So I'm looking to implement a tournament with members from a gaming site I'mn. Most are from the US and some are in Canada and Australia too. I'm trying to figure out a good way to have everyone put money into a pot online then disperse to the winners with gift codes to Amazon, Steam or whatever I can make work.

Anyone have any experience with this?

Thanks

Using paypal would seem to be easiest to me. You can use that directly to buy stuff off of steam, but Amazon doesn't take it as a payment method. You could still transfer the money to your personal bank account and just use a CC to buy Amazon gift cards though.

I've seen lots of tournaments, contests, etc. that used paypal to gather the funds, so I guess it works well enough.
