They offer promotions, they offer certain things and they even had merchandise! (Well some of them has it)
As a Gambler How do you view these things? Is it worthy of a try? Or it's just a thing of the company to get more sales and money?

I don't usually care whatever gimmicks my gambling site produces for as long as they provide provably-fair gaming environment for everyone. Usually I see the promotions as something good as I benefit on most of them and actually take advantage of those promotions while they last. If there's no catch in using these type of promotions, I use it and get on with it, but if not then I don't really care.

I don't even care if they make more money on these types of markets as I understand that they are a business after all. Again, if they deliver the things they are there for, it doesn't really matter much to me whatever they do on their site as long as it doesn't harm anyone.

I also agree with you as long as they could keep up what they are created for then those markets or gimmicks wouldn't really bother the gamblers.
I see it as a way to gain more gamblers or to give back some of their profit to their gamblers so they would enjoy more on the gambling site.
I think most of us would agree that we are on the gambling site to gamble not for those promotions( at least most of us but there are gamblers who would just visit the gambling site because of the promotions).

The marketplace where merchandise are being sold, it's best to see it as a brand. It's easy for big companies to be recognized because of this and when a gambling site starts giving offers like t-shirts, caps, etc. it's for their benefit to be more recognized. That's how I see it and for me, that's a great thing because it's for improvement of the site and that's the rise of a good company and most of it is probably marketing stunts.

It's part of their marketing and these promotions for them is to increase their sales for example with the merchandise. It's phenomenal if the casino you're gambling with is very popular casino so it's like a badge that you can bring everywhere which they also take advantage for them to profit a bit.

And those sold merchs, they get to expand the viewership somehow through advertising as well although there's no specific target whoever will see the brand.

The company wants to get more sales and money, that is their reason to offer the promotions. I don't care about that because I don't try to get that merchandise from the gambling website because I think it is better to play gambling wisely. If you are trying to get promotions, you will spend more money because you want to get something that is not easy to do. But for some people, it is worthy of getting that because that can give them proudness among the other people, and they can show to other people that they can get exclusive merchandise from the gambling site. It depends on how people do with that promotions because every people will have a different reason.

It's all marketing, pretty obvious.

Yes, it's called marketing online gambling sites, in my country many members like that, they provide assistance to gambling players, if someone wants to be marketing an online gambling site, it's easy in my country, just create an account and give direction about gambling sites to others and enter them into the site and become a member of gambling sites.

In this case both get profits (marketing), can sell goods and get profits from the goods, and gambling sites have permanent member, so the site does not need to be difficult, to promote the site again, because there are already members who advertise.

Marketing income is not half-hearted in selling goods on gambling sites, they can generate hundreds of dollars in one day, this is a business that is now in high demand by many people in my country, while diving, drinking milk.

Its a psychological thing, why do you think it happens at every casino in Las Vegas.

Basically the first time I went there, there was crazy promos and deals at every casino. I remember one Casino had a Buffet dinner for like $7.77 or so. Another casino had a breakfast buffet for like $5 or so. Some casinos if you are a high roller they give you free rooms and free entertainment passes.

They do it because there are tons of casinos to gamble at, and they want to lure you into their's so they use these promos. The crypto casinos are no different. Promos are very important, especially when the site is new and starting out.

That is normal in every gambling sites to be aggressive on their marketing due to the tight competition in the crypto space.
yes, there's still more room to grow here for businesses like casinos but to be more profitable, they need to attract clients or gamblers and they do that with their aggressive promotion as well.

speaking of merchandise, I know a sports book that offers the same but they are pricey IMO.

you can check https://shop.spreadshirt.com/nitrogensports/

It's worth to try for two reasons and I will list them down below,

First imagine how many $ they can earn if more people will buy their product and it will continue to grow since the other player who doesn't have the item will get hype since they want to have the collectible item what the gambling site to offer.

And second the Gambling site will get a benefit in terms of marketing since you will make the buyer your walking advertisement since if he wears your shirt or whatever the item sold you will make it visible to the people who could see it, the more he travel the more eyes could see the name of the site and provably there are curious people will look on what is the content or where that item came from.

 that is all part of thier promotion to attract more customers  . as a customer to one of them i feel amaze because they treat us properly  . aside from the earnings that i get i also earn extra with the help of them  and this is one of the factors while i keep coming back to them for more  .  by the way , which gambling site offers apparell ?  is it sportsbet   ? because i see sportsbets before advertising football players with thier shirt on that has a sportsbet logo   . currently on the gambling site that i play on , they dont give merch for now but they are planning it soon    . so exciting to have them though ;)

If those promotions don't require you to spend much or you think it's worth i'd say give it a try because promotions with good rewards don't come in very often. I only avoid promotions if they have rollovers and other rules involved to make it difficult to win. Like everyone else said it's mostly for the money since they're aiming to bring in new gamblers.


I slightly disagree on this, there are gambling sites that attract a lot of gamblers on certain days just because they launch a promotion.

Honestly, I don't waste my time with these promotions since they just tempt us in different ways. I stick to gambling on my favorite games without bothering with these promotions though I do check them out when they require minimal to no investment on my part.

Merchandise is downright pointless though bonuses with low wagering requirements are worth checking. Never won anything big through these promotions. Always check the T&C behind these promos people.

By promotion, you mean advertisements? Like Signature Campaign and ads in football stadiums or rank promotion?
Well, I don't think I would buy and promote the merchandise unless it's safe(including for children) and not too difficult to win in the games I promote.

Gambling sites created for gamblers to play and not for whatever stuffs,so basically these are just a gimmick or extra profiteering from those sites because gambling business should be for Bets and not for sales  ;D
+ 1 for this.

I think that is for marketing purposes only as the first and foremost objective why a gambling site is created is to offer a platform to bet on for gamblers.Everything else is a side quest and the majority of the gamblers do not care at all for such offerings.

And I think it is somewhat a gamble for them whether they can provide themselves a good money or not. And sometimes I really think these business are just solely for marketing just like the other user said...

It's not the main source of income for a gambling company to create and sell merchandise. For them to be able to introduce such and develop expertise in their production and distribution would be costly other than profitable. I've also seen websites doing that but it's mostly via a third party provider, i.e. outsourced. I've only seen it done as part of a website that has a big community following like Seals with Clubs and often as a meme.

Other people were making merchandise on the name for fun, so the company might as well do it for their own profit to earn something extra on the side. The merch manufacturer can be based on a revenue model anyway, where they simply charge a high fee for every sale other than a set recurring fee or requesting a minimum production of units. So there's little risk this way.

I view this thing as a normal thing, they are in business so it's just right to find ways to gain exposure.

Just like normal casino in the forum, they pay people to wear their signature because they want to spread the information about their business in the forum and they are paying expecting they will get clients for that, that's marketing and that's just one way, since there are a lot of marketing strategy they are employing just to get gamblers to play on their site.

That's why they created that but I don't see any gambling site offering a merchandise promotion since the one I see is the exchangers but they are not selling it but instead they are giving it to the lucky winners as a part of their promotions. But everyone have different opinion unto this since same as you I don't really care about those merchandise since there's nothing we can do with that and provably the price is expensive and not worth to buy.

Different ways of promotions and marketings are normal for those who run a business. It's a way to attract customers and to gain profit. And for a gambler's point of view, it depends if it fits their criteria. If you think that marketing is worth it, then you can try it. We all have different perception so I really can't say whether promotions and merch are worthy. It depends on the merchandise and how they promote their site.

For me, I don't really look at those promotions especially merchandise because I don't think that merch will be useful to me. But some promotions, if I do think that it's worth it, I try to consider it. Its worth depends on individual gamblers but the common thing about this marketing strategy is for them to earn profit

i don't care about ads,i always dis regards those popping in my screen and not giving time to check whats on advertising in each sites because all i came is for gambling and nothing else.
i know that there are extra offering since sites are Business but for me?my business is gambling only,
exactly what it is,strategy to be specific to at least Gain another interest from players or maybe for diversion as well.

If you are a real avid fan of that site and you're into stuff they are selling you might see it as worth to try but if you are a person like me well then I think it will just be a waste of money.
Surely it is just for more sales and marketing, gambling sites are not the proper place to put those stuff but they need to for more sales because they are still many people who are willing to buy those.

no you are not going to pay for them afaik but they are only extra addons for the benefits or they can be in the form of giveaway for thos who are regular costumers on thier site  . you cant also buy those stuff on any other markets because those stuff are only exclusive for the gambling site .  so if you are a fan of the gambling site that your playing and want to get thier merch , the only way to do it is to play and bet more to unlock those    . there are also gamblers that dont care for those things but only care for the profit that they can win

In my opinion and base on my experience with gambling sites, there are 85% market strategies of a gambling sites that end up to their liking or them are just taking advantage of the weak self of gamblers, because gamblers often take the bait that only leading them to keep on playing and never realized that they are into getting back what they have gained from a certain free trial or Bitcoin or coins and thinking they will gain it back by playing is not a good mindset at all,

But there are certain 15% of the offers that are surely taking the privilege of worth in taking into account but be very vigilant to what is OK or not.

It really seems like a prize for the addicted users within their site...
Company: " that gambler is surely a hell of an addict "
Let's give him a reward so he can do more of a gamble!!!

...pretty much like that to me, am I wrong?

It is like an indirect promotion for a player to just gamble and gamble to their site.
Knowing that the gambler knows that he might get another reward aside from his possible winnings in a certain gambling site.
This way gambling sites can make players play more because of the extra reward they are giving and this can serve as a marketing strategy, Giving aways some merch and other stuff if you reach the requirement they made. It is more effective if it is a competition like wagering competition

So it is basically a way of a gambling site team to get more players to play on their gambling site and to earn more money from them. To me, it's not worthy unless you really like the extra reward they give.

I also often visit several well-known gambling sites that don't offer goods on their sites. I don't think gambling is a marketplace platform that continues to promote goods on websites.
Every promotion of their gambling site is always a way for the big jackpot and also with the lure of a bonus if they win with what has been offered.

Having a promotion in gambling sites are their marketing strategies to have more players in their gambling websites, because the more users then automatically, the more income for them as well. Promotions are the things that gamblers want in any gambling sites. It hooked up their attention when they hear the word promotions. Still, the bad stuff on having an advertisement on your gambling site is you may lose your users because there are persons that will only play on your site if there is a promotion, then if this thing has gone, they might leave your website.

But for me, I do not care so much about promotion because I am not so addicted to gambling. I only play when my friends to me to do so with them, but anyway, whatever their techniques, respect it, as long as it doesn't give adverse effects to anyone.

Some of these promotions are created to make you signup and try their free spins or so. For someone who has gambling addiction its going to be an irresistible promotion, free is free. I'm not rich but even if I am rich I'd take that free spin for another thrilling experience.

One good feature of gambling site which kind of a marketing strategy still is allowing gamblers to exchange their tokens to some crypto they offer like BTC to ETH or EOS or TRX. Gamblers in crypto are traders as well.

Besides the promotions and the giveaways, I'm looking more on the reputation and features of the gambling sites and what makes them different from the other online gambling casinos, the promotions and the giveaways are a way for new gambler to try the gambling site but what will make them stay is the reputation and features, so developer should concentrate on this area.

^ All of them are pretty obvious that it is the marketing strategy of course. In order to lure gamblers and probably will stay on their platform, they offer certain promotions. Just like a faucet, free spin, and giveaways. Sometimes they have a wagger contest that makes users more active to compete other players. As a gambler, always find the provably fair system in every gambling platform you have been chosen. Because you know there is nothing bias between the gambling platform and the user. Nevertheless, verifying is the best way to find out.

I think it's worthy of a try, you might never know how lucky you might have been unless you try them surfer they don't cost you that much or any loss, it's a go for me. Personally I enjoy promotion and free bonuses at casino than anything else. There was once a time I never gambled at a sites that doesn't have a welcome bonus and that's was one of the many reason behind my quiting traditional gamble houses to patronize crypto related gamble sites (not because there was no welcome bonus but that of the cryptocurrency related projects were mouthwatering and legit).

These promotions are both beneficiary to both the gamble companies and customers therefore I don't see anything wrong with them unless they're false promotion used to decieve the general public.

I can see this as promotions to entice or encourage gamblers to try their site and I think that it is good because gambling sites are trying to give back some to the players and not just getting all the profit for themselves.  And if ever I see some promotions interesting I am always open for trying them out.  That is if the budget of my bankroll fund permits.

Its one of the main factors that should be considered out if you do have business which is on marketing.It must have the exposure it needs
for it to gain people or users into the site or place.Its totally different or you can compare on which does have a promotions, stuff etc. to those who
havent.Its business and they need to generate income and its normal for them to risk on putting budget with those.My view? I agree on one point
above that as long the site is provably fair, i dont see these things to be on the way.

Giving a try won't bother a thing, and who knows? It might be worthy at some point in time. Besides isn't it boring staying still on your seat not trying some other stuff? Might as well explore around, and may be such stuff would bring you a whole different thing that you'll just get in a limited time they offer it. Although, had no doubt, it was an obvious marketing but there is always something behind that marketing stuff though chances to get the main prize or whatever it is, is so low. And addition, sometimes these chances are the thing tht always been ignored, since by default we tend to do our usual stuff/cycle.

Sites reputation itself would already tell you out that the site is provably fair which means you dont have to worry in regards to the results as long you do know its fair then you are confident that there would be chances for you to take advantage into those promotions as expected there would be a specific requirement regarding to that which isnt surprising.They wont give out promotions if they do put themselves into the bad side.
It always matter on making money by luring out player by means of those promotions and as said, all things are part of marketing stuff which is same as usual.

All of it not more than just marketing strategy and worthy or not but it have to be tried and currently the compete between gambling sites was very tight because large number of new gambling sites has been appears for each day and all of them want to recognized as the popular so the gambling sites will do every ways to achieve their target and promotions is required but indeed not all ways have been successfully and some of them lost to compete and disappears

Giving an offer to people who plays in their gambling site is a part of their advertisement. I think, buying things they sell is not a bad idea, they just need to make their people trust their site and be fair in the internet world or environment. With this techniques they can really gather more sales and money, maybe they can use their acquired money to improve their gambling site and the gambling experience of the players.

burn money (promotions) that a co-corporation or new company will definitely do to attract the interest of many people.  not only gambling sites or companies that do this, currently, but many Youtube and Instagram influencers are also promoting their accounts by giving "Giveaway" to their followers.

They offer a lot promotion, thats why many players become interested to it, some of them are worth it but still theres a few are worthless. Much better to know it before you play. Only thing to remember is to have discipline when playing and do it only for entertainment not a hobby especially to those starting to gamble.

No harm trying them all out, it's free I received a promotion on some of the gambling sites where I have an account and playing, promotions are good it's a good way to tell that they are allocating a portion of their profit for giveaways and merchandise, top gambling casinos are doing that to their loyal customers and new clients.

I don't want to mention here the gambling brand which has been accused as a scam site but these guys have a great range of promotions. The crypto marketplace and live casino with great cashback rate make it kinda unbearable, the free game choices are second to none for the new customers. Anyway, regarding the bottom line, it is all about lucrative promotions and marketing gimmicks.

You must need all the marketing strategies to stay competitive. This is the reason most gambling houses keep on conducting various contests and promotions. You must have plans to keep your gamblers within you and you must keep on attracting new people to try to house to make them permanently gambling with you. It is definitely worth for the spending money. Without advertisements, no business could survive.

Let's take freebitco.in as an example. They are having daily and monthly wagering contests and right now they are running their second Lambo promotion. Crypto-games.net must be another good example for running signature campaign for years. Their's is the longest running campaign so far. Without achieving expected results, these houses will not spend money blindly.

I really feel for those who might actually buy these clothing with the logo/brand of the gambling website because even though you don't mind gambling but wearing such things must be very shameful for anyone in my opinion.

Yes I do feel the promotions are worth it as long as there are no 500 times wager attached with them with slots being the only counting games because that is like wasting time, energy and sometimes money too. Though there are some good promotions in market like sportsbet I remember used to offer 6 mbtc free bet while FortuneJack offered 10 mbtc free bet and these offers are worth it for me!

Why would it be shameful? Can't you be proud that you've been part of that Casino and winned a number of times? But in regards of losing well yeah, you should be ashamed yourself especially you should already feel bad about it enough to throw that merchandise ✌😂

They would really need up to consider on having those promotions because i dont see other things that are needed for a business to last without having that proper promotions or events.
We know that people do easily get hooked up when it comes to bonuses or promotions where most people do look at this as an advantage for them but it doesnt work that way
yet we have seen on how these promotions do have ridiculous wagering requirement and it isnt easy to reach that threshold and if you arent lucky enough then you do lost your money
while reaching that out.

Most big companies do it because it allows clients to stay longer and explore. People are explorers and they like to be entertained so the more you offer them the more they will do on your site.

Selling merchandise is buildin the brand. Somebody buys that cheap mug and takes it to work or offers tea to a visitor and you could have a new potential client. For the company it's money well spent, for you not so much.

Look there are certain reasons why people do buy it, suppose you had won a big amount on any gambling website and/or you just love the website for example no matter what happens my love for primedice will never die so if I have to spend a few bucks to get their merchandise or collectibles then I would be happy to do so.

You may be right but I feel in more cases there would be a huge discount of these merchandise because selling their brand they also get free marketing when the customer uses it.

For me market seem it having a lot competition in each gambling site because of many people get interested to it. Also ot seem lot of promotion to get the attention of players, and I think its a good thing happen in the market because most of them are worth it. Basically when market continue to be like that then surely gambling  sites will become more popular even more.

I'm not a gambler so I'm not getting attracted into all of these advertisements of different gambling sites.
In the advertisement world, it is only a matter of how good are you in clickbaiting the people :D.

Overall, I'm not attracted into it whatever they do. Maybe some of the gamblers are getting baited with their promotions until they will try that site.

Provably fair is very important if you are running a game like dice, that's the basic requirement, otherwise people would gamble on a site that is just created to cheat gamblers. Although some of the site are not license but people are looking more on the reputation and they are willing to risk money when they site's reputation is good, and by the way, in sports betting there's no provably fair, what we like to see is a competitive odds. 

To gather more costumers, they will do lot of things.

I also don't care about the promotions. I gamble at one site, and I don't get attracted by those offers. The important thing is that I could gamble free; as long as they have faucets, I would stay at that site for a long time.

In my case it would be worth to try because there is no thing we can lose of on just trying it, what if is this is just only one of the many marketing strategy of the company? The thing is we can just try it and have the merchandise that the gambling sites is issuing with.
It would probably be good because we already help on the company to make there sales and also we get some merchandise that we can use with, I can call it as a win win situation for this.

Every business need new customers. Think gambling as any other business which do many promotions to advertise it. Gambling sites also do promotions to gain the attention of the gamblers. Let me give you one example. Almost all of the sites give bonus to new signups, why ? because they want that the new gamblers to make up the accounts on their sites and wager using their site.

These are common marketing strategies these days in order to get the attention of people. Giveaways and promotions are what young people and users want these days because people are usually unable to get hands on expensive products that they aspire for. Those who do not follow such marketing plans are not popular.

Gambling sites have hyped in the last couple of years by the introduction of online gambling casinos. People now don’t have to leave their homes to gamble and they don’t have to stay away from horrible people in order to avoid brawls etc. promotions are the backbone of marketing and gambling sites need them for attracting players.

They are doing it in order to market their sites and gather huge amount of users or gamblers but for me I didn't care much about it unless I can get some benefits to it. What I am after with the gambling sites are their unique games that will help me to ease my loneliness as I only gamble just to fade my loneliness or I don't have something to do.

In terms of benefits, some of the gambling promotions are also giving it so I always check it whether it is very simple to avail or not because if I can easily avail it then it is worth a try in my side.

There are so many ways to market new gambling sites to attract users or gamble in their promotions so that what they offer makes gamblers curious and glance at it. I do not know that gambling sites sell goods or products and usually only do big promotions at the opening of the website many gambling games and also the big jackpot on offer that are the curiosity of gamblers so that promotions like this are in great interest

Some gambling platforms offer incentives, promos, events, prizes, and contests to their avid platform users to attract potential users or even to let incentivize those who are loyal to their platform. This is one of the best ways of marketing gambling platforms.

not only for avid platform users but also to those who wants to try their site,giving free rolls and other free offers is what they try to give as incentives.

and also there are airdrops and in the new strategy is giving tips in their telegrams so players can bet for free though it is only small amount but enough to play .

If there are any prescribed way of marketing for gambling houses then I guess no business on gambling will fail but we do see lots of houses go bankrupted; it means marketing must need to be done along with studying gambler's expectations. Without fulfilling what gamblers are expecting, spending any huge level of money for marketing will not fetch any good results.

I mean all the promos and campaigns should be based on gambler's demand rather than conducting them on regular routines. When gambling houses are able to create hype and making gamblers frequent to their houses then hitting consistence success with gambling business might be easier than we are thinking.

All casino do this to attract customers ofcourse, and with so any casino in Las Vegas it's no wonder you will see crazy promotions anywhere because they all want gamblers to gamble in their casino. Also with the tight competition between them then they will have to come up with something that will make them different from the others because if they will not give promotions then customers will not patronize them.

Yes why not it's free they are giving it to gambler to attract more players to use their platform more than their competitor, gambling sites are doing this from time to time specially those new gambling sites, I receive bonus and promotional bonus from time to time from gambling site where I have an account.

At least, we can get something free from them, which we can use to start playing gambling. The gambling website will always use that way to attract more and more people to come to their site, and if people satisfied with the site, people will deposit more money, and that means the owner of the gambling website will make more profit from their members. As long as the gambling website can manage their promotion, more people will come to them and play the games.

Yeah but only when you meet their expectations whilst playing on their Gambling Platform. But if not then nothing is free, and you'll just have to buy it if you wanna have some of those too.

it can be the reason no one knows right?

but if they are really doing this to give favor for Gamblers?then this is indeed because in addicted gambler there's no care what or how much winning he had important thing is they can at least win .

but that is really stupidity in part of the company.

Dumb to gamble - made for you to loose your money.  Thank you.  You're welcome.

Actually, at most of the cases, it's not "free".

Promotional bonuses or whatever sort of bonus do have a pre-requisite.

Nothing new here as it's a part of marketing strategy. But in general, here in the crypto-gambling world, even how interesting the promotions are, there are still gambling sites that having a hard time attracting users on their platform. Why? Because aside from these good offers, gambling sites should think of something special or so-called "game-changer" to somehow keep up with the competition. Gamblers aren't really looking into promotions or bonuses as the main criteria for considering using a platform. It's just a bonus for them while enjoying the said unique features they see on the said site.

I almost never take advantage of gambling site promotions, especially ones like deposit bonuses, because the strings attached with them usually involve a minimum wager requirement that I usually never reach because of the way in which I gamble, though I suppose if that's something interesting to you and you've got a strategy that's better suited than mine, then go ahead.

As for physical merchandise, I'm not the biggest fan of that either. I like the sites that I play on, but I'd never openly advertise that I play on them. These things are all ways that casinos get their names out on the Internet more at the end of the day.

Just another way to suckered more money out of those gamblers, lol.

As far as casinos that I usually play offline, they have this so called "freebies" merchandise, you can claim them if you reach enough points in your gambling "card". So it's not really free, you still have to gamble on their casino reach some certain points to be able to get the merchandise that you wanted.

So this is just marketing ploy and gimmicks from them to get you to play and lose more.

It's company's way to get more client and sales every gambling site are doing it from time to time, always gets promotion offer from some of the gambling sites I'm playing, I tried some of them but it entice me to upgrade to the next level or deposit, most of the promotion are all about deposit bonus.

Promotions, bonuses and other ideas of a gambling sites is one of their way to attract gamblers to play in their site.
Usually, there is a "must do" or a requirements too in return to get their promotions. Example, minimum required deposit with cashback, etc. 

But for me, the most significant thing I am looking for a partucular gambling site is the fairness. Some said they are provably fair but obviously not if you try to play on their site. Also, the fast withdrawals and deposits matters too.

This is the purposes of promotion, company will do everything they can to make people join and stay in their site with money and fun as the real magnet. I don't blame any company about how fair they increase sales and money but so far the key is the player it self. When the player set his mindset all activity is about money, they will loss and company try to built that mindset. Avoid give away and welcome bonus, safe your money for your future.

They have more promos to attract gamblers as that is really the priority of the gambling sites, they want more volume of gamblers to play in their site so they will continue to exist and remain profitable. I think I am not so aggressive with participating into promotion now, maybe when I was new I am but now I am more focus on improving my strategy as this would help me to last longer.

I really can't tell whether how that works on Gambling sites? As a gambler how can you tell if its provably fair or not? From my perspective whenever you bet something big it will automatically have a big percentage on the losing side LoL.

don't visit gambling section if you are not  into gambling because no one cares about your agony here.
even if you bet smaller still Losing side is ours mate because as a gambler we should known that,but yet we are still here because we are enjoying and losing is just a payment for our happiness like what we did when we watched movies or go to parks.

Promotions are something that every gambling site must do to get more members to come. But for new members, they will give big promotions because they want to give some special for the new members. And yes, for the old members, they need to pass their requirements to get the promotions. Some of the gambling websites often send me invitations to their site with some promotions but with terms and conditions.

I am sure that every gambling site which has huge members will be fair, but as you said, we don't know if that is real or not. But personally, I never think about that because I don't chase for the winning, and I feel that playing gambling is just for killing my free time.

It has always been about money. But money is not something that gambling sites can earn easily, especially with the growing competition among physical casinos and online casinos and betting sites. They must also have something good to offer. More than anybody else, they are aware that there are always more than a handful of choices. But the initial goal is that people will be attracted even only to the point of trying their services. That is always the first step. Even the signature campaigns here promoting gambling sites. They are only basically saying "give us a try." Everything starts from there. If those who try are impressed with their features, UI, UX, and so on, they might stick around for a while.

I have also tried a few sites but not because of the merchandise as I haven't received a single one yet. But still, it is about marketing. I got curious. I guess making people curious is one of the first few steps of a marketing strategy.

Trying isn't a bad thing for us in order to determine which of those gambling sites could give your the desired profit that you're looking for. The company whose driven with goals, always find ways to get more sales and money is always a big reason for that. Some promotions attracts a lot of users, but we can't rely all alone with gambling due to losses tend to occur every time.

It seems that these promotions are just like band-aids, they tend to ease the pain from big loss, a compensation mayhe but still can't tell whether it is helpful tonus for it will be just an another reason to make another big loss.


It is quite an easy money for them though.

I try the free way by using discount and referral link, word free can't make me move into better financial that I imagine. Promotion can't make me think normal and focus about money and money again. Even I know many promotion with free way I will never recommended into anyone because I know the real thing about the effect. Not worth to follow and it just company way to create new user with fresh fund for their site, go now and block their site from your browser.

As someone who joins in several promotions imo it's more on the recovery part rather than having another loss in the near future. Also it depends on the gambler since i've seen some that won't stop playing until they had enough or most likely lose it all.

Not really. Well, casinos are basically designed to earn and earn and earn. But before coming to that point, which is already a success stage in other words, it also needs a lot of money. The money is needed to make sure that the casino stands out, is being marketed well and smooth to the right people, offers juicy bonuses and freebies, and so on. If after all this, the casinos fail to even attract gamblers, they will go bankrupt. But if they succeed, they will become the money-making machines that they're supposed to be.

I guess there are already casinos that died along the way. Well, even Trump's casino business did not make it to success.

The competition is very stiff, and gambling casinos always look for the upper hand and attention from gamblers and one of the easy way is to launch a promotion, bonus, and giveaways the most popular bonus these gambling casinos are offering are the bonus deposit, sometimes offering 100% bonus deposit, it's very tempting and most of the time it works.

For me promotions, giveaways and jackpot prices are a plus these show that the gambling site itself has a lot of funding and wont scam their customers (the gamblers). Especially promotion (ie in Bitcointalk they launched a campaign and ANN) this increases their reputation knowing that my money is safe playing with their site.

Well, such promotions is obviously part of the marketing strategies that gambling sites do commonly to attract and caught the attention of the potential players to try diving in to their site. Well such promotions are really interesting and worth a try because it is just basically for a limited time frame so it will be good to at least try to see the efficiency and experience playing gambling on that site. But we should always be picky and play with precaution because such gambling site might be promising to offer such promotions but some are just doing it to obtain hidden agenda so it will still be best to see and check first the legitimacy of the gambling site before deciding to play along such gambling site.

If they have ANN and a campaign here, people must give feedback there. Once there is something wrong with the gambling site, it will be a big issue/news in this forum and the ANN will be full of critics. So, they must keep their reputation and good performance. Moreover, there are many competitors, it should be a strong consideration to be always improving their performance + reputation.

The media promotions such as merchandise, free spin, or a free bonus for deposit can attract more customer to come to their website. The gambling website will have an opportunity to get many new members that will try to play the games.

As a gambler, that will be worth to try, especially if you are curious with every new gambling website so you will try to play any games on their site. But we should be careful because we don't know if they are really good or not to serves their members as they still need to maintain their site from any of problem that can happen to their website.

That can help the website to get more sales and of course, more money if many gamblers come to their website because some gamblers will try to deposit some amount to test their games, and if somehow, they can feel comfortable with the site, they will stay to play the games for a long time.

yeah i remeber some sites that already gain reputation . they have ann thread , they buy ad packs , they set up campaigns ,etc and they perform good throughout the year but one day they just collapse all of a sudden and people start claiming them as a scam site  . eventually their domain got removed and they stop responding on here  .  im not saying all good sites can also lead this but if a site is honest they will try to resolve serious issues and will advance warn each other if ever they cant continue running the site anymore

I am now inclined to know about this markets as well as their affiliates, I wonder which sites has this both and even enables gambling players to join their affiliate programs, because in my current camoaign thry don't allow players to be part of the affiliates. Though sometime before, and was mentioned by Bitiny, it was allowed until an update has come and deletes their accounts. LoL

I see the markets on gambling sites as a marketing strategy to please gamblers. These strategies serve to increase the interest of the users, they are effective in making the casino known and increasing the number of gamblers.
I remember that in my city, casinos raffled each time a car.

Even in an industry that doesn't focused on gambling but production and services, they use marketing strategies. That is because it attracts people, demand and profits. Bitcoin and gambling casinos do it more often that is because I see the competition harder because there is allot of competitors having their own respective gambling sites. So, the market of gambling is quite simple, they spend millions in advertisements, promotions, and other stuffs, in return, more gamblers play in their platforms, more cryptocurrency is circulating and it just cycles over and over again.

How to look at gambling sites and trade in goods often happens in my country, it's side money, besides playing on certain gambling sites.

the important thing is they are honest and transparent in promoting goods that are suitable for us to have why not, just try it, it might be useful for us.
What more can these items be at stake in a bet, if you do not have money / crypto to bet there are items that can be guaranteed.

And sometimes it will come to Scam section or reputation thats why they must maintain their good reputations and their good action when there are some issues regarding their sites.
If you want to Lure players then you must be aware on how you will get peoples attention and this is one way of doing such.

Which campaign are you part of exactly? All sites I know have some form of affiliate programs. Most just call it referrals. If there's a site without one, they're losing out big on those big referrers.

Anyway, I don't know if I'm ever attracted by special markets. I'm a boring football bettor.

I don't care about their promotions and other gimmicks as long as they are honest to their players and reputable, I would love to play there. And as long as their platform have a decent user interface and it's easy to use it's okay to me. The no. 1 thing that I look on every online casinos are there reputation if it's clean then it's good. Right now I am playing at cloudbet and primedice, I am playing on does two gambling website for years and no plan to switch cause they have everything what I am looking for, they are reputable and have cool games.  ;D

Well, those markets on a gambling site are still an advertisement. Advertisement's main goal is to attract customers and if possible make them loyal to them. These advertisements may also show the stability of the company or the site that may give everyone the idea that it is not a scam and security is fully secured. But at the end of the day it still a business that you may be enticed of what they offer, --indeed, there will still be something for them in return.

It's pretty uncommon for the markets to be affiliated with the gambling sites, it is just a commercial that has nothing to do with gambling but if there is one that I can tell that have any connection to gambling that is popping out on the side of your screen then it will always about lectures on how to be a good player despite the game you are playing on. For you guys it might look attractive for you if you are interested, but  Honestly I don't want to recommend hitting those links.

Merchandise, such as t-shirt, is important if the casino has a strong community since it acts as an identity to make its users proud. If x casino is considered exclusive and only the rich play there, then wearing x casino t-shirt will make you feel rich! ;D

However, sometimes nice t-shirts also attract users to the site. It's like chicken and egg problem, definitely correlation, but maybe not causation.

Right, not just feel rich but proud as well. Just imagine you walking with some Las Vegas casino t-shirt in your local community, others might look at you as being a big time gambler. Even our local casinos here has this some sort of 'exclusively'. You have to earn some points, redeem it from coffee mugs to T-shirt to jackets, very good promotion.

I think that affiliation of gambling sites to third-party market is not bad at all, it is just an advertisement for what they are selling. If you are the owner of the gambling site then it is in your advantage that there are markets that are willing to affiliate to your site, that means that your site will be paid in part because you are allowing an advertisement of their market to your site, this is not inherently wrong though, but if you bombard your site with too much advertisement from different affiliate markets then that would be a problem for the visitors or players on your site because it distracts them albeit subconsciously. In the end it is not about the affiliation of the gambling sites to a market, it is with their services quality that we are there and the fun they offer in the first place, as long reputation and services then no problem at all.

Well the gambling games they offer are really nice and mind challenging, in fact i've already tried several of them and in my experience some are fun to play with good amount of return and some are not with low chance of winning.
This industry will be successful no matter what circumstances are in my opinion because people are greedy and always want to find easy money and gambling sites offers that.

I'm not sure if gamblers have a small community to show off their wealth in public unless they are just servants of a great gambler or just bodyguard. If you are an e-sports gambler, then they have a community and support in each of those matches.

Perhaps, in one city which has a lot of people who gamble in the casino, they make a small community to share anything they want. So if they can have the merchandise from the big casino place, that will make them proud because not all gamblers can enter to that place. Or they can wear the merchandise when they are in the public area so that they can help the promotions from the casino too. The casino itself will take the benefits from that because many people will curious with the place, and perhaps, that can make them visit that casino.
