E-Wallets

How to Deposit With E-Wallets

Since there are many different e-wallets, the exact process of how to make a deposit at an online casino can vary slightly. Overall, most of them are relatively similar and are fundamentally used in the same way. First, you need to log into your e-wallet and connect a payment method to it, such as a credit card or your bank account. Once this is done, you load your e-wallet with funds that can, later on, be used to deposit at an online casino.

If you have enough funds available in your e-wallet, you can head straight to the cashier of the casino and select the wallet you would like to use for a deposit. In the next step, you enter the deposit amount and the email address that is connected to your e-wallet account. After confirming this information, you will be redirected to your wallet, where you have to log in with your credentials. Here, you might be able to select whether you want to make the transaction using existing funds from your balance or (if the option is available) charge your connected payment card directly. Then you only have to confirm the payment, and you will be redirected back to the online casino. By that time, your newly deposited funds should already be available in your casino account.

How to Withdraw to E-Wallets

The quick and easy withdrawals that are possible with e-wallets are one of the biggest reasons why many veteran casino players are choosing this payment method. You can simply visit the cashier and select your e-wallet for cashing out. It is worth noting, however, that you usually have to send the money back to the e-wallet that was used for your previous deposit – but this means that it will already be saved under your available withdrawal options. Select the e-wallet and specify the amount you would like to withdraw; then confirm the transaction. 

Once the payments department of the casino has processed your request, the funds will become available almost instantly in your e-wallet. Some online casinos use fully automated solutions where this process doesn’t take longer than a couple of minutes. Please keep in mind that a handful of transactions usually have to be approved manually before this process takes place. Therefore, it can take between 24 and 72 hours. If it is taking longer than that, we recommend contacting the casino and inquiring about the status of your withdrawal.

How to Verify Your E-Wallet Account

At quite a lot of casinos, you won’t be asked to verify the ownership of your e-wallet because the email connected to your e-wallet will often be the same as the email you used to sign up at the casino. But, in some cases, you might be asked to provide some proof of ownership, in which case you can simply send them a screenshot from your wallet.

The casino will ask to be able to see your name and possibly the email connected to the e-wallet, as well as the fact that you’re logged in to your account. Usually, sending a screenshot of the account profile page of the e-wallet is enough to satisfy these requirements. 

Limits and Fees

Due to the variety of e-wallets and online casinos out there, there is no yes or no answer to the question of whether there are any fees collected for your transactions. Usually, e-wallets do not charge any fees for sending or receiving transactions. However, some out there might charge a small amount for you to send money back from your e-wallet to your bank account. We recommend reading up on this type of information before choosing what type of e-wallet you would like to use.

The situation is similar when it comes to online casinos themselves. Some offer free deposits and withdrawals, while at other casinos, only deposits are free of charge. The bad news is that quite a few operators do charge for e-wallet transactions at one point or another. This can be as high as a total of 5% of your deposit or withdrawal, so do check this in advance. But there are still plenty of online casinos available offering this kind of service for free. It is always a good idea to check the rates for deposits and withdrawals before signing up at a new site.  

E-Wallet Bonus at Online Casinos

When it comes to welcome offers and deposit bonuses, e-wallets can be a bit tricky. Since online casinos have to pay relatively high transaction fees compared to other payment methods, they tend to exclude some or all of their bonus offers from deposits with Neteller, Skrill, or other e-wallets. This is not always the case and there are still a lot of sites available with lucrative bonus offers and free spins for this type of deposit method as well. 

So, before you partake in a bonus, make sure to read the terms to make sure that an e-wallet deposit will trigger the bonus you want.
