So did anybody test if they are taking new members now?
Since betfair won't make any moves to add new payment options it's time for me to find a new betting exchange. Betfair just doesn't go with the time and stay on the same stuff for a decade now.
As a person living in Japan they offer a whopping 3 (!!) options to choose from to fund the account, it's hilarious. And these options are as lame as credit card, bank wire and payz, which is a total joke company.
I have never tried fairlay, hopefully the market liquidity is somehow close to betfair. If so it might be a good alternative.
I don't know if they are accepting new members now, but I have been a member for a while and I felt that the liquidity is nowhere near Betfair's liquidity though it is decent especially on popular markets.
I suggest checking out Orbit exchange which is also similar to Betfair with great liquidities though you can only access them through agents like Betinasia etc.
