iGaming Business – Online poker operators WSOP.com and Ultimate Poker are to adopt the NETELLER payment processing solution in an attempt to solve problems players have in depositing and withdrawing from websites in regulated US states.
According to the Pokerfuse.com website, WSOP introduced a NETELLER option for customers in New Jersey last month and has now received approval to use the Net Plus card for its Nevada online poker service.
The US version of Net Plus is a pre-paid Discover card that players can use to withdraw and deposit funds, with access to cash at ATM machines.
The card can be funded by Visa or MasterCard, which could help eliminate problems players have experienced when trying to use the credit cards for depositing on in-state regulated gambling sites.
The WSOP Nevada version is currently only available for deposits but a withdrawal service is expected to be introduced in the near future.
Ultimate Poker will adopt the NETELLER and Sightline Payments joint system, the same service offered by both Borgata Poker and PartyPoker in New Jersey.
The operator has also requested approval for use in Nevada with a decision expected next month.
Once approved, it will mean all the major operators in both New Jersey and Nevada will have adopted the NETELLER/Sightline Payments solution.
