Sportsbook Credit Cards:
Online sportsbooks taking credit card deposit
It's no secret that in
the USA the credit cards are the preferred payment method
and it's only natural that bettors will be looking to use
credit card to deposit at the online sportsbooks. But as
many of you have found out already, finding a sportsbook
taking credit card deposits could be overwhelming. There are
many reasons why it's so difficult for the online
sportsbooks to allow credit card payments from players in
the U.S., but today we will focus not on the problem but on
the solution, i.e. which sportsbook accepts credit cards,
not only from USA but all over the world.
Right now,
5Dimes is the leading
sportsbook that takes credit card payments. According to the
latest information, this sports betting website has secured
a pretty stable and reliable processor for credit car
dpayments. The bad news is that VISA is currently the only
accepted credit card by this online sportsbook. According to
information posted on their website, residents of a handful
of states are restricted from using this VISA processor and
the transaction limits are set relatively low at only $250
per deposit. The betting site also has a Mastercard/Visa
processor, but according to many of the sports betting
forums, the rate of success using that one is quite low. On
the bright side - there are no fees associated with using
credit card to fund your player's account.
Another option is
Bookmaker, which has
apparently set the maximum credit card deposit pretty high -
at $2,000 daily, as posted on their site. Visa is again the
only available option here. Reading further at Bookmaker.eu,
we find out that if your credit cards are not directly
accepted, one can use the Western Union website to deposit,
where you can use any credit card you want, or at least any
of the major 3 card issuers. Of course an array of e-wallets
are also available to handle your deposits. E-wallets work
much like the way they sound. It's an internet wallet
account, which you can fund using credit/debit card or a
bank account and then use the wallet account itself to
deposit money at the sportsbook.
And, of course, let's
not forget
Intertops. This online
bookmaker is claiming that it allows deposits via any of the
4 major credit cards (yes, even Diners Club). The catch is
that new players are restricted to just $250 per day, which
unfortunately limits the bonus money you can take advantage
of as a new customer. But once a credit card authorization
form is received by the sportsbook - according to them you
can take advantage of the $500 per transaction limit, which
is quite high these days.
As you can see the
options are not as many as one would believe. The online
gambling industry is certainly going through some changes
and payment methods are the most affected aspect of these
changes. Note, the information provided is for research
purposes only and has been compiled from the sportsbooks
websites themselves. We cannot guarantee that it would
remain true at the time you visit our website, since the
betting companies tend to change these options constantly. |
