Credit cards in the online casino

How does paying with a credit card at a casino on the internet work?

Paying with a credit card is becoming increasingly popular. Not only in the online casino, but also in web shops or other online gambling sites. In this article we briefly explain how this works.

Before you can pay with a credit card at a casino on the internet of course, you must first request this from your bank or credit card company. Having a credit card is often associated with annual fees. So always pay attention to that. If you want to pay once with a credit card, there is the possibility to purchase a so-called 3V Card, which you pay with, for example Ideal , Paysafecard or Paypal .

Once you have a credit card in your possession, you can pay with the information displayed on it in most online casinos. when paying, you will be asked to enter a number of things; the credit card number, the expiration date and the validation code. In some cases, an additional password is required, which you can obtain yourself via, for example, VISA or Mastercard. This is sometimes the case with credit cards from Rabobank and ING. This is to make online payment even safer.

Can you easily deposit money with a credit card?

A credit card offers many possibilities, including making a deposit in an online casino. That is very simple. You can click on a payment method on the deposit page itself, including with a credit card. The data must then be entered, such as the number of the credit card, the name of the cardholder and of course the expiration date. A CCV code will most likely also be requested. With some credit card providers it is also possible to add an additional password, this ensures more security.

Can I be paid later?

A credit card ensures that you can easily borrow a certain amount of money. You do not have to actually have the relevant amount in your bank account at the time of the deposit. Actually, the amount will be advanced by the credit card company. It is, as it were, a loan. At the end of the month, the amount will be debited from your bank account at once by the credit card provider, but of course you can also transfer the money yourself at an earlier time. Using the credit card does not automatically create a ridiculously high interest rate, usually it does not cost you a penny. Only when the money can not be returned or written off on time, then interest will be charged. Only play with money you can afford to lose .

How is the credit limit determined?

A credit card gives more freedom, it is easy to use and extremely convenient. But depositing unlimited money is of course not an option, the credit card company also needs security. Therefore, limits are established. A limit will be set by the credit card provider. The higher your income, the higher the limit can be. Nevertheless, a limit is also nice for the casino player, because you can never spend more than you can actually repay.

What types of credit cards are there?

Nowadays there are many different credit card providers, but only a few are actually accepted at the online casino. The best known credit cards are those of Visa, Mastercard and American Express. These credit cards can usually also be used in the casino. Some online casinos also accept credit cards from Discovery, Citibank and Chase. In addition, you also have special credit cards, such as the Visa Electron. This card can be seen as a kind of debit card, since the amount of money must also be directly in your bank account. There are also several credit cards on which users can deposit money, in order to then be able to spend that amount immediately.
