Ryan

what's the story with PayPal and Neteller? I noticed the PayPal option for depositing funds into Neteller was no longer there.

thanks.

NETeller is a merchant that in the past has utilized our service to process credit card and bank payments for many gaming merchants.

Many merchants recently have chosen to integrate PayPal which puts us in competition with NETeller.

PayPal has been around for almost 18 months, outlasting numerous competitors that have attempted to establish themselves in the industry of online payments. Thanks to aggressive strategies and a great product, PayPal is far and away the most popular method of payment for online auctions, and now we have decided that we want to achieve similar, if not greater, success in this market as well.

Currently PayPal precesses around 150,000 payments daily, totalling on average between 7 and 8 million dollars.

We hope that the fact that NETeller built their service using our product illustrates the quality of PayPal and suggests to the users that we can service any and all of your needs in this market.

Thanks

thanks for your response.

if given the choice, i would use PayPal over Neteller. However, of the 15 books i use none offer PayPal and about 12 of them offer Neteller.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. What are some of the sportsbooks that you like that don't currently accept PayPal?

We are working with many merchants, and some are beginning to sense a demand for PayPal.

PayPal is still very new to this market, and some sites have been slow in integrating us. But as consumer demand continues to swell, merchants will be even more likely to sign with us.

Thanks

We are currently working with most, if not all of them.

We are confident that all sites will eventually end up using our service, but the best way to speed up the process is to express to the site your desire to use PayPal.

As the old saying goes, the customer is always right. And if users continue to express to them that they want PayPal, the sites will be more inclined to expedite the process.

Thanks
