PaySafeCard Online Casinos

The following casinos, sports books and poker sites will all allow you to use PaySafeCard.

• Bet Victor
• 32Red
• PokerStars
• BWIN
• Coral

There are many other places that accept PaySafeCard as well. The notion that this card is incredibly rare and not accepted anywhere is simply not true. You can use it for everything from gaming points on League of Legends (it is accepted as a payment method by Riot Games) to games on the PlayStation Network. It is also accepted as a payment method on both the WorldPay and the Secure Trading networks, both of which can be used for many different things.

So, on the one hand it is somewhat exclusive to the gaming and gambling industries because this is where it is most popular, but on the other hand its inclusion on those major payment networks means you can use it pretty much everywhere else.

How to Buy a PaySafeCard

There are more than 600,000 outlets that sell PaySafeCard cards, the majority of which are in the United Kingdom. You can purchase set amounts of money up to £100, but if you use PayPoint to make the purchase then you can extend this to £200. If you need more money don’t worry as you can just buy more cards.

You will also be given a PaySafeCard account where you can store details of your PaySafeCard PIN numbers.

How to Deposit into an Online Casino Using a PaySafeCard

To deposit into an online casino using PaySafeCard you just need to find the PaySafeCard option, select it and then enter the code when prompted. It will immediately transfer the same amount of money to your gambling account. However, you can not use multiple cards in one transaction and if you have many PIN numbers then you will need to make additional deposits.

This can be time consuming and it’s a bit of a sore subject for gamblers, but unless you have stacks of PINs to use then it shouldn’t be a huge problem.

Can You Withdraw Using a PaySafeCard?

Contrary to what you might think, it is possible to withdraw using PaySafeCard. You will need a PaySafeCard account though and you will also need to be using an online casino that facilitates such transactions.

Luckily, it’s very easy to create a PaySafeCard account and it won’t cost you anything.

Other Ways to Use PaySafeCard

How to Use PaySafeCard to Deposit into Neteller and Skrill

You will need a Neteller/Skrill account to perform the following steps, so make sure you have this first and if you can, verify it as well. It will make life easier. You will also need a PaySafeCard voucher, details of which we have provided above.

1. Choose “PaySafeCard” from the “Money” section of your Neteller account.
2. Choose the currency of your PaySafeCard voucher and input the amount that you wish to transfer into your Neteller account.
3. Check the amount on screen and confirm by pressing “Deposit Now”.
4. A third-party processing screen will launch asking for a 16 digit code.
5. Input the code on the PaySafeCard voucher.

PaySafeCard Fees

This is one of the downsides of the PaySafeCard. Prepaid cards usually have very low fees, but PaySafeCards are a little more demanding in this area and there are a number of ways that they can charge you. The good news is that standard transactions and online casino transfers will generate fewer fees than a service like Skrill, the bad news is that you might end up paying more in the long-run, depending on what you use it for, what currency you use and where you are located.

The following fees apply to the PaySafeCard MasterCard. These are usually higher than standard PaySafeCards, but they are also more popular and have more features:

• Annual Fee = £8
• Cash Machine Withdrawals = 3% (minimum £3)
• Currency Conversion Fee = 2%
• Top-Up Fee = 4%

 

  If we compare some of these fees to other methods then there are upsides and downsides. PaySafeCard is cheaper than Skrill for currency conversions by nearly 2 whole percent. This means that you could save a whole £200 on a £10,000 conversion. The cash machine withdrawal fee looks high, but you will also be charged fees for credit cards and even debit cards, while the annual fee on bank accounts, credit cards and other methods is often higher than £8. The top-up fee is discouraging though as it means you will lose 4% of your money before you even make a transaction. On the plus side, you won’t be met with heavy fees levied by the casino and the payment service during deposits and withdrawals. With Skrill, such fees can add-up to more than 12% and with PayPal you may end up paying 5%. If you use PaySafeCard you can skip these entirely.

PaySafeCard Pros

• It is incredibly safe, with no need to expose credit card, debit card or bank details
• There are low fees, with no fees charged for many transactions
• It is very quick
• It is run by an established brand that also owns Skrill and Neteller
• It is great for bankrolling

PaySafeCard Cons

• It can be fiddly and time consuming to setup
• It can be difficult to withdraw, requiring an account and not being as accessible as web wallets like PayPal
• It is not as widely accepted as Skrill, Neteller or PayPal
• It is very rare outside of Europe, so you may struggle on non-EU casinos

Customer Support on PaySafeCard

Skrill have some terrible, slow and frustrating customer support. Neteller are a little better, but tend to slack off just as much. PaySafeCard, however, is better than both of these. It is far from perfect and it can still learn a thing or two from PayPal, but it is moving in the right direction and by contacting them with an issue you’re not in for weeks and weeks of a frustrating back-and-forth like you are with Skrill.

PaySafeCard Limits

There is a limit of £200 per payment on the PaySafeCard and you can only purchase this amount if you are using a PayPoint. There are also a number of limits on the PaySafeCard MasterCard, which have been listed below:

• Maximum Balance: £4,000
• Maximum Daily Top-Ups: £1.500
• Maximum Annual Top-Ups = £40,000
• Single Transaction = £750
• Daily Transaction = £1,500
• Single ATM Withdrawal = £400
• Daily ATM Withdrawal = £400
• Monthly ATM Withdrawal = £1,000

The limits above apply to the adult cards. There are also “Young Adult” cards that have lower limits.
