Visa like MasterCard discards all online gambling transactions, not a problem?

Visa Inc followed the actions taken by MasterCard a few weeks ago and blocked all online gambling transactions, as reported by CasinoNews.

The move of Visa and MasterCard surprised the Internet community as the US seems to adopt the proper legislation to regulate online gambling across the nation.

According to estimates thousands of Internet gamblers will be affected by the measures. Still it will unlikely be a big problem for players as long as most of them are used to make their online payments via e-wallets. It is credit card networks who should be concerned.
