Hello,

I am interested in sports gambling, and would like to do it online. I
came across the website Betandwin.com, but they only accept credit
cards. I would like to pay for the bets by another option, such as
PayPal. To the best of my knowledge eBay no longer allows gambling
transactions to be made through PayPal, so are there any other similar
services that work about the same way, and can be used to gamble at a
good respectable site?

In short - I am looking for a gambling site that allows payments to be
made through services similar to PayPal (or even PayPal, if that is
possible).

Thank you very much,
C.

I would just like to stress that I am only interested in respectable,
trusted gambling sites, with a variety of sports. Betandwin.com is a
good example.

Thanks,
C.

I asked myself the same questions about two years ago.  The site
http://www.sportsbookreview.com/ was very helpful to me.  I picked
VIPSports.com which remains on their recommended list.  I used
http://www.neteller.com, a service similar to Paypal, to move money
back and forth.  Although my gambling theories failed to work, I did
move several thousand dollars back and forth through this process and
didn't have any problems.  There are probably lots of other choices
available, but these worked fine for me.

The answer is yes there is another service available.

www.moneybookers.com is very similar to paypal and is widely accepted
my many reputable bookmakers.

Setting up a Moneybookers account is pretty much similar to paypal,
your account there can be funded via a bank transfer(free) or by
credit card(3% charge). Their security is also high, they always
display your last successful login, and have random payment
verification where they might ask you some info you had provided
earlier about yourself.

They are widely accepted by reputable bookmakers like
www.gamebookers.com, www.betfair.com AND ALSO WWW.BETANDWIN.COM

If you have a betandwin account, goto My Account --> In Payments  and
you will see moneybookers listed there as a funding option. If you
click on it you can enter your moneybookers email address and amount
to transfer. You will be prompted to login to moneybookers and the
funds should be instantly transfered to your betandwin account.

Regards and good luck

Many thanks to both of you; I am now fully set up with Money Bookers
and ready to send some money to hell. :)
