Due to the legislation from October 2006 and to be more exact the gambling bill (UIEGA) that was passed back then, many online gambling websites (this includes online casinos, poker rooms and sports books) are no longer accepting players from United States to gamble real money online. Recently some e-wallet companies have also stopped being a deposit method for this. So payment methods like Moneybookers, Firepay, Citadel, MyCitadel and Neteller are currently no longer accepting any new customers from United States. However in the same time, there are still a decent number of 3rd party online deposit methods that are still available for US residents out there.
Below you are going to find a list with the USA deposit methods that are still available for the USA residents. You can freely use these methods with absolutely no problem.
Before you will actually make a deposit to an online casino or online poker room, you must be aware that simply because that payment method is available does not necessary means that the transaction will be accepted by the online gambling website. This means that in case you plan to make a deposit and you select a certain payment method, it’s always best that you contact the online casino where you want to make the payment, before you will actually do it. This way you can be sure that the transaction will be cleared with absolutely no problems.
EwalletXpress – this is a payment options that has been around for a long time and is not going anywhere. The only change that was made was that the currency is now the Canadian Dollar, so all the accounts must be opened in that currency and the money deposited will get automatically converted.
UseMyWallet – is a sister website of the EcoCard and the great thing about it is that they are still accepting new customers from United States.
American Express – is a credit card that is still accepted by some online casinos out there.
Prepaid Debit Cards – right now there are many prepaid debit cards that are available for US residents and that can be used to make payments to the online gambling websites.
900Pay – This online payment method is only available to US players.
Credit Cards – While there are still some online gambling websites out there that still accept credit cards from players from United States, sometimes you can get your transaction declined. This is why we suggest that the moment you have money on your credit card and decide to use it for deposit, you must always have a plan B, which means that you will have to use those credit cards to fund a ewallet account, and afterwards you will be able to make the deposit.
Click2pay – Right now there are many online gambling websites that accept deposits from Click2Pay from US residents, however there is a problem since you will be able to use this payment method only if you are already a member, since they are no longer accepting any new clients from US.
