Casino bonuses or everything a newbie needs to know

To attract the attention of players, all casinos offer bonuses for the game and each casino has its own range of incentives. Let's try to figure out these unfamiliar words today: wager, reload and others. First deposit bonus.​ The overwhelming majority of online casinos offer a 100% bonus on the first deposit. Some casinos go even further and offer 200, 300, 400, there are even 700% bonuses. This is not an attraction of unprecedented generosity or an attack of altruism, this is the first pitfall of an online casino - the amount received will need to be wagered, that is, with the money received you need to make a certain number of bets in order to be able to withdraw funds from the account. The amount of bets is indicated as a multiplier for a number determined by this casino. This multiplier is called wager. For example, you made a deposit of 1 thousand rubles, received a 100% bonus on your first deposit. In total, you have 2000 rubles on your account. According to the casino requirements, let's say, wager x30. Accordingly, you must place bets for 30 thousand rubles (bonus 1 thousand multiplied by 30). The progress of wagering the bonus in serious establishments can usually be viewed in your personal account or in a special window. In extreme cases, you can contact the casino support. Normal establishments are usually interested in the convenience of the player and will not hide this information. Wager x30 is a very good offer, since although small, the player has an advantage and it is quite possible to win back such a wager. Unfortunately, such a wager is now a rarity. And seeing it, we happily rush to make a deposit, but in vain. Many online casinos disguise the second pitfall behind the magic numbers 30 or even x20-25. What's the catch this time? And in the fact that in brackets or in small print it can be indicated: x30 (bonus + deposit) or the wagering goes only on the player's money, and the bonus amount does not participate in the wagering. In the first point, the real wager will no longer be 30 thousand, as in our example, 60 thousand. Which is not so optimistic. With the wagering on your own, everything is clear - the casino simply takes away one of the advantages of the deposit bonus. In some casinos, despite the high wager (like in goldfishka casino), the advantage remains on the side of the player due to the fact that the bonus does not require wagering in full and completely, and if you are lucky with the game, then you can withdraw your hard-earned money, leaving the bonus money in the account (casino zigzag777), or simply canceling the bonus. Therefore, we read the rules and conditions of the bonus before we start making a deposit at the casino. And if the bonus conditions are too onerous, then either just look for a casino with suitable conditions, and we have enough of them in the reviews, or just refuse the bonus on the first deposit. If suddenly you did not find it or something remains unclear, then write to casinoforum.cf and the collective mind will solve all the questions. No deposit bonuses of online casinos. In the section with no deposit bonuses you can find many offers from online casinos that do not require an initial deposit of money. To activate a no deposit bonus, sometimes nothing is required except registration, and sometimes the casino wants us to dance with tambourines. Such as entering a bonus code for a no deposit bonus, entering a code upon registration, registering via a specific link, contacting support, installing separate online casino software and other conditions. The saddest and most tedious thing for a player is making a deposit for withdrawal. Whether the casino will withdraw or everything was started specifically for this deposit of yours can only be found out from other players. NB: our forum allows you to post your referral links in the section with no deposit bonuses, but the topic must be formatted according to all the rules and the affiliate must provide all kinds of assistance to players who registered using his link. In order not to spoil your mood and not waste time on a bonus that was not worth it: read all the conditions carefully, do not hesitate to contact support or our forum, ask questions in the topic where this bonus was posted and do not forget to read the comments. Regular and periodic bonuses of online casinos (monthly, weekly, etc.) Be sure to check the mail (not forgetting about the spam folder) with which you registered at the casino, because in order to attract players, the casino does not constantly send out mailings with offers. Some casinos send "letters of happiness" almost every day, some once a month. Usually they offer free spins or a deposit bonus, but there are also no deposit offers. Therefore, do not refuse the mailing ahead of time. If the percentage of the deposit bonus is indicated in the mailing, then this is a reload bonus from the casino (Reload Bonus). To receive this bonus, you need to make a deposit, and the amount will be credited exactly by the specified percentage. For example, a 50% reload bonus with a deposit of 1000 rubles will be 500 rubles. The account will have 1500. As in the case of a deposit bonus, this type of bonus has certain wagering conditions. Cashback from an online casino. Many casinos, so that you stay with them for a long time, make a refund of part of the money lost. There are casinos with daily cashback, there are weekly, there are monthly. The percentage of return can also be different. The main condition for receiving cashback is to lose. I would not want this, but it happens. And the return of part of the lost money is another chance to win. To receive cashback, sometimes you need to make a deposit, sometimes it is given for free. And the casino does not always notify that the money has been returned to the account. Therefore, if you know that the casino has such a practice, then check your accounts periodically, read the rules and conditions more carefully. There were cases when, due to a technical failure, the casino simply missed a player on the elephants distribution. Free games. Free spins (free spins bonus). Even more common than a deposit bonus. For a certain deposit or without, the casino gives a certain number of free games in the specified slot. It also usually has a wager, but there are also absolutely free offers. Usually this bonus is timed to coincide with the release of a new game, but there are casinos that give free spins on an ongoing basis. After receiving free games, you go to the slot and see a plate or a window with the number of free spins and the bet (the bet is usually the minimum for this slot). Agree to the terms, if necessary, and play this slot. The amount you win during free spins is the bonus amount on your account. Experienced players usually do not like to commit themselves to wagering their hard-earned money and refuse free spins. Unless, of course, it is a no deposit offer. Bonus for attracting new players. The bonus for a new player is available not only for affiliates. Some casinos have a "Bring a Friend" program. It happens like this: you send a friend a link to the casino (the link must contain your details, so a regular link will not work), your friend registers using it and makes a deposit. You receive part of this deposit to your account. Loyalty program (points for playing). In many casinos, when you place bets, you receive virtual points, which you can later exchange for real or bonus money. There are casinos that can even exchange points for goods, but this is rare. Usually, the longer you play at the casino, the more favorable the exchange rate. As you can see, there are plenty of casino bonuses. And this is just a general description.

FOR EACH BONUS you take = READ THE CASINO RULES

In general, he had an unpleasant situation at Loki casino. He has deposits in this casino in the amount of $1382, withdrawals in the amount of $1350. In principle, this is not the point, but the fact that he is a real active player and has never deposited less than $100 at Loki casino. He usually refuses bonuses, but here he deposited only $25 and took a bonus of $12.5, thinking that he would have to wager little. He wagered the bonus and put $700 on withdrawal and they say that he exceeded the allowed 5USD per spin!!! They wrote off the winnings up to the deposit of $25. And the player is such that he can deposit more than $1000 at a time. He stopped going to them and the other day they apparently sent him 30 bucks, to lure him back . Perhaps somewhere a player exceeded the bet, but I think it was possible to give such players a discount and not exchange their reputation for petty money for them. I heard that one got a win in such a situation, and then they started to be petty. From his stories I understood that even if he exceeded the betting limit, it was not with intent.

Why the hell, if you are a real player, do you even bother with bonuses? If you are not going to engage in bonus hunting, then the first thing you should do after registration is disable all bonuses. It may happen that you will get the jackpot or a big win, and you will simply be screwed by the bonus policy.

check the bonus rules for the WIN AMOUNT limitation vnk

I would be interested to see the face of a person who got $500+ from the $10 bonus slots and can only withdraw $30. This is probably the worst nightmare for a player.

check the bonus rules for the LIST OF ALLOWED SLOTS restriction Make sure you are playing a slot or game that is allowed for bonus laundering. check the bonus rules for the limit on the BET SIZE IN SLOTS Sometimes in games you AUTOMATICALLY cannot bet more than allowed per spin, but it also happens that the agreed maximum is $5 and the player has spun a couple of times for $6-9 and the casino REFUSES to acknowledge that the bonus has been laundered casinos that do this - to hell with it! Remember that when there is real money and bonus money on the balance, the real money is always written off first when you play.

Very correct information Thank you

lector2010 There are many strategies for wagering bonuses in casinos, but none of them allow you to play with bonuses in the black. If you are told otherwise, then either the casino made a mistake when calculating the bonus program, or you are being openly deceived. My approach consists of several simple steps: 1. Choose a non-dispersive slot that can give out a small win (x10-x30) quite quickly. Examples: Cloud Quest, 1429 Uncharted Seas, Toki Time, Nirvana (yggdrasil), etc. If you think about it, you can probably find many good options. 2. Play at a large (relative to the deposit) bet in the selected slot and increase the balance. I try to increase the balance to such a level that to wager the wager you need to wager the ENTIRE amount on the balance no more than 10 times. The less, the better, of course. 3. Play low-variance slots with good RTP, wager. 4. Withdraw money.
