Neteller vs Firepay?

Can't really tell a difference between both. However, Neteller appears to be much more popular. Why?

Another question, when I deposit money into Poker sites from Neteller/Firepay and then withdraw to my Neteller/Firepay, is this all free? I thought accepting money through Neteller/Firepay cost me a fee - but I guess the poker sites take care of that?

Thanks.

Transferring money to Firepay from your bank account costs a small fee ($2.99), but nothing else does that I've found.

NetTeller seems to be a better all around program, and more widely accepted, but I had some major SSN verification issues when I tried to sign up so I went swiftly with my second choice.

There is also a small fee from Firepay when you put money into your account too($5.00) Many sites now are not using Firepay as a cashout choice.

The benefit of Firepay is that you can access your money immediately, that is take it out of your checking account into Firepay. With Neteller to do so you pay a lot. Not sure what it is but it's a percentage of the money being taken out of checking and gets quite high.

I discovered this when I wanted a reload bonus but waited too long to cashout then cash in so I had to use Neteller. The fee made it not worth the effort.
