    Are there any sites that offer blackjack and paypal payments?
    This is definitely something that I would be interested in.
    Thanks,

    I can understand gambling sites preference for credit cards since they add some confidence to the fact that the player should be over 18. PayPal accounts can be credited using Switch/Solo so the user might be under 18 (do paypal confirm your age some how?).

    Although I think the real reason that micro payment systems haven’t been fully embraced yet is just because they’re a recent development and need more time.

    PayPal is just too dodgy if you are doing big gambling transactions I guess - People can do charge backs and all sorts of stuff that are a pain in the butt for any legitimate business.

    But that said, PayPal would be good for those of us who would use it properly

    i believe in 2001, paypal outlawed the use of paypal funds to pay for gambling online. you won't find anything online unless the gambling online site is very sneaky...
    the reasons they cited were manifold - primarily ethical, etc... but my guess is that so many fraudulent payments were made and so many paybacks and stuff... a business hazard i'd say.

    here, check out this link - looks like it was actually 2002... and to me it looks like they just found it a difficult business to be a part of.. http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,53703,00.html
