Targeting vulnerable gamblers

[Wiwo]

Do casinos specifically target vulnerable gamblers? When I say vulnerable gamblers, I mean those who tend to gamble a lot and usually loses more. Casinos surely have the statistics for this and they can identify which users might be more vulnerable. My question is do they take advantage of this and show them promos that will make them want to gamble more? Are they more persistent towards these users? Or do they just give everyone the same kind of promo and treat everyone the same no matter what?

And if casinos really do treat vulnerable gamblers more, is it ethical?

What casino target at is the available markets, just like every other businesses, casinos will always target where the marker is but let be specific in this because, both all the class of people gamble.

The rich forks gamble same way that the poor and vonurable gamble too, this have made the argument of which class in the society gamble more, but in the end we have discovered the obvious fact.

Casinos might choose to give you a free spin or bonus based on your commitment and how frequently you gamble in their casino. However, your tier also depends on how often, you will get bonuses from the casino.

Some casinos, when you are in the VIP tier, at the end of the week, they give you back some percentage from your losses, so that you can gamble and wouldn't feel your losses that much.

Yes, you made an important comment. Nowadays, many online casinos offer their customers various bonuses or incentives based on their regular play, such as free spins, cashback or VIP rewards. While these offers may seem attractive, it is important to remember that casinos are in business, and ultimately they want to make a profit. Therefore, it is wise to understand the hidden terms and conditions behind any bonus or reward. Playing for fun is fine, but playing responsibly is most important. Thank you for your comment.

Casinos know who their players are who often play on their platform and this is what they can focus on so that these gamblers come back to them again and again. And if the players are newbies on their platform, the casino or house can immediately give them a win so that the players think that winning at the casino is easy.

This is how they trap their players and this is where these gamblers start coming back. And sometimes they will also give a bonus depending on what they want
to give so that their gambler will be even more confident to come back.

This is a more reason they have created casino games that will captivate the minds of the gamblers to keep gambling at the expense of them loosing a lot of funds, it doesn't seem like  that's what they've programed to achieve but it's a clear picture that vulnerable gamblers will always arise and the casino would get profits from this means but they don't actually use it as an advantage.

Casinos are not just targeting a particular group of people, their target is the society at large, both from different countries and the country they are operating from. The features and services of different casinos is not limited to only vulnerable gamblers but to every current and newly registered users, although some promoting are limited to newly registered users but many other bonus are also enjoyed by old members. Casino owners didn't know any vulnerable player before starting the casinos, so every service they designed was for every customer.

I do not agree that casinos target vulnerable gamblers because all bonuses and promos are open to all and sundry. The promos and bonuses are incentives to encourage gamblers to sign up with them, stick with them, or wager more with them, as the case may be. And if gamblers cannot resist the urge to gamble when they see such offers, then it's on them.

Casino sites mention everything for the purpose of their ToS and they continue their marketing in different ways and it is normal that they will do it. But here if a gambler comes here and gets addicted and starts losing a lot of money then it is completely his own personal responsibility. Casino sites will target any user in any way and try it, it will definitely be ethical. You are a human being and you have the ability to understand what is good for you but if you see an advertisement without doing any research yourself and jump there and face any loss then in that case you have to take the entire responsibility yourself and you cannot blame that platform for it because it is completely your failure.

Unfortunately, yes , casinos do specifically target vulnerable players. With the help of data, they can easily identify those who lose frequently and offer them personalized promotions to keep them playing. Not all users are treated equally, because the biggest profits come from those who lose the most.

Ethical? Highly questionable. Instead of protecting vulnerable players, casinos often push them deeper into the problem.

I believe it's the way the games were wired, I think the games monitors each gambler and adjust based on how often the gambler plays, this is just my opinion because you will become harder to predict if you don't gamble every time, this is why I've recommended to some gamblers to reduce their gambling time or else the game can actually read you in and out.

Those who spent too much time on gambling are exposed to every gone wrong things in gambling, from addiction to continues losses, they will later start asking how they get here, this is why I won't ditch away what you are talking about OP, those machines in casinos monitors the gambler and they adjust based on that.

Like I've said I could be wrong but this is just what I have experienced since few years that I've started to gamble, the lesser time you spent the harder you are to be read and probability of winning is a bit better than someone who knows no break to gambling.

Casino business is like any other business, when you gamble frequently in the casino and lose a lot of money to them, the casino will definitely look at you a little differently. This is certainly ethical and there is nothing wrong with this, because your business strategy must be good for your business. So there is no ethical harm or wrong for casino owners to provide benefits to risky gamblers.

I am confident that casinos do not identify their customers' data based on vulnerabilities that can be exploited by the casino to generate more profits from their customers. Casinos offer certain promotions or bonuses based on the account ranking achieved by the customer. Although there are also casinos that specifically provide promotional bonuses to customers from certain regions, through the identification of fiat deposits. Such practices are normal for casino strategies to offer their customers specific promotional or bonus offers. There is no intentional targeting of specific customers to make them lose more.

My answer is no. Casinos do not target any vulnerable gamblers. Rather when a gambler visits several carcinos Heights and accept cookies on their website,  they are automatically shown gambling ads. That's is part of marketing strategy that all businesses online who are looking for more  customers do. Casinos don't have any statistics of vulnerable gamblers. It is just marketing and the decision to gamble there is up to the player.

Just like any other business, the more you patronise them the greater the bonuses and discounts. I don't think casinos have any mechanism to target vulnerable gamblers. But they just target people who bet more and give them more benefits to encourage them to continue.

It is ethical to present your offer to someone you have observed who can afford it. But it will be wrong to take advantage of someone with an abnormal gambling behaviour.  An example is someone that have applied for self-exclusion in a casino. If the casino fails to process and implement his request,  it means they are taking advantage of his vulnerability.

Free games are offered to gamblers based on their gambling activities and how much they deposit, just like every other normal business it's normal to give VIP treats to customers that are encouraging the business lol. This is a strategy that keeps the game going, the casino doesn't really care about the best interests of the gambler, they're just out to make sure that their business keeps on  being profitable to them

[acroman08]

What I noticed when I left fiat casinos was that they were sending me bonuses that they were not sending me before. I left before they began sending me the bonuses because they just want me to come back gambling.

I remember reading something similar to this before, and the gambler took legal action against the casino. If I remember correctly, the gambler unsub from the casino's "promotional emails" so he wouldn't get any more of those emails from them, but it didn't stop, and he mentioned that he was getting promotional emails that he never got before to tempt him to gamble again.

Casinos don't set their targets on this, as a matter of fact some will encourage for responsible gambling, but if some gamblers are found in  such manner, they wont mind for anything as long as they are not violating on their rules, every other thing is left for them to decide and choose as they wanted to gamble, all the casino will be after is the traffic and how they could cover a particular geo they supported and provide gambling service to a number of people.

Casino target are looking for loyal players who willing to playing at their casino very often that's why mostly the current online casinos are offering some promo even they will give to their loyal costumers special treatment such as cashback or VIP members and the casinos know who is these players based on their statistics but i don't think those casinos will considers them as vulnerable gamblers or not and i am sure their attention is same for each players regardless those are vulnerable gamblers or not because as long as the gambers playing regularly they will gets the benefit which given by the casinos

I dont think so. there is no such thing as vulnerability in gambling. everyone is treated equally by the casino, bonus are given to players as a way of attracting customers to their gambling site. sometimes this casino usually give welcome bonus at signup to their website. the fact is that the casino will somehow make profit from their customers who loses more, but that does not mean that the casino is targeting any vulnerable gambler  

My question is do they take advantage of this and show them promos that will make them want to gamble more?

i dont know where you got your information from, like i said there is no such thing, everyone is treated equally.

Or do they just give everyone the same kind of promo and treat everyone the same no matter what?

exactly what i am talking about.

Gambling is a market where fresh seekers of luck come up everyday to try multiples of tricks and strategy or even change casinos to achieve their goal. Casinos know of this competition and place themselves into giving incentives to improve playing time and experience. Real casinos offer free foods and hotel rooms to hold players, and the online settings focus more bonuses. New player who don't understand how it goes would likely want to try them out for the first time.

Vulnerable gamblers will still receive bonuses and promotions.

You have just registered at a new casino and are offered many deposit bonus promotions.
Those who are vulnerable to gambling will usually be given bonuses and offers for tournaments by the casino to entice them to participate.

Casinos know which offers are for vulnerable gamblers and which are not; they have all the data, so they will continue to offer them in different ways.
