I have been using visa gift2go gift cards for quite a while now on pokerstars and all of the sudden it is getting declined, did something happen? What other gift cards will work?

Gift2Go, the company, are the people who stopped letting you use those cards for gambling / poker sites.

They actually only started on Monday (6 days ago).

Options are getting smaller and smaller :(

(I also used Gift2Go cards)

I used to use the All-Access Visa. You should give that a try

Gift2Go is some times called All-Access Visa but there are ones that are also "All-Access Visa" but aren't made by Gift2Go. Those do still work but I don't think they have them at walgreens but they do have them at gas stations.

Go to http://www.allaccessvisa.com to find out where they sell them in your area.

hate to say I told you so but well I did, eventully they will all get declined which is why I use moneygram since that can not be declined seeing as there is no 3rd company Im dealing with. Well there is but moneygram really could care less who its getting sent to.

I never ever have a problem with them and $10 is not that big of a service charge at all when im sending $300+ most of the time. Stars and Tilt both accept it so why the heck not?

How long does the gram thing usually take per cashout?

cant cash out with it, you just have them send you a check. That depends on site, usually stars is pretty good .

as for how long it takes for moneygram to show on account that is very very fast. What you do is while you are home you enter the screen and put how much you want to deposit, stars sends you email showing you exactly how to fill out form, now you can print your email if you like or write down how to fill out feilds. Go to your local moneygram agent (there are tons of them) and fill out form which takes couple minutes. By the time you drive home the money will be on your account. I live like 20 minutes away so it takes 20 minutes for whole process. NOT BAD AT ALL.

Wow, it's been quite a while since I've had to deposit. This really, really sucks.

I guess until I start kicking some ass in our freerolls, my online poker career is done :(

I was planning on picking one of these up to deposit some on Stars. Do the all-access ones still work as long as they arent Gift2Go? Theres some Sunoco stations near me that sell the All-Access Cards that dont say Gift2Go on them.

I deposit using wired plastic visa. You load it through moneygram/westernunion. 3.93 a load. I withdraw to my epassporte. They will always be accepted, they're made for online use. They might even have a referral program where both get cash if anybody wants me to check

there will always be options to deposit online if you take the effort to look for them.

I think the key question is, has anyone successfully used an All Access Visa since last Tuesday (7/10). That is when the 270 days of the UIGEA went into effect.

good point, I actually have not tried moneygram since then but seeing as it doesnt go through a bank at all don't think it will affect it.


as for the visa's yes they are prepaid but they still have to go through a bank transaction when sent.

gift2go

ive found that the only site that lets you use the gift2go cards now is PlayersOnly. its really easy and the cash games are easy to win. my only complaint is that there is a lack of good SnG's. too many kamakazie tourneys. the skill level is beyond sub-par on this site though.:icon_sant
