International Bingo Gaming for US Players

By now, everyone has heard that the US passed legislation in 2006 that makes it difficult for US citizen to withdrawal money from their accounts on online gaming websites. Because of this, many of the online casinos and bingo halls have decided not to allow US citizens to participate in online gambling on their sites. Some websites, however, continue to offer casino games and bingo for US players under international law despite the US legislation. Because the legislation targets financial institutions and ISPs, international gaming websites are largely unaffected.


Some of the international gaming websites that continue to serve US players are based in Canada. Bingo in particular is extremely popular in Canada. Interestingly enough, even though there are lots of Canadian bingo gaming websites, there are very few that trade in the $CSD currency, preferring to deal in the US dollar, strongly indicating the persuasion of US players.
