Neteller is our preferred payment method. Of course, there are other payment methods as well, but we highly recommend using Neteller for your online payments. Moreover, for the transfer of funds to an online Neteller Casino as well. So, if we already have a position on what to do with Neteller (use it!), then why construct a website with so much information about Neteller and how it works? Well, we want you to see why you should prefer Neteller above other online payment methods, and what makes Neteller truly unique in its use. Not only for online casinos, but also for purchasing goods and services at other online merchants. We start this page with the unique features of Neteller. Afterwards, we compare Neteller to a) a credit card) b) a bank transfer and c) prepaid cards. We finish with an overview of some basic instructions and precautions.
Unique features of Neteller
In comparison with all other payment methods that are specifically developed for online purposes; Neteller is one of the few payment methods that offers an online eWallet. An eWallet, as already mentioned, is a way to store money online. This means storage of online funds, not on a bank account. The storage can be accessed any time and used for paying online for goods and services, or for the transfer of funds to an account at an online casino. Neteller is unique in offering such a reliable and trustworthy service.
Neteller vs. Credit Card
When one compares the use of Neteller with the use of an credit card for online payments, one gets to conclude that there are many safety hazards in using an credit card. Let us find out why. Neteller establishes a direct connection with the merchant that allows payments via this method. This means that, once you have opened a Neteller account, you have to transfer money to this account and use the eWallet for payments. However, with a credit card, you have to submit and enter many personal details, which can be used by people for identity theft and credit card fraud. This problem is non-existent when you use Neteller for making payments online. Due to the high security and the measures taken to prevent hackers from stealing personal details, Neteller is one of the safest and more reliable online payment options.
Neteller vs. Bank Transfer
A bank transfer is generally a secure method to transfer money from one person to another or from a person’s bank account to a bank account of a company or merchant. This is how we do business in the Western world and it works perfectly well. However, when you want to purchase online goods or services, it is necessary to pay instantly. This prevents you from having to wait until the payment is finalised and the checkout is completed. You want to make use of your casino account right away, isn’t it? Now, there is the problem of a bank transfer. An (international) bank transfer can take days or even weeks. If you want to make use of the services of an online casino straightaway, then we would recommend Neteller. The money is credited to your account at once, without you having to wait for days.
Neteller vs. Prepaid Cards
It is also possible to make use of prepaid cards, like Ukash or Paysafecard. A prepaid card does exactly what you expect it to: you buy a card online or in a normal shop and afterwards you can use this card to transfer funds to a bank account (or an account at an online casino). It is usually safe and allows you to transfer money within seconds. However, there is a minor problem: you have to make a transaction twice. First, you need to buy a card or code and second, you need to enter the code at the online merchant’s checkout page. No problem, but it limits your opportunities and the speed by which you transfer funds. Next, it becomes annoying if you want to use, let us say, only half of the balance on the card. You receive a new code, which you have to write down somewhere (read: lose easily).
Basic Instructions And Precautions
Registering for an account is easy. Just visit the website of Neteller, start the sign-up process and enter all required personal details. It is easy. Next, you select a method to transfer funds to your Neteller eWallet. This could take a while, but you could for example use a credit card or bank transfer to credit your eWallet. Once finished, the eWallet is there to use for online payments and online transfers to online casinos. Depositing money via Neteller is very easy.
