I don't have suggestion for you. I can only say that like you I have had many problems with using Coinbase for the US poker Rooms - ACR, Betonline & Sportsbetting Poker. I have not been able to deposit or withdraw with Coinbase. There are prepaid virtual cards available and I used that for my transactions they have quite hefty fees. I have since stopped using Coinbase as I found much better non crypto methods. Maybe someone here can suggest a good wallet for you. You can maybe check out the Crypto theard below. Best of Luck.

You need to purchase at Coinbase then send to a wallet then send to ACR
You can also buy at bitstamp or any another place that sells bitcoin but you shoulsd always send it to another wallet before depositing on ACR or any place you buy it from will close your account.
I only use crypto for withdrawing now..


This is a good wallet https://electrum.org/#home

Use a local wallet like Electrum. Purchase coins and then shift them to your wallet. Once you have coins, then you can move them back and forth from any site from your local wallet.

I suggest not using Coinbase, they do not run a good operation and suffer from problems with sending out often taking hours at times.
I have used it in the past, it is not the best option.
Using a local wallet that you control is always your best option.
I deleted my coinbase account after the bitcoin gold insider trading thing, they are just a bad operation.
Stay away from coinbase.
Using Electrum is good for PC, Mycelium is good for android phones.

You can't and shouldn't transfer any crypto currency from coinbase to any online gambling site. It is against their policy do to the fact alot of money londering occurs in online gambling sites. So you are withdrawing from a poker site, withdrawal your cryto currency to a site like blockchain, then transfer it to coinbase, then transfer to paypal or your bank and coinbase wont know where your currency came from. Vise versa if your depositing..

Electrum is a personal wallet just like Blockchain. So you are just incurring extra fees by transferring between the two. To have direct access to your funds, you could obtain a visa Bitpay card and transfer directly from your Electrum wallet to that. Blockchain is no longer able to transfer to bitpay card. The cost for the bitpay card is $9.95 in bitcoin. My last transfer from Electrum to bitpay card was instant, once I increased the miners' fee from $0.39 to $0.49. The card takes about a week to arrive and is used as any debit card is. ATM withdrawals have a $2.00 card fee + ATM fee. Cash back from purchases are free. https://bitpay.com/get-started

This is a decent option I hadn't considered. I've been transferring back to coin base and withdrawing, and the fees can get steep obviously.

So Electrum to the card, there's just the miner fee basically correct?

Easy ...transfer you BTC to other wallet like EXODUS and try with it. Very good wallet or another one too many in the web and good.

Bitcoin vs other deposit methods

Hi Everyone,
I'm mulling over going the Bitcoin route... what do you all think are the advantages vs. Credit card? Is it just more efficient? Do you gain any bonus or additional funds/chips? Thanks Everyone!

All I've gained is a headache.. seriously for me I'm seeing half the methods to buy bitcoins don't allow me as an Australians to sell them so pointless going with them. My credit card issuer has also blocked crypto currency purchases. I'm wondering if I go with one place that eventually my bitcoins will be trapped with no withdrawal methods for me..

I know this is kind of late but DO NOT USE COINBASE. They will ban you for using any coin on gambling services. I suggest wallets like BitGo, Blockchain, Electrum. Coinbase is also known to track bitcoin and if you have gotten the first warning from them then I suggest getting your coin from somewhere else or try to run it through many wallets or a bitcoin tumbler.

This is my concern as well, I am a little lost as to how us Aussie are supposed to deposit and withdrawal on AC.

If anyone knows please let me know

I wonder what other services are being paid for in Digital currencies for them to stop gambling transactions. I'd had thought any kind of use would be welcomed ;)

I've been using a Coinme wallet primarily because they have convenient ATM's in various malls around my region for easy and anonymous cash outs and deposits. They've recently partnered with Coinstar allowing the purchasing of bitcoins with cash even easier at a kiosk in the grocery store or use the4 Coinme atm's in the mall.

Incidentally, in a moment of indiotic naivety, I told Coinme's online chat suppprt exactly wha I aw doing with it, I'm sure the rep was thinking, "I didn't see that I didn't see that." She did a masterful job carefully answering all of my questions without implying that she understood wheat I was using the funds for. haha

Excellent and prompt live customer support during business hours.

Easiest and fastest, deposits and withdraws that I've found.

I use the same for withdrawals: Electrum wallet to Bitpay Card. Agree with all that goodsaint said. However, I can't figure out how to purchase Bitcoin using these. Bitpay says it's compatible with Coinbase for purchasing Bitcoin but I haven't found that to be the case. Could be user error.
