As part of our ongoing objective of providing advice to new online casino games players to help them get the best from their online casino experience, we are going to return to the question of how best to fund playing their casino games. All the major online casinos offer a comprehensive range of casino deposit options covering most credit and debit cards as well as the most popular e-wallets such as Pay Pal. Online casino customers in Ireland who choose to play their casino games at the Ladbrokes or Paddy Power online casinos can even manage their online casino account using cash at one of their high street betting shops if they choose, but whilst that is an excellent deposit option in terms of security and privacy it is not necessarily always very convenient. Over recent years we have become used to using a credit card for all our internet transactions, but when it comes to funding an online casino account a credit card is by far the worst deposit option to choose. Quite apart from the fact that using a credit card for this is effectively gambling with borrowed money, the banks almost always apply a surcharge of up to 2% on any transactions involving gambling and will then charge interest from day one because it is considered to be a cash transaction equivalent to withdrawing cash at a cash machine. These two factors combined mean that using a credit card as an online casino deposit option ensures that you have already lost money before you have even started playing casino games. Some banks also apply a surcharge if you use a debit card as an online casino deposit option, so the best choice apart from cash is an e-wallet. Opening an e-wallet account is very easy and provides both security and perhaps more importantly privacy. Your bank will not know what you are using the account for and the online casino will have no access to your personal banking details, and there are no extra charges. Once you have an e-wallet account you can fund it in any way you choose and also use it for many other internet transactions. An e-wallet is undoubtedly the best online casino deposit option.
