Best offshore sportsbooks for online betting?

Tyler Taylor82 said:Technically, you could—but I wouldn't advise it. There are certain people who just aren't cut out for this, and once that money is gone, getting it back is practically impossible...

What am I supposed to do? I already sent the funds via Zelle to Skrill.

The money bounced back to my Zelle account—did Skrill reject it?? Can anyone help me out here?

Tyler Taylor82 said:Sure, you can try that theoretically, but I wouldn't recommend it. Some people just miss their window, and once that happens, getting your money back is basically impossible...

If it doesn't show up, you just keep requesting it. Over and over and over.

I could use a little hand here. I'm trying to go through the card verification process for PayPal, and they just ran a small charge of about $1.30 on my card. Now they're asking me to confirm exactly how much was taken in USD. Does anyone know the best way to convert this accurately?

From what I can see, that's about $1.10.
But honestly, you might just want to ask them what exchange rate they're using, or just give them a rough estimate based on the current market rate.

Can I use my first Visa debit card on Pinnacle? During registration, they're asking for a scan of the card with the last three digits covered, but my card has seven numbers on the back instead.🤔

Thomas Cook54 said:Is it possible to utilize an initial Visa debit card for deposits on Pinnacle? I have noted that during the registration process, they request a scan of the card with the last three digits covered, yet my physical card displays seven digits on the reverse side.🤔

Regarding those initial seven digits, the final four correspond exactly to the last four numbers displayed on the front of your card. As for the subsequent three digits within that sequence of seven, those are the specific ones you must obscure, as they represent the security code.

Hi there, does anyone happen to have experience using 10bet? I was considering them because they seem to offer a huge variety of tennis handicap options. I guess I am just wondering if this information ( http://www.kladionice-online.com/kladionice/10bet) regarding their deposits and withdrawals is actually accurate for this sportsbook? Thanks.

It's a decent sportsbook, though I have to say, the payouts take their sweet time—expect about a two-day wait if you're using Skrill.

Tyler Taylor82 said:It’s a pretty decent sportsbook, though I guess the payouts take a little while to process—maybe about two days when using Skrill.

I suppose they only allow withdrawals in USD when using Skrill?

Arthur Thomas13 said:Do they only take a single dollar from the profit when I withdraw via Skrill?

The documentation clearly states that they charge a one-dollar fee per withdrawal, provided you aren't withdrawing too frequently; if you are playing with significant capital, such a minor fee will likely be inconsequential to you.

Well, I could use some help getting an account set up too.
I linked my Visa card and they took $1.89—that's basically all I have in there right now—so do I actually need to withdraw those funds or what do I do next to get everything fully up and running?
I tried hitting the "SEND" option, but it’s asking for an email address to send it to... does it really work like that, where you just send money via email? Is that the deal?
Look, I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this modern digital money stuff and online payments, so bear with me.
I haven't even signed up for a sportsbook yet because I want to get this payment thing figured out first. From what I've gathered, BetOnline seems decent for beginners, and then there's DraftKings and Pinnacle—I mostly just like betting on a couple of soccer matches.

Just set up an account, hit the deposit button, pick Skrill, and you're redirected straight to your own Skrill account to pull whatever amount you want.
The email thing is just if you're sending money to someone else via Skrill.
I wouldn't touch Bah, honestly. It’s a joke—trash offers and terrible odds. Check out Expekt or Unibet instead. If you're doing singles, Pinnacle is the only way to go!

Welcome to the group, everyone; I’d suggest you all take a moment to scout out which sportsbooks are actually offering decent bonuses right now. For instance, sites like DraftKings or BetMGM tend to have some pretty solid incentives available—just make sure you actually bother reading the fine print on the terms and conditions first, won't you?

So, wait—do I actually need to maintain a specific balance in my PayPal account just to make a deposit? I think I totally misread the situation; I was under the impression they were basically just acting as a middleman handling the transaction between the sportsbook and my bank account.
Also, I saw that PayPal offers their own MASTERCARD, too... is that something I actually need to go out and get?

If I remember right, you can definitely top up using a Mastercard... I’ve been sticking with my Intel card from Chase for a few years now, though you gotta make sure there’s actual foreign currency in the account first.
Someone who actually uses a Mastercard will give you the real scoop.

Grab a PayPal MASTERCARD for sure. You can hit an ATM to pull cash, zero waiting around, and no paper trail. Plus, you can use it for shopping.

Does anyone happen to know the exact percentage lost during currency conversion if my PayPal account is held in Euros, yet I am withdrawing cash from an ATM or making purchases here in the States using Dollars?

At the moment, my balance is being processed in a different denomination, and whenever I make a deposit, it converts the funds into Euros at a rate of approximately 1.08.

I'm not exactly tech-savvy when it comes to digital currency or online payments, so bear with me.

First, you need to verify that card, along with your ID and proof of address.

Right now, my balance is in a different currency, and whenever I deposit, it converts everything to USD at a rate of about 8.01.

You aren't losing anything. If anything, you're getting a better rate—roughly the mid-market rate—than you would at a local currency exchange kiosk.

Arthur Howard said:"We don't want you as a player because you aren't profitable for us."

That’s exactly what limiting is all about.

Look, I get the whole concept behind limiting, but how on earth can they possibly decide I'm not a profitable customer after only two days? 🤦🤦

Chris Nguyen31 said:You aren't actually losing anything; in fact, you end up securing a much more favorable rate—roughly the mid-market rate—than what you would receive if you were exchanging USD at a physical currency exchange booth.

If that is the case, why am I being hit with such poor exchange rates when I try to swap my dollars? For instance, whenever I attempt to fund my Marathon account using my PayPal balance, which is held in USD, they apply an exchange rate of 8.

driftingotter47 said:I can certainly understand the logic behind implementing limits, but I find it difficult to comprehend how they can decide within just two days that I am not a profitable client for them.🤦🤦

Well, they simply have no way of knowing whether you are a genuine newcomer or just someone who has already cleaned them out and decided to open a fresh account.
