How to Use Western Union
New accounts have a verification process when it comes to wanting to send money online. This takes a few days to complete,
as they mail you an authorization number in the snail mail. That doesn't mean you can't play while you wait.
As previously mentioned, there are plenty of agent locations all over the world that you can use to send money in minutes.
When you choose Western Union in the poker room cashier, you will be given information regarding where to send the monies
to fund your poker account. This includes the name of the receiver, address and telephone number. You can usually get these
from support as well. Once you send the money to the receiver you will be given an MTCN (Money Transfer Control Number)
which you must keep to give to the poker room so they can verify your payment.
Once you activate your account, there are a few ways to send money. You can use a credit card, which is the most popular method,
or you can use an ECheck debited from your bank account. The credit card transaction will be sent immediately, where the ECheck
will take a few days to clear your bank.
After your payment is verified by the poker room your monies and all available bonus offers will be credited to your account.
This process can take up to 24 hours at some rooms, but the majority of Western Union deposits can be verified in as little as 30 minutes.
Summary
There is no better or easier way to pay for American players. With the government cracking down on deposit methods and processors,
Western Union is the smartest and most convenient way to play. There are numerous agent locations and the availability to send from your home.
There is no reason not to use Western Union for your next online poker deposit and the possibilities are limitless. For more information
