Probably you'd check deposit (and withdrawal) options of the all poker rooms (you're using) then cause this way you'd understand which ones do it and which ones dont ...

I'm pretty sure that i've seen some who offer exactly that ^ but they (for example pokerstars) only do it for certain location(s) which is quite shame lol

Different sites use different methods of depositing and withdrawing funds. But in my opinion, now the most convenient and popular method is cryptocurrency.

I know that William hill poker offers the PayPal option, but they don’t accept players from my country anymore, I think they accept Canadian players.

Unibet,888 and Pokerstars Paypal processor works.

I’m trying on PokerStars and PayPal isn’t working. Stars support is saying my bank is blocking it. Thought legalizing it in Pennsylvania would make things easier. Apparently not..

Assuming you are doing this from pokerstars.pa, it may be bank specific. I believe there are state banks as well as national banks in the States? If this is the case, are you trying to do this through a national bank? You might be able to open an account with a state based bank that might be more poker site friendly.

That’s a very good idea and I hadn’t thought of that, but I’ll unfortunately only be in PA for a few days. Just seems so overbearing for a bank to not allow me to use my own money on an activity legal in the state. I hear there’s an option to deposit with cash through PA 7-11s, but the idea of walking into a 7-11 and pulling out $1,000+ cash seems even riskier than depositing in some shady offshore site. Haha.

Looked into Skrill but it takes up to 5 days apparently with a $500 cap. Pretty upsetting that even after the Black Friday cloud is partially lifted we still have to jump through hoops.
