What is the best online casino deposit option for you

Playing casino games at an online casino is becoming an extremely popular pastime in Ireland and throughout the world, and we are all using the internet more and more in our daily lives. Whether we are purchasing goods online or paying money into an online casino account, we need to decide the best and most secure way to carry out the transaction. Most people would argue that buying goods or services online is best done using a credit card, particularly if we are spending more than £100, because of the insurance element of credit card transactions should the product be unsatisfactory. Clearly all the major online casino operators will accept most credit cards as a deposit option, but is this the best way to fund our online casino games. Quite apart from the fact that using a credit card to fund online gambling is effectively playing with borrowed money, there are also additional costs incurred by using a credit card. Most banks, for reasons best known to themselves,  automatically charge extra for any transaction associated with gambling, and they will also start to charge interest on the money from day 1, because it is considered to be a cash transaction. If you want to avoid starting all your online casino games sessions at a loss, find another deposit option. In Ireland, both Ladbrokes and Paddy Power allow their online casino customers to fund their accounts using cash at any of their betting shops, and this clearly has obvious advantages for people with easy access to one of their shops. For the rest of us a Debit card is a possible solution, but an e-wallet is even better. Again most online casinos will accept payments through Pay Pal or Neteller, and both provide a secure deposit option with no added charges. Another advantage of using an e-wallet as a deposit option is the privacy it provides. Your bank will not know what you are using your e-wallet account for, and the online casino operator will not have access to your personal financial details. How you choose to fund your e-wallet is of course your own affair, but think twice before gambling on a credit card.
