You'll need to have hundreds of referrals to make it worthwhile. I have more than a hundred refs on my freebitco.in account and only 1 of them is still active but I am lucky because he is constantly making bets, selling FUN tokens etc and generating me some nice sats every week. I agree with you in general though. Somehow I manage to collect these refs in the past but I probably wouldn't do it today because it is not worth my effort. Making money this way is not very time efficient.
You are very lucky to have referrals that are still active until now, but you can collect more referrals until now because the feebitcoin gambling platform is still active and you only need to improve your ability to attract new enthusiasts, I also had several referrals at that time but unfortunately I lost access to that wallet because my pc broke and lost some important data.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

If you do have some sort of TG group or Twitter that does have lots of followers or have that Youtube channel which does have lots of subs then you would definitely be able to make money more if you do know on how to utilize up these numbers.It is really just how smart you would be but of course attaining this state specially getting followers arent something a feat that anyone could pull off. Spamming out your links over the internet might do but it wont really be an assured thing that you could be able to achieve that one.This is why its up to yours whether you would be pursuing on finding referrals or you would
really be taking the another path.

Not many can have such good following. But I have seen some users here in the forum that do really earn something from referrals.
Also, not all of your followers are into gambling. But if you do have, why not try to promote the gambling site that you are fairly active with.
No harm done, whether you got them or not as affiliate. This is just a bonus for playing on the site, so don't expect too much out of it.
This is like one of the perks you can get from playing on their site and inviting some of your colleagues.

Referral bonus tasks are not for everyone, most of these bonuses are calculated based on how much those you referred have deposited on the online casino or how many times they have played some games on the casino, gone are the days where all you have to do is refer people and as they sign up on the platform your referral bonus will be credited to you, for someone who has fewer friends that are into online gambling this is a waste of time like OP said, you are better off with other dividend opportunities available on online casinos.  
Only people familiar with the referral link can get new people to join under it. They know how to find these new people and where to spread the referral link. But for people who want to learn how to spread referral links, you can also try it so they can find out that spreading referral links is not easy. And if they feel that it is difficult, they don't need to try it and it's better to play gambling as usual.
Well, everyone has still its freedom in gambling. You can make some referral bonuses and make an advantage on them later, but you can also just focus on your games and never mind people that are asking you for some links. With that, you are preventing yourself not to be blame in the future. It’s good to give referrals especially if that person will wager high because you’ll also benefit from it but be considerate also as to whom you are giving your referrals because they might not know how to manage their emotions the moment they start losing from gambling, same like be careful as to what kind of casino you are referring them to as it might be a non reputable one and they might only get scam when they start to deposit their money.

You are correct, @Crypt0gore. Of course, no business wants to run a loss in their company, so a referral bonus cannot be granted when people referred to casinos are not using the platform or have not made any deposits. If it was allowed to go in a way that referrals just need to create an account and their referee will just get credited the bonus, then it will give rise to cheating because most people will abuse the opportunity by using different emails to create the account just to earn the bonus. The way it is now, one really has to do a lot of convincing to make sure their referrals register, deposit, and bet for them to earn the bonus.

If you arent that minding about bonuses in getting from those referrals or affiliate then it wont really be that creating that kind of eagerness on getting one.You could simply just put up your link and suggest if ever
there's someone who is really that interested on playing gambling.If ever you do get one then its good but if there's no one then its just fine.As long you arent expecting something then you wouldnt really be having that kind of disappointment inside since you arent expecting it. Its just a bonus if you do really get someone under your link, additional or bonus coins arent that bad either
since you could make use of them but it depends on how much they do wager.

We are talking about referral bonuses not the age allowed by the casino to play.  It is indeed f*ck*d up when a 5 year old kid is allowed to play in a casino platform.  And yes these casino influencers is the one to blame why many minors are enticed to gambling activity.  I think social media platfrom and streaming platform should have way in determining the age of their viewers. (damn, why I am thinking KYC on a gambling streaming platform LOL)
The problem was on the kid's parent. The parent has been facilitating him to watch or even play casino. If the parent will able to give a good parenting to the his kind and 5years old should not be allowed to have gadget. This to make sure if the kid will able to avoid that kind of problem. You can still watch gamblers at youtube which can be accessed by so many under age person who have got bad parenting from their parents. 

Referral will not even worthy if we have only a few referrals. The casino platform sometimes was just making the requirements even harder to be claimed. Influencer will prefer to be affiliator. For people who had no big name and referral is the only way to get additional money.

You are correct, @Crypt0gore. Of course, no business wants to run a loss in their company, so a referral bonus cannot be granted when people referred to casinos are not using the platform or have not made any deposits. If it was allowed to go in a way that referrals just need to create an account and their referee will just get credited the bonus, then it will give rise to cheating because most people will abuse the opportunity by using different emails to create the account just to earn the bonus. The way it is now, one really has to do a lot of convincing to make sure their referrals register, deposit, and bet for them to earn the bonus.
business is to earn so yes they will never give any single amount not unless there is already a money flowing in their side and that means business for the team.
referral is for them to earn and for those who advertise the referral is something part as peanut to be given.
in that sense this is a win win situation for the team and for us? it is just a pocket money.

You'll need to have hundreds of referrals to make it worthwhile. I have more than a hundred refs on my freebitco.in account and only 1 of them is still active but I am lucky because he is constantly making bets, selling FUN tokens etc and generating me some nice sats every week. I agree with you in general though. Somehow I manage to collect these refs in the past but I probably wouldn't do it today because it is not worth my effort. Making money this way is not very time efficient.
You are very lucky to have referrals that are still active until now, but you can collect more referrals until now because the feebitcoin gambling platform is still active and you only need to improve your ability to attract new enthusiasts, I also had several referrals at that time but unfortunately I lost access to that wallet because my pc broke and lost some important data.
having hundreds of referrals is a very large number, imagine if all of them were active, of course you would get regular income at the casino with just referrals without bothering, but unfortunately there are only a few of your referrals that are active.
I'm not surprised that the old people here have had so many referrals in the past because there weren't many casinos here and there were lots of gamblers here so it was very easy to spread referrals to get people to register with our referrals.
but now the development of online gambling has increased and there are so many casinos that are here and outside the forum that it is a little difficult to refer someone to register using our referral link.

i gained too many referrals but no active referral, through advertising on PTC sites, and i also won bonuses for referring them but the bonus was very hard to claim like too many terms and conditions are their , like you need to wager this much x to claim this bonus, and the referral should be active, etc.
i not earned real money just money their written that this is your bonus and a non clickable claim button at the bottom of the bonus,
and some site give bonus like my referral will deposit then you will get, some percentage of their deposit amount and some bonuses are like getting percentage of their website earning through referrals ,
if you have  a good gambling related niche blog or youtube channel then you can convince users to make an account on that site, and in that way you have high chances to earn though referrals.

and for me the process was very hard to claim the bonus but finally i don't claimed any of the bonus, because, for active referral we need to be a good  influencer in a way.

It's really waste if you're doing referral, I experienced it because I try some gambling site and they have referral(bonus coin) and it's not worth it. For example, you need to invite like 50 people to get $15 worth of coin. See? Everything now is not free so work hard for yourself and don't waste your life doing referral or some things just to get freebie with no value.

Any person that want to go for referrals bonus would have to have a community or group where he can drop his link for any other interested gamblers to check the link and join the casino. This is not easily done without having a community that you support you and likes you contents to the core.

It is free as long as you dont have to spend a single cent, if you need to invite some people to get the bonus but you say it is not free then how referral bonus should work? I'm not sure which casino that give you bonus coin for referring people, can you mention the casino here? I have never heard any casino give us bonus just by inviting people only and the bonus has no value at all. Even if it is true, means that it is your own mistake to invite people for nothing. In short, you decided to participate in the worst referral program while there are some other better program that gives you good chance to earn decent amount of money if you can refer active players/whales.

You'll need to have hundreds of referrals to make it worthwhile. I have more than a hundred refs on my freebitco.in account and only 1 of them is still active [...] Making money this way is not very time efficient.

This precisely proves my point. I would say though that it's not efficient at all. Multi-level marketing schemes are only loss of time and, in many cases, loss of money as well. That is for 90+% of total amount of participants. To reach the top of the ladder is very difficult, if not impossible. And, while those from the top of the ladder live nicely on the efforts made by the ones below them, the other ones are sweating and working hard for finding other referrals or for completing various tasks assigned to their level.

What I said above is speaking at large about pyramidal schemes. In some cases, these schemes are Ponzi schemes, such as One Coin or Bit Connect and, in these cases, situation becomes even worst for participants.

My advice? Stay away from any MLM or referral scheme. You'd only save your time, neurons and money.

I can really agree here.
MLM should be avoided right away as it's only a scheme to enrich founders (and sometimes early investors, which is never safe of course, should one be trying to be an early investor). It's just not profitable and finally, people will lose money.
It's best to avoid MLM and don't participate in it, see also my topic MLM - a dangerous marketing stratgy

Referral rewards are too tiny or if they are too good to be true, they are not true (because it's not a vital concept for an operator to spend endless money on referral rewards after all). See point 2 in my topic above (2. MLM causes significant costs)
Instead of reflink, MLM and co., there are so many better ways to earn honest money.  Smiley

MLM is like a ponzi scheme. only those at the top are the ones earning decent money. as you go down the line, you are just like a pawn waiting for crumbs. but it is different from referral bonuses in casinos. some gamblers with good referrals (esp. high rollers) can really get a good passive income out of it.
but as just like any other bonuses inside the casino, you should not expect too much from it. especially if you know, you really don't have significant number of referrals.

If you do love inviting then getting those satoshis or bonuses would really be just a freebie but just like the rest been saying that it isnt something that you would really be that be mindful
if we do speak about the amounts been given. You are really that right that you should really be not that minding yourself on inviting just because you are aiming for some rewards.
Its not really that worth but there are people who do love on inviting just because they do really love on inviting someone despite of the amount that it gives.

In my opinion, I think referral bonuses are typically waste of one's time because of its processes that seems so impossible to claim and recently I came across a thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5437603.0 seeking for Casinos with paid referral bonuses and I tool out time to read most of the responses there and they all seem impossible to claim referral bonuses.
I wish to know if anyone has successfully claimed referral bonuses and how easy was the process and what Casino did you claim those bonuses

You'll need to have hundreds of referrals to make it worthwhile. I have more than a hundred refs on my freebitco.in account and only 1 of them is still active but I am lucky because he is constantly making bets, selling FUN tokens etc and generating me some nice sats every week. I agree with you in general though. Somehow I manage to collect these refs in the past but I probably wouldn't do it today because it is not worth my effort. Making money this way is not very time efficient.

This is not completely correct, you do not need hundreds of referrals to make it worth as it is not about how many referrals you have but it is more about how much is wagered by your referrals.
It will be useless to have hundreds or thousands of referrals but 99% of them is inactive like what you are experiencing.
I'm not surprising if you earn small on freebitcoin while you have hundred of referrals since most people joined freebitcoin for free satoshi only.
Something different may happen if you have hundreds of referral in gambling site because most of them must be people who at least want to gamble.

When it comes to gambling referrals it is not about quantity but the quality of the people you can refer, as many times the only thing you need to do is to refer a single whale and that can be more than enough to obtain good profits, however this is something difficult to do as whales prefer to play at the casinos in which they have already reached a high VIP status as this allows them to get huge bonuses compared to what they can get at other casinos.

This is not completely correct, you do not need hundreds of referrals to make it worth as it is not about how many referrals you have but it is more about how much is wagered by your referrals.
It will be useless to have hundreds or thousands of referrals but 99% of them is inactive like what you are experiencing.

I usually don't take part in referral events, since the actual bonus I get from gambling is a good time. Watching any match is really interesting when you bet on it Cheesy So, referral is actually, IMHO, a waste of time... Maybe it's useful for people trying to earn a thing by having many accounts in different casinos, but for fun it's not that interesting...
