When you purchase an Allaccess card make sure to get the gift card not the rechargeable card. If you accidently purchase the rechargeable card remember the card company charges you $1.00 each time you use it. So if you purchase a $50.00 card it will not work on poker sites that have a $50.00 minimum because the card is only worth $49.00. The gift card does not have that problem. I've been there because my son gave me a rechargeable card for $50.00 -- I was able to use it on pokerstars because their minimum is $10.00. Good Luck

so this visa all access card works at any site that accept Visa? And the reason that people use it is b/c regular credit cards get denied if used for gambling?

That is correct. I just depositied on FullTilt with an all Access pre-paid card. Bought it in the supermarket, registered it online, deposited money. It is that simple.

We can't confirm if it works at EVERY site as we don't have any confirmation of the sort. It is probably true and would feel confident trying it, however unless you have a sight in mind that you post here and someone can verify it, then nothing is guaranteed, obv.

I would like to confirm that these worked for both Stars and FullTilt last week (opened accounts for Mrs AG at both).

At the store I went to I only saw $25 all access visa cards. There was another all access visa card where you could load a specific amount, but it said reloadable on it.

Are there non-reloadable all access visa gift cards with set amounts higher than $25?


Can I use the reloadable all access visa card on full tilt?

Just do yourselves a favor, and when you buy a Visa giftcard, make sure it has the logo as seen below. They all look very similar, but if it doesn't have that logo, don't bother.

I made the mistake of picking up a card today that I "thought" was all-access. Turned out it was a Visa giftcard form giftcardmall.com or some crap. Looked almost identical to the all-access, sans the logo. Got home, didn't work, had to take it back and make sure to get the right one. :rolleyes:

Wrong. You only pay the $4.95 once to buy the non-reloadable gift card. There are NO per transaction fees for international ATM charges or any other deposit charges on the non-reloadable card.


The key here is to get onto TAB #2. Otherwise you wind up with a reloadable card and that is something you don't want. Or to wind up in the same place with the same card anyway, avoid mistakes by going directly to http://www.allaccessgift.com.

I just got off the phone with Full tilt and they said to buy a re-loadable card.....I'm very confused could you explain to the best of your knowledge and also how do they give you your winning with a gift card

Don't know about the reloadable one, as the last time I made a deposit on FT was when I could still use neteller. But I would hope that their support would know what they're talking about. As for withdrawal, you would get it via check.

Afraid I can't help you there. It's entirely up to you. I say if you already have an ePassporte account, go that route.

the store you buy an all access card makes a difference. 7-11 type of store if the 16 year old clerk doesnt have a clue. might not activate it right, happened to me. otherwise they work most of the time if you register it online, and if it doesnt call the number on the website, and a friendly person with an accent will fix it.

I just used an all access reloadable card on full tilt.

I chose to by a reloadable one because the highest non-reloadable at the nearest store to me is $50. If you are adding a significant amount, for me $500, it would make no sense in the world to get ten $50 non-reloadable cards. $500 is the max you can load on the card I bought.

You can deposit money on full tilt via the all access card and cash out via epassporte, as long as you have made at least one deposit using epassporte before.

i read somewhere (not sure where) that some people were having trouble using even the preloaded giftcards. According to what I read, someone from New York couldn't get it to work so he asked a poster who said it had worked for him where he lived. So he changed the registered address on the card to a state that "allows" gambling (don't explicitly ban it). Now it worked. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Again, this has not been confirmed by me.

I am in NY and had no issues. Honestly, I am suspicious of user error whenever anyone claims any problems.

The reloadable ones only get that 9.95 a month fee if you sign up for the "advantage plan". Otherwise they are 10 bucks when you first buy them and that is because they send you a card with your name on it. Then the normal fees at ATMs etc apply.

Another thing is when people are trying to use them and are getting an error, drop the price down a dollar because Netspend charges a dollar fee. So if you have 50 on the card and it wont work, try 49.

To the best of our knowlege, the ALL ACCESS VISA GIFT CARD still works.

Make sure you get the non-re-loadable one. You might have to do any or all of these things to make it work;

1, Wait a while after you purchase one. Delays of a couple of hours before they work are not unheard of.

2, Verify the card online, or via the phone number on the back.

3, If you try it and it fails, wait a while, then try again.

4 Please post back here with your results.

This is pretty much the story and the hassels sometimes...

:confused: I read the posts on using Visa all access cards and was wondering if they still work to open an account at PokerStars? If not, what would be the cheapest way to go. I hate the idea of paying a fee to a third party just to open an account.

I hope this is the right place to post this question.

Best to buy the $100 one and pay the $5.95 and get it over with...

Yep you're almost 6% plus your post before you play you first hand...

Thank your Republican buddies in congress many of whom play poker for defending freedoms and getting a law passed to make it difficult for you to enjoy them...

Interesting to note that they biggest hero Richard M. Nixon enjoyed the game...:D

OK for people who want a simple explanation:

1. You want to get the "ALL ACCESS VISA GIFT CARD". Do not get the reloadable one.

2. Go to this website ; https://www.netspend.com/

3. Click on the "GIFT CARD" tab in the dead center of the web page. It will bring up some information, and you will see a small form box to put in your zip code. Put it in and hit "Search Zip Codes"

4. You will be given a list of local places (you will find most to be grocery stores and gas stations) that carry the ALL ACCESS VISA GIFT CARD. Wha-la. Buy it, use it, play poker and lose money to me.

Why not get the reloadable one? You can use it over and over (hopefully you dont have to), you can use it for regular purchases, and you can withdrawl to it...

I brought my gift2go card from Walgreens, registered it (even thought I never had too before) and it still doesn't work on FT..but it did work for me on sportsbook.com
b
ut I cant stand there poker room and lost my $50...

Not sure why it wouldn't work on FT....

So I wanted to try one more time and got a $100 gift card - and its not working on FT once again...not sure what to do because I really don't like any other site....

any ideas?

The weird thing is, the card does not get declined it just comes back with an error - "We can not processes your transaction at this time. Please try again later."

Well the AllAccess card works on Stars, I know that for sure. Is that the one that you have? Also why not try your luck on Stars, it is as good as FT (better imo).
