Best e-wallet for micro limit Canadian?

[Bob Ronson]

Hi,

I've read the e-wallets for Canadians thread, but I'm still not sure what the best option is for me. I'm a small stakes player (I would deposit or withdraw $100-200 at a time), and noticed that for Moneybookers, to transfer money from my bank account would cost around $42. Moneybookers cannot use my credit card, so it's obviously not worth it for me to xfer $200 at the current wire transfer rates. What would you suggest?

At PokerStars I simply use a credit card to deposit and withdraw by cheque. I don't think there's a cheaper way for Canadians to do small transactions with PS.

Your post would've fit nicely in the eWallet thread.

My suggestion - pick a promo to do at PokerSavvy, deposit to the poker room with your CC. When you're finished the promo, cash your Savvy points out to Moneybookers. You can then make a small deposit at that site with MB, and withdraw whatever you like back into MB...you're good to go!

Yup, Neteller EFTs were good for small deposits since they were basically free. Same with small withdrawals. But they're gone so... I'm guessing your bank is RB because of the high $42 fee for a bank wire? Do you deposit and withdraw $100-200 small amounts only?

You know, you should probably move this to the Canadian e-wallets thread and get more replies there.

a combination of instadebit/moneybookers/party-eft will do you good.
