Go to the grocery store, buy a Green Dot Money Pak. I've used them on youbet since the UIGEA went into effect with no problem.

With twinspires you can set it up to do an EFT from your bank account. The money shows up in your twinspires account within minutes. There are no charges assessed on either end of the transaction. I believe you will have to download and sign a form from twinspires and then send a voided blank check - but after that you should be good to go.

Do you have to buy a new Green Dot card every time you get down to zero?

Mastercard still can be used fairly reliably for funding at You Bet or Twin Spires.

Green Pack money cards have a one time $4.95 fee and cannot be reloaded though they are extremely easy to find at 7-11's or CVS pharmacies to name a few of the many places they are available.

Twin Spires is going to a one time $5 fee for all credit card transactions very soon rather than the 3.92% or thereabouts.

It all seems to change monthly lately.....

If you in the Mid-atlantic or Southeast the bank BB&T work fine with their debit and credit cards for Twin Spires and Express Bet.

Thank you. I am always tempted to buy one and fund my account when there is a CVS rebate, but I would hate to have a useless card with 5 cents on it
