Online casino
payments are something of a hot topic at the moment, especially in the UK. New
regulations are about to be unveiled outlawing credit card deposits. The powers
that be clearly dont thing that the industry is beset by enough red tape
already. While this doesnt exactly sound the death knell of the iGaming
industry, operators will now be relying more on alternative methods such as
e-wallets and specialist online transaction services. Heres a run-down of
the most popular ones.
PayPal
This is the grand-daddy of online
transaction services and has been with us since the late 1990s. As one of the
largest payment processor in the world, PayPal allows you to send and receive
money via a safe and secure web-based account. You just provide your name,
password and a debit/credit card. Theres absolutely no requirement to
provide personal/financial information which therefore makes for faster
payments. Whats more, deposits are usually processed far quicker with
PayPal
casinos than via some of the other services mentioned here.
Neteller
Neteller is an
e-money transfer service established in 1999. Widely used by online casino
gamers, it has grown to become one of the most trusted payment platforms in the
business. With convenience firmly in mind, Neteller enables users to securely
send and receive funds instantly. After registration, the user merely credits
his/her account through either a debit or credit card. A small transaction fee
is the only downside, although this isnt always applied.
Skrill
Like Neteller,
Skrill has also built a solid reputation for itself in the world of online
gambling. Its also widely available and can be used to make deposits in
40 countries. Account setup and registration, as with most
e-wallet services is relatively painless all
thats needed is a name (always helpful), a password, a memorable security
question and valid photo ID. Once this is out of the way, funds can then be
transferred safely and without extra hassle.
Trustly
Trustly is a relative newcomer
having launched in 2008. However, in the past decade or so since then, the
service has expanded to more than 20 European countries including the United
Kingdom. To use the service, its usually a case of selecting it as your
preferred payment option. Assuming youve completed the registration
process and then confirmed a particular transaction, your funds will be
available to spend. Trustly also works even if your bank isnt listed as a
partner. Bear in mind though, that transactions will likely take a bit longer.
Zimpler
Zimpler has a slightly different MO to
the other options mentioned here. But its no less secure. The service
allows users to store a collection of payment methods in a virtual account,
thus affording easy, convenient access. The only thing required to register is
a mobile number. Once inputted, an SMS text message is sent your mobile with a
verification code. After your desired transaction amount has been entered as
well as the code, your payment is then processed.
Remember to always
play at a casino with a license. Check for a
