Neteller expected to launch in US for New Jersey online gamblers
Optimal Payments intends to profit from the growing online gaming market in the United States. The company recently announced that it is releasing a new Neteller ewallet service for online gamblers in the United States. They expect the new service will help boost revenues considerably over the next two years.
Many players have encountered problems linking their credit cards and bank to their online gambling accounts. Many financial institutions are still trying to adapt to the newly regulated market. Some are hesitant to allow their customers to make payments to online gambling providers, because they aren't sure what types of payments or institutions are permissible under their states' new gambling laws. Others may be worried that they will be liable if any of their customers are victims of fraud.
Neteller is expected to be a popular service for online gaming customers in the United States. Players will be able to use Neteller to deposit money into their accounts in several different websites. The service will be especially valuable if traditional financial institutions decide against working with online gaming providers in the near future. It is one of the most popular ewallet providers for online gamblers across the world. Optimal Payments already offers Neteller in nearly 200 different countries across the world.
The ewallet was available in the United States before the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act was passed in 2006. The company chose to comply with the law and withdrew from the market. Optimal Payments is excited that online gambling is being legalized in the United States again.
They will offer Neteller in New Jersey, Delaware and Nevada. The service will likely be available in other states that regulate online gambling in the future.
