You can read the link content to understand more, particularly the first page of the thread there. Merely looking at it. If someone has two accounts, and he is playing games with the two accounts, base on the "house edge", casinos are on the winning side so why still flag accounts for multiple accounts. If the user do not scam the casino and only playing with the accounts, is there any bad in the multiple accounts? If someone play with multiple accounts and wins, it is his luck at the time because there were times he losses all. And the casino didn't refund because he was using multiple accounts.

Many casinos give bonus to new users so they can try the casino and also get hooked. If you allow multiple accounts people will abuse this and profit from the casino marketing strategy.

Also they can't control how much you deposit and withdraw so its easier for money laundering to deposit a lot of money when the casino would be suspicious and ask for proof of funds since this is required by many country laws.

It's mostly about the bonuses that they're trying to hit and so they're making multiple accounts.

And the casinos don't like it because they're being abused and they have strong basis if ever they've found one user doing it against them.

While there could be a fairness issue with it, but you can't bend the decision of the casinos if a user has been found with this violation because it's in their TOS.

The reason why casino's are against multiple account has nothing to do with house edge or winning the casino. There are fraudsters and scammers using casino to launder money, so it is easy for the casino to track it when its just one account. Another reason is because of the bonuses and promotion they offer. To avoid abuse of bonuses, the casino do not allow multiple account. If not many users will keep creating account and passing KYC just to benefit from the promotion.

Yes, as others have said, it's all about bonus, as they can go and abuse it just like in the early days on crypto base casinos.

Or it cases of games like poker, they can collude with each other, thus they will have a unfair advantage. And then regulatory compliance, those body requires audit and perhaps one thing they wanted to know from this casinos or at least what they wanted to see is that there are no duplicate records, meaning no duplicate IP addresses.

So if bonus is removed blocking and flagging multiple accounts will stop? Because the flagging accusation has not mentioned abuse of bonus but once the user wins big amount, they would flag the account as multiple accounts and refused the user to withdraw but bonus abused was not mentioned. And if it is because of the bonuses then they should add it in the accusation. And must of those accounts have not received bonuses from those casinos.

Most casinos and sportsbooks don’t like it for a plethora of reasons. They don’t like people having multiple accounts because it can be used to cheat the system. People might try to claim the same bonuses more than once, avoid betting limits or hide their real identity if they’re banned or restricted.

Multiple accounts make it harder for casinos to track fair play and manage risk so they usually block or ban users who try to do it.

Aside the house edge, what of the abuse of the casino bonuses with multiple accounts, if casinos already stated that multiple accounts not allowed, why then should members engage in accounts farming on casinos.

House edge is not on all games so definitely casinos having house edge should not be free ticket to allow everything onnthe casinos.

Multiple accounts causes more harm than good, and if not for abuse what else wil someone be doing with multiple casinos accounts?

So if bonus is removed blocking and flagging multiple accounts will stop?

Since it is still you gambling with double/multiple accounts or single, you still use the same amount either as a whole or when you split.

The bonus part you are removing is the most beneficial aspect why we make choices on which casino to use, these bonuses also comes in VIP rankings, having more than one is exploiting the casino.

Gamblers will also exploit referral bonuses, since they become eligible to as many accounts, what do you think?

[uche6215]

Multiple accounts causes more harm than good, and if not for abuse what else wil someone be doing with multiple casinos accounts?

Please can you throw more highlights on this statement? I think this is one of the reasons of the creation of this thread, so you can tell us more about why it causes more harm than good. Let's remove bonus abuse because that is only one side of the story, any other reasons and if there is no one.

[Cryptomultiplier]

The question is why should a gambler have multiple accounts on a single casino platform? That's pure corruption and we sing aloud when politicians do same thing because they aren't supposed to, then why should you?

Casinos would obviously not be party to double accounts because of cases of fraud, abuse and because regulations demand so. The integrity of the casino business depends on customers being responsible and accountable that's why there KYC requirements to prevent or control such illicit behavior from gamblers.

Casinos these days have tools to detect multiple accounts and the penalty is outright ban, freezing of the accounts or in some cases lawsuit against the gambler caught in the act.

[adultcrypto]

There are many reasons casinos forbid the use of multiple accounts and the most obvious reason is that it can be used to exploit the referral system and other promotional programs of the casinos. If multiple accounts are allowed, an individual can create many accounts to exploit the entire programs thereby defeating the purpose. There could be other reasons that the casino may not want to be made public.

Most people who create multiple accounts are cheats, they do so to claim free offers. Even if they are not cheats, the casino must make sure that gamblers with multiple accounts don't claim free offers that is supposed to go round to different people.  Yea, greedy gamblers will be eliminated to ensure fairness.

Consider also the possible case of money laundering. One gambler having multiple accounts with one casino. The casino must protect its reputation by making sure that fraudulent gamblers don’t use their casino for such purpose. One way of doing so is by making sure that each gambler has only one accounts so the casino can track gamblers' activities properly.

New player bonuses are some of the most dangerous things that a casino can offer. Do you not see what happens on this forum because it allows multiple accounts? People are cheating here in every way possible, and there is not even any free money on the table. Unlike a casino which may offer bonuses, here you have to actually do something to make cheating profitable. Bad people ruin things for others. If people behaved in a civilized and ethical way, there would be no rules of this kind. Some users would have multiple accounts but they would never try to claim a bonus on multiple accounts (even if they could) because it is simply wrong.

Unfortunately OP, we live in a world where the majority is lowly educated and immoral. Simply bad people, and you will find more of these in the 3rd world but they exist also in the 1st world. Do you think that a junkyard crack whore wouldn't abuse a bonus on signup if she knew how?

The simple explanation is that you will not need a multiple account if not for the purpose of cheating the casinos via things like welcome bonuses, referral bonuses and other promotional bonuses. Without cheating in mind, a single account is enough for all gambling needs since you can do everything with that. In other words, why go through the stress of using another person for KYC in casinos that require KYC, when there is no benefit in view? The truth is that multiple account is bad and should not be allowed in casinos.

[Shinpako09]

Because of bonuses, welcome bonuses as well as others will easily get abused if they don’t implement such rules. Actually, even now, I’m pretty sure there are still people who use multiple accounts to abuse the bonus system. Imagine if they allowed it, players would just claim the welcome bonus, reach a certain level and wagering requirement, then get another bonus. They would keep doing it on different accounts, and the casino would be at a disadvantage, especially in the long run.

You have just made it very clear and the examples you gave here is the reason why casinos don't accept multiple accounts, because I have come to imagine the ensence of creating multiple account in casino? Isn't that same thing you're seeing in your first account that you're going to see in the second one? Then I came to realize that those who are attempting to create multiple casino account have a reason for doing that which is Best known to them, and yeah it could be that they are doing it for the sake of the bonus offer or maybe to launder money just as you said and the casino companies is fast enough to detect this because they know that if they should allow such that they might ruing thier reputation.

[Dr.Osh]

In my opinion, casinos prohibit the use of multiple accounts mainly because of the bonus factor, that's why I rarely claim bonuses when I want to start at a new casino, usually new users are offered lots of bonuses even though most bonuses have unreasonable requirements, and other factors, I believe a little that the possibility of new accounts being set to win at the start

[Orpichukwu]

So if bonus is removed blocking and flagging multiple accounts will stop?

And if it is because of the bonuses then they should add it in the accusation. And must of those accounts have not received bonuses from those casinos.

It's not just about the bonus; it's about the casino using their policy against their users. When the user is still not winning or is on the moderate side, the casino will not react. It's only when they have had a good winning, which will require investigation, that they will see that the user has violated the casino rules. It might not look very right, but as users, as long as a service has the rules that stand against multiple accounts, we should try to avoid it in order to be on the safer side.

Bonus abuse is indeed a major factor why casinos ban many accounts because they do not want the casino bonuses given to new users to be misused because they only want to get bonuses.

After all, bonuses always have terms and conditions, not just taking bonuses, in fact, almost every bonus that is given there are conditions that must be read.

Yes, the casino does not want to be harmed in the long run so they limit it to 1 account.
