Tuesday afternoon online gaming giant BetOnline.ag made a policy change that is sure to please many of their players. Effective immediately, there are no longer any fees associated with Bitcoin deposits.

With the growing popularity of Bitcoin, the team at BetOnline.ag considered the move to do away with deposit fees essential for the upcoming football season. BetOnline.ag point-man, Dave Mason explained:

"Our players spoke and we listened. They let us know how much they love our early openers, generous bonuses, industry-best Live Betting software. However, with the increase of players using Bitcoin as their primary funding method, there were some concerns about the fee. So we listened and did away with the deposit fee. Just in time for our 16th football season it is now easier and more affordable than ever for our players to fund their BetOnline.ag accounts."

And judging by the early feedback from players on Twitter and in the forums, fee-free Bitcoin deposits looks to be a very popular:

"My favorite book!"
"This is huge news. Good for you guys."
"Great news."

Bitcoin is becoming a very popular and safe way to transfer funds to and from an online sportsbook. Bitcoin may seem foriegn to those who are new to the technology, but buying and selling the currency is becoming easier and more accepted every day. In addition to easy, free deposits, BetOnline.ag can process Bitcoin withdrawal requests in just a few hours.
