Best Online Betting Guide in India

• More Reliable – One of the main reasons to use an e-wallet from India is its reliability. The other options available offer far lower success rates when depositing and withdrawing. Once you fund your ewallet account, depositing onto online betting sites is fast and easy. This makes the process far less tedious and frustrating. In short, it makes it more enjoyable.
• More Funding Options– Most e-wallets allow several funding options, including credit cards, bank transfers, and some offer funding with checks by mail. This allows the greatest flexibility among all the options.
• Better Privacy– When you make a deposit directly with a betting site, your credit card or bank statement will often show the name of the betting site with that transaction. E-wallets provide a layer of privacy for this because your credit card or bank statements will show only a transaction with the ewallet that you fund and not the betting site. This allows these transactions to be more confidential than more direct methods.
• Shopping Odds and Bonuses– We often recommend opening accounts with more than one betting site. This allows you to shop various odds for sports betting, have access to a greater number of betting options, as well as give you the chance to shop for the best bonus offers. Using an e-wallet such as Neteller and Skrill gives you the option to quickly and safely transfer money between sites using your ewallet in order to get the best value for your deposit and bets.
• Online Shopping– Since these e-wallets are used at online merchants and retailers in addition to betting sites, you can always use your winnings straight from your ewallet to purchase items online without having to deposit it back into your home bank account.

• Set up Process – Setting up an e-wallet can take several days to complete. Much of that time is waiting on verifications, so be prepared for the extra time to create your ewallet account before placing bets. However, after you set up your account, you will discover the time setting up the account was well worth it.
• Fees – There are fees associated with e-wallets. You will find that most betting sites do not charge fees, but the individual ewallets will have some transaction fees. If you fund your ewallet account using a credit card, the fee is usually between 1.75 and 1.9% of the transaction.

However, funding your ewallet by bankwire is usually FREE.

The fees to transfer money from your e-wallet back to your bank account are as follows:

Neteller charges roughly 7.5 EUR for withdrawals. Skrill offers a FREE option through SWIFT transfers, while checks are 194.25 INR, but will come in USD, GBP or EUR.

Credit and Debit Cards

This is the fastest way to deposit for most places around the world. This method is as simple as entering your credit card information into the required fields at the betting site, entering your desired amount of deposit and agreeing to the deposit.

However, due to restrictions within India, using this method can be hit or miss. It can be extremely frustrating to use. If using credit cards is a priority, we recommend using Indio Casino. They have the highest credit card acceptance for Indian players. Keep in mind, they only offer casino deposit options. So if betting on sports and poker is something you are interested in, we still recommend using ewallets. See our guide for credit card deposits.

• Simplicity of using native currently, not having to bother with conversions to figure out value.
• Savings on conversion fees. In many cases there will be conversion fees involved with exchanging INR for other currencies. These can be encountered with your bank, credit card company, and ewallet. You will not have to pay these if you only use Indian rupees.

e-Wallet (#1 Recommended) – For Indians, there is simply not a more dependable method to deposit and withdraw for online betting sites. E-wallets are essentially an online bank account, similar to PayPal. You can deposit money from your home bank to the ewallet and transact to and from betting sites.

The best part is that the records on your home bank account will simply show as a transaction with the e-wallet not the betting site.

It allows for a layer of privacy not offered by the other methods. There are some small fees associated with e-wallets, but for the convenience they offer, it is well worth it. The main drawback to an e-wallet is that the process of setting up the account can take a few days, mostly waiting on verification. The most popular e-wallet in India is Neteller. Others include Skrill (Moneybookers) and Entropay.

e-Wallet – Withdrawing in India is best when using an e-wallet. Because of this, it is typically best to use an ewallet for both transactions (deposit and withdraw). See our section above on e-wallets to learn more about why we recommend it. Neteller is available for withdrawal at all trusted Indian betting sites.

Credit and Debit Cards – If you made a deposit to the site using a debit/credit card, some sites allow you to  withdraw with this method, but it can be even more difficult than depositing. In most cases for Indians, your issuer will reject the transaction.

Bankwire  – This is similar to credit cards in that, while it is technically available to Indians, its success rate varies. Also, you tend to encounter high fees from banks for using it.
