Skrill
Description
Skrill was founded on June 18, 2001 in London. The first ten years of its existence, it was called MoneyBookers, and in 2011 there was a rebranding. One of the main areas of Skrill's work is the service of payments in the field of gambling. That is why the company takes a leading position among online poker players, online casinos and sports betting enthusiasts.
Registration at Skrill
Signing up for Skrill is easy but there are few things to keep in mind:
- Always answer honestly the question "will the account be used for gambling." An affirmative answer does not impose any additional obligations or restrictions on you.
- Always enter only real data.
- Remember that account currency can only be selected once upon registration.
- Indicate your real mobile phone number.
- Be ready to undergo in-person verification by webcam.
Deposit and withdrawal
The main deposit methods are
- VISA/MasterCard cards
- Bitcoin
- Transfer through a bank account
Of course, the most popular way to replenish account is credit cards. Deposits are processed instantly. Skrill also allows users to send money between themselves, and if you suddenly decide to cheat and don’t replenish your account asking a friend to send you money with an ordinary Skrill to Skrill transfer, then you need to know the following thing. By default, Skrill charges a transfer fee of 1.45%, (no less than €0.50) when replenishing a wallet through a card or bank transfer. However, if you replenish your account via NETELLER, paysafecard or BitPay, you will receive a higher one-time commission of 10%, (no less than €100). At the same time, for all subsequent Skrill to Skrill transfers, you will pay 2.99% commission.
