The credit card details you provide are used to collect the participation fees (bets) and to pay out winnings, up to US$ 500.00. Your personal details enable us to contact you if you should win one of the mega-jackpots or any other prize over US$ 500.00. These larger prizes are not paid to your credit card, but are paid according to your personal instructions, and only after positive identification, to ensure you are the one receiving the prize.
