PayPal is the most trusted e-wallet in the United States and, where available, one of the most convenient deposit and withdrawal methods at online casinos. The critical limitation for Berkeley, Alameda County, California players: PayPal only processes casino transactions for fully state-licensed operators, which exist in six states (NJ, PA, MI, DE, CT, WV). Outside these states, PayPal is blocked from casino transactions by UIGEA compliance rules.
If California is not among the six regulated states, Berkeley players cannot use PayPal at online casinos. The best alternatives offering similar instant-transfer convenience are Skrill, Neteller, Play+ prepaid cards, and cryptocurrency (particularly for the fastest withdrawals).
