I use visa for all my deposit on the sites I play,but I really like partypoker's mastercard,its fast and you get you r money on the mastercard in mins after withdrawal.For other sites I use visa,to do both cashin/cashout,pokertsras and fulltilt party,are the only ones I trust for bank wires,and 888 as well.
Doesn't skrill excist in Canada? And u guys have to pay tax there? I prefer money on my skrill account... Iff you cash out more often more then 500$ for example.. Then the change is u have to pay tax here...so i leave my bank outside of poker

Yeah why is Canadian playing poker isnt it banned though you might be in the same country as America and that is why i thin kit is banned but most you can use is either skrill or neteller best two e payment tools you should have, give it a try and see if they accepted in your country mate. Anyway good luck at the tables have fun and make some money on those fishes and we can laugh at them doing stupid moves lol, peace out man!

Hi,well,we do have skrill but we cant use it for E-gaming,or making any deposits or withdrawals from any sites,they say because of legislation changes in Canada,they can longer do that kind of business,but we can use it (skrill) for shopping online and sending money. Canada is an independent country were we don't pay any taxes on lottery winnings or any gambling,we are not part of USA. Some ipoker skins no longer accept players from Canada,any they say its because of legislation,it is rumored pokerstars, fulltilt,and some others will eventually pull out of the Canadian market,I hope not,but it may happen,we do have our own poker network for Canadian players,which is run inc operation with some provincial goverments,its called playnow.com and some thing else in Quebec,the sites are only open to a few provinces with others to follow,I know ontairo was supposed to be a part of that network,for some time now,but as far as I know this hasn't happen yet.

If you have a mastercard with a credit balance you make a deposit the computer will charge you cash advance but when you receive you monthly statement you call them and they reverse the charge so means no cost.
For cash out Pokerstars i used echeck no charge and party poker electronic transfer no charge.
The currency conversion would be approx. same as the bank would charge. PKR i dont use.
