1. Why is it that when I deposit, the money goes through immediately, but when I withdraw, it takes awhile?

   It's frustrating when online casinos take a period of time to send you your winnings after you cashout, however this is done for your protection. They want to ensure that if someone makes an unauthorized withdrawal from your account, you have time to cancel it. Also, they may want to let their security department check your withdrawal, to protect against fraud. If you change your mind, or wish to re-deposit, you can always cancel a pending withdrawal and send the money straight back to your account.

2. Will I have to pay fees when I withdraw my winnings?

   Very rarely. Most online casinos do not charge you any fees to withdraw your winnings, however online casinos that use Cryptologic software may charge you a $1 nominal fee to process withdrawals. Some withdrawal methods are expensive for the online casino to process, and may attract fees (bank checks mailed to you, for example). If you use an Online Wallet like NETeller, you will almost never be hit with fees when you withdraw.

3. How can I transfer my winnings from an online casino to another online casino?

   Your best option is to use an Online Wallet, like NETeller. You can find information about Online Wallets in the Alternative Payment Methods news section.

4. I want to send my friend some of my winnings from an online casino via the cashier – is this possible?

   It is very rare that an online casino will allow you to do this. As online casinos give new players so much bonus money to gamble with, they need to protect themselves against players who might try to cheat the system. Your best option is to withdraw the money through an Alternative Payment Method and transfer the money to your friend that way.

5. If I use my credit card, what will show up on my credit card statement?

   Most online gaming companies use cashier systems with high level security mechanisms to protect your transactions. These cashier systems usually have non-descript names like Interpay Processing Ltd. or Ecash. To double-check what will appear on your credit card statement, you should ask online casino support before depositing.

6. What is the best deposit method?

   All deposit methods have their advantages. The most popular deposit methods are Credit Cards and NETeller – click here for a NETeller Review.

7. How safe is it to use my credit card at an online casino?

   All the online casinos reviewed at PokerNewsCasino use some of the most robust security measures available to protect your privacy. Firewalls and advanced encryption methods ensure that using your credit card at an online casino is probably safer than using it at your local department store.

8. How do I deposit money into an online casino to play for real money?

   Online casinos offer numerous deposit methods and, much more importantly, numerous methods to withdraw your winnings. Most online casino players deposit using their Credit Cards, however there are literally dozens of Alternative Payment Methods. Some of these Alternative Payment Methods have been reviewed by our writers – check out the reviews at Alternative Payment Methods.
