Deposit Options for Players Affected by the Safe Port Act

Many players from the USA are worried that they may not be able to deposit once the US has decided to restrict them from using the normal channels they’re used to when depositing. Although Neteller and many others have said that they are closely watching the government’s actions, they are STILL accepting deposits and transactions from ALL US players.

This is good news because Neteller is the most widely used form of depositing into the casinos, sports books, poker rooms and bingo halls. They also still transfer money back into your bank account in the USA and you can transfer money from your bank INTO Neteller. MasterCard and Visa, Paypal, Firepay and others have already been denying deposits into online gaming establishments for quite some time, but there are many companies still accepting transactions originating in the US.

Click2Pay uses a virtual visa in which you fund with your visa or MasterCard. Because they not only handle online gaming transactions strictly, they aren't generally blocked by US banks. Another alternative is Moneybookers which works about the same way. Although many casinos and sportsbooks aren't taking Moneybookers currently, there are many that do and this is always a good option as they are safe and secure.

A bank wire is also an option, and many players have found this way to be quite successful because most casinos don’t have themselves coded as such. If you have problems depositing and you are in the USA, don’t hesitate to email each gaming establishment and ask them for the alternatives or suggestions. Most deal with this problem daily and are more then willing to help.
