Citadel Casinos  

What is Citadel? 

Citadel is an inexpensive, reliable online payment method using echecks to transfer funds from your personal bank account directly into the casino account of your choice. There are different branches of Citadel in the world and both use echecks. Citadel in the  United States can only be accessed if you have an American bank account. This means US and Canadian citizens are the only two nations who can join. Citadel in the UK can be used by anyone except Americans. Both provide the same service, moving your funds into the online gaming account you would like to credit. No credit cards required. 

How does it work? 

Register on the Citadel website or allow your favourite casino to guide you through the process when you choose the Citadel option on their payment methods page. 

Once you have opened an account you will be authenticated either through photo ID or address confirmation. When they have verified that you are who you say you are, you will be able to fill in an echeck and send it to a Casino. Initially, you will only be able to have up to $500 in your US account, but this will increase when Citadel has finished checking your details. The money will be removed from your checking account and cleared within three days. Citadel outside of America can also do bank transfers and credit card transactions on your behalf. 

How do I get my money out if I win? 

As a transfer service Citadel will deposit your winnings back into your personal bank account from the casino where you won the money. Alternatively, Citadel UK can replace the funds, via direct bank transfers or place them back on your card. Citadel provides convenient, safe and fast access to your money, while you wait. Credit card transactions are charged at a 1.9% fee on your sent or received funds. Your withdrawal limit depends on your payment history. If you have monitored your debts well and the echecks you send are always cleared then your limit can reach as high as $10 000. 

What are the advantages of using Citadel? 

• Echecks are cheaper to send than other forms of payment. For example, if you are charged 1.9% per credit card transaction and the payment is quite substantial you could end up spending a lot of money on fees. Echecks usually have a standard sending fee despite the amount sent. Saving you money.  

• Citadel keeps your personal information private with their advanced encryption software.  

• All day friendly customer service will help you solve any problem with your account.  

What are the disadvantages of using Citadel? 

• You can only access your Citadel casino account on the site where you registered to join.  

• If an echeck bounces at any time your deposit limit may not be increased in the future.  

• There is a marked difference between Citadel commerce in America and Citadel in the UK, make sure you register for the right one.
