Best Way to Fund Internet Poker Sites

Monthly article for the newbies that make it to this site. You veterans of the NPP wars are promoting the site, the game and our Poker Stars tourney right?

The best and safest way I have found to add chips to your poker site is thru the internet bank called Net Teller. This is a FREE Internet banking site. It is quite easy to use, lightening fast in depositing into poker sites and cashing back out is as fast as the poker site allows.

I say ‘free’ but there is about a 9% transaction fee up to a certain amout transferred or amount deposited – then after that it is free. Still, Net Teller is a publicly traded company in England and is as safe as any bank I would imagine.

Here are the steps to get ready for internet poker.

Step 1. Open a checking account with your poker stake money in a bank that you do no other business with. This will be your ‘poker’ account. Do not use a savings account as those accounts do not allow transfers.

Step 3. Open a Net Teller account on line.

Step 4. Transfer money to Net Teller using the account and funds you deposited in your new ‘Poker’ Bank Savings Account. Be sure to leave the minimum required in the checking account so you can transfer winnings back.

Now you will be able to load money into any poker site from Net Teller that is still taking USA customers.

This way, the poker world can only reach back to Net Teller and Net Teller can only reach back to your poker checking account. Never use your main accounts for anything on line. I am pretty sure Net Teller and the poker sites I suggest are on the up and up, but better safe than sorry.

See NPP’s lists of ‘good’ internet poker sites which always follows or preceeds this post. NPP strongly suggests that Poker Stars be a newbie’s first stop. It is simply the best site out there. Then try some of the others for a change of pace, scenery or the infamous ‘deck change’ or ‘seat change’.

This is just another friendly public service announcement of NPP. - Faldo
