Using Credit Cards for online gambling is becoming more difficult due to legal restrictions for residents of certain countries & specific Card Scheme rules.
In general :
1. Mastercard customers are not able to withdraw winnings back to your MasterCard. (ie you can deposit funds but need to use an alternative
withdrawal method). Exception: Some UK issued Mastercards will still allow both deposits and withdrawals to/from gambling accounts.
2. Visa customers with cards issued in Australia, China, Guam, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Malaysia, NZ, South Korea & USA often can't
withdraw funds back to their cards.
3. Where you are allowed to withdraw back to a credit card often you can only withdraw an amount up to or equal to that you deposited with
that credit card (so any other funds in your account - winnings - can only be withdrawn via an alternative payment method).
4. Credit card deposits usually incur a fee of 1.5-3% of the deposit amount - and may even be charged at 'cash advance' credit rates
For UK players in particular, using Debit Cards for online gambling is often the quickest way of depositing funds - and is generally free of deposit and withdrawal fees. If you are at all concerned about internet security and use of either credit or debit cards use an e-wallet or pre-payment card (below)
E-WALLETS FOR SECURE ONLINE GAMBLING PAYMENTS
There are a growing number of online e-wallets, virtual accounts or money transfer options available to deposit
and withdraw betting funds - the most popular of which are NETeller, Moneybookers and FirePay.
In general these work by you depositing funds (from direct bank transfer, debit or credit cards) into a personal 'virtual' account from which you can then pay anyone - and often in any currency. These systems in general are secure, fast and cheap. Click on the logo of the particular service provider to find out details about their offering.
