Instant Checks, commonly referred to as eChecks is quickly becoming one of the favourite options for USA poker players. This option provides you with the ability to fund your poker or casino account without having to create a secondary account with another company, nor do you need to leave the casino or poker room to do so. You will not need to wait a few days for your funds to be made available to you since this option is instant cash right on the spot and there are no fees associated with this option. As of to date only a handful of online poker rooms and casinos are offering this option for players to use.
What is an eCheck
An eCheck is a check you would write from your bank account but is digital. It is processed online so there is never a paper copy and is 100% secure. eChecks are equipped with the same security features as your regular checks if not more such as digital fingerprints, encryption among other methods to provide you with total security.
Depositing With eChecks
If this is an option you would like to use, simply click the
eCheck
Poker Casino logo within the cashier lobby. From here you will need to provide the poker or casino site with details of your bank account. This information includes routing number, financial institution, bank account number and some form of identification, either social security number, drivers license and/or passport. The ID is required to protect the poker or casino room from fraud as well as yourself.
After you have provided them with your details you can begin to use your account. Just enter the amount you wish to deposit along with the answer to your security information and within a matter of seconds the funds will be added straight to your player account. As long as the funds are available in your bank account and your payment clears without any problems you will be able to use this method multiple times throughout the week.
eChecks do have restrictions in place simply because the poker and/or casino site is providing you with the cash upfront while waiting for the check to clear. After you have built a reputation with the room, these restrictions will begin to lighten up allowing you to deposit more frequently.
