When you decide that you’d like to play at an online bingo site or casino, you may wonder how you should go about adding and withdrawing funds.
Not every online bingo brand offers the same number or choice of payment methods. So, finding one that caters for your preferred option is something that you should definitely consider.
At Foxy Bingo, we pride ourselves on giving our players a wide selection of banking methods, including e-wallets, debit cards, pre-paid cards and bank transfers.
In this article, we look at how each of these payment methods works and the pros and cons of using them.
Skrill (which used to be known as Moneybookers) is another popular e-wallet you can use at Foxy Bingo.
Skrill doesn’t share your banking details with any third parties, so it’s considered a highly secure way of making online payments and performing money transfers.
Using your Skrill digital wallet to fund your Foxy Bingo account is simple. You simply select Skrill when making a deposit or withdrawal, then tell us how much you wish to add or withdraw. The external Skrill website allows you to confirm the payment. Deposits are credited to your balance instantly, while withdrawals can take up to four hours following the approval of your withdrawal request.
Neteller is a highly reputable e-money transfer service that allows you to pay for goods and services online. It’s also a fast way to get paid at online bingo sites!
When you play at an online bingo site such as Foxy Bingo and wish to make a deposit or withdrawal using Neteller, simply look for the Neteller logo in the site’s footer or the Cashier.
UK players have been using this digital e-wallet service to fund online gaming since 2000, so you can be sure that you’re in safe hands.
However, like other e-wallets, you may find that you’re not eligible to claim as many special offers as players who use debit cards, although this should be clearly stated in each offer’s terms and conditions to avoid disappointment.
If you don’t have access to an e-wallet or debit card, bank transfers can be the best option.
Bank transfers are sometimes referred to as wire transfers, and while they can take longer for you to receive withdrawn funds (N.B. sometimes up to 10 working days), they can be useful when you have no alternatives or if you’ve deposited using a payment method that you cannot withdraw to like Pay by Mobile and Paysafecard.
Bank transfers require you to give the online bingo site your account number and sort code (and sometimes your IBAN and SWIFT numbers which can be found at the top of your bank statement).
Paysafecards are prepaid vouchers that can be purchased in participating stores across the UK. You simply tell the cashier the required voucher value (e.g. 5 or 50) then pay for it over the counter. You can also open an online Paysafecard account which you can top-up using other e-wallets or debit cards.
When you choose to use Paysafe at Foxy Bingo, all you need to do is enter the long code on the front of the voucher to allow us to credit the funds to your account.
If you have an online Paysafecard account, you can also use it to move money across to your Foxy Bingo account.
Pre-paid voucher payment systems are safe and secure as you don’t need to share your financial data with other parties. They are also handy for players who don’t have e-wallet accounts or debit cards.
Now that we’ve explained all the banking methods that are available to players at Foxy Bingo, all you need to do is pick your preferred method when visiting our Cashier, then make a deposit. Once your funds have been credited to your account, you’ll be able to start discovering our fantastic range of bingo games and slots. Plus, once you’re ready to withdraw your winnings, you’ll find that it’s just as easy to cash out as it is to deposit!
