The NETELLER app isn’t just a new skin for an old product. It’s a reimagining of the way you securely shop, pay and play online. By putting your wallet right on your desktop, the money in your eWallet is always at your fingertips, available whenever you want it and whatever you need it for.
Leave your wallet in your pocket
Forget signing into your account to find out your balance. That information will be displayed right on your desktop whenever you boot up your computer. It’s all about saving you time for the more important things in life like:
- Checking a flight and knowing you have enough money to book it
- Watching the scores online of your favourite match and making a wager
- Playing poker and never having to leave the felt
Whether you’re shopping for books, games, movie tickets, music or that rare vinyl album, you can do it all without ever reaching into your back pocket. The only wallet that matters is right in front of you.

NETELLER gets some Friendly face-time
We recently ran a fun mini-promotion on our Twitter and Facebook feeds based on the Brazil v. Republic of Ireland Friendly played on 2 March. We asked you guys to tell us who scored the opening goal and for your troubles, we’d give one lucky winner 25 EUR. It turned out to be a tough wager to turn down. André K. of Brazil seized the opportunity by posting the first goal on the NETELLER Facebook page. So congrats André, you have won 25 EUR!
NETELLER also had an unmissable presence during the Friendly. Whether you watched it on TV or were there in person, you may have noticed the NETELLER boards on display at certain points throughout the match. But if you missed them, no worries. You can check out the screen captures below.


Were you there? Tell us about it.

Revenue share with My VIP Network
Posted by Leanne in Rewards & promotions, VIP on March 1st, 2010
As I was sitting down to write this blog, I wanted to compare our new VIP revenue share plan to some childhood story, life experience or business venture. While working on the program, it kept reminding me of something, but I couldn’t put my finger on what it was. And then it occurred to me — My VIP Network is pretty similar to a babysitting scheme I came up with when I was a kid.
I was the type of eight-year old who called myself an entrepreneur, so you can probably imagine the kinds of business ideas I’d come up with after reading The Babysitter’s Club in my blanket fort. I started signing up my friends to work as babysitters under me. In exchange, I provided their information to my list of contacts. Every time someone got a babysitting job, I’d get a portion of their pay. All I had to do was sit back, relax and let nature take its course. Not bad for an eight-year old, right?
Well, the My VIP Network revenue share program is a lot like that, but 100% baby free. I’m sure you’ll agree that’s an improvement.
As a NETELLER VIP you sit at the top of the food chain. You’re the entrepreneur. All you have to do is refer your friends, sit back, relax and count your bankroll. And because any friend of yours is a friend of ours, we’re making everyone you refer an instant VIP, with all the great benefits that come with it.
Refer your friends in the month of March and:
- You’ll receive a 20% bonus on your referees first transfer to a merchant up to 20 EUR
- We’ll gift your referee with a 10% bonus on their first transfer to a merchant up to 10 EUR (plus, give them VIP status for 3 months)
- You’ll earn 30% of all revenue from fees generated when the member transfers money to merchants for 12 months from the date of first transaction
- You’ll enjoy free money transfers between yourself and your friends for the first 30 days (rebate)
- Everyone you refer gets a great incentive to keep making you money with 1% cash back on all transfers they make to merchant sites during their 3rd month with us
I’m not even going to ask if this sounds interesting… it should appeal to anyone who likes easy cash, which all of us do. So visit the My VIP Network site to register for your official referral sign up link and start raking in the easy dough.

Everton FC at Tottenham Hotspur with NETELLER and Mansion
Posted by Brendan in Gaming & sports, Sports on March 1st, 2010
It started off as any normal match day, a train to White Hart Lane and a stroll to the ground. But that’s where the normality stopped. We were greeted at reception with our passes for the day, which were kindly supplied by Mansion and made our way to the 4th floor Directors Box.
The hospitality was superb: champagne on entrance that was filled as soon as the last drop had left the glass and a buffet table that wouldn’t look out of place on a 5 star cruise ship. We made our way through to the main ground to place a bet with www.mansion.com. My bets were first scorer Pavlyuchenko and final score 3-1.

Everton FC at Tottenham Hotspur
But we weren’t there for the ambiance — we were there for the match. Our seats were right on the halfway line and provided a great view for the opening goal on 11 minutes. Huddlestone’s long ball put Defoe behind the defence and he fired across goal for “Super Pav” to slide home his fifth in the space of a week! We didn’t have to wait long for the second goal as Spurs’s Croatian contingent linked up neatly on the right-hand corner of the box before Modric curled an exquisite looping effort in off the bar. Spurs had a handful of decent chances to increase the lead but it finished 2-0 at the break as we made our way back into the box to warm up whilst we brushed shoulders with high profile businessmen and ex professionals.
The second half started with pressure building from Everton and they made a breakthrough on 54 minutes, a goal mouth scramble led to Yakubu bundling home, 2-1. Soon after an injury for Huddlestone meant Spurs were forced into a defensive game for the remaining 35 minutes. Pressure started to build again but Spurs were able to hold on for a deserved 2-1 victory.
I had a truly magnificent day and would like to extend my thanks to the people at Manson for their hospitality. But now I must be off to mansion.com to collect my winnings.
Up the Spurs!

A house divided – Czech Republic vs. Scotland
Being from Canada, my background is very colorful. But since my last name’s MacNeill and I look right sexy in a kilt, I’ve always identified with my Scottish heritage. That’s why I’ve always supported the Scottish national football team (Unless Canada qualifies for World Cup – LOL). When I married a girl with Czech parents and family in Prague, I began to support the Czech Republic when Scotland didn’t qualify for the World Cup or Euros (unfortunately since the mid-90’s).
With the Czech vs Scotland friendly on March 3rd and neither team qualified for the World Cup, I’m just hoping for a great game with no family fighting. Both Michal Bílek (CZ) and Craig Levein (SCO) are making their debuts as the new managers of their countries and it should be an interesting look into the future playing styles of these 2 teams.

MacNeill and sons
Good thing I have 2 sons, because if this match repeats itself on the road or in Brazil 2014, one can have the Scotland scarf and the other can have the Czech Republic scarf. Unless Scotland appoints Kenny Dalglish. Because above all else, we are a Liverpool FC household.
Who will you be cheering come March 3?
