Not only is Visa a trusted brand, but all of the bookmakers that take the card as a form of payment use 128 Bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption technology, which means your personal and financial information is totally secure.

Making Visa withdrawals at online bookies

While Visa is accepted for deposits at all Australian online bookmakers, and pretty much all around the world, making withdrawals with the well-known credit card is a different matter. There are some bookmakers that accept Visa as a withdrawal method, but not many. This is because several of the major banks in Australia have restrictions in place when it comes to using a Visa card for the withdrawal of funds from an online bookmaker account.

Bet365 is one sports betting site that supports withdrawals and deposits with Visa cards. Most bookies prefer to make payments with standard bank transfers, while some also have branded cashout cards that can be used at ATMs.

Other drawbacks to betting with Visa cards

As above, the main drawback to using Visa cards for gambling is that most online bookmakers in Australia do not accept it as a withdrawal method. Sometimes, to prevent credit card fraud, the bookmaker will require you to send them a scanned copy of your Visa – a minor inconvenience for the sake of security, but an inconvenience nonetheless. For most Australian bookmakers, there is no fee when making deposits into your account, but there are some banks that will apply a cash advance fee, which is very small.

Do Visa bookies charge transaction fees?

There are typically no fees when depositing money into an online betting account, but banks may ask for a small cash advance. There are also limits for deposits and withdrawals when using a Visa card and they will vary from bookmaker to bookmaker.

A short history of Visa

Visa’s story began in 1958 when the Bank of America began to issue credit cards to people in the state of California as part of the BankAmericard program. In 1965 the bank began making agreements with other banks outside California to issue credit cards. In the 1970’s BankAmericard was available all throughout the United States and in 12 countries and in 1974 IBANCO, a multinational member corporation, was established to manage the worldwide BankAmericard program. To bring all of the networks into one global one, in 1976 the BankAmericard card was changed to VISA USA and IBANCO was turned into Visa International. The name Visa was chosen as an internationally known word that would suggest the card would be universally accepted. ‘VISA’ stands for Visa International Service Association.
