    Any Online Sportsbooks Located In North America?

    My **** Gift Card declines all international transactions. I need a sportsbook located in North America so I can actually make deposits.

    Sportsinteraction doesen't accept people from the USA. And also, I specifically need an online sportsbook that's located in the USA.

    See if your card will work with PayPal and then join a fantasy sports site like FanDuel. Or see if it works at a legal US racebook. These options are the closest you're going to get. This is because while it is not illegal in many states to place bets online, it is illegal to operate an online sportsbook from the United States. So you're not going to find what you're looking for posting here. Next time purchase a gift card that works with international transfers.

    I took your advice and searched for a list of sites that accept paypal. Not a single one of them accepted USA players though.

    By the way nice Shaun Hill avitar. I love how he's better than the actual starter.

    Best bet is to go back to the store and buy a different card using that card and eat the fee. But good luck bc ive been told no gcs are good internationally anymore..

    I don't think you'll find an online sportsbook in US that takes US residents.

    Well, if you do find one... and there are a few... I would consider it highly risky in regards to funds. Also, what you think is a sportsbook website will actually technically be a local bookie using a perhead skin...

    At this point it's too late anyways. But thanks for the help everybody.

    And also, the US government has suspended international-use of Gift Cards that expire after 2017, and there no longer are cards that expire at 2017 or before.

    i have used g r e e n dot v i s a for years and Heritage is the only place that doesn't accept it. If you really wanna gamble with a prepaid card it's easy

    Nevada is the only state with legal online sportsbetting, and it's only open to Nevada residents.

    The reason why your gift card got declined is because it's not hooked up to an actual physical address and name.
    Instead of a gift card, get a prepaid card that you can reload. For North American players, places like 5Dimes and Bovada will accept those type cards.
