Zimpler is a brand new mobile depositing method that’s set to launch in the UK soon – and you’ll be able to use it right here at Fortune Frenzy! Created in Sweden, this payment service is entirely dedicated to iGaming, which means it’ll make funding your casino accounts quicker and easier than ever before. So what is it and how do you use it? Ahead of it’s release, we’re giving our players the inside scoop and look at how the Swedish brand differs from other payment services.
What Is Zimpler?
Like Boku or PayPal casinos, Zimpler is a mobile depositing service that uses cutting edge technology to make sure you can fund your account with ease and not have to worry about security or fraud. The brand started in Sweden after noticing a gap in the market for a payment method that was exclusive to casino players, and they now work in partnership with casino sites across Europe. Very soon, Zimpler will expand into the UK and it’s already got the best of the best casinos on board — that’s us by the way!
A Zimpler account is quick and easy to set up and unlike PayPal and other e-wallet services, you don’t need to manage your account separately. You can create an account by simply selecting Zimpler as your depositing method and supplying your phone number. Zimpler uses SMS verficiation to make sure use is always authorized, and you can add different payment methods to your account. After making your first deposit your account details will be saved, so next time you’ll only need your phone number to make a payment.
How is Zimpler Different To Other Payment Methods?
The main edge Zimpler has over it’s competitors is the fact it’s entirely committed to the iGaming community. This means that, unlike other brands, it can focus its goals on making the whole process of funding casino accounts more efficient and will work to solve casino-specific depositing problems.
As Zimpler occupies a place in the market that’s not quite a phone billing method yet not an e-wallet either, it will have some serious competition. Of all the payment services out there, we think it’ll be up against the big dogs Skrill, PayPal and Boku.
Both Skrill 1-tap and PayPal work in similar ways to make mobile deposits seamless for users. However, both require log-in details to be supplied and both work by acting like a middle-man holding your credit. Unlike these services, Zimpler takes withdrawals directly from your bank or card, so you don’t need to manage a middle account.
Moreover, Zimpler only requires a phone number to log-in, which saves you from having to remember yet another username and password. The SMS verification service supplied by Zimpler also means the service is extra secure, as you’ll need to input the code sent to your mobile, saving you from worrying about internet fraud.
In some respects, Zimpler is more like Boku than any other payment service. Both services require a mobile number to make a payment and both services make sure the transaction is authorized by sending you an SMS message. The main difference between the two is the fact Boku charges the payment to your monthly phone bill or will subtract it from your pay-as-you-go balance. Zimpler, on the other hand, requires you to input your banking details the first time you use the service, so that payments can be taken directly from your bank account. This means that you don’t have to worry about ‘bill-shock’ at the end of the month and ensures that you’re never playing with borrowed money.
Like all of the services mentioned here, Zimpler is FSA (Financial Services Authority) approved, meaning all payments are secure and protected. You can also request a receipt for your transaction via text message, email or post. As a casino-dedicated brand, you can also chose to impose a gaming budget on your Zimpler account. You can decide how much money you’d like to spend per month and as this is applied straight to your account, it means that this budget is set for all casino sites you may use. This is very responsible of Zimpler as it gives players a safer gaming experience, knowing their in control of their finances and preventing you from over-spending.
‘Sign me up!’ we hear you cry. Fear not, when Zimpler launches in the UK, Fortune Frenzy players will be the first to know. We love providing our players with a range of depositing methods and, for all the reasons mentioned in this article, we think Zimpler is an excellent way of funding your account. It’s easy to use, quick and secure, all the things that make for a great payment service. Watch this space as we’ll have more Zimpler news very soon!
