All About NETELLER

What is NETELLER?

NETELLER is a personal account that works much like an online debit card: you deposit money into your secure personal NETELLER account, and then use that account to make online purchases at places like Hollywood Poker. The NETELLER account is free to open, and is a fast, secure and reliable way to deposit money into your Hollywood Poker account.


Who is NETELLER?

NETELLER is a secure online money transfer service.  They have been providing secure transactions since 1999 and are one of the leading service providers in the industry. They now have over 1,000,000 members and in 2003 they processed $1.5 billion in online transactions. They have 4 Regional Offices spanning the globe, and are a publicly-traded company on the London Stock Exchange. 


Why should I use NETELLER?

NETELLER is a great alternative for depositing money into your Hollywood Poker account if your bank does not allow you to make online gaming purchases with your credit cards. If your credit card is rejected at Hollywood Poker, NETELLER is a perfect place to start!

NETELLER is also a fantastic method for withdrawing funds from Hollywood Poker. You can make a Cash-Out directly to your NETELLER account and have that money in your possession much faster than it would take to receive a check. You can then withdraw the money from your NETELLER account to your credit card or use the funds to make purchases at other online shopping sites which accept NETELLER. NETELLER even has ATM cards that you can use to withdraw money!


This sounds great, how do I get a NETELLER account?

It only takes a few minutes to get a NETELLER account. Simply go to the NETELLER site and fill in a few details in the new window that pops up, and then come back to My Account on Hollywood Poker when you have completed creating your account at NETELLER and have deposited money into it. Please make sure you use the same email address for NETELLER as you used for your Hollywood Poker account. We also have a NETELLER tutorial that helps you to sign up.


I already have a NETELLER account, can I use it at Hollywood Poker?

You sure can! Just make sure that the email address you use when you register at Hollywood Poker is the same as the one you use at NETELLER, and then visit our Hollywood Poker Deposit Page.
(If you need to change the email you use for Hollywood Poker, you can easily do so on your personal settings page.)


I'd like some more information on how to put money in my NETELLER account, and are there any fees?

There are two main ways to put money in your NETELLER account:

1. Credit Card
This will instantly transfer money from your credit card to your NETELLER account. They will charge you a 3.9% fee for this option

2. Electronic Funds Transfer
This is a free way of transferring money from your bank account to NETELLER, but it can take 4-5 days before the money reaches your NETELLER account.

If you don't want to use either of these methods, you'll want to check out NETELLER's InstaCash service which allows you to deposit money into your Hollywood Poker account directly from your bank account - Instantly, and for free - right on the Hollywood Poker site! This is the preferred method used by most people to deposit money into their Hollywood Poker account. For more information on InstaCash, simply check out their website.

How do I use my NETELLER account to deposit money in my Hollywood Poker account, and are there any fees for that?

You can deposit money into your Hollywood Poker account only after you have enabled your account for Real Money play.

When you are enabled for Real Money, simply visit our Hollywood Poker Deposit Page and choose the option to make a deposit using NETELLER. We will not charge you anything if you deposit from or cash out to your NETELLER account from our website. That's right, no fees! Provided the funds are available in your NETeller account, you can deposit money into your Hollywood Poker account immediately: no waiting!

The minimum deposit is $10 and the maximum is $1000 a day.

What about cashing out my Hollywood Poker winnings to my NETELLER account?

Once again, this is a fast, easy, secure process! You simply visit the Cash Out page and make a request to Cash Out to your NETELLER account. The minimum cash out is $5; there is no maximum. Cash Outs generally take about 1 business day to process, and another 2 or 3 business days to be funded to your NETeller account.
