List of eWallets for Canadians

[Kasrielle]

Ok - signed up for MB but my Mastercard (Capital One) won't work for gaming sites. Which of your are using a CC for MB, and which Canadian CCs work? (for deposit)

Kasrielle,

CIBC Visas, TD Visas, Citibank Mastercards, and PC Mastercards work for deposits at gambling sites. Although a buddy of mine couldn't register his PC Mastercard for a Click2Pay account.

All RBC Visa cards and MBNA Mastercards do NOT allow deposits on gambling sites. I guess we can add CapitalOne cards to this list as well.

I applied for a TD Visa online and got the card in the mail 5 business days later. I checked CIBC's website and they take 2-3 weeks to process applications, just something to keep in mind if time is a factor for you. Hope this helps.

Sweet! Hopefully ECash Direct (Interpoker, SunPoker, etc.) adds moneybookers in the near future too. Then I'll be completely satisfied.

This is GREAT news. Now I won't sweat it if I can't get that whole EPP CC confirmation working, as any site I play is covered by either MB or C2P, if not both.

This might be a stupid question, but can anyone who is using MoneyBookers, direct me on how to deposit to my poker account from my MB account. I have tried it a few times, and each time it takes me back to the MB account page. I am a bit confused. Any help would be appreciated.

When you try to deposit to your poker account using MB, your poker site will put you through to your MB account where you will have to verify the transaction by entering your MB e-mail address and your MB password. Once you do, you will get a confirmation message that the transaction has been completed and how much you deposited. Make sure the e-mail address registered with your poker site matches that of your MB account.

Also, although this is a little more onerous than NT, I believe it is more secure. I know there were people that complained that NT didn't use this sort of set-up, because the way it was with them, the poker site would be receiving all of your secure information.

One other thing to watch out for...once when I paid by MB, the Turing number didn't display properly (I got a broken image), and I wasn't able to enter it. I just entered 6 numbers, and when it failed, I just had to reenter my MB login info, password, and the Turing number again...the second time, the Turing number showed up fine.

Hey guys, I need to get money off of full tilt, and they offered to send me a cheque, but I was looking for something faster than going through their verification process of scanning and emailing the required documents and then waiting. I was going to sign up for a click2pay account and cash out through there, but someone said the cheque they mail you is in euros anyways. Would you guys recommend using an ewallet to move the money from FTP-&gt;Ewallet-&gt;Party EFT? How hard of a process is it and how long would it take? Keep in mind I haven't signed up for a new ewallet yet.

Alright so my bank sucks, doesn't have a SWIFT code, and requires me to use Scotia Banks SWIFT code, then they issue a bank draft to my bank.

Obviously a lot of hassle which I don't want to go through. I'm an affiliate too so I make frequent withdrawals.

So I figure I will sign up with a new bank. I won't be using it for internet banking or anything like that - the one I am with has hot rates so I stick with them. But it'll be to accept withdrawals from moneybookers et al, then just use my debit card to withdraw. I live downtown Kingston and have most banks at my disposal(Bank of Montreal, CIBC, Scotia, TD etc) so any recommendations would be appreciated.

C2P &amp; MB deposit/withdrawal question:
Is there a difference between MB's international bank transfer and C2P's wire transfer? Is MB's bank transfer an EFT?
