Merge Gaming to Halt Player to Player Transfers November 1

Merge Gaming to Halt Player to Player Transfers November 1

The Merge Gaming Network will remove the player to player transfer feature from their software on November 1. All player to player transfer requests must be made by the end of business on October 31. This affects all Merge Gaming skins including Carbon Poker, Aced, PDC Poker, Black Chip Poker, Pokerview and RPM Poker.

This affects our ability to pay out refer a friend and other payments to Carbon Poker. Unfortunately, we must remove them as a withdrawal option. We still offer Moneybookers, Neteller, bank wire, Cake Poker and Juicy Stakes.

This news may have come as part of the announcement that the Carbon Poker family of sites are moving to a different banking system. This includes Carbon Poker, Aced and PDC Poker. These skins will move to the Jazette Enterprises cashier. 

Jazette is better know for their Sportsbook.ag and PlayersOnly brands, both of which are on Merge Gaming. Jazette is licensed in Antigua and Barbuda. That licensing jurisdiction forbids player to player transfers. The good news is that this cashier system will have more deposit options for U.S. players.

This move coincides with other U.S. facing brands altering their player to player transfer policies. Lock Poker lowered their transfer limits to as low as $250 a day. Americas Cardroom and True Poker had also announced that their limits would be lowered but changed their mind and limits will remain $1000 a day for transfers.

Make sure to get your transfer requests in today if you have any need to use the Merge Gaming cashier system if you need to receive funds or send them to another player. This will be the last day you will be able to do so.
