For Immediate Release
SPORTBET.COM NOW ACCEPTING PERSONAL CHECKS
San Jose, Costa Rica, January 24, 2003?Sportbet.com has just announced the launch of a new payment method that it feels will shortly become its most popular method of deposit.
Getting approvals on credit cards has become increasingly more difficult over the past year. While other deposit methods such as Neteller, Western Union and PrePaid ATM have become popular alternatives, many customers prefer the ease of using a credit card.
According to Jake Slater, General Manager of Sportbet.com, ?The great thing about Personal Checks is the ease of use. You take a check from your personal checking account, type a few numbers from that check into the deposit form, and you wait for approval. It?s that easy.?
Once a transaction has been approved, the funds will be taken directly out of your bank account. For new customers, this typically takes five days for the first check to clear. Once a customer has a prior betting or check processing history with the company, transactions are completed the same day.
?We?ve been pleasantly surprised by the sudden success of our eCheck option,? added Slater. ?I really think people are excited with just how quick and easy it is. It is just like using a credit card online. In fact, we?ve even had to staff extra customer service and account representatives just to handle the volume of deposits.?
In conjunction with the launch of eChecks, Sportbet.com (www.sportbet.com) is offering a 20% cash bonus for all new accounts and a 15% cash bonus for all existing accounts.
