Fantastic Freebies
PERHAPS THE BIGGEST advantage online casino sites enjoy over their in-laws, traditional 'brick & mortar' casinos, is that Internet gambling websites can better afford to offer their guests a wider range of free goodies. After all, developing and operating an Internet gaming site is considerably less costly than a land-based casino. Mucho less amigo!!!
Deposit Match Bonuses
The most prominent of all freebies are the huge cash bonuses often advertised in one form or another by online casino sites. These are specifically designed to entice you to download a casino's gaming software, deposit money and commence betting. These deposit bonuses are often the deciding factors by which players ultimately choose at which casino sites to gamble.
A quick look at various "Deposit Match Bonuses" or "Sign-Up Bonuses" (whatever), and you'll discover that they're available in all shapes and sizes. A note of caution however: Don't be taken in by what an online gaming site "seems" to be offering; The ways in which these bonuses are offered can be misleading as there are always conditions applied to these giveaways. For example, a casino may offer to match your initial deposit by 200% up to a maximum of $700. Sounds pretty enticing huh? Well, what's not always obvious is that, in all probability, prior to being allowed to collect your bonus, you will also be required to bet a certain amount of cash in order to qualify for your bonus. You could also be obligated to wager this minimum required amount within a specific period of time. Therefore, always, always, ALWAYS read the Terms & Conditions posted on a casino's website before leaping for what could turn out to be a bogus bonus.
Sign-Up Bonuses
"Sign-Up Bonuses" are pretty clear-cut. You are awarded 10, 20, or 30 bucks for simply signing on with a casino. Often you're not even required to deposit any money, which brings us to our next fantastic freebie.
Play-4-Free Games
You read it right. Today, any worthwhile online casino allows you, and even encourages you, to enjoy playing your favorite gambling games absolutely free. No risks and no losses! But no mega-dollar jackpots either. That's the deal. This Play-4-Free option is also a terrific way for newcomers to a site to experience and familiarize themselves with a casino's games before wagering a nickel. Folks, you won't find any land-based casinos dealing this sort of free fun.
Refer-a-Friend Bonuses
Other fashionable freebies include cash bonuses commonly known as "Refer-a-Friend" (aka Tell-a-Friend, Sell-a-Friend, Exploit-Your-Mates-For-Money) programs by which you collect a commission for turning your gambling buddies on to a specific gaming website. Just about every online casino, well, any one worth mentioning, offers cash gifts typically ranging anywhere from $10 to $50 per friend. Some websites pay a percentage, like 20 percent of your friends' first deposit, for example.
Deposit Method Bonuses
The majority of Internet casinos offer you a wide selection of anywhere between 5 and 10 (and sometimes more) cash processing services to facilitate depositing funds into your casino account. Some of the more popular processors are FirePay, Click2Pay and NETeller. A number of casinos will also reward you for depositing through a particular processor, or processors, depending on the casino's promotion at the time. These bonuses/incentives/sweeteners are usually worth $10 to $20.
A deposit bonus could also be based on a percentage, say a 10% bonus where, for instance, if you deposit $100, you're awarded an extra $10 for utilizing a processor that's being promoted. Naturally, limits such as "up to $100" generally accompany these deals.
Loyalty Points
Similar to an airline frequent flyer program, a growing number of online casino establishments now reward their players through a points system. Basically, the more you play, the more points you get.
When you accumulate enough points you may redeem them for cash and other gifts. Some of the bigger casino organizations operating a network of online casino sites provide a consolidated points programs whereby you are permitted to collect points from one casino and redeem them at another online casino belonging to the network.
So there you have it; online casino freebies galore. Are you getting yours?
