Default Options after Neteller?

So what are the options after neteller?

Will e-checks work or are banks expected to stop these as a part of the regulations?

What about Central Coin? Has anybody used this before and is it a viable alternative?


Anything else...??

Once neteller actually dies (note: it has not yet died. the sky has not fallen.), something else will come along.

Depositing via credit card was illegal for eons, but you could do that on PartyPoker, using a US credit card, right up until the day they closed up shop.

There will be some reasonable convenient way to deposit, only problem is it might be slightly different than the current ways.

I got a letter from Royal Vegas Poker on the Prima network, suggesting I use something called Click2Pay. I got the letter before this Neteller announcement too, if you want to read anything into that. I don't have a ton of faith in Prima, so I'm a bit skeptical, but it's worth looking into.



The Letter:

We have a wide variety of easy-to-use deposit methods to insure that you have a great time at the Royal Vegas Poker tables!

While one of these methods - FirePay has stopped processing deposits to Royal Vegas Poker on behalf of customers resident in the United States, we have many more deposit methods that you can use to continue playing with us.

These Deposit methods include: Click2Pay, PaySpark, Neteller, eCheck Moneybookers, your Credit Cards and many more deposit methods.

If you have not used Click2Pay in the past, we would very much like like to suggest that you convert to this payment option. We believe it to be the most suitable option for you.

With Click2Pay, you will be able to:


Create a single account
Deposit from virtually anywhere
Fund your account via Credit Card, ACH and Direct Debit
Ensure security via a personal code and password
Deposit small and large amounts

MAIN TAKEAWAY:

Bottom line is that Neteller is still around now, business as usual. Neteller may or may not be around in 270 days, but we also have 270 days for players, e-wallets, banks, etc. to think of and establish workarounds. In this forum alone, we have already thought of 5 different workarounds in the first week after the bill was passed. How long do you think it will take for us to think of the workarounds after the law is enforced?? Not very long if you ask me.


Important Note: Though it is good to brainstorm some of the workaround ideas now, we need to be careful to keep some of these workarounds to ourselves until after the law begins to be enforced. You never know if the US government may be snooping around in these forums.

I've used Central Coin successfully several times in the past, but haven't tried it in the last year.

There will be plenty of alternatives to Neteller, there already are. The problem with Neteller going away is the reputation it has as an above the board honest company.

Players will need to be careful when choosing the alternatives.

As for ways to fund ewallets? 900 numbers, phone cards...the list goes on

I don't think they said they were going away after 270 days. It depends on what the regulations are.
