Online Poker Laws in Germany
Although there are no specific German online poker laws, the general prohibition on formerly legal online gambling sites in the country holds for this game too. Even with the new reformulations to the ITG - and because there is no mention of online poker - its status is still illegal. In fact, the only exception is the state of Schleswig-Holstein, which has made licensed internet poker sites legal in the past. On that territory, gamblers have access to platforms such as PokerStars or Bet365 Poker. However, just as in the case of licensed online casino sites in Germany, players from the other states are still able to play poker online on foreign operators.Online Poker Payment Methods in Germany

This way, players are able to use VISA and VISA Electron to both deposits and withdrawals of their winnings on most websites. Despite not usually eligible for withdrawals, operators such as Betway Poker or Betsson Poker also accept MasterCard and Maestro for deposits. Regarding less conventional methods, some operators accept deposits via Trustly or PaySafeCard, as well as Neteller, PayPal, Skrill to deposit and withdraw.Online Poker Sites Accepting EUR
