Maestro is a better online casino deposit option than a credit card

Once you have decided to try playing at an online casino and with the help of onlinecasino.ie you have decided which online casino and which casino games to start with you have yet another decision to make and that is how to deposit cash into your online casino account and while you are at it you should also consider how easy it is to withdraw your winnings which we hope you will have. Many people will simply use a credit card but that is not necessarily the best method; funding you online casino with Maestro or Laser is a better option. Credit card companies or the banks that issue them will invariably make a charge for depositing into an online casino whereas Maestro casino will not; the charge is often small (around 2%) but it can be avoided altogether by depositing with Maestro. In Ireland Maestro is not so popular as Laser but they are in effect the same thing and in fact most laser cards carry the Maestro symbol. You will almost certainly find that it is only the Irish based online casinos such as Paddy Power that list laser but they all offer the Maestro casino deposit option. To set up an account all you need to do is register your Maestro card once and unless you wish to change your deposit method  at a later date this will be the default card that appears in the cashier section of the online casino. To deposit simple enter an amount and answer the security question or enter a password. If you do not like the idea of giving your Maestro card number to a casino there are other deposit methods such as e-wallets which are listed in our casino deposit options page. Which deposit option to use is an important decision but it is not irreversible so if you change your mind later it is no problem.
