The main difficulty in organizing online payments for online casinos
What exactly is any online payment? This is a technology that allows you to change the owner of money without physically transferring it. When a person makes a purchase, for example, using a bank card, this technology debits the purchase amount from his account and credits it to the seller’s account, excluding the service fees for this transfer. Such a procedure implies a gaining bank that organizes online payments and credits the sale money to its account. If necessary, the gaining bank will convert the buyer’s money into the currency required by the seller.
Since, ultimately, the seller’s money is credited to his bank card, the international payment system (MPS) takes part in the online payment technology, which controls bank cards issued under its auspices. It can be Visa, MasterCard, Mir, etc. In certain cases, MPS may recognize an online payment as illegal and require the gaining bank to return the buyer’s money. This procedure is called a chargeback. Those types of business where the probability of a chargeback is high are called high risk.
Because the fact that the chargeback turns into additional costs for the bank, they offer higher service rates for high-risk businesses. This is preceded by a lengthy verification procedure, which often ends with a refusal to cooperate. The gambling industry, in particular online casinos, is such a highly risky business.
The second reason banks refuse to service online casinos is reputational. It is believed that gambling is something vicious, almost immoral. So, to have a business relationship with such a business is to spoil your image. And for the banking sector, reputation is everything.
What should an online casino do?
First, let us outline our position regarding the gambling industry, in particular online casinos. Gambling, which appeared at the dawn of human history, is an integral part of the lives of tens and hundreds of millions of people. And gambling is neither good nor bad. This is a given. Like sex. It all depends on the organization of these games. If you organize everything in a civilized way, minimize the likelihood of fraud, if you pay taxes, then why is it bad? After all, a person has a physiological need for passion. And if you do not create legal ways for him to satisfy this need, then he will still satisfy it, only this time often illegally. Therefore, we are for a civilized gambling industry.
Our company Wellcoinpay offers its services in organizing Internet payments for online casinos and other companies operating in the gambling industry, for example, bookmakers.

It allows you to transfer up to 4 million rubles a month and keep up to 600 thousand rubles in your wallet.
The type (status) of the wallet depends on the identification method. To receive a professional wallet, you must complete full identification in person. The Qiwi e-wallet number is your phone number.
The disadvantage of Qiwi is the inability to transfer / receive money in foreign currency. This limits the possibilities of playing in foreign online casinos, but you can still find those that cooperate with this system.
