Writing a Cheque to Online Casinos
One of the most common questions we are asked is whether or not players can deposit into a high roller casino using a cheque. The simple answer to your question is “Yes” casino players will be able to use a cheque to fund their high roller casino account, but in order to deposit using a cheque you obviously need to have a checking account at your bank.
What is an eCheck?
Normally when you send a cheque to someone, you fill out the cheque with the person’s information plus payment amount. You still need to do this when sending a cheque to a high roller casino, but you get to send the cheque electronically. The term eCheck is just short form for an electronic cheque. The benefit of using an eCheck is that everything is handled electronically and instantly, so that you have your deposit available in your account immediately after completing your deposit.
How to send an eCheck
When you are ready to deposit using an eCheck, you need certain information readily available. Once you are on the eCheck cashier page you need to provide the high roller casino with your full name, address, checking account number and routing number in order to be able to complete your eCheck deposit without any hassles. High roller casinos will also ask for your ID to prevent any fraud from happening on your account and to protect the casino in case your checking account does not have sufficient funds.
eChecks are processed instantly because the casino is able to see if your have sufficient funds right away. The actual deposit will not be taken from your checking account for a few days, so make sure you keep the money in your account. One reason why so many people love using eChecks is that you can use eChecks as a withdrawal method as well. You can have the high roller casino issue you an eCheck when you want to make a withdrawal and your money will be in your checking account within 24-48 hours usually.
Instant eChecks have grown in popularity around the world because they are quite simple to use. eChecks are also safe and secure, as the casino can never take more than the actual amount you have listed on your eCheck. High rollers also enjoy using eChecks, as they do not need to worry about trusting an e-wallet or other payment processor. High rollers can fund their online casino account instantly using their checking account, which is by far the best way to deposit into a high roller casino.
The reason eChecks are better than credit cards is because you can withdraw as much as you want using an eCheck whereas you can only receive chargeback’s on your credit card, which means you cannot exceed your deposit amounts. eChecks have not been that popular in the UK or Europe yet, but more high rollers are starting to use instant electronic cheques due to the convenience.
