One more deposit option for US customers

**winbig** · 1st December 2006, 10:57 PM

I am happy to say that Netspend (Visa) gift cards WILL work to fund a Neteller account. I just successfully made a deposit into mine without problem.

I'm also assuming that the pre-paid (reloadable) Netspend cards will continue to work also.

If I remember right, the reloadable cards have a limit of either $5000 or $10000, with a reload fee of ~$5.00.

You can either pay $1 per transaction, or $9.95/mo for unlimited.

You can check out the FAQ at https://www.netspend.com/visa/faq.m

I love it! They also have a direct deposit option (don't have to put your whole pay amount in, just specify how much) and that posts as soon as it is available, and no fee for reloading that way.

and it works as a DIRECT method too..not just funding an e-wallet

Holy cow! Those fees would hurt! NETeller truly has me spoiled. But it's good to know there are other options out there. We may be needing them soon. However, there are no NETSpend reload centers in my area.

When I signed up online, they mailed me my Visa card, which is referred to as "all access Visa". So if you happened to have seen any of these at your local grocery store, that could be your reload option. It has worked directly as using it as just plain Visa/credit card, too (hope I don't jinx anything by saying that!!) And don't forget the direct deposit is free (you can just elect to have something like $50 out of your pay put on it).

I use this as my preferred way of depositing. Actually it is the only way I deposit to online casinos now. I closed out firepay, click2pay and the citidel direct deposit option so I really have no other way of depositing. They are a godsend due to the fact that I must physically go somewhere and add money (cash) to the card. This slows things down for me; I can't get in as much trouble as I could when I was using electronic debits to my checking accounts.

I wish I knew what is the best way to cashout though. Will the casino's refund to the card?

Nope. You can't get a withdraw via any credit/debit card if you live in the US. You're better off keeping a Neteller account and getting their debit card.
