Why does my Credit Card not work at iBingo?
iBingo is classified as an Online Gambling Merchant. Some banks (mainly US) will disallow us to process your
credit card even though you have available credit.
What can you do?
In some cases a quick call to your bank may straighten this out as they can lift the restrictions for your
card alone. Another option is to use our alternate credit card processor listed as Credit Card via Meggacity or one of our 3rd
party processors
like Equinox Instant Credit.
What is a 3rd party processor?
3rd party processors provide the fastest and most secure way to transfer cash online. They are in the business
to protect you and your personal information when you do purchases on the Internet. These companies are in the business
to provide you with an electronic wallet for Internet purchase and you
should have no problem using your Credit Card with them.
Do I get charged more to do this?
In most cases, there is NO charge to you to send us payments via a 3rd Party Processor.
Who do you recommend?
We recommend all of the 3rd party processors that we accept payments from, each has proven to be of the highest integrity.

Why do ads popup when I play flash bingo?
If unwanted webpage ads are popping up when you play flash games, you may have a parasite. We at ibingo do not
push unwanted advertising to our customers. The latest Internet annoyance is parasites. A parasite is introduced onto your
computer because you downloaded a seemingly innocent software program. This program has attached to your browser a parasite. The
function of the parasite is to watch which websites you go to and Pop Up an appropriate ad. For more information
