Do Bonuses Actually Influence Gambling?

[bhadz]

Well I don’t know about others but for me, I care more or less about casino bonuses. In fact I’d rather prefer the casino keep their bonuses, because I’ve had some not so good experiences with bonuses, a lot of casinos’ bonus T&C are not really cool, and I just like go through the trouble, so I’d rather just stick to using the money I deposited, I kinda feel a lot more comfortable and confident that way.

You share the same experience with the most of us here. I think that we careless about bonuses but if they're given at ease by the casino, then we'd be glad to accept that. The problem is that, you've mentioned about terms and conditions and that's what stops us from preferring that. If they're achievable and it's not going to cause us so much then we'll be taking them. But to avoid such stress and troubles just to complete them, we won't mind about that for as long as we're enjoying and that doesn't change the routine that we do whenever we gamble.

I have realized that bonuses, cashback incentives, and promotions play a major role for gambling platforms to their users engaged and coming back on a regular basis. Some persons argue they would continue to play/bet regardless of incentives, while others say these bonuses add more excitement and make the experience feel more rewarding.

I want to ask, do you believe that majority of people would still regularly gamble if gambling platforms removes bonuses and promotions?

Bonuses are all about motivation and loyalty to the player. Casinos give players the illusion that they're not losing everything or that they're playing with a good discount. It's already been noted in the thread that the older the casino, the fewer bonuses they offer to players (except for VIP plans). Therefore, I'm convinced that a system of motivation and various bonuses is an integral part of today's casinos.

I believe gamblers will continue to gamble even without bonuses and promotions. Even before people accessed online gambling, gambling already existed, albeit done secretly. They didn’t offer bonuses and promotions, but the interest of gamblers remained strong. 
The promotions and bonuses offered by online casinos today, I think, are part of attracting new gamblers to their platforms and retaining existing ones. Everyone likes bonuses, regardless of the conditions set by the casino. Even you, who have decided not to gamble this weekend because you only have a little money, might change your mind after receiving a notification about a bonus. 
But I am sure that even if a casino doesn’t give bonuses, gamblers will still gamble.

Bonus, perks, incentives, etc., have always been the tempting tool used by casinos time immemorial, so if they are not working, casinos would not be using them. The only distinction here is that, human beings are different, and so are gamblers. By virtue, some would gamble with any casino they want to gamble with bonus or not, as some don't even want any bonus. Just like me, I don't think I've ever accepted a regular gambling bonus before. But, of course, some special type of bonus, yes, they are welcome. Another very good consideration is the Ts&Cs of the offering, if it's cool, I am sure more gamblers will opt in.

Bonus, cashback, and free spins play an important role in keeping all new and old gamblers engaged. It is true, I have many accounts on different casino sites, but I don't actively gamble on all sites. When I see any bonus offers or free spins being given, I start gambling again. Bonus offers help to engage many gamblers. But I think those who are real gamblers don't care about any bonus offers, so they will continue gambling even if they don't get any bonus, because many are addicted to gambling. Many gamblers consider it entertainment, but regular gamblers never get a bonus. Don't wait for incentives.

I do believe that even without bonus majority of people will still gamble. Therefore, bonuses, incentives are not what makes gambler to gamble frequently. Most gambling platforms do use this bonus, incentives to attract gambler to there platform. So if this bonuses are not there most of the gambler may not have petronise the gambling platform and this doesn't mean that they will not gamble in other gambling platforms. Therefore bonuses is not the main reason why people gamble frequently and gambler can still continue gambling without bonus es

Casino removed cashback/rakeback and other promos? Gamblers will still be around, because some of them really don't chase bonuses.
But the bonus promos mentioned will never disappear in online casinos because it's part of their marketing to attract customers to play, which determines whether the bonus is easy or difficult such as having to complete a high rollover.
For me the way the casino does this is pretty much the same as any other casino.

For sure bonus influence gamblers , because if you have lose for a very long time without winning and the casino don’t give bonus , if another casino offer bonus people will switch to that one .

On the other hand many really do not care about the bonus , with or without many will still gamble , many gamblers just want their favorite team to win , what they have could actually be enough, but I just notice most casino  Uses those bonus to keep gamblers , because such free bonus makes gamblers feel alright sometimes.

At first I am not being moved with those rewards because I know that they actually have their conditions which may not be suitable to me so while gambling, I mean to say while placing my bet I do not allowed those things to get me ride off while gambling instead I would try my best to make sure I stay and remain in my position without allowing any thing to distract me or makes me feels less important not to focused on my bet. Usually casinos uses all these to attracts gamblers to keep gambling on their site and when all these promotions are off you would see them going back to their favourite casinos/betting without any hesitation.

[Finestream]

Bonuses and promotions are just marketing tools to attract gamblers, not to stop them from entering gambling. So even if they would be out in the gambling casinos scenario, gamblers will continue betting because the thrill and excitement do not stop. And as long as they have available funds to bet, they will keep on betting while hoping that luck will favor them one of these days.

However, casinos would be more attracting profits if there are bonuses and promotions on the side. That's part of marketing, but that does not mean that without them, casinos will immediately lose their significance towards real gamblers.

Yes. I believe that all the bonuses, promotions etc. have a clear effect of gamification and encourage gambling more than if they didn't exist. But saying that they are the reason why most people regularly gamble is too much to say.

I personally don't pay too much attention to them, and I think that like me there are many others who simply focus their attention on games and ignore the bonuses and promotions.

you should know that not all gamblers that is interested in bonus, moreover this bonus offer does not even come all the time secondly the bonus they giving might not even reach the amount I bet with so definitely it won't affect me. Most of the times I don't use my bonus offer  due to how small it is, before you could bet with it you will have to accumulate odds before you can get a good potential return and sometimes they might even give you rules on how you're going to make use of the bonus like suggesting for you on the odds you will bet and the one's you can't bet this is what I hate most about bonus offer.

I have realized that bonuses, cashback incentives, and promotions play a major role for gambling platforms to their users engaged and coming back on a regular basis. Some persons argue they would continue to play/bet regardless of incentives, while others say these bonuses add more excitement and make the experience feel more rewarding.

Even if gambling sites remove bonuses their are gamblers who will still continue to gamble because they are not gambling because of bonus, they purely depend  with the amount they put in gambling. I know their gamblers who dont joke with bonuses,  it is not bad but the most important for a gambler to understand is never to allow bonuses increase the urge they have toward gambling.

Gambling is a game that one needs to be very conscious about everything because when you do things so obviously in gambling it can affect one negatively that cam cause bad result.

You already answered the question in your first paragraph and that is absolutely correct but there are more important things that help a casino gain more users than the bonuses. A casino that operate professionally, have active support and always resolve issues in line with their TOS without shifting the goal post, will always have loyal customers. If such casino adds some bonuses, that will be like added advantage for gamblers. However, there are instances people chase bonuses and that will attract them to a platform but my first point is what will keep the players loyal to the platform.

When first register on the site, are there any bonuses promised to beginners besides the high turnover bonuses? it's not available, meaning from the start, they don't need bonus to play.

Those bonuses are given to the users by the casinos just to appreciate them, rewards for always playing on their site. I don't believe it was all made just to trap users into not stopping gambling, considering that there was no bonus in the first place & they still played.

The only time casino gives bonuses to gamblers for no reason is when they are new, some casino use that for promotions to get people to their casino and they are not direct bonus, you must make some deposit within a threshold to be able to be able to get the bonus. If you don't have the money for deposits, you will not get any bonus. So with this conditions, I don't think bonus are that a big problem to influence people to gamble.

I have casinos which I have used before that I’m no longer new to them but I still get sometimes weekend, weekly and monthly bonus I just used to notice that I have missed some of the bonus because I’m not active or I don’t visit my mail frequently aside from that they still use to credit me with bonus.
