Today's websites offer many different ways to pay for goods and services. However, the type of methods accepted varies from one website to the next.
Here are three of the most convenient payment processing platforms for bettors that are commonly accepted at online sports betting sites, casinos, dedicated poker sites, and other licensed real money gambling sites, like bingo & lottery websites.
What are the three most secure, convenient, and reliable online payment solutions for bettors?
It's hard to narrow it down to just three of the most secure, reliable and convenient online payment options because there are so many trusted brands to choose from.
The type of method you choose to use should be carefully considered. Think about which method would be most suitable for you at your favourite horse racing betting site, and then read the reviews or check out its pros and cons before using it.
The main three types of payment platforms for bettors today are the following:
- Credit & debit cards
- Digital wallets (aka electronic wallets, e-wallets, or web wallets)
- Direct bank transfers
It's also possible to deposit with prepaid voucher cards, but this option can only be used to deposit. Credit & debit cards, digital wallets, or direct bank transfers can be used for deposits AND withdrawals. These are the most convenient payment platforms for online bettors.
Examples of the most trusted brands for online bettors today in various parts of the world are Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Neteller, Skrill, Paysadecard, POLi, Interac, MuchBetter, Trustly, Jeton, Payz, Neosurf, and AstroPay, to name just a few.
Some people find that topping up their betting account and then cashing out their winnings with their Visa credit or debit card is the better option, whereas other players prefer to do so directly to and from their bank account or from their digital wallet account. Each person is different.
Will I get charged for topping up my online betting account?
A betting site like Unibet, for example, will never charge you for depositing or withdrawing. However, the online payment platform may charge a small fee.
In other words, it's best to check with your preferred payment processing company if they are going to charge you for depositing or withdrawing at a licensed betting site before using that method. If there is a charge, in most cases, it's a tiny transaction processing fee that's hardly noticeable.
How old do I have to be to deposit at online sports betting sites?
The legal minimum age to deposit in Australia at today's best sports betting sites is 18. However, if you travel around the world, you will find that the minimum age to place sports bets at licensed online bookmakers and play games for real money at licensed online casinos might be 19 or 21.
In Ontario, British Columbia, and other Canadian provinces where it's legal to place bets at licensed sports betting sites, the minimum age to sign up is 19, and in Michigan, Delaware, New Jersey, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and other US states where online casino gambling is legally permitted, it's 19.
What's the minimum amount I can deposit at an online sports betting site?
The minimum amount you can deposit at a licensed online sports betting site can be as little as AU$10 or AU$20 (or equivalent currency value). It all depends on which site you sign up to and which online payment method you decide to use.
For example, you may find that the minimum deposit amount when using certain payment methods, such as credit cards or bank transfers, is AU$50, AU$60, or AU$100. This kind of information can always be found in the cashier/banking section at your chosen betting site.
