Money Security for U.S. Gamblers

 

Many online gamblers, especially those in the United States, are concerned about the reliability of transferring money to and receiving payment from internet casino sites. Since the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act was passed in 2006 there has been a considerable decline of U.S. gamblers as well as companies to handle payment transactions.

Some well known companies left the market altogether, affecting many investors and many pocketbooks. Some of these companies include Neteller, ePassporte and CLICK2PAY. Credit card companies have also taken measures to prevent online gambling payments.

This leaves American gamblers in a tight spot, with few options and fewer security guarantees. Some online casinos won’t even allow U.S. gamblers to join. There are just too many risks and difficulties. As a result, the percentage of U.S. online poker players has dropped 28% over the last three years.
