I know they have a refferal bonus set up with $50 for the person doing the refferal and $25 for the person singing up. Both clear at 10x. Any kickback is nice. PM me with offers.

Question:

There are a lot of casino sites out there with bonuses that I can get in EUROs. Are US players eligible for these signups and how do you get around the Neteller fee to convert from USD to EUR?

Terms and conditions vary from site to site with regards to whether or not you cAn get bonuses in Euros. At this point if you have a US $ Neteller, it probably isn't wirth doing bonuses in Euros, unless the bonus is quite large, as conversion fees will eat your profits.

Doing bonuses in pounds, when allowed, is a great p[olicy, however. Although some sites have smaller pounds bonuses, and others do not allow pounds accounts for non-Brits.

I'm unsure of any great way to get around conversion fees.

"At this point if you have a US $ Neteller, it probably isn't wirth doing bonuses in Euros, unless the bonus is quite large, as conversion fees will eat your profits."

it's my understanding that the conversion fee is a % and not a fixed cost. assuming that is true it doesn't really make a difference how big the bonus is, it's more about whether or not euros are worth X% more than USD where X is the conversion fee. 1 USD ~= 1.25 EUR so it's probably worth it but do some research. also realize you're going to get dinged twice..

It's my understanding that the fee is 2.9% or so of the amount converted, yes. But the reason it wouldn't be worth it at some exchange rate is because I'm assuming the bonus is the same number at both, ie $100 or 100 euros.

So when the bonus itself is only worth $27 more for euros, that 2.9% each way hurts more than when it is $85 more (for pounds).

Actually to be honest I though the exchange rate was more like $1.13. At $1.27, it's worth it to do euros, if pounds aren't an option and euros are (and if the bonus is +EV, obviously).

EDIT: re-reading you post it appears that's what you said. I meant bonus size in terms of what % the bonus is. The conversion fees are relarively higher on a 25% bonus than a 200% bonus.

I did a few of these referral bonuses a while back before my site was set up. The bad part about them is they exclude all the good games, so I ended up clearing it on 3 card poker (I had 2 of them for a total of $100) and I busted. I guess it could have gone the other way too, but BJ and roulette are excluded from the RAF bonuses for both the referee and referrer portions of the bonus. It is bad for the referee especially if they are a newbie because they grind out the $100 bonus with BJ, but then have to find another game for the 6X WR on the referral portion before they can cash out any of it.

Always do casinos in Euros/Pounds Sterling if possible. It is always +EV to do so if the WR and T&C do not change.
