Some players are finding it harder to make casino deposits using their credit cards because their banks are refusing to process the transactions. A lot of that has to do with individual banks, but what can players do instead of changing their bank?

Well, there are a few options to choose from, including online payment companies like PayPal and FirePay.

We thought it would be interesting to see how the two companies stack up against one another by comparing features. It's difficult to get an accurate list of which casinos accept either solution, but casinos that do will have one or both of the icons below on their front page.

And if your favorite casino doesn't accept PayPal or FirePay, tell them they should.
