Web Money Poker

WebMoney is a virtual wallet used by online poker players from around the world as a lightning fast and convenient online payment solution. WebMoney is not like other online payment systems, requiring a software download to facilitate all actions within the eWallet. The software, known as Keeper Classic, or the smaller version, Keep Light, is where the user can uploads funds, withdrawal funds, or make p2p transfers. There's is also a new Keeper Mini version.

Best Poker Sites Accepting Webmoney

After installing the WM Keeper and signing up a free account, users can fund their account via one of the many available deposit options. From there, the user can instantly fund their online poker account at any poker site that accepts WebMoney. The online payment processor is also a viable withdrawal method for online poker players.

WebMoney Accepted Poker Rooms

The popularity of WebMoney as a viable deposit option at online poker rooms as grown immensely in recent months. There are two very well established poker rooms known to accept WebMoney for both deposits and withdrawals.

Web Money Poker Deposits Account Setup

When setting up your new account, you'll first have to choose which version of the Keeper software you want to use.

Keeper Classic ñ Full version of the downloadable software, equipped with all features and the highest security measures; requires Windows PC.
Keeper Light ñ In-browser version of WM Keeper, slightly less features but global OS compatibility.
Keeper Mini ñ The smallest, in-browser version; no download required, but limited purses.

1. After choosing your preferred WebMoney Keeper software, you'll need to fill out your personal information (name, address, date of birth), choose a login and password.

2. You can now create one or more ìpursesî. A purse is a currency-specific virtual wallet. If you plan to do all transactions in a single currency, you'll only need one purse. For international purchases, more purses may be required. Currencies include USD (WMZ), Ruble (WMR), EURO (WME) and Hryvnia (WMU) and more.

3. The user may then deposit into their WebMoney account by purchasing WM-Units or WM Cards. Every $1 is 1 WM-Unit. WM-Cards are convenient as they can be purchased in amounts of $10-$100. Deposits can be made via PaySafeCard, Ukash, Bank Wire or by purchasing WebMoney Pre-Paid Cards (available in Russia).

Total Time From Start To Finish -  About 15 minutes (actual time varies by WM Keeper version selected)

Webmoney Poker Availability

WebMoney is not available to US players to fund online poker room accounts. WebMoney originated in Russia and has since expanded its borders to cover most of Europe and portions of Asia, but is not a viable online poker deposit method in the US or North America.

WebMoney is also not available to Canadian players for online poker account funding. Widely popular in Russia, and slowly expanding to accommodate most of the globe, WebMoney is not a viable online poker deposit method in Canada or North America.

Funding Limits And Fees (Available Countries)

To add funds to your WebMoney account, you can transfer the funds directly from your checking account (bank wire), Ukash, PaySafeCard pre-paid cards or postal money orders. Russians will find WebMoney Pre-Paid Cards available at various retail locations in increments of $10-$100, as well as authorized WebMoney dealers.

There is no additional fee for purchasing WM-Units, depositing at an online poker room, or transferring from one currency purse to another. Withdrawals from your WebMoney account will incur a minimal fee of 0.8%.

Web Money Poker Deposit Support And Security

WebMoney has a good customer support system open 24/7. Users can contact support for technical issues, financial issues and general questions. There are multiple email addresses for each support category, as well as multiple telephone lines for toll-free service to different geographical locations. Unfortunately, there is no live support, and the help pages are perfectly organized (and some are only available in the Russian language).

WebMoney Poker Ease Of Use And Overall Score

We think WebMoney deserves an overall score of 6 out of 10. WebMoney is an incredibly safe, secure and fast deposit method for users in Russia and all over Europe, but its lack of availability in North America draws the low score.
