Poker Instant eChecks are a simple way to fund a real money online poker account. It’s essentially the same as using a check to pay your cable bill online. All you need is a checking account with a check handy.
The drawback to Instant eChecks is that some poker sites cap your first eCheck deposit at $100. They do this because when they take an Instant eCheck, they are essentially extending you credit to play with. Until your Instant eCheck clears your bank, they have no way of knowing if they’ll receive the funds. So, to keep losses to a minimum, they cap your first deposit. Once you’ve made a successful Instant eCheck deposit, that cap will be lifted, in lieu of their standard eCheck deposit rules.
