How honest and transparent are casinos?

[Wiwo]

Is there any list of people to be considered when a bonus is given out ?

The answer to that questions yes, casinos may set aside a special bonus for some set of players on their site just as we have rank and the percentage payment as in form of rake back which are paid according to the VIP ranks and other membership rank on the casino, because you don't expect a casino to offer the same bonus to a newcomer and still give same to an already loyal high rank players, there must be separation in the bonus amount for both.

I don't think a casino will have to cheat their players over bonuses and if from your illustration,if the casino wants to give out prizes to over five hundred persons, there is no need to over exaggerate on the number of persons to be given the award because I think and at some point believe that casinos wouldn't want to risk their reputation over bonuses and promotions which aren't even mandatory.
I wouldn't say the casinos are cheating us because you need to think of how much money those casinos make from players and gamblers a day and that is why they have to spend so much on marketing and promotions to gain more visibility and players.

The only way to prove that the casino actually gives out the promised bonus is to take part in as many bonuses as possible and follow up on all the development through their channels to know if the bonus is truly distributed,  but the question for ops is that will he also account for those number of bonus that is not also claimed because we may have some cases that the casino will announce an amount of bonus but there won't be enough subscribers to claim them until the bonus time will expire.

Hmm, I think you guys are taking the drop features on casinos too far, one thing I believe is that the drop which happens in casinos chat box was never designed to be something really important, or a kind of giveaway that should really matter, drops are designed as a way of rewarding users who spend their time on the casinos chat box helping other and probably sharing ideas on what to bet and game to play, it is also a way of encouraging other users to become and stay active in the chat too.

It seems there is a misunderstanding here! OP is not talking about drops a.k.a chat rains which gives cents to those who are active on the chat box. He is talking about lotteries and free raffles where the winners get thousands of dollars. Such contests need to be transparent and the casino have to make it in a way that all the participants can verify the fairness of the results.
This is why I said it's better if a well known streamer hosts the event or simply use a pf system.

Not sure if they are legit or truly giving it away but the problem is that they are gathering players from this style and yes there are almost every gambling site gives this kind of information and luring.
how I wonder that would be the actual reaction of each players that they think being fooled on that way, because for me there are no assurance if this is right and true.
so don't fall into promises instead make sure you are dealing with honest site and not just to lure and run .

Every business uses some marketing technique to attract customers, it can involve bonuses, giveaways, trials, and the list goes on. Now, the customer that joins that business needs to make sure that they get what they were promised before joining, and if they get that, they wouldn't have any issues whether the company or the project is paying others or not.

I think casinos with a good reputation don't really have anything to prove since everyone knows that they do pay the bonuses, etc. that they promise but the platforms that are relatively new in the market are probably questioned for not being honest enough with their customers.

Well, i can only say one thing here. With dishonesty, the casino may gain few gamblers but in the long term they will lose the players and their business cannot survive and grow
On the other hand, if the casino is honest, the gamblers will be retained, they won't look for a new better casino and hence it will be good for the long term business.

Now it's up to the casinos how they want to operate and be successful in a world where there is a lot of competition. If a gambling casino is found to be dishonest, I am afraid gamblers will leave the casino forever, and it's hard to regain the trust of the casino.

[Silberman]

Exactly. No matter how big or small the money in the casino owner's pocket is, if they plan to cheat and take advantage of the customers they have, they'll do it regardless of the status and the reputation of their casino. Although of course, it still is a good rule of thumb to only choose casinos with a large treasury for other reasons such as fast and safe withdrawal and such. But I digress, there are very little chances of Casinos, especially ones that are reputable enough to garner a wider range of audience to cheat on their players. That's just a recipe for failure in my opinion and would equate to them losing their playerbase when found that they are indeed committing these crimes.

There is not much of a reason for a casino to do this, even if a casino owner thinks they can away with cheating their customers, someone will find out this information and then everything they have worked so hard for will disappear, as gamblers will immediately think that if a casino owner is willing to cheat them in this way then they will think about the many different ways in which the casino can cheat them and then never play there ever again.

for a casino that starts from scratch until it becomes popular and reputable, they will think long term if they want to deceive their customers. because casino owners know that establishing a casino and gaining the trust and good reputation of customers is very difficult and not easy to get and if they are caught cheating their customers, they will certainly lose their reputation.
from other things, casinos that already know their own struggles when starting a casino from small to large, they will never have to cheat their customers. because they know that cheating a customer with only a small amount but losing their reputation is very bad.

And TRUST is very important in casinos because gamblers won't stay and never use their platform or site if they know there is inconsistency and cheating, they going to leave and spread those things to others. So, if I am running a business like this why should I have to do that which in fact, we know that I was still profiting without cheating? I should care more about reputation and let trust built because it returns back good to us as well in the future.

Honesty is not enough to keep or retained online gamblers, not all people are that loyal, and this is money making we talking about, where everyone are free to do what they feel like.

A gambler can decide to leave or abandoned a online casino if they are not making any more achievement, for example, if a gambler keep losing on a online casino they will want to try other casinos.

A gambler can also decide to leave an online casino with high reputation if the games on the casino platform is no more fun or if the platform lacks more game, most smart gamblers look for fun more than doubling their money, and the only way to keep the fun in check is playing new fun games.

[Alpha Marine]

Personally, I pay very less attention to bonuses. Provided the casino is honest enough to give me my winning and they don't do any shady things with my account or fund them I'm cool. I only use casinos I trust.

There's actually no way to know if they actually keep their word but I believe it's just a marketing strategy.  They may actually give to some customers as you said and I also believe they will give to their regulars. Casinos make a lot of money so giving out bonuses to their regulars shouldn't be an issue for them because that money is just peanuts compared to what they make daily.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

I don't know casinos are viewed as a bad actor in the cryptocurrency market but for the fact that gambling have helped to solve so many mental stress issues and other work related symptom it quite unfair to refer to casino as questionable business not doubting the fact that there are also several negative implication in gambling such as gambling addictions.

There are some high profile religius leader that preach against gambling, whether with crypto or without it, they say it is haram which means it is forbiden for the youth to endulge in the activity; Gambling has also help some people kill time and also fun, put the money picture and you will find out that so many lives has been lost as a result of gambling, all human on earth don't have the brain to accept loss when it occur to them.

So if we must discuss reputation, because even though the house system is designed to favour the house edges,  and players only when there is high luck, but then players are still patronising most new and old casino won't means the reward.

The devil you know is better than the angel that will deceive you, some people stick to one particular gambling for some reasons but all gamblers don't joke with security, anything that will affect their balance, they don't joke with and other minor features and that is why I think gamblers stick to one casino.

   -  Here in our country, gambling was prohibited and there were still raids in various places, but now it is very different because before it was done secretly, now because of the technology we have in this era, it is openly even campaigned by well-known influencers on the social media platform.

And many lives have been destroyed by gambling, in fact, because even minors do it without parental guidance and can also be seen on Facebook because of irresponsible influencers who care nothing but to make money and deceive their people followers.

I guess your region is similar to mind and as a matter of fact, gambling is still not legal business in Nigeria unless for a few number of cryptocurrency gambling that do not originate from my country but are not restricted, we still have access to them and also a few central fiat gambling that is popular only via social media and influencers have constantly promoted them.

 Some of that casinos even have a bad reputation, and because of that many have been affected negatively because of their activities.

But then online cryptocurrency casinos have just gain popularity during and after the covid-19 lockdown and since then we have not had horrible experiences like what we used to have years back with traditional gambling houses that have ruined many Lives

Not easy to figure out how many users are able to claim such codes shared on the social media but time limit can be used to track when the bonus drop availability ends. Some big platforms put wager requirements for claiming code drops so it is not as easy as it sounds to get all data who claimed it. If you have doubts specific casino cheats on the numbers, you may ask from support to prove marketing trick has not been used to convince users, IMHO.

Even if you ask their support, for sure they can manipulate the data as long as they benefited on this.
There’s no way to know this one, and better to ignore this instead of focusing on a things that we cannot control. Maybe there’s limit for every promotions or none at all, once you are able to claim the reward then your concern should be answered, many site will not ruin their reputation by just having this promotions being manipulated, let’s give the benefit of the doubt to the top sites.

Just like I have explained it is not easy to prove your argument. Finding real data then comparing results take a lot of time effort which can be absent for majority of the gamblers.

My take on this argument is that both sides have their valid points, but no one should be completely right about theirs. My reason is that there are some casinos that are thorough and fair with their dealings, and they will give you the proof of what you need as it is. But some will never do that or even manipulate the one they provide you.

The bottom line is that casinos will always be casinos, it's not for the faint in mind. Whether they are completely fair or not, just know your strategy and principles that gives you some leverage to make money or quit if you know it's not for you.

[ethereumhunter]

Some casinos work by cheating small money so it's still money for the casino. They will not hesitate to take it from gamblers by beating them in gambling games. We often hear that many people have experienced defeat at gambling and even though they took promotions and got bonuses, many gamblers have lost. So if the casino is a scam, the casino will use all means to take the customer's money and even if the customer complains about the problem to the support service, it will not be resolved properly.

The thing is....
They'll get to incentivise a little cash into anyone that gets registered; more like a jetpack or a starter pack.... That ofcourse will entice any regular gambler ASAP.
Now, on the other way round, they'll also devise a means to 'em back; via loses and unduly overcharge or combo minus, depending on what the case might be. It's a give and take process yunno...

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

That's right what you say. The casinos know how to take gamblers money slowly or fast. Casinos give bonuses to entice gamblers to come back and deposit more money and after that, they take all the money at once. And for gamblers who use big money, the casino will play on the feelings of gamblers by making them almost win big money. That will make gamblers even more interested and eager to try to win big money.

I rarely take part in bonus programs, but it is important for me that the draw is fair. The prizes were small, but they were credited in full, and it's cool, it's like a small deposit bonus. Most often,new casinos launch a lot of promotional companies and it is impossible to track their transparency, since the project does not yet have a reputation and only live reviews can prove it.

Yes, that's why some new casinos hired influencers so they can be promoted in different channels that might help them to have users. Before , I heard there are some twitch streamers who promotes some gambling activities . Transparency must be one of the main thing that an online gambling website should focus , no gambler wants to be cheated of course.

Right. Casinos who aim to be bigger won't do cheating. I think most successful casinos gained credibility because they have strict rules and regulations to ensure fairness and transparency in their operations. In fact, some even hire third party companies that will audit and verify their games' fairness and randomness.  A casino's success is built on its reputation for fairness and transparency and if their customers perceive that they are being cheated more other customers will eventually catch on and stop playing at that casino. Anyway, not cheating in your customers is the right thing to do.

Personally, I pay very less attention to bonuses. Provided the casino is honest enough to give me my winning and they don't do any shady things with my account or fund them I'm cool. I only use casinos I trust.

That's admiring of you. You know what you want and you know what your limits are, so regardless what a casino will offer, you won't get manipulated to bet more and more. I'm not sure if it is just me but I  think casinos use their facilities like offering players free food or hotel rooms can encourage them to stay longer and gamble more or giving them alcoholic drinks because sometimes those who are under the influence of alcohol are more likely to make impulsive decisions and gamble more than they otherwise would. These bonuses or loyalty programs are used as well to encourage players to gamble more because they'll be given a freebie for reaching a certain level of play or may be offered special perks such as access to exclusive tournaments.

There are reputable casinos that aren't afraid to show off how their bonuses and events draw run. They do it through live streams or post the winners in their community. When it comes to new casinos, I don't think streamers are reliable or even providing real or trusted results because they can fake it since they are being paid and their main goal is to promote the casino to attract more players. New casinos would fake even their transparency to gain the trust of most players.

Duelbits is one of the few reputable casino that always deliver a fair and transparent draw to all their giveaway. They always announce their winner to the public same with their grand event like Christmas and Easter Giveaway that always being drawn live with the use of livestream. In fact there’s already some user here that manage to win on live draw on previous giveaway.

I encounter casino that do the shady draw for the result and most of them are just new or they don’t have a decent number of players that makes them so pathetic to cheat their own giveaway.

[panganib999]

Reputable casinos wouldn't be so wise to do skimp on rewards as they know the most how these things retain and entice customers. If they're found to be cheating on the very thing that keeps most players in their site, you can bet your sweet bippy that everyone will just start flocking towards their competitor. The casinos know this much, and so if you think the casino you're playing with is doing this, then maybe you should rethink your choices and switch! Loyalty is very rarely rewarded in this industry anyway  so it wouldn't hurt to switch to a different bookie, a different site, or a different casino. If it's going to give you the peace of mind that the casino's not pulling tricks on you or whatnot, then a switch is most necessary.

Along with good casinos there are some scam projects in the market where it is their job to cheat the gamblers. There are others some schemes that try to make foolish to the gamblers with various conditions. However, there are good and reliable gambling sites that are ready to provide maximum benefits to the gamblers. But everything is depends on which site a gambler chooses. Since there are many competitors in gambling market, those who enter the market with good intention always try to be honest and transparent to the gamblers.
