Credit Card Usage Policy
1. LinesMaker Poker will charge player’s credit cards using the descriptor “LinesMaker Poker” and a contact phone number, which will appear on your credit card statement.
2. All credit card transactions are charged in US dollars.
3. All players using a credit card to deposit at LinesMaker Poker agree to complete any reasonable verification requirements to prove that they are the authorized cardholder.
As a verification procedure, some LinesMaker Poker credit card deposits may actually be charged to your card as a random amount below the actual value of your deposit. We may then ask you to provide us with this random amount (in $US) to verify the amount of the transaction, proving that you have access to the credit card statement and are most likely the authorized card owner. For example if a player submits a $100 deposit, we may actually charge the credit card $99.86, but deposit $100 to the player’s LinesMaker Poker account. We will then ask the player exactly how much was charged to the card, and if they look at their statement they should be able to tell us the correct answer of $99.86.
4. Some credit card deposits may not be charged to your card immediately. As a fraud protection measure, in certain circumstances we will only pre-authorize a charge to your card and then the settle the transaction when we are satisfied that it is a legitimate charge. Many banks also have processing delays, especially if a charge is submitted on a weekend. It is not unusual to see delays of up to 5-10 days between when you submit a transaction to your LinesMaker Poker account and the charge actually appears on your credit card statement.
5. Players are emailed a transaction receipt for every credit card deposit made at LinesMaker Poker. Please keep a copy of these transaction receipts for your records.
6. Details of your LinesMaker Poker credit card transactions are displayed in the history tab of the cashier within the LinesMaker Poker software, and are also displayed on the player ledger page of the player admin.
7. LinesMaker Poker uses various billing companies and merchant accounts to process credit card transactions. These merchants do not take nor accept any responsibility if the cardholder is not satisfied with the services offered by LinesMaker Poker.
8. Refund & Cancellation Policy – Players who make a deposit to a LinesMaker Poker account are under no obligation to make a purchase or play any games. You may request a refund at any time by sending an email to [email protected]. Where possible, LinesMaker Poker will cancel the transaction or refund directly to the credit card used to make the account deposit, but in some cases we may not be able to do this due to credit card processing regulations. In the event that we are not able to cancel a transaction or refund directly to a credit card, a refund sent directly to a nominated bank account, or via check NETeller or Click2Pay will be offered. Some verification from the cardholder may be required in the event that we are not able to refund directly to a card.
9. If you should have any queries related to a credit card transaction, please contact us. Most issues and questions regarding the use of credit cards, often arise due to a players lack of knowledge of transaction processing procedures. We will always help wherever possible.
10. Remember that credit card fraud is not a game. If you dispute valid transactions at LinesMaker Poker we will track you down, prosecute you and recover all debts in full along with related fines and fees. It is against the law to dispute valid transactions and even if your bank allows you to reverse a transaction it does not mean you are legally authorized to do so.
If, in LinesMaker Poker sole determination, you are found to have cheated or attempted to defraud the Games, other players, or LinesMaker Poker in any way including but not limited to game manipulation or payment fraud, or if you make untrue and/or malicious comments with regard to the LinesMaker Poker operation in any media or forum, LinesMaker Poker reserves the right (and you authorize the LinesMaker Poker) to publicize your actions together with your identity and e-mail address, as well as to circulate this information to other online gaming sites, banks, credit reporting agencies, credit card companies, law enforcement departments and other appropriate agencies.
