Pokerstars 100% Deposit Bonus Question

I deposited 65$ euros so far, but then unfortunately i wanted to deposit more to generate the rest of the bonus but they charge me an extra 5% fee with every deposit. And I don't want to pay that extra 5% fee but still want to finish the rest of the bonus, is there a solution to this?

What deposit method are you using? Some don't have a fee. I use moneybookers.

Yeah, if you use Skrill (aka Moneybookers) you'll only pay fees when you cash out, and that's on Skrill's side, not Stars, and only happens when your skrill currency is not the same as Stars.

Nevertheless, by far the best method to move money around. Forget credit cards, get an e-wallet

Depending on where you live, there should be more options available that don't have fees. Why can't you use moneybookers? I can't tell from your post if you are saying stars won't let you use it or if you can't get a moneybookers account.

What's the fee on e-wallet ? I don't have any fee on my credit card and it goes directly to my bank account in a single click, so I don't see how anything can be better than that.

Obviously that's not an option for the OP.

Was just trying to get dough on Stars too and ran into this issue. Why can't you just deposit directly with your credit card?

my credit card is also blocked (gambling restrictions) lol, yeah so i just realized there were no options for me unfortnuately haha, i tried asking pokerstars if they could just add the bonus in my acc since i have enough funds in my acc but they said no haha was worth a shot though.

Wow, I always thought the only bonus you could receive was one equal to the amount of your first deposit.

Does this mean that I can keep making small ($10 for example) deposits, and they will keep doubling my deposit until I reach the max bonus amount (which I believe is $600)?

You can only make 3 deposits that qualify for the bonus (and no cashouts meanwhile).
