Fund your eWallet and transfer money online

This post was written by Lea K. She is the Manager of Consumer Marketing and currently manages all customer marketing programs. This is the third in a series of posts where Lea will be talking about the benefits of using a NETELLER eWallet. You can read the first post here, and the second post here.

OK, so now you know what an eWallet is and why you’d need one. The next logical step is figuring out how you spend your hard-earned money.

Different ways to use your NETELLER account

By now you know that you can send money to multiple merchants, but I like to use this account as my “travel budget.” I simply transfer a little money each month into my NETELLER account to help save for my annual vacation. Since my account is in Euro (and I’m planning a trip to Greece next summer), I can save in the currency that I’ll be using on my trip (with no surprises or huge credit card bills to pay off post-vacation).

I’m planning on using my Net+ card to pay for hotels while in Greece and I can easily access funds at local ATMs that bear the MasterCard® symbol.

Control your spending with Net+

You can use your Net+ card to pay anywhere MasterCard is accepted. It’s quick and easy to do. Plus, consider the money in your NETELLER eWallet account your “discretionary” funds. It’s a great way to control your spending. It’s also private. No statements are sent to your home address. This includes your Net+ usage too so there’s no paper trail of your shopping habits. Go ahead and buy those shoes in every colour!

Send money around the world

I also send money to family. My niece, who lives in Mexico, is going to be 1 year old in December, but since I can’t be there I’m sending her money (via her Dad of course) for her birthday. This is the quickest, safest and cheapest way I’ve found to send her cash for her birthday.

Now that you know all about the NETELLER eWallet, I’d love to hear how will you use it.

It’s better than a credit card

This post was written by Lea K. She is the Manager of Consumer Marketing and currently manages all customer marketing programs. This is the 2nd in a series of posts where Lea will be talking about the benefits of using a NETELLER eWallet. You can read the 1st post here.

I already told you the elevator ride version of what a NETELLER eWallet is all about. But sometimes I give the dinner party version too.

Once people hear that it’s more than just a credit card alternative, they start getting interested. They want to know how they get money into their eWallet and that’s when I put my money hat on and tell them more about it.

You can load money into your eWallet in a variety of ways – the choice is yours:

  1. Deposit using a local bank deposit method like Poli (if you’re from the UK or Australia), giropay (if you’re in Germany)  or iDEAL (if you’re in the Netherlands). You can also use your debit or credit card.
  2. Transfer money into your eWallet from a merchant’s site. Simply visit their cashout page and select NETELLER as the withdrawal option.
  3. Receive money from someone through NETELLER Money Transfer.

Many of these options are free to use and we also have frequent “free deposit” promotions which are a great opportunity to load more funds into your eWallet.

Not only do we give you choice in loading your account, we offer dozens of currency options too, which can reduce your overall foreign exchange costs.

Currency choice and foreign exchange fees

Your eWallet lets you transact in multiple currencies because in the online world there are no borders. For instance, even if you live in the UK, you can easily transact online in US Dollars (USD). Just get a USD NETELLER account and once you have loaded your eWallet, you can move your funds to as many different merchants as you’d like without worrying about paying a foreign exchange (FX) fee every time (provided the merchant you deal with transacts in that currency or whatever your currency of choice is). In the long run, you’ll save big on FX fees.

Send money online to more than 180 countries with NETELLER

Today’s post was written by Gary. Before moving into his current role as Business Development Manager, Gary helped to develop NETELLER’s online Money Transfer service as the Marketing Manager for that program. This is a follow-up to his first blog post, which you can read here.

Money TransferI’ve already talked about using NETELLER’s Money Transfer service to save time and money while sending birthday money to my cousin Petra in Vienna.

But I could have just as easily talked about using it to send money to my manager Sona while she was visiting family in India to pick up gold jewelry and Pashmina shawls for my wife. Or I could have told you about the time I got paid back by Tom in our UK office after he lost a friendly bet we made about sales performance.

In fact, since Money Transfer allows members to send and receive money almost anywhere in the world, I could have described hundreds of ways of using Money Transfer.

How will you use it?

As long as you reside in one of the more than 180 serviced countries, you can start taking advantage of low cost money transfers around the world. Simply sign up for a free NETELLER account to start sending money to anyone in any of our supported countries.

Choose your currency

You didn’t think we’d offer a service in 180 countries and then skimp on the currencies, did you? Money Transfer provides automatic currency exchange between 20 currencies including US dollars, British Pounds, Chinese Renminbi, Indian Rupee, and the Euro. For a complete list of currencies, check out the Money Transfer website at sendmoney.neteller.com.

Using multiple currencies

When you open an account with NETELLER, you must specify which currency you wish to use. What happens if you want to send or receive funds in a different currency than your account is associated with? NETELLER will automatically convert the funds in to the destination currency, making sending and receiving different currencies a snap.

Let us know where you are sending money or learn more by visiting sendmoney.neteller.com.
