If you're attempting to use Visa and MasterCard to fund you're casino account
you may be finding that your transactions are not going though.
The U.S. Government has begun to block Americans from using credit
cards to fund their online gambling entertainment. Is there a
solution? Of course! Below are several alternative casino banking
options to make it easier to get your funds to and from your online
casino, sportsbook, poker, or bingo accounts. As an added incentive
many online casinos also offer bonuses for deposits made using
alternative banking methods. These bonuses are usually in the
range of 10%-15% of your deposit. Although most casinos do offer
these alternative banking methods we've outlined a couple of casinos
for each alternative baking method. For more great online casinos

Wire Transfer
Wire Transfers work pretty much the same as as an ACH to transfer
funds from your bank account to the casino's account. However
with wire transfers you usually need to Fax or e-mail the casino
a form that will allow them to request a wire transfer on your
behalf. The casino makes a request to your bank and then you must
give your bank authorization to wire the money. In general this
type of fund transfer takes quite a bit longer as there is a longer
processing time involved to transfer the funds
