Master Shopping Card
Master Shopping Card
The discrete MasterCard Shopping Card (MSC) is a prepaid MasterCard debit card which can be used anywhere where MasterCard is accepted.

You can use the MasterCard Shopping Card:
o at any MasterCard-enabled POS location worldwide.
o to shop online (any goods or services) where MasterCard is accepted.

You may purchase goods in EUR, USD or any other currency. The Card is issued in EUR and the MasterCard currency conversion will be applied when applicable.

Please note: The MasterCard Shopping Card does NOT come with a PIN code for PIN-based purchases. As a result, the MasterCard Shopping Card cannot be used to withdraw cash from an ATM.

The card is issued by a European bank and may be used to spend your winnings discretely.



Each MasterCard Shopping Card is issued in EUR currency and has a fixed preloaded amount of €100. The shipment fee is USD 20 (for a max number of seven Cards) and the card-issuing fee per card is USD 5. (e.g: if you request 3 cards, your balance must be higher than 100 x 3 (EUR/USD rate)+$20+$15).

If you would like to have a payout using the MSC, please send an email to payments@intertops.eu and let us know how many cards (each preloaded with €100) you would like to receive. Please note that your account balance must cover the withdrawal amount plus the fees.

We will ship the MSC to your postal address under which you have registered your Intertops account via Fedex within 7 working days. Please make sure that your registered postal address is up-to-date.

920$ withdraw between 7 cards ... 55$ in fees, just to withdraw ... if you figure in the juice, u pay 16% for every 920$ ... checks are free right now, but they bounce.

16% is federal f'ing income taxes if u make under 35k a yr

I'm having my own issues with Intertops at the moment, so I too am not pleased with them.

You can try Bovada if you're looking for an alternative. I've experienced near instant withdrawals via MyPayLinQ, but there are some hoops to jump through initially to get started.

I should add that I've heard reports of slow payments from Bovada, but haven't really looked into it because I haven't had a chance to play much lately.

The biggest problem with Bovada is their switch to completely anonymous tables. In addition to KyleB proving they aren't implemented properly, anonymous tables take away a huge aspect of the game IMO.

I'm actually a big fan of the anonymous tables.

I've never been serious enough about online poker to attempt to play on a deep enough level where I could use a person's identity to my advantage.

I have no idea who KyleB is and I haven't heard anything about the anonymous tables not being implemented properly, but then again I haven't spent an ounce of energy reading anything about Bovada lately.

... some people would say that playing behind a computer screen takes away from the game, i wouldnt mind annymonus tables. I would actually perfer it, fight all the douche bags using poker tracker
