Why do many casinos not accept paypal?

Posted:13.11.2009, 13:01

I read somewhere that casinos worst deposit method is Paypal.
Why is it like that? I think Paypal is a really easy method to use.

I have $18 in one of my Paypal account but i cant find any casino to deposit them in.

I already tried this ones:
Ladbrokes, Luckyace, Betfair, 888 and Betfred.

I havnt try Supro Casino yet because minimum deposit there is $50!
Find no info more than this:

Any sites to share with me?

431robin, Hi. It is paypal's decision to decide what countries they allow casino/gambling deposits. Paypal only allows casino deposits from a few countries.. I know that UK players can use paypal at 32red. Basically it has to do with laws and how paypal wishes to only allow casino transactions in certain countries.

Hi Robin!

Actually I think it's the other way around. Paypal doesn't approve gambling..
Here is what I found on their website:

PayPal Acceptable Use Policy

You may not use the PayPal service for activities that:

involve gambling, gaming and/or any other activity with an entry fee and a prize, including, but not limited to casino games, sports betting, horse or greyhound racing, lottery tickets, other ventures that facilitate gambling, games of skill (whether or not it is legally defined as a lottery) and sweepstakes unless the operator has obtained prior approval from PayPal and the operator and customers are located exclusively in jurisdictions where such activities are permitted by law.

That is kind of true. I lost my paypalaccount because I got money from a paypalaccount when I won a contest from someone in the US, but I used my money to play in both Ladbrokes and 32red, and that was okey. It felt strange for me since I didn't know that I wasn't allowed to.
