Click2pay if you are in canada you use CND$. When you make a deposit it's in Canadian dollars. When you transfer $50 US$ to chan poker they will say it's $51.50 (or whatever) out of your account. When you cash out of Chan poker the $50 they will pay you out at $49 (or whatever) cnd back into your click2pay. They rape you on the exchange. They need to add moneybookers to their line up then i'm in. The only reason I transfered to poker trillion was because of the CPF partnership.
I think the best bet (if you have one) is a TD Visa. They are working on adding more payment options, but since it is the network that makes these decisions they are out of their control.
I personally have never used click2pay, so I don't really know how it works and can't comment on their product, but I do hate Moneybookers... A few months ago my account was somehow hacked. I had only used the account 2 times, it was less than a month old, and I know all about phishing schemes and never answered any emails. A total of 6 transactions of over $100 went from my account to a company in India all within a period of about 1 minute (if you have ever done a transaction with them you will know that each one takes at least 2 minutes). I tried contacting their support numerous (which is a joke - only 9-5 and no emergency number) times (paid the hefty long distance charges) sent emails to their security (which took weeks to get a response) and got no help from anyone there!
After about 10 phone calls and over 50 emails they finally credited my account with 2/3 of the money that went out and claimed that the other company had agreed to refund this money. I was out a few hundred, wasted countless hours, and got nowhere. I will NEVER deal with Moneybookers again, and I strongly suggest you consider this when leaving large amounts of money in your account with them. When s*#t hits the fan, their support is useless!
Ongame only allows one account per email address... ie. if you have created an account at Mansion with one email address, then you can't create another account at another Ongame site with the same email address. As far as the click2pay, I haven't heard of any issues using it even if the email is different from the email the account was registered with.
Not true. I have 3 Ongame accounts all with the same address.

Hollywood poker (Ongame) has had Moneybookers for a long time.
It is the same as PokerRoom... got this from another site:
"In order to unlock the bonus, you will be required to earn player points. You will be able to earn up to 3 player points per hand at the cash tables and a total of 5 points for every $1 in tournament fees.
You will need to earn 10 points for every one dollar you have in Chan Poker bonus. As you can see, this money will require a bit of playing time to release. Of course the higher limits you play and the more you multi-table, the quicker your Chan Poker promo code money will be released."
There is more info on how to get the points in our Chan Poker Review (bear in mind the review is still pretty rough and needs some more work)

Thats the thing with click2pay is that they are supposed to use the exchange rate and not take a fee out of it. I haven't checked closely with my transactions to see if that was the case, but that was a selling point to using their service.
I do remember something about different email addresses for ongame, thus my hollywood was different than my pokerroom email. Since Mansion was moved they may have made an exception.
I assume there is no rakeback, bonuses for the funds transferred through CFPs?
Unfortunately Ongame no longer allows rakeback (apparently some old accounts still get it). Also, there are no bonuses on CPF transfers since Chan Poker is already paying for these it would be too expensive to give a bonus on top of it.
Hi Stashglow here just letting you know I downloaded Chan Poker from your banner and opened up an account there.. My alias is Stash_glow.. Is there any incentive for me.. See ya at the tables...

Guess I need to stick with good old TDVisa and cash out by cheque, so I only pay one way for the exchange.
Thats what I've been doing. Annoying but whatever.
For people that might beed a TDVisa, use this one

No annual fee + approx. 1% cashback rebate...its not much but it adds up over time.

8x is being created as we speak, should have it to you by tomorrow! Anything else you need, let me know.

Cheers
Sorry Graham, and sorry to me as well I suppose.
Is there a code needed, or do we get 8x by joining with the link on the forum?
The code is
canada8
He told me it was ready, but I would like to confirm with him again just to be safe. If you want you can give it a try.
Promo Code: canada8 - 100% Deposit Bonus up to $1000 at 8x
Is there any way to get the 8X retroactively? I signed up Monday night with the regular canada code.
Yep, confirmed with him also... good luck!
Unfortunately not... the cashier is all controlled by ongame. Sorry, I don't think its a huge difference though.
25%?
