Actually skrill allows BTC deposits indirectly, let me explain you. You can open a neteller account and deposit with bitcoins there ( they take just 1% fees ) then then you can upload from neteller to skrill ( the fees is 3% ) so actually you get BTC to skrill at just 4% fees.

You can now directly deposit money via btc into your skrill account. The fee is just 1%:

OP : Actually you solved a big problem of mine. I was trading with a user on localbitcoins named " carlacosta" and he/she was charging me like 15-20% fees I guess and now I am really glad you gave me this site.
Well, there are uses who give me skrill at 1-2% fees on localbtcoins but I prefer highly trusted ones due to reversible nature of skrill.

paypal should also allow deposit through bitcoin, as other payment processors allowing.
It may happen at any time, they are already partnering with coinbase for this reason.

It isw very good news that bitcoin is spreading on different payment services. I have Skrill account so I'm happy because of that but the fees look realy high. Hope they will change that in the future. Maybe with all this changes PayPal may consider their bitcoin policy too.

Skrill doesn't allow this feature directly and as of now you can only convert your btc to skrill and neteller by paying 1% fee but like Payza has a 2% withdrawal fee via BTC, Skrill still doesn't have that option. It is not even as good as PayPal as they charge $5 for withdrawing to the bank and their third-party exchanges are not worth trying with extremely high fee.


PS: I noticed they increased the neteller uploading fee. I remember it was 1% and now it's 3.
They increased it ? Damn I have uploaded more than 2000$ via bitcoins to my neteller accounts, yes accounts because I cannot verify my identity so I make different account every time I reach the limit, hehe easy and safe for me. I was loving that feature and really it was like 2 weeks ago when I deposited last, unhappy the fees is increased.

That is amazing news , that way it would be like gyft where the usage rate of bitcoin would go through the roof.
I think the more places you can spend bitcoin the more bitcoin users we can have. That is amazing for us bitcoin hoarders Cheesy
I think there is a awesome site or service bitpay and using that most of the sites are happily accepting bitcoins. I think it would just take a little time for skrill to accept bitcoins, until then visit the localbitcoins and if you don't like localbitcoins deals then try the exchange section here at our forum : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0

hah the local exchange I'm using (ecb.rs) is taking 5% fee if you're unregistered and 4% if you are. I've had skrill account and their credit card and lemme tell you, fees are high as hell, not rly worth it.

Yeah, still not possible to cashout from Skrill or Neteller directly to BTC but rather via a 3rd party. I haven't found a good way to cashout either to bitcoin so I'd just rather cashout to bank account first. Skrill is now accepting bitcoin deposits because Neteller acquired Skrill. Neteller has had this option for quite a while. The increase in neteller fees was a little surprise though. I would have preferred the 1% fee, obviously Tongue Their fiat cashout fees are quite high also.

Just patiently waiting for some more options to buy/sell bitcoins easy. I'm sure something will pop up in the near future.

Don't accept yet? Ah, so nothing changed... Using third party it's possible to move money to any payment system site, even PayPal. Skrill could do a big step accepting BTC, but they are going same way the others. It would be surely a great news for BTC, but no problem. It's possible to use their service with third party services. I think the only difference would be lower fees, if BTC was accepted officially by them (or not).

Don't ask from you bought or sold skrill. Contact skrill/neteller are they allowing exchanging btc to skrill through 3rd party.

Because in their TOS still written it's not allowed.
What do you mean by this statement?
You mean from a bought skrill account?

It is not allowed to buy btc using their services yet they offer it within their accounts?
I think they have to revise their terms of service agreements then. Cheesy

I means he used 3rd party for trade skrill. If he ask that site why they will ever say it's risky to trade through them.

Skrill/Neteller has good support in twitter so better ask them there.

Is this just deposit or you are able to withdraw too ? I know neteller is pretty fucked up about btc even they "support" it. You can only deposit and you can only withdraw trough bank transfer with some large fee. Hope skrill is going to do something better

I am always confused as to why these sites always offer better service in the U.K and America and limit the use for Canadians. Always thought we had more lacks laws when it came to these things.
Forget which one of these sites it was but they sent me notice for inactivity and I logged into see the amount on there. Not much but there was little options to spend it in a manner that was worth while.
These sites got cracked down on with the poker scene and maybe Canada is still looking at them in that limelight and ignoring that other Countries are back to working with them. Only thing I can think of for the lack of options here.

Its a good thing for you guys even if the rates are initially high. It could create lower rates in other areas and force them to correct.

Well what do you know. Shocked
This changes the game now for finding potential buyers.
Never heard of Coincorner or Cubits for that fact so I would think alot of people will be using those two sites now because as far as I know Bitpanda (Coinimal) is for Europeans only.

I guess this puts me out of the neteller exchange game. Embarrassed

Well so today we can make deposit on skrill use bitcoin with fees 1% and it is same with neteller, but it is just for making deposit money only still need other exchangers to buy bitcoins using skrill is like cubits.com and it is mean skrill support for bitcoins right now.

It is because Skrill is Neteller now. It was bought for their rival company for €1.1 billion so no wonder both payment processor share their stance on cryptocurrency now.
You can use Skrill or Neteller to purchase bitcoin using exchanges (BitPanda) or dedicated wallet+exchange combos like CoinCorner.

Well in USD they charge 4.4 %..
Over 5% was taking just for pay fees(EURO)? It means dollar pair was being preferred, just take below 4.5%. but overall it was being so high(fees).
