    Visa allows you to put your winnings back on your card but for some annoying reason, Mastercard does not.

    Course you can on PP (except Mastercard)

    ON Betfair, they send you a cheque (not that I have ever cashed out)...

    note that MBNA will charge you a cash advance fee for every deposit you make to gambling sites though.

    You sure? I always used my Laser card but the odd time when I used Visa I never noticed that.

    yes but only certain card issuers charge the fee. not all banks do and they tend not to let you know in advance. MBNA though are one that definitely do charge a fee.

    you can use Mastercard on PP to deposit funds but Mastercard Europe do not allow withdrawals back onto the card from gambling firms. PP will issue a cheque for any withdrawals you want to make when depositing by mastercard.

    if you would prefer to get the funds back to the card then Laser would be the best option. When you win simply go to the account pages and select withdraw and the funds will hit your bank account in 3-5 days (time taken by banks to clear funds for some reason)
