SafeCharge, a payment solutions provider, has unveiled a new PokerStars-branded prepaid MasterCard that enables poker players in the UK to withdraw and deposit direct to their bank account.

The new card, which was initially rolled out to UK players on 16 April 2015, is expected to be launched into further international markets soon.

Managed by SafeCharge Card Services, the StarsCard will offer PokerStars players a free and well-protected web and mobile account that can be funded by vouchers, bank transfer or a debit card.

In addition, the card can be used to deposit or withdraw money directly to and from a player’s PokerStars account.

With this card, PokerStars customers will be offered a single point of deposit that combines all the convenience of existing options along with added features for cashing out, spending and sending money to friends and family.
