EcoCard will cease allowing its e-wallet to be used by US customers for online gaming transactions near the end of August. I suggest that all US players make a withdrawal of all funds in their EcoCard accounts by August 20 — just as a precaution against something akin to the NETeller problems that we all just had to go through.

eWalletXpress is an e-wallet available to US players. And here are a variety of sites that accept this e-wallet and that accept US players from all states.

• Bingo: World Bingo Club – 200% bonus on your 1st deposit over $20 (no max)
• Casino: Superior Casino – 100% bonus on your 1st deposit between $25 and $250
• Poker: Rumble Poker – 100% bonus on your 1st deposit between $50 and $100
• Sportsbook: USDBET - Use bonus code OCGDMEDL to claim an exclusive bonus

Citadel Commerce provides payment processing solutions and other related services to online merchants. Earlier this week, they announced that US $9.25M of their reserve funds had been seized by the United States Department of Justice. Citadel states in the press release that they are “continuing to work with the DoJ through its legal counsel to resolve the situation.”

There was no word on the US DOJ site with any additional information about the seizure.

EcoCard is an e-wallet solution available to all players and is gaining in popularity. There are now a handful of online casinos that accept all US-based real-money players and accept EcoCard for deposits and withdrawals. As of this writing, here is the current list of Microgaming online casinos that accept EcoCard and that accept all players from all states (as well as from many other countries, of course). My personal recommendation: All Jackpots Casino with their bonus offer of Buy $50 Get $200 FREE.

I’ve already signed up for an account at YouTeller, anticipating that they will capture a large part of the market that was left underserviced by NETeller’s withdrawal from the United States market last month.
