UB Deposit Methods Overview in 2011

Anyone who has ever placed a bet online knows how frustrating it can be to receive conflicting information from many different sources. Regional laws place various restrictions on several aspects of playing poker online, and in many cases your deposit method should work 100% of the time but for some reason it simply doesn’t.

Ultimate Bet, also known simply as UB, has gone to great lengths to simplify the deposit process on their website and to make it so that players do not face these types of frustrations. In fact, they have more deposit options than any other gaming website on the internet and their approval rates are among the highest in the industry. This article will summarize the different types of deposit options at UB and which regions would benefit from it the most.

Credit Cards

UB has excellent approval rates on credit cards sponsored by the Visa, MasterCard, Euro6000, EntroPay, CartiSi, 4B, or Laser logos. Deposits can be made directly through the UB website, through live help online, or by phone through their customer service. In regions without any restrictions on these types of transactions, credit card approval can normally be gained almost instantly.

For areas that have some type of legislation that forbids banks to transfer money to online poker rooms, the approval process can take up to two days time and may not be the best deposit option. In addition, customers will have better results calling the UB customer service directly.

Debit Cards

Debit cards such as EcoCard and UKash (plus those with the sponsored logos listed above in the credit card section) are also viable options for fast deposit in regions that allow financial institutions to transfer money to casinos, and the deposit times at UB are almost instant when using this method. The transaction process works exactly the same way as credit cards. It is important to point out, however, that most regions offer less online protection with a debit card when compared to credit transactions.

Instant eCheck Deposits

One of the newest options for deposits at Ultimate Bet is an instant eCheck, and it is available for worldwide customers that have a checking or savings account. To use the eCheck option, fill out the online form that is available at the UB cashier or contact their customer service department by phone. This method will ask for several pieces of proof that you are the account holder, but the process itself only takes mere seconds to process and the money is available immediately. For most players, this will be the easiest deposit option….especially those living in areas that have banking restrictions on casino deposits.

Third Party Deposit Services

There are numerous money handling websites that can process deposit requests for those wishing to place wagers at UB, and most of them have means of bypassing local restrictions that delay or complicate the approval process. It is important to note, however, that some of these online merchants charge various fees for their services.

Bank Wire

If there are no restrictions within your country in terms of transferring money from a banking account to an online casino, then a bank wire option would be available. This method would have to be completed through UB customer service and processing times vary by region. This method is not an instant transfer, however, so it is not recommended unless the consumer has no other option available (in most cases, an eCheck would be a better alternative).

Bank Transfer

This method of deposit works exactly the same was as a bank wire except that funds are sent electronically to UB. Not only does this allow faster transaction times, but it is also thought to be a more secure method of the two options.

Check or Money Order by Mail

Another popular option for consumers who do not have access to a credit card is to send a check or money order by mail. While over 99% of the UB users will not be required to use this method, it remains available for those in unique circumstances that could not deposit money otherwise. Since this transaction relies on the mail plus several additional days of processing, it should be avoided whenever possible.
