ewalletxpress seems like a decent way to get money into a number of casinos (not FT or PokerStars unfortunately). Looks like a free way to transfer money between casinos. Looks like it's been around for at least a year. Looks like getting your money back is 10% off the top (that hurts). Am I missing anything? Withdrawing is not cheap. Please share your experience good or bad. I hate to give my checking account to just anyone. Thanks ahead.

I have avoided this place for the very reason you stated: 10% is just too much.

However, a small bit of advise (which you may be doing already, in which case disregard the following). I would never give your normal checking account info to anyone. Go and open a seperate checking acct (every bank has free ones), and use that as your 'poker account'. I never keep any money in that account--I just go down to the bank and withdraw when I know the funds hit. Just one more 'firewall' against anything silly happening.

I think a dedicated checking account is good advice. In fact I tried to use an electronic account that I use for questionable internet businesses. ewalletxpress refuses to deal with electronic banks. They insist on a paper check to open the account. Isn't that rich, an e-wallet won't do business with an e-bank.

I was thinking I could always leave most of my funds a Bodog and withdraw for free. I'd just move enough to to ewallet when I wanted to to move $25 to Carbon or IronPrince, etc.
This is a UIGEA thing. I just want to get a non-US money source.
