make some money into the bargain but the most popular by some margin is the use of a credit card. There are also many credit cards but the majority are either Visa or MasterCard. It may seem strange but actually these companies do not issue cards as such as it is the banks that you are dealing with and it is the banks that determine the interest rates and charges. Funding you casino with Visa will result in a charge being made which is often as much as 2% of the transaction value for which there is no explanation other than the charge is applied to all gaming activities and it is always worth checking whether the online casino you are using is also making a charge as some of them do. We all recognise that if we make a cash withdrawal using a Visa card that we shall be charged interest from the day of the transaction and as your deposited money is immediately available in your account, the bank will also consider this to be a cash transaction and start charging interest immediately. These might seem like trivial amounts but it needs to be looked at in the context of do I have to pay this with other deposit methods and the answer to that is no. By all means fund your account with a Visa card or any other credit card for that matter but be aware of the charges and the other options available.
