Play Poker for Real Money Using Visa

How can I make purchases at PokerStars using Visa / Visa Electron?

Visa purchase is fully integrated via the PokerStars cashier screen. When you click on "Cashier" and then on "Buy Chips", you will see an option to use Visa. Click on the Visa button and enter the amount you wish to deposit. In addition to USD, players can choose to deposit in CAD, GBP, EUR, SEK, NOK, DKK and AUD currencies, thus avoiding VISA exchange service charges of up to 3%. Local currency deposit options will only be available to players from the countries using above currencies. Deposits will be automatically converted to US$ equivalent using the current exchange rate. Currently the purchase limits are:

• US $10 - minimum purchase
• US $600 - maximum amount to purchase within 24 hours
• US $1,500 - maximum amount to purchase within 7 days
• US $2,000 - maximum amount to purchase within 30 days

When you click on "Submit", your request will be submitted to your bank servers via one of our processors and you will receive confirmation in about a minute. Purchase transactions are identified on your credit card statement as PStars.

Credit card transactions are processed through our E-Cash subsidiary, Rational Entertainment Enterprises Ltd, Douglas Bay Complex, King Edward Road, IM3 IDZ Onchan, Isle of Man and Openshore Trading Limited, 6 Loanni Stylianou St, 2nd floor, Nicosia, Cyprus.

Customers are recommended to print all transaction data, rules, etc for future reference.

Gift and Prepaid VISA

Making a deposit at PokerStars using a Gift or Prepaid VISA is the same as making a deposit using a regular VISA, as outlined above. Please note that not all Gift and Prepaid VISA cards will allow you to deposit successfully at PokerStars.

Before you purchase a Gift or Prepaid VISA, please email our Deposit Assistance Department (DAD) at dad@pokerstars.com to request information on Gift and Prepaid cards that can be used to successfully deposit.

What about my cashouts?

You may use a CFT eligible Visa card to cash out amount above the deposits that you have made with any other deposit method. You would need to make at least one purchase with a CFT eligible Visa card to be able to cashout to it. Please view our cashout policy for more information.

How does the exchange to local currency work?

PokerStars uses Reuters exchange rates to convert deposits in local currency to USD. PokerStars does not charge a conversion fee!

What will it cost me to use Visa at PokerStars?

PokerStars does not charge any fees for using Visa cards. Players are responsible for any fees charged by their card issuer.
