I have set up an account if it may be easier for you to get your money in.
Amazon is using their payment system very much like Paypal now. They do not charge a fee unless selling a product when sending money. I have not read or seen any issues with using them for fantasy sports. You will need to set up account then be verified just like paypal before you can send or receive any money.
