The media coverage of the banning of online casinos in the USA has been ongoing. But the online casino industry doesn’t remain idle. While some US government officials see the recent developments as a big success, it is safe to say that the internet casino industry is in no way going to stop. The US government knows that it is a hard job to ban online casino games from its many US fans, which is why those in the government opposing the online casino industry have chosen some alternatives in which to practice the ban… by forbidding US gamblers from using credit cards in order to take care of their online casino funds.

In that way, the dirty work is handed over to the banks who aren’t too happy with this. However, you don’t have to be a genious to know that there are so many other ways around this. For example, there are the more traditional form of checks and wire transfers to the more advanced forms of payment such as Ecocard which is a virtual debit card and Netteler, both offering a secure and advanced method of payment very popular through the net.

The online casino industry is not based in the US, but scattered safely around the Caribbean, Europe and Central America were privately owned online casino companies don’t seem to be too worried. The World Trade Organization (WTO) is looking at putting pressure on the US government to cancel the new law restraining banks and credit companies from transmitting online casino gambling funds. Their claim is that the new US legislation exempts US based online betting companies from these restraints, while specifically targeting foreign online casinos. Lawyers presenting Antigua and Barbuda even claim that the new laws may bring much complaints from the European Union as well.
