So I am looking to make my first deposit on RPM and my options are quite limited... I have VISA/click2pay/usemywallet/cash transfer.

Visa has been cracking down, out of the question.

click2pay isn't taking any new registrations or something.

usemywallet, I've heard people mention they dislike wallets as well and it looks like you fund the wallet through credit cards.

cash transfer looks like either cash or credit card.

Is there no bank account option? If not I'm kind of screwed here unless I do the cash transfer option... just seems kind of tedious.

What are you other US players using to deposit on merge?

I used a debit card... I have quite a few credit and debit cards, and I just try them on a poker site until one works. Was only on my 2nd card before it worked.

I got in touch with RPMJon and used his suggestion of trying Visa anyway. 2nd attempt went through.

I was afraid to go with Visa because at some point last year I tried to deposit onto stars with a Visa Check Card from my bank. Not only was it declined, but Visa locked the card out for using it for online gambling until I called them to get it lifted.

Visa Debit from a credit Union works the best. Stay away from the big bank cards, they don't work alot of the time.

Western Union was pretty easy for me.

looks like im having the same issue. Tried entropy and they wanted a copy of my ID, utility bill etc...screw all that work just to play some online poker.

Anyone had luck with buying a visa gift card at like a gas station or somethin?

I got 3 visa cards and all have been denied. what a joke

E-check worked great for me.

There was an initial 48 hour or so wait period for the initial setup but been good for me so far. Last deposit was late feb early march.

*edit
I see e-checks are no longer an option. That blows...

I have given up trying to put money on this site. No reflection on what RPM is; just too much of a hassle to load money on to it. I will play on other sites til the $$ runs out then I will address it

Why not P2P transfer if u have funds on other sites.. I think the easiest option is quicktender..but I wouldnt keep any money there...just use it for moving from site to site.

How much was the fee and does RPM refund it to you?

Ok i was finally able to get a deposit through by using western union. After I bought a visa gift card too. So the fees added up to 25$ but hopefully it will be worth it from all the good things i hear!

Get required info from RPM, go to WU and send money to RPM.

I use the All-Access Netspend Visa card that is reloadable. Never had a problem with it so far, worked on a few different sites.

I always wondered about these and didn't know if they worked or not. I'll have to look into one

easiest way is to use your debit/credit to buy amazon gc, trade for ftp/stars, then trade for rpm.

UMW worked great for me, but I was told by someone else that RPM won't let you register for UMV unless you have already made a deposit before. So for those who never deposited before gonna have to try WU I guess. I hate the fact that Click2Pay isn't letting people register.

Only options for me right now (in Texas) are Visa, Click2Pay, UseMyWallet, and Western Union. eChecks used to be there, but has been removed recently. From what other posters have said, Visa is a crapshoot, C2P isn't accepting new registration, not sure about UMW. WU will probably be it for me if I decide to deposit.
