prepaid credit cards - lucrative?

[gordongecko]

I have acquired a large number of international banking contacts in my years dealing with adult processing. I spoke with a friend the other day regarding prepaid gift cards, and more specificaly - ones that will work with gaming sites. If I could get these cards in flexible denominations, say 50, 75, 100, etc. what kinda juice would players be willing to pay? I figured since we are all players here, it would be best to ask this here. The great thing is the bankthat underwrites these debit cards can make sure these specific batches wont have gambling/high risk stuff blocked, since the players cant do a chargeback anyway.

You can deposit via money orders right? So I would pay no more than that costs.

What if the card was available instantly (virtual card)?

I recently spent $5.99 per $200 card to make a $600 pokerstars deposit (for their most recent bonus). Aside from bonus deposits, though, I wouldn't have any need for buying them. If I need more money in stars, I can usually just pay a friend of mine and he transfers it to me.

Um maybe a little more. But I don't play anymore so take that with a grain of salt.

LOL emon - well thanks for the input guys, I guess as funding gets easier and easier again this would end up being useless, I wish I would have put 2 and 2 together right after the uigea [censored].

Funding is getting easier and easier? With the exception of epassporte I cant get any poker site to cash me out. Can someone share some of these new and wonderful withdrawal methods everyone seems to know about but me?

Cheers

sammich- i've been getting checks from most poker sites these days... idk if im in the majority or not though. And I could see paying about 1-2% for gift cards but much more than that probably wouldn't be worthwhile.
