PayPal is owned by E-Bay and based in the US. While Americans may open and use a PayPal account, PayPal does not permit US customers to transfer money to or from poker sites who allow transfers by PayPal. Thus, only those poker players residing outside the USA may utilize this e-wallet to fund poker accounts at PayPal poker sites.

How to Open a PayPal Account
To use PayPal as a deposit option, a poker player should establish a PayPal account. When establishing a PayPal account, the customer will have three options. The player may set up a personal PayPal account, which permits a PayPal customer to shop, pay bills, and play poker online or they may establish a premier PayPal account, which allows a PayPal customer to buy and sell online, in addition to what a personal account will do. Additionally, a PayPal customer may set up a business PayPal account, though it is required that the account holder have a legally established business name to do so.

Once the customer has determined which type of PayPal account they want, the poker player should select the proper country in which they reside. Then, PayPal will take information such as name, address, and telephone number, as well as email address, desired password, and date of birth. Finally, PayPal will ask for funding information. This is where the customer will choose which methods they wish to load or fund their PayPal account with.

After PayPal has been funded, they will request further verification. If a person funds their PayPal account with a personal bank account, PayPal will verify that the bank account belongs to the PayPal account holder. They do this by making two tiny deposits. A PayPal account holder should check his bank for the amount of the deposits, as they will need to enter this information in their PayPal account. Additionally, PayPal may request further documentation during their verification process. This is to protect their customers. Often, each additional level of verification results in higher daily and monthly limits on their PayPal account.

Using PayPal at PayPal Poker Sites
Once the PayPal account is established, funded and verified, a poker player may use PayPal to fund their online poker account, providing they do not live in the USA. Additionally, the player should be certain that the poker site is one that accepts PayPal as a deposit choice. To deposit at a PayPal poker site, a poker player will enter the cashier section of the poker room and find their way to the deposit section.

Upon finding the deposit section of the PayPal poker site, the player should select the PayPal logo. Once a player has entered the PayPal payment screen, they are required to enter the details of their PayPal account. The player should then provide the proper account details to their PayPal poker site's cashier in addition to the amount of money requested. Upon entering and submitting the correct details, the money will transfer from PayPal to the PayPal poker site instantly. Players are then free to hit the cash tables and tournaments of the PayPal poker site.

When cashing out from PayPal poker sites, players simply head to the withdrawal section of the cashier. The poker player should select PayPal as their desired cash out option and enter the amount of money they wish to cash out. Once this information is entered and submitted, the money will typically arrive to the player's PayPal account in two to three business days. From here, a poker player can either find a different PayPal poker site to play on. Additionally, they can move the money to their bank account, request a check, or even use an ATM card to receive their money from their PayPal account.

PayPal makes it easy for players to deposit and cashout at PayPal poker sites. PayPal is a fast, efficient and trustworthy e-wallet service. By using PayPal, players will have access to their money quickly and can move money in and out of the various online PayPal poker sites.
