GGPoker Deposit Methods! Explaining Deposit Agents, Credit Cards, and Transfer Methods | Online Poker Media 【Oncaji Record】

At GGPoker (GGPoker), you can use bank transfers and LINE Pay through deposit agents, as well as credit cards, cryptocurrency, and electronic payment services.

In this article, we explain the following in more detail than anywhere else, complete with actual deposit screens:

• List of GGPoker deposit methods (deposit/withdrawal agents and transferring to friends)
• How to use deposit agent services
• How to deposit via credit card
• Causes and solutions when you cannot deposit

List of All 7 GGPoker Deposit Methods

GGPoker primarily allows deposits through seven methods.

While Luxon Pay is also a payment method, we have omitted it from the table because it currently cannot be used for deposits from Japan.

Deposit Method	Min Deposit ($)	Fees
Bank Transfer (Agent)	10	1%–3% + Bank fee (165–230 JPY)
LINE Pay (Agent)	10	1%–3% + Bank fee (165–230 JPY)
Credit/Debit Card (VISA/Mastercard)	10	3%–5%
Payz (formerly ecoPayz)	10	5%
Much Better	10	3.5%
Cryptocurrency (BTC, USDC, etc.)	10–50	None (Exchange/transfer fees apply)
Transfer from Friend	0–	None

Depending on the method, minimum deposits and fees can be high, so it is important to check before depositing.

Also, while transfers from friends have low fees, be cautious of potential scams.

For beginners who are worried about depositing, we recommend using a deposit/withdrawal agent for bank transfer or LINE Pay. If you want the first deposit bonus, use a payment method you usually use, such as a credit card.

How to Deposit via Bank Transfer & Using a Deposit Agent

You can deposit via bank transfer using a deposit agent (transfer service).

We recommend using “GG Store,” which is highly reliable and GGPoker-authorized.

“Poker Stores“ is also a reliable option, as it is a group company of a firm that operates many amusement casinos across Japan. They respond even after midnight (operating from 9:00 AM to 5:00 AM/29:00).

Here is the procedure for depositing via bank transfer using GG Store and Poker Stores.

How to Deposit via Bank Transfer via GG Store (Authorized Agent)

Follow the steps below to make a bank transfer via GG Store.

1. Register the GG Store Official LINE account.
2. Tap “Purchase” (購入) from the menu.
3. Select a purchase amount between $10 and $1,000.
4. Select Bank Transfer (銀行振込) as the payment method.
5. Transfer the funds to the specified bank account.
6. Inform GG Store via LINE that you have made the transfer.
7. Confirm that the amount is reflected in your GGPoker Cashier.

First, register the GG Store official LINE via the QR code or link.

【LINEを登録】

After registering, tap “Add Friend” and start the chat. 

Tap the menu bar at the bottom to show all options. 

To deposit, press “Purchase” in the top left. 

After pressing the purchase button and you can select your desired amount as seen in the list shown below.

The deposit amount is as follows:

• $10
• $20
• $30
• $50
• $100
• $200
• $300
• $500
• $1,000

If you wish to deposit an amount other than these, you will need to enter it manually, but please note that amounts under $10 are not accepted.

Also, while the Japanese Yen equivalent is listed under each amount, this fluctuates depending on the day and time, so be sure to check the current exchange rate before depositing.

Once you select the amount, you can choose between Bank Transfer or LINE Pay as your payment method. Select “Bank Transfer.”

After deciding on your payment method, the bank account information for the transfer will be sent to you via message. Please proceed with the transfer according to those instructions.

You can transfer from an ATM, but it is generally better to use online banking.

Select your bank from the screen above and choose the branch. In this case, I transferred using Mitsubishi UFJ Bank’s “UFJ Direct.”

The recipient account may differ from the one shown in this example, so please verify the details yourself on LINE.

Select “Savings Account” and enter the account number.

This completes the transfer.

On many other poker sites, there is often a rule to “include your ID numbers in the sender’s name.”

However, GGPoker does not have this rule, and using your “standard name as is“ is perfectly fine.

When using bank transfer, always ensure the funds are sent to arrive on the same day.

Once you have completed the transfer, send a notification via LINE like the image below.

• Sender name (Katakana)
• Transfer amount
• Registered email address

If more than 30 minutes have passed between the transfer and your notification, you should also include the time of the transfer in your message.

When I sent the notification at 11:11 AM, I received the following message confirming that the funds had been reflected exactly 50 minutes later, at 12:00 PM sharp.

Since I sent the sender’s name in Kanji instead of Katakana, the process might have normally been even faster.

Because of this, as seen in the message above, the LINE reply states, “From next time, please ensure the sender’s name is provided in Katakana.”

How to Deposit via Bank Transfer via Poker Stores

1. Register the Poker Stores Official LINE account.
2. Select the GGPoker tab from the menu and tap “Purchase GG$.”
3. Transfer to the specified bank account.
4. Inform Poker Stores via LINE that you have made the transfer.
5. Confirm the reflection in the GGPoker Cashier.

Just like with GG Store, start by adding the Poker Stores official LINE account via the QR code or link below.

【LINEを登録】

Once you register, the Poker Stores account will be displayed as shown in the image below, so start a chat.

When you open the chat screen, an initial greeting will be sent, so tap the menu bar at the bottom to open it.

Since Poker Stores also handles deposit agency services for KKPoker, three tabs will appear in the menu bar; please select the tab labeled “GGPOKER.”

From the menu, tap “Purchase GG$” in the top left corner.

After pressing purchase, the rates and amounts will appear, so check the box for the amount you want.

Poker Stores allows you to select amounts in $5 increments, enabling more precise deposit amounts than GG Store.

This will be followed by the bank account information for the transfer, so please proceed with the transfer. In Poker Stores, there is no specific need to choose between bank transfer or LINE Pay transfer beforehand.Once you have made the transfer, send the following details via LINE within 10 minutes.

• Sender’s name (Katakana)
• Transfer amount
• The email address registered with GGPoker

Once Poker Stores confirms the receipt of funds and the remittance is complete, a completion message like the one below will be sent.

After that, wait a short while for the amount to be reflected in your GGPoker cashier, and be sure to check it.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via LINE Pay | Using Deposit Agencies

When depositing with LINE Pay, the process—from adding the official LINE account to pressing the purchase button—is the same as described in “How to Deposit into GGPoker via Bank Transfer | Using Deposit Agencies.”

Here, we will introduce the steps and methods for depositing via LINE Pay using two different deposit agencies.

How to Deposit via LINE Pay from GG Store (GGPoker-Authorized Deposit Agency)

Follow the steps below to make a bank transfer via LINE Pay.

1. Register GG Store Official LINE.
2. Open the menu and select “Purchase.”
3. Choose an amount between $10 and $1,000.
4. Select “LINE Pay” as the payment method.
5. Send money to the specified account from your LINE Pay.
6. Notify GG Store via LINE.
7. Confirm the reflection in the GGPoker Cashier.

Now, I will specifically introduce the flow from Step 4 onward, which differs from bank transfers.

If you haven’t registered the GG Store official LINE yet, please do so via this “GG Store Official LINE” link.

First, open “LINE Pay” from the LINE friend list or the “Wallet” tab at the bottom right.

When you open LINE Pay, a list of payment-related options will be displayed as shown in the screen below.

Tap the orange “Send Money” icon to proceed to the transfer screen.

Tap the “Send” button located under “Transfer to Account.” This will bring up a screen showing your history and account number entry options.

In the top menu, select “Account Number” in the center.

An account number entry screen will appear. Enter the account details exactly as sent to you via LINE from GG Store.

The difference from a standard bank transfer is that “you enter the account information within the LINE Pay app rather than a net banking screen.”

Select the branch.

Select “Savings Account” and enter the account number and your name.

For the name, do not use your bank account name; instead, enter the name you have registered on LINE in Katakana.

Additionally, if it is your second transfer of the day, add a “2” at the end, such as “Yamada Taro 2.”

If it is your third time, please enter “3.”

This is the screen to confirm the transfer destination is correct.

If it is correct, enter the amount.

In this case, I chose the minimum deposit of $10 (1,386 yen).

Tap “OK” to proceed.

Once the amount is entered, press “Proceed to Confirmation.”

Enter your LINE Pay password.

The transfer is now complete.

Press “Close” to return to LINE.

Send a notification via LINE like this.

The details to include are the same as a bank transfer:

• Sender’s name (Katakana)
• Transfer amount
• Registered email address

You will receive an immediate automated reply from the bot.

Once the receipt of funds is confirmed by GG Store, a confirmation LINE will be sent and the funds will be reflected. Be sure to check that the deposit has been properly credited.

How to Deposit via LINE Pay from Poker Stores

Poker Stores is even easier to use because the transfer destination for bank transfers and LINE Pay is the same. The flow and procedure for the deposit are as follows:

1. Register the Poker Stores official LINE.
2. Select the GGPoker tab from the menu and tap “Purchase GG$.”
3. Transfer to the designated bank account.
4. Notify Poker Stores via LINE that you have made the transfer.
5. Confirm that the amount is reflected in your GGPoker cashier.

Tap “Send” from the LINE Pay chat screen or Wallet, then navigate to the “Transfer to Account” → “Account Number” screen.

After entering the recipient’s information and the amount to confirm the transfer, the deposit from LINE Pay using Poker Stores is complete.

Within 10 minutes of depositing, please send the following information.

• Sender’s name (Katakana)
• Transfer amount
• The email address registered with GGPoker

Once you receive the transfer completion notice from Poker Stores, the deposit is finished.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Credit/Debit Card

To deposit into GGPoker using a credit or debit card, use the GGPoker app.

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “Credit Card” (Visa/MasterCard) from the deposit screen.
3. Enter the deposit amount and select the payment method.
4. Enter credit card information and confirm payment.

The steps to deposit into GGPoker via credit/debit card are as follows.

Let’s proceed while looking at the actual screens.

When not using a deposit agency, deposits and withdrawals are handled via the “Cashier” on My Page. On smartphones, this is a red button as shown below; on PC, it is a monochrome circular button.

When you tap the Cashier, the deposit screen shown below will automatically appear.

Various deposit methods are displayed on the deposit screen. Tap the icon in the second row showing the VISA and MasterCard logos.

The amount entry screen will appear. Tap the buttons with numbers or enter the deposit amount directly.

If you haven’t received a first deposit bonus yet, you can select your bonus here.

Please note that you cannot receive this “First Deposit Bonus” if you use a deposit agency. The major advantages of depositing via credit card are that you don’t need to communicate via LINE and you can receive a first deposit bonus of up to $1,000.

Once entered, press “Next: Select Method” to proceed to entering your credit card information.

The screen above will appear; enter your card details.

Once the card information is scanned, it will be automatically reflected in the input fields. Check to ensure the card was read correctly and there are no issues.

It’s a bit hard to see, but white text showing the expiration date “06/27” has been read.

(The card number and name are scanned in the same way.)

Scroll down and press “DEPOSIT.”

This is the payment processing screen.

If it’s only been a short time, you may be able to cancel by pressing “Cancel Deposit.”

(*Conversely, be careful not to press this button by mistake.)

This is the screen for a successful payment.

For reference, I used a Mitsubishi UFJ Bank Visa Debit card.

Can you use Credit Cards for GGPoker deposits?

For GGPoker deposits, you can use credit cards as long as they are VISA or MasterCard.

Debit cards can also be used. However, depending on the bank or card issuer, some may not be accepted. Let’s look at the actual screens while explaining why they can or cannot be used.

VISA and MasterCard Credit Cards Can be Used

The accepted international brands are VISA and MasterCard.

On the deposit screen, only these two can be selected; brands like JCB, AMEX, and Diners cannot be used.

Additionally, as long as it is VISA or MasterCard, bank-issued debit cards can also be used.

I personally tested this with a “Mitsubishi UFJ Bank VISA Debit Card” and it was successful. So, even if you don’t have a credit card, you can deposit as long as you have a debit card.

Paying by credit card is very simple and offers benefits such as being eligible for the first deposit bonus. For those who want to get even more bonuses, we recommend registering through our site!

You can get up to $1,020 in combination with the first deposit bonus. First, try registering for free using the button below.

＼限定ボーナスあり！／

Usage May Be Restricted by Card Company or Bank Policies

While usage restriction is true not just for GGPoker but for any poker site or app; payments may fail depending on the policies of the card company or bank.

Sometimes the reason is “No because it’s gambling” or “No because it’s an overseas service.”

Reasons vary by company and financial institution, but please understand that there is a certain percentage of “credit and debit cards that cannot be used.”

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Payz (Formerly ecoPayz)

Depositing using the electronic payment service Payz (formerly ecoPayz) is simple. The procedure is as follows:

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “Payz” from the deposit screen.
3. Enter the deposit amount and select the payment method.
4. Log in to Payz, confirm the transaction, and complete the deposit.

First, tap “Cashier” from My Page.

The deposit screen will appear; select “Payz.”

When you select Payz, a screen to enter the deposit amount will appear, just like with credit cards.

Enter or select the deposit amount and tap “Next: Select Method” to proceed.

Confirm that the payment method, amount, and currency are correct, then press “Deposit.” (Note: In the app, this may be labeled as “Guarantee” or “Deposit.”)

The Payz login screen will be displayed as shown below. Log in using your “Username and Password.”

Please note that your username is not your email address.

When you press “LOGIN,” a verification code will be sent via SMS.

However, if you switch screens to check the SMS, the Payz login screen may disappear, and you will be returned to the GGPoker screen.

Furthermore, the “From Messages” popup that usually appears on iPhones may not show up.

This is likely because GGPoker calls the Payz screen through a specific type of embedding.

For this reason, we recommend performing the task on a computer while checking the SMS on your smartphone.

Once you have confirmed the SMS verification code, enter it in the “Verification code” field and press “LOG IN.”

Once you successfully log in to Payz, your Payz balance will be displayed as shown in the image below.

Check the balance and the amount; if there are no issues, press the “Transfer Now” button.

When the payment is successful, a message saying “$10 (the specified deposit amount) has been deposited” will appear.

At the same time, you will receive a deposit notification email from GGPoker.

If you receive this email, the deposit has been successful, and the amount will be reflected in your cashier shortly.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via MuchBetter

The deposit method using MuchBetter is almost the same as Payz. The procedure is as follows:

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “MuchBetter” from the deposit screen.
3. Enter the deposit amount and select the payment method.
4. Log in to MuchBetter and confirm the transaction.
5. Deposit complete.

Now, let’s look at the specific steps.

First, tap “Cashier” on My Page.

The deposit screen will appear; select “MuchBetter.”

When you select MuchBetter, a screen to enter the deposit amount will appear, just like with credit cards or Payz.

Enter or select the deposit amount and tap “Next: Select Method” to proceed.

Next, just like with Payz, you will be able to select the payment method. Choose “MuchBetter,” verify the amount and currency, and press “Deposit.”

After “Connecting” is displayed, the screen will switch to MuchBetter.

The phone number registered with MuchBetter should be displayed. If it is correct, press “PROCEED.”

If the phone number is correct, a login success screen will be displayed as shown below.

While it says “Transaction with your phone number is complete!”, the payment is not actually finished yet.

Only the “Request” has been completed.

When you open MuchBetter, you will find a notification stating “There is a transfer request from GGPoker.”

Tap it, and it will be displayed as a “Pending Request.”

The current rate for $10 plus a fee has been added, totaling 1,426 yen.

If the amount is correct, press the orange “Send” button.

When the screen below is displayed, the payment is complete.

Confirm that “GGPoker” has been added to your deposit/withdrawal history.

ID Verification and Phone Number Changes are Required for MuchBetter

When depositing with MuchBetter, some people may have encountered an error screen like the one below and were unable to deposit.

There are two likely causes for this:

1. You need to complete “ID Verification“ in MuchBetter.
2. The phone number in “BILLING INFO” must match your MuchBetter phone number.

I will explain each using actual screens.

Complete “ID Verification” in MuchBetter

ID Verification refers to “Identity Verification (KYC).” This is not the KYC for GGPoker, but the verification required by MuchBetter itself.

If you haven’t completed MuchBetter’s identity verification, a message saying “After ID verification, other functions will be available” should appear, as shown in the image below.

For reference, once you verify your ID with MuchBetter, you will be able to do more than just deposit into GGPoker; you can also:

• Withdraw funds
• Send and request money
• Increase your transaction limits
• Get an account certificate

To verify your ID and deposit into GGPoker, first tap “Verify ID.”

When you press “Verify ID,” an explanation will appear asking you to “Prepare a non-expired identity document.“

Press “I understand” to proceed, and a list of usable identity documents will be displayed.

The documents you can use for MuchBetter verification are as follows:

• Passport
• Driver’s License
• ID Card

ID Card

The final “ID Card” can be considered a “My Number Card.”

While it might mean “Other ID,” it is certain that My Number is a strong candidate as a photo ID is required.

Take a photo of the front of the ID as shown in the image below.

The image is processed automatically. For the record, only the front of the license was required.

Next, perform biometric authentication (Selfie).

A screen like this will appear; follow the instructions to take a selfie.

An effect will be applied after taking the photo, but that’s fine—just continue.

Data analysis starts immediately.

It was successfully sent and marked as “Under Review.”

Notification of the result usually arrives within 10 minutes.

In my case, when I checked 5 minutes later, the review was already complete.

The previous “Let’s verify your ID” display has disappeared.

The ID verification took about 5 minutes.

Match the “BILLING INFO” Phone Number with MuchBetter

Regarding the “Phone Number,” which was the other likely cause, the setting was as follows when it failed:

As you can see, the listed phone number is not a Japanese one.

Since I didn’t enter this myself, I assume it’s a default setting.

Once I had completed ID verification and changed this to my own phone number (the one registered with MuchBetter), the deposit was successful.

If you can’t deposit via MuchBetter, don’t panic—try completing the ID verification and changing your phone number.

If you are worried about deposit errors, we recommend registering through our site! You don’t even need to deposit; you can get $20 just by signing up!

If you’re interested in GGPoker, try registering via the button below first.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Cryptocurrency (BTC)

Depositing with Cryptocurrency (BTC) is slightly different from the methods introduced so far.

The specific steps are as follows.

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “Bitcoin” from the deposit screen.
3. Copy the address and the amount.
4. Confirm the transfer from your wallet/exchange account and answer the questionnaire.
5. Complete security authentication; once withdrawal approval is granted, the deposit is complete.

Select “Cashier” on My Page to display the deposit screen. Select “Bitcoin” from the following screen.

When you select “Bitcoin,” just like other payment methods, enter the deposit amount and press the “Deposit” button.

The minimum deposit for cryptocurrency starts from $100.

Once you have decided on the amount, press “Deposit.”

When you press the deposit button, the BTC equivalent of your desired amount, the exchange rate, and the destination address will be displayed.

*The image is in English, but it will be displayed in Japanese if your settings are set to Japanese.

Transfer the funds to this address from your wallet or exchange account.

Since cryptocurrency prices change rapidly, try to complete the deposit within 15 minutes.

In this case, I used Binance.

Above is the transfer screen from Binance.

Enter the “Address” and “Amount” exactly as shown on GGPoker.

When you press “Withdraw,” a risk warning like the one above will appear, so press “Next.”

Before confirming, there are three questions to verify that you are not being scammed.

If your answers are fine, you can move forward.

Perform double security authentication (both phone and email).

Perform a final check and press “Next.”

The withdrawal request has now been sent.

However, it is still only a “Request,” so it is not yet complete.

For a while after this, if you try to view the result, it will show as “Awaiting Approval.”

Once complete, the screen you were originally using on GGPoker will switch to display “Deposited into your account.”

In my case, it appeared in about 5 minutes.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Cryptocurrency (USDC)

USDC (USD Coin) is deposited using the same steps as Bitcoin:

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “USD Coin” from the deposit screen.
3. Copy the address and amount.
4. Confirm the transfer from your wallet/exchange account and answer the questionnaire.
5. Complete security authentication; once withdrawal approval is granted, the deposit is complete.

Now, let’s look at the specific steps.

First, select “USD Coin” on the screen above.

When you enter the amount and press “Deposit,” a popup will appear before you can confirm the address.

You will be asked to confirm the use and display of the USD Coin address, so press “OK.”

The payment amount, exchange rate, and recipient address will be displayed.

All that’s left is to send the USDC to this address from your exchange or app wallet.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Luxon Pay

I should mention upfront that this deposit method is currently unavailable.

While you can start the process from GGPoker, it is presumed that “residents of Japan cannot deposit into Luxon Pay itself.”

Since it can be used in some countries outside of Japan, it may be a deposit method intended for people in those regions/countries.

However, since it may become available in the future, I will introduce the deposit method.

Just like USDC and Bitcoin, use the following steps.

1. Select “Cashier” from My Page.
2. Select “Luxon Pay” from the deposit screen.
3. Log in to your Luxon Pay account.
4. Select US Dollars and enter the deposit amount.
5. Select the deposit method.

Now, let’s look at the specific steps.

First, tap “Cashier” on My Page. Open the deposit screen and select Luxon Pay, then enter the deposit amount just like other payment methods.

When you press “Deposit,” the following screen appears.

Log in using either your “Phone Number” or “Email Address.”

To complete the login, receive a verification code via SMS or email.

Press either the “Authorise Via SMS” or “Authorise Via email” button.

In the case of email, a code will be sent like this.

Now, this is an issue with GGPoker deposits in general, but if you switch screens like this, the deposit process “starts over from the beginning.“

Therefore—at least on my iPhone—I cannot complete the process with just one smartphone, so I will switch to a PC from here.

I logged in from a computer.

Choose USD and click the”Deposit” button,

Enter the amount in this section.

Since the minimum deposit was shown as $20.48, I set it to $21.

Press “Continue” at the bottom of the screen. After that, choose your deposit method.

There are two options, “Card” and “Other Payment Methods”

As shown above, it says “No payment methods available.”

Unfortunately, regardless of which you choose, it says “No payment methods available” as shown above.

Thinking “I probably need to register it somewhere first,” I searched for a screen where I could register a payment method.

However, there wasn’t one at all.

I registered a bank as shown, but still couldn’t deposit.

I checked everywhere that seemed relevant, such as “Personal details,” but there was no screen to set up a payment method.

Most likely, Luxon Pay cannot be used for GGPoker in Japan.

How to Deposit into GGPoker via Transfers from Friends/Acquaintances

If depositing is difficult, there is also a method to have dollars transferred to you from friends or acquaintances who are already playing on GGPoker.

The basic method and flow are the same as using a deposit agency. You either pay cash, use a prepaid card, or use PayPay to a designated account and have the dollars transferred, or you have the dollars transferred and pay later.

Specifically, the steps are.

1. Get information such as the destination and amount.
2. Transfer funds to the designated account.
3. Send a proof of transfer image and your GGPoker account information.
4. Have the other person transfer the dollars to you.

In most cases, this method does not involve fees, giving you the advantage of buying dollars cheaply.

On the other hand, we do not highly recommend this because the risk of falling victim to a scam—where you deposit money but the dollars are never transferred—is very high.

Transferring GG Dollars to acquaintances or friends is simple and can be done from the Cashier.

An email address is required as the destination.

What is the Recommended Deposit Method for GGPoker?

Based on everything discussed so far, what is the best deposit method for GGPoker?

The recommended method for GGPoker deposits is using a deposit agency like GGStore.

GGStore is an “Official Deposit Agency Service” for GGPoker and allows deposits via two methods: “Bank Transfer” and “LINE Pay.”

Using it requires “adding the official account as a friend on LINE,” but for those who don’t mind that, it is the easiest and cheapest method.

It is clearly easier to use LINE than to register for a brand-new overseas payment service.

If you register via the official site and use a deposit agency, you cannot get the first deposit bonus. However, if you register through our site, you can get $20 initially as a registration bonus regardless of the deposit method.

First, try registering via the button below.

Causes and Solutions for Error Codes when Unable to Deposit into GGPoker

Since GGPoker’s deposit methods are often unfamiliar, you may encounter error codes and be unable to deposit.

Here, we introduce common causes for being unable to deposit and how to handle them.

Causes of Error Codes when Unable to Deposit into GGPoker

While the causes for being unable to deposit and receiving error codes vary by payment method, common cases include:

• Registration, such as identity verification, is not complete on the payment method side.
• Typos in input or settings.
• You have exceeded your usage limit.
• For credit cards, the card has expired.

When trying to deposit with a newly registered payment service, there are cases where the registration on the service’s side isn’t finished or personal information is still at default settings.

Solutions for When an Error Code Appears and Cannot Deposit into GGPoker

If a deposit error occurs, first check if there are issues with the four causes mentioned above. If you still cannot deposit and an error code appears, be sure to check your internet connection as well.

In rare cases, because the connection was poor, “it didn’t work on a smartphone, but worked when depositing from a PC” or “it worked after logging in again.”

However, if you absolutely cannot deposit, check with the support of each payment method. They can suggest solutions, so please follow their instructions.

Important Points Regarding GGPoker Deposits

There are six key points to keep in mind regarding deposit methods for GGPoker:

1. Watch out for transfer (deposit agency) scams
2. Identity verification is required to receive the first deposit bonus
3. Deposit bonuses are not available when using deposit/withdrawal agencies
4. Switching screens to check SMS restarts the process from scratch
5. Inquiries are handled in English only
6. Luxon Pay cannot be used

Here, we will introduce these precautions in detail.

Watch Out for Transfer Fraud (Deposit Agency Scams)

While not all of them are scams, you must be careful because recruitment posts seen on social media (SNS) such as “Fee-free dollar transfers” or “Looking to buy dollars” are often cases of transfer fraud (deposit agency scams).

Even if an account has a high follower count or shows you a driver’s license, it does not mean they are safe.

Be sure to use GGPoker-authorized services like GG Store or Poker Stores.

Identity Verification is Required to Receive the First Deposit Bonus

GGPoker offers the following first deposit bonuses for new users, and you can choose one of them:

• Match Bonus: Cash back that doubles your deposit amount.
• Free Bonus: Get up to $100 in Spin & Gold tickets and other rewards with a deposit of $20 or more.

However, identity verification (KYC) is required to receive these first deposit bonuses.

Before depositing, complete your identity verification by referring to the article “How to Complete GGPoker’s Identity Verification (KYC)! Thorough Explanation of Address Entry and Non-rejected ID Documents.”

If you find registering identity verification (KYC) troublesome or want to play immediately, registering through our site allows you to get $20 without needing a deposit or identity verification. If you want to start playing right now, register via the button below.

＼限定ボーナスあり！／

Deposit Bonuses Are Not Available When Using Deposit/Withdrawal Agencies

While using a deposit agency is convenient and easy, you must be careful because you cannot receive the first deposit bonus.

The first deposit bonus must be selected at the same time you choose your payment method; therefore, you cannot even select it when using a deposit agency.

Starting with cryptocurrency or electronic payments is one option to consider. Also, GGPoker offers various bonuses other than the first deposit bonus, so it is also fine to just aim for those.

If you want to know specifically what kind of bonuses you can get, please refer to the article “Latest Version: Thorough Comparison of GGPoker Bonus Codes!”

Additionally, if you want to know more about the special bonuses exclusive to our site, please see “Up to $1,020: Get a No-Deposit Bonus with the GGPoker Bonus Code ‘Recode’!”

Switching Screens to Check SMS Restarts the Process from Scratch

For overseas deposit services like MuchBetter or Luxon Pay, a screen saying “A code has been sent via SMS” will appear.

Naturally, you would “return to the home screen” at this point to check your SMS.

You might think, “If I wait, the SMS number will pop up,” but depending on your device, it may not appear.

Even if it does appear, it only stays for a few seconds, so if you miss it, you will have to check your SMS app anyway.

When you open your SMS and then return to GGPoker, the “deposit process restarts from scratch.“

Please be mindful of this when making a deposit.

Official Website Inquiries are Handled in English Only

When I sent a question via email to the official website, I received the following reply:

“Apologies for not communicating in your own language.”

Some people might think, “Did they just use English to avoid answering the question?”

However, as shown below, even “good news” is returned in English:

“I’m glad to hear your deposit has been processed. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. Best of luck on the tables!”

In this way, if something happens with your deposit method and you make an inquiry, all communication will be in English.

However, the official LINE account provides support in Japanese, so if you encounter any issues, try consulting GGPoker’s “Official LINE.”

Luxon Pay Cannot be Used (As of September 2023)

As explained earlier, Luxon Pay cannot be used. The reasons why we can say Luxon Pay is unusable are not just because “we actually tested it,” but also for the following reasons:

1. Websites explaining how to use it have been closed
2. Domestic media outlets that say it is “usable” only write up to the “registration method”
3. There are no Japanese tweets about Luxon Pay on Twitter (X)

Let’s explain each of these in detail with actual screens.

Websites Explaining How to Use it Have Been Closed

As of July 25, 2022, searching for “Luxon Pay how to use” results in the search results shown above.

When you open the top site, the page does not display, as shown below:

Also, when searching again, the official website’s QA page was number one, but it does not explain how to use it.

Domestic Media Outlets Say it is “Usable” Only Show Up to the “Registration Method”

There are several domestic media sites that claim “Luxon Pay is usable.”

However, the information provided by these sites only goes as far as the “registration method.”

You can certainly get that far, and our site even completed the identity verification and proof of address beyond that.

However, deposits beyond that point are not possible, and there are no sites that explain the process using actual screens.

No Japanese Tweets About Luxon Pay on X (Formerly Twitter)

Even searching for “Luxon Pay” on Twitter yields no Japanese tweets as of July 25, 2022.

I checked all the way to the last tweet, and there were none.

And looking at the followers of the Luxon Pay Twitter account, there are almost zero Japanese people.

Even Chinese users were almost non-existent (though they could be using English, of course).

Given this situation on Twitter, it can be said that “almost no Japanese people living in Japan are currently able to use Luxon Pay.”

Frequently Asked Questions about GGPoker Deposits

GGPoker has many deposit methods, and because some parts are complex, trouble is not uncommon. Here, we have summarized frequently asked questions regarding deposit methods.

Can I Use PayPay for Deposits?

There are rumors that PayPay can be used for GGPoker deposits, but no official information has been released stating it is “usable.”

However, when having dollars transferred from friends or acquaintances, some individuals may agree to payment via PayPay.

If you absolutely want to pay with PayPay, your only option is to rely on someone trustworthy.

Can I Deposit from a Convenience Store?

Bank transfers are possible from convenience store ATMs.

Therefore, when requesting a deposit agency, you can deposit from a convenience store without having to go all the way to a bank.

Are there bonuses I can get without depositing?

Our site issues a special GGPoker-authorized bonus code.

In addition to the regular bonuses, we are giving away a $20 no-deposit bonus!

If you want to try playing for a bit without the hassle of depositing, or if you want to get as many bonuses as possible, register through our site right now.

What Should I do if I Can’t Deposit or Withdraw?

If you are unable to deposit or withdraw, please consult GGPoker’s official support.

You can also consult via the inquiry form on the official website, but since the reply will be entirely in English, we recommend the official LINE.

“Inquiry Contact” Official LINE Account: GGPoker JAPAN

Depending on the nature of your inquiry, you may receive a reply within a few minutes.

How Long Does it Take for a Deposit to be Reflected?

The reflection time for a deposit varies depending on the payment method.

“It’s the GG official deposit agency. You can deposit via LINE Pay so it’s seriously easy, and it’s reflected in as fast as 10 minutes with almost no fees, so I highly recommend it.”

— よーこー (@youkou_poker) August 31, 2021

If you deposit through an agency, it seems to be reflected in about 10 minutes at the earliest.

Which is Easier to Deposit into, KKPoker or GGPoker?

Both KKPoker and GGPoker have official deposit agencies, and most of the same electronic payment services and cryptocurrencies can be used, so both are easy to deposit into. Therefore, there is no major difference in terms of effort or time until reflection.

Additionally, if you want to compare GGPoker and KKPoker from other perspectives, please refer to “Which is Recommended: KKPoker or GGPoker? A Thorough Comparison!”

Can I Use the Visa Vandle Card?

Can I Use the Visa Vandle Card?

The “Vandle Card” is a popular deposit method for online casinos. While it is a prepaid card issued by VISA, it generally cannot be used for GGPoker.

There is a possibility it may be usable in the future, but we recommend having another deposit method ready.

Deposit into GGPoker and Start Playing Poker!

GGPoker supports a wide range of deposit methods, including bank transfers via deposit agencies, LINE Pay, credit cards, electronic payments, cryptocurrency, convenience store transfers, and transfers from friends. However, PayPay and Vandle Cards cannot be used.

Since deposit fees and minimum deposit amounts vary by method, try to choose the one that is best for you by comparing them.

Also, because it is operated overseas, credit card deposits may rarely fail and show an error code, but you should be able to deposit by checking your settings or consulting official support.

Our site issues a special GGPoker-authorized bonus code. If you register through our site, you can receive $20 without needing a deposit or identity verification.

Get more bonuses than anyone else and start playing GGPoker with a great advantage!
