Cant americans use their VISA to deposit at gambling sites?
On most occassions no, but some webwallets accept visa. greek39
But mastercard allows it?
Some do some don’t I think it all depends on the credit card company and their policies regarding online gambling.
This one is a case by case scenario.
I can’t speak for all casino groups, but sometimes they get through and sometimes they don’t. The best thing to do is contact each group and ask if they have special policies or know of any reasons why a US VISA couldn’t make a purchase through their casino.
I agree it is definitely a case by case – sometimes i think it is bordering on being completely random!! LOL
We have many players using Visa and Mastercard successfully (some players make mulitple deposits of $5 using CC cards which i find quite strange – but there are also many that cant use their cards at all!! Prepaid Visas seem to be very successful and becoming more popular.
It depends on the credit card company and how vigilent they are in monitoring credit cards for the gambling code. If they detect it they are not supposed to allow the deposit. Of course some casinos miscode the product, but if they are caught doing this the fine can be significant and they may lose thier merchant account.
Those who live in a police state such as Americans and Canadians face this problem.
