How to deposit and withdraw money from your Neteller account

There are many ways to top up a Neteller wallet for clients from around the world, so everyone can find the one that is convenient for them personally.

Ways to top up Neteller:

From a bank card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro).
Bank transaction.
From your Skrill wallet. Commission - 3%.
Qiwi, Yandex Money. Commission - 8%.
Bitcoin. Commission - 1%. (How to buy Bitcoin).

It is best to top up your Neteller wallet in Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia directly with a Visa, MasterCard or Maesto bank plastic card. Commission - 1.9%. The card must have the 3-D Secure service activated to perform secure transactions on the Internet.

All possible methods of depositing money provided by the Neteller payment system can be seen in your personal account in the “Account replenishment” section:

By bank transfer.
Payment on a website that accepts Neteller (Merchant Sites).

To withdraw or deposit, you can use online exchangers (Magneticexchange). With their help, it is easy to exchange Neteller for other popular electronic money - Qiwi, Perfect Money, Yandex.Money, Bitcoin and others. More on this below.

Neteller profile verification

You can use the e-wallet anonymously, but it is better to go through verification. What it will give the user:

Increased security level, which is especially important if you operate large amounts;
Increasing limits on transactions in the service;
Registration of a Neteller payment card;
Reduce the risk of blocking.

To pass identity verification, you must first top up your virtual account with any amount. Account confirmation occurs as follows:

From the menu on the left, select Settings, then Account Verification.
If you have a Facebook profile, you can enter it to verify your information. If you do not register on a social network, simply skip this step.
At the next stage, you need to attach identification documents to the system. To do this, you can use the Neteller mobile application or upload files directly from your personal account on the website. You will need to take a legible photo of your passport and attach your own photo. The user should have a piece of paper in his hands with the word Neteller and the current date written on it.
Then a check will follow, the duration of which the payment system does not say anything about. But you can proceed to the next verification step only after confirming your personal data.
If you previously allowed your location to be determined, you will not need to provide an address. However, you can share it through the browser at this stage. If for some reason you do not want to provide access to geolocation or technical problems arise, you can attach documents that indicate your address (utility bills, passport page with registration).

This completes the verification process. All that remains is to wait for the account status to change in your personal account, about which you will receive a separate email. An account can be approved or unverified.

Unconfirmed status is assigned to the user immediately after registration and allows you to pay for online orders or send funds to other people. Transaction limits are $500, $1,500, and $2,000 depending on the country. If your account exceeds the amount, you will be required to urgently undergo account verification. Until this moment, the account will be blocked. The service is silent about limits for verified accounts.

Deposit or withdrawal of Neteller through an exchanger

Among all the options for withdrawing funds from Neteller, which are available in Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, the best one is a bank transfer or payment on another site. Only clients from Russia can order and withdraw to a card from Neteller - Net+Prepaid MasterCard. There is no withdrawal to bank cards or other payment systems. As you can see, there are very few options left. But you can try to use exchangers that work in the direction of exchanging from a Neteller account to other payment systems, but there are not very many such services.

Withdrawal from Neteller through Magneticexchange exchangers. You need to select the currency that is given (Neteller) and received, and the direction (Sberbank, EXMO exchange, AdvCash, Payeer, Yandex.Money, Perfect Money, Okpay, Moneypolo or other payment systems). The commission depends on the direction and amount, for example, when exchanging Neteller for AdvСash USD it is 5–6%. The exchange operation is carried out automatically within 5 minutes, but conditions apply - you need to confirm your identity, account, and Neteller must be verified. All this is due to the fact that Neteller is a “white” payment service that operates within the strict legal framework of the regulator.

Pros and cons of Neteller

Advantages and disadvantages of Neteller
For those who use Neteller to pay for gambling and forex services, the payment system is almost irreplaceable.

Benefits of Neteller

Note that Neteller is also a convenient e-wallet to use. There are applications for iOS and Android.

More than a hundred services (Forex, cryptocurrencies, gambling) accept Neteller, so the client will always have the opportunity to find the most suitable one without having to transfer funds to the account of another payment processor.

Neteller is a global electronic wallet system whose services are distributed in more than 200 countries.

Transferring funds within Neteller to the merchants' website is carried out without commission. Such fees are reimbursed by sellers, not customers.

Verification is not mandatory (but without it, you can only withdraw funds to a mobile phone).

VIP membership provides the client with more favorable terms of interaction with the service, including a loyalty program, refunds, commission refunds, multi-currency accounts, lower exchange fees, higher limits, etc.

Buying, selling and making payments in cryptocurrency.

Disadvantages of Neteller

Unfortunately, the system has noticeable disadvantages:

For certain areas, the system provides fairly low monthly limits for withdrawal of funds. If a client plans to withdraw large amounts on an ongoing basis, they would probably be better off considering applying for a VIP membership.

The Neteller service has limitations in operation in Russia and Ukraine.

The MasterCard Net+ debit card program has been discontinued.

The level of buyer protection is not as great as, for example, in the PayPal payment system. Thus, it is almost impossible to get a refund if the user has been deceived in some way.

Financial regulation and online gambling legislation restricts the use of Neteller in the following countries: Albania, Cambodia, Canada, Hong Kong, Israel, Laos, Lebanon, Macau, Singapore, Turkey.

Transfer Neteller to Skrill e-wallet

As mentioned above, there is no possibility of withdrawing money from a Neteller wallet to Visa or MasterCard bank plastic cards. But if you have a wallet in the Skrill payment system, you can top it up through Neteller with a 3% commission, and then withdraw money from it to a linked bank card. If you don’t have a Skrill account yet, you can register on the skrill.com website, link your card to your account, and select “Deposit” - “Neteller” when making a deposit. It is important to take into account the limits: without verification, the maximum amount is $621; if the amounts are large, then it is worth going through identity verification.

Withdrawing money from an electronic account

There are many ways to deposit money into a virtual account. The service also offers various options to withdraw funds and pay for services or goods. Let's look at each of them in more detail:

To pay for an online order. To do this, you need to indicate the e-wallet number and confirmation code in the payment form. If the invoice and purchase currency differ, a 3.99% conversion fee will be charged.
To a bank account, including a card account. Withdrawals take place in 3-5 business days with a commission of $10.5 plus conversion if available.
Get your Skrill wallet instantly and without additional costs. You will have to pay a commission of 3.99% of the amount only in case of conversion, if the account currencies are different.
To a mobile wallet or phone number. However, this option for receiving money is not available to Russians.
For other Neteller users it is free and in real time.

The Neteller Net+Card is the fastest and cheapest way to withdraw funds from your account. The system allows you to order a plastic card, which is automatically linked to your account. Only clients registered in the system can order it. Due to stricter requirements, the Neteller payment system does not provide the opportunity to order a card for clients living outside the SEPA zone, except for Russia.

Updated. Please note that Net+ cards have ceased to be serviced in Belarus and Ukraine since November 25, 2016. Therefore, to withdraw money, it is better to use cards from other payment systems: MasterCard from ePayments, MasterCard from AdvCash, Payeer.

Advantages: There are no annual maintenance fees or fees for non-use of the card. Low cost of card issue and delivery (13 USD). Withdrawals are possible in more than 100 countries around the world. Using the Net+ card, you can cash out at ATMs, and also use it to pay for various types of services (where payment is made using plastic cards).

The Net+Prepaid MasterCard is suitable for residents of Russia, where funds can be withdrawn through ATMs that dispense currency in dollars or euros. It should be taken into account that banks (owners of ATMs) set a withdrawal limit for one transaction; in most cases, you can withdraw no more than $200–300.

Money can also be withdrawn through ATMs in countries where this restriction does not exist, for example in the Eurozone, but keeping in mind the established limits. From April 17, 2016, the new commission that is charged when withdrawing cash is 1.75% of the transaction amount per transaction. When withdrawing money from ATMs in a currency that differs from the currency of the Neteller account, it is converted (exchanged). For example, in Ukraine, you can withdraw money from the Neteller Net+Card currency card only in hryvnias.

The card can be used for non-cash payments, for example, in stores and other places where cash registers are installed and MasterCard is accepted. If the currency of payment for a service or product differs from the account currency, it is converted (exchanged), and no commission is charged.

We recommend ordering an ePayments card. With its help, you can withdraw and cash out your earned money from the Internet at fairly low commissions anywhere in the world where MasterCard is accepted.

The card has a high degree of protection when making online payments and guarantees the confidentiality of the client’s personal data.
