How to use Union Pay Card

You’ll need to visit the cashier area of your chosen online casino in order to do make the deposit. Once you’ve bought a card you’ll be able to use it in a similar way to a debit or credit card to deposit into your account with an online casino. The benefits of using this method rather than a credit card or debit card linked to your bank account is that you don’t need to disclose your banking details directly to the online casino, which means you’ll be able to keep them secure.

Advantages

Another big advantage of this deposit method is that players based in the United Stated are able to use UnionPay to deposit into their online casino accounts instead of credit cards, making this very practical. Unfortunately for US players there can often be a lot of problems with using a credit card at a casino sites, as banks and credit card providers often deny the transactions. This means that the players need to use alternative funding methods, which can be inconvenient.

Purchasing a Union Pay card would be a good way for a US-based online casino player to be able to fund their account because these cards are international and can be used at online casinos around the world. Thankfully Union Pay pre-paid cards offer the ease of quick fund transfers with the convenience of being accepted at a large number of casinos.

Limits on deposits

While transfers with UnionPay are instant, lots of online casinos have limits on the amount of funds that can be deposited this way so it’s worth checking this with your chosen casino site before purchasing a UnionPay card.
