Bank transfers, also referred to as wire transfers, are a payment method that involves moving funds directly from your bank account to the casino’s bank account by exchanging your account details. These transactions are carefully protected by banks to ensure that your data and money are safe.

Wire transfers are used widely for all kinds of payments, since neither you or the receiver need to have any special accounts or use bespoke technology or payment devices to make the transfer. It's one of the simplest and most straightforward online payment methods currently available to online gambling fans.

Wire transfers are carried out directly between banks and bank accounts, and so they are protected by the banks’ security systems. Banks have some of the strongest, strictest encryptions in place to ensure that their money and that of customers remains where it should. As such, wire transfers are very heavily encrypted and protected as they move from one bank account to another.

This also applies to mobile banking, which is encrypted by the same protocols, and tends to have a 2 or 3-step verification process in place. What some users are not so sure about is the fact they have to share their banking details with the receiver. However, that is done on a secure web page and the data is encrypted by both the casino and the bank, so the chances of it being vulnerable are very low.
