I use MoneyBookers and I like it. No fee to receive money and no fee to deposit to Poker room. So haven't paid any fees so I'm happy with it I was going to try neteller but North America -> denied lol.

I use iDeal, it is very easy to use. You'll have the money deposit in 1min an booked off your account in 2min But I dont think that option is available in Canada.

Good Day squirrm! Sure, all deposit options depends on a place you are living , and transfers fee. I my opinion, moneybookers would be best for u. The maximum fee , for withdraw is about 1,5$ for any summ you gonna cashout. So it`s quite nice, isn`t? Good luck, and wish you to cash out more bucks

There is one thing with Moneybookers and that is transaction limit, which if you don`t increase it, is not enough for serious gambling, $1500 transaction limit in 90 days. Everything else is great, no fees, no initial funding before you can use it, and if only poker rooms and casinos would not hold up money for no reason it could be the quickest method online. You can increase limit to $3500 in 90 days which should be enough for some, not sure about canadians but in Croatia $1200 per month is average monthly wage, pretax. And another thing, Moneybookers opened bank account in local bank so no expensive international fees for me.
thanks for all your input sounding good to me. Also I'm not a serious gambler.. just having some fun when my schedule allows it. So I don't think the transaction limit would be a problem. Athough I hope to one day have the need to complain that it is LOL.

Hi squirrm, not too many Canadians or females around here
For MoneyBookers, if you want to withdraw your money for free than deposit it to Poker Room and withdraw by cheque or other free method. I just deposit to Pokerstars and Pokerstars sends me a cheque.
Predobar, $1500 transaction limit in 90 days must be wrong? My outgoing transaction limit 8939.70 CAD / in any 90 day period Verify your credit/debit card + 7449.75 CAD Verify your bank account + 7449.75 CAD And than you can contact MoneyBookers and they can increase further, even over $50,000 out going limit.
Oh ya, if you sign up to MoneyBookers, I had to wait for a letter with a code on it which took a few days. I think there's a faster way to get verified but you'd have to contact them.
