Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
how long does it take to get a card?
do they offer rush deliver? |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
Good job Stars.
They should have had this available even when Neteller was up and running. I'm just cautiously optimistic because I get the feeling the fees are going to be bad. |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
This almost seems to fall into the "too good to be true" category.

Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
I just signed up. Fees suck.
$2.95 monthly fee. 4% + .50 to load from a credit card. $2.50 to withdraw. Terms |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
I agree Nate.
Isn't this pretty much what the government is trying to crack-down on in the first place? Wouldn't they just go to Visa and say, "Stop accepting money-transactions that involve poker sites"?? I guess I'll be trying it in the near future as others share their positive experiences. But I sure won't be leaving much in my Visa-debit account due to the possibility that the funds would somehow get frozen due to my evil pokering. Seems like receiving a check in the mail might be less risky. I just don't understand how this will be a permanent solution since the UIGA is pretty much the government telling Mastercard, Visa and banks, "Don't do this." |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
This offers a fast way to withdraw funds. $4 ATM fee is better than $25 Fedex fee. It still charges way too much for deposits though.

Stars seemed to imply there were only transaction fees. If you are charged a fee regardless, this sucks. If not, it's not a bad option for some and depending on the max withdrawal may even prove useful. I'm most concerned with the ease of funding for fish, though. |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
Just signed up. Fees suck hard. Above me is the particulars fees they hit you with.
It's thru Paytrucard.com I talked on the phone with a rep. They consider Pokerstars withdrawal a load, so you'll get hit with 4% + $0.50. And then hit you with $4 at the ATM too. Monthly fee $3 too, woohoo. When signing up thru the pokerstars cashier, make sure your middle initial is in there, as paytru seemed to assign me a random one. They also added to my address an "apt 101" which I was able to edit in the paytru window. I signed up. 10-14 business days to get a card in the mail. I imagine things are going to be nutty this year with withdrawals, so I want as many options as I can have. (still in the middle of things with epassporte) But, I don't see this as a long term solution unless Stars picks up that withdrawal fee of 4%. |
Re: New Deposit Option on Pokerstars
I will probably stick to paper checks, but this seems like it will be good for the fish.
