Casino players where you can pay with PayPal
PayPal is one of the longest-standing online wallets. Founded, among others, by the famous Elon Musk, it is popular all over the world, especially in the USA. This is due to simple operating principles and a very high level of security of money and user data.
To use PayPal, you only need a bank account, email address and Internet access. You can create a profile in a few moments and settle accounts with other users almost immediately. The company maintains 250 million user accounts from all over the world, which is the best proof of trust in the brand, which has been built for over 20 years.
PayPal offers domestic and foreign payments, payment cards, mobile applications for Android and iOS devices, and a buyer protection program. Of course, you can also pay with it in online casinos, but in very few. Let’s see why.
Why should you use PayPal?
The list of PayPal’s advantages is very long and the most important are:
- Global reach
- The ability to make transactions without revealing your account or credit card numbers
- Free domestic transactions
- Instant transaction execution
- Convenient mobile applications
- Buyer protection program against dishonest sellers
- Zero fixed costs
PayPal attaches great importance to the transparency of transactions and their legality. It happens that transactions are suspended until any doubts are clarified by PayPal. For this reason, using PayPal in online casinos is not always successful.
How do I make a PayPal deposit at an online casino?
Are you looking for an answer to the question of how to deposit money to an online casino via PayPal. You are probably expecting a description of a few short steps on how to complete a transaction, what to click and how to approve the operation. With PayPal, it won’t be that simple.
PayPal verifies the legality of transactions performed through it. He pays particular attention to gambling transactions, treating them as suspicious as a rule. PayPal payments are only possible at casinos:
- Located in countries that have regulated the gambling market
- Which have passed the payment operator verification successfully
It is important to know that PayPal verifies not only the casino’s location, but also the user making the payment. The check is very rigorous, which is why many casinos simply won’t be able to pay with this method. On the other hand, if you see PayPal among the payment options, you can take it as an additional confirmation of the reliability of the casino.
If you found an online casino with PayPal support, the transaction itself should not be a problem for you. In the user panel, go to the payment section and select PayPal. In the next step, enter the amount and confirm your decision. You will be transferred to the PayPal website where you will be able to log in and approve the operation. The transaction should be completed within seconds.
Payment of winnings to the PayPal account
PayPal casinos also allow you to withdraw money the same way. To complete the transaction, log in to the online casino and go to the payment section (finances, billing etc - names will vary depending on the casino). Select PayPal and enter the amount you want to transfer. In the next step, enter the email address on which you have registered your PayPal wallet. After approval of the operation, the money should be on your account in a few moments.
It is worth remembering that a withdrawal of funds can result in the loss of bonuses if it occurs before the conditions for receiving them are met, as well as additional fees, especially if the player has not made a lot of money. Before ordering a transaction, carefully read the general terms and conditions and promotional campaigns.
Alternative payment methods at online casinos
PayPal used to be widely used in online casinos, but lately it has become increasingly difficult to find a casino that supports it. This is due not so much to the decisions of online casinos as to the policies of the transfer operator itself. It is therefore worth getting to know alternative payment methods in online casinos, which are very numerous.
| PAYMENT METHOD | NEOSURF | SKRILL | ECOPAYZ | CRYPTOCURRENCIES |
| Type | Prepaid card | Electronic wallet | Electronic wallet | Virtual currencies |
| Basic information | Neosurf works with codes that can be purchased from a kiosk or gas station. There are several denominations from 20 to 750 zlotys. Payment is by rewriting the coupon code on the casino website. | Skrill works in a similar way to PayPal, running the user’s virtual wallet. Offers instant transfers and payment cards. | Ecopayz is a solution similar to Skrill and PayPal, allowing online settlements and cash withdrawals at ATMs using a payment card. | Electronic currencies are based on blockchain technology. They do not have an issuer and are not subject to any central banks. They exist thanks to P2P technology, i.e. direct connections of Internet users, each of whom has the same rights. |

The above methods are among the modern payment solutions that are more and more often found in online casinos. Many of them, especially Skrill and Ecopayz, are slowly replacing PayPal. It is also worth remembering about more conservative ways to transfer money to a virtual casino.
Credit and debit cards are issued by banks. The transaction consists in entering the amount, card number, expiry date and code on the back of the plastic. Often, additional security is required via an SMS code or a mobile application. Transactions are lightning-fast and casinos don’t usually charge for them (but some banks do). For added security, virtual cards have also been created that can be used on the Internet, leaving the plastic ones only for settlements in shops and ATMs.
There is still a traditional transfer, but this method is rarely chosen when transferring funds to the casino. The main reason is the long turnaround times and sometimes high commissions as well.
How to choose a good internet casino?
If you do not have an online casino account yet, or you want to change it, please read the following points before registering.
The most important criterion is licenses. Check if the online casino of your choice is licensed by the Polish Ministry of Finance or at least the authorities of Malta (MGA), Great Britain (UKGC) or Curacao. In addition to them, industry certificates confirming the technical security of the website and fair gameplay of the offered games are also important. The eCOGRA certificate is the best known.
Check what company has created the casino. Search the internet for other gambling temples that belong to them and see how they are doing over the years. If they disappear as quickly as they appear, you’d better look elsewhere. On the other extreme there are casinos that have been around for many years and are trusted by hundreds of thousands of players from around the world (22bet, Betsson, Unibet).
The quality of the promotional offer is another criterion that many players consider the most important. I do not fully agree with him, but of course it is worth rewarding the player’s contributions, for example by doubling them. Pay attention not only to the promotional bonus, but also to regular offers for regular players (unless you are a bonus hunter). In each review on my website, I accurately describe the current proposals for players, so you can easily choose the best place for you.
Only good game and software producers can do a good casino. The most renowned companies are NetEnt, Microgaming, Play’N Go, Wazdan and Pragmatic Play. The best casinos even offer over 4,000 different games of all kinds, including slots, table games, roulette and live casino. In addition, there are often scratch cards, wheels of fortune, and for a change also sports betting. A good casino will make sure that you never get bored.
In addition to analyzing the offer, carefully study all the regulations available on the casino’s website. Thanks to this, you will avoid unpleasant surprises, especially regarding promotional campaigns and payments. If the rules are vague, contradictory, or translated using an automatic translator, better go elsewhere.
