Do we have gamblers here who actively hunt bonuses?

[el che]

I personally love to follow and keep track of all the promotional campaigns across different bookmakers and casinos. Finding a promotion that gives you an edge against the house is one of the few ways to beat the casino. For example, leading up to and during this World Cup many casinos and sportsbooks launched some juicy promotions to attract players. I ended up signing up for quite a few new platforms just to exploit these offers, it was 100% worth it as it boosted my bankroll but I also discovered a couple of new platforms that I've now added to my list of frequently used bookies.

Many bookmakers ran a promo where if you placed a $20 outright winner bet on the tournament, you would receive a $5 free bet for every single goal your selected team scored throughout the World Cup. Others had a bet of $50 outright and get a $10 free bet per goal. I placed four or five different outright winner bets on different teams across four or five different casinos, then I've been flooded with free bets throughout the entire tournament and I'm still receiving them since my outright picks included France, Argentina and Spain, in total I invested about $100 across those outright bets and up until now I have received over $300 back in free bets alone.

So yes, if you read the terms carefully and target the right high value promotions, bonus hunting is definitely profitable!

So I’m just curious, does anyone here really focus on hunting these deposit bonuses and find it profitable?

As far as I know, there are many people who hunt for bonuses offered by online casinos. Talking about those benefits, I don't know, only those who hunt for bonuses know that. but my experience in using bonuses as a base bet, honestly I have no luck.

The reason is, gambling bonuses are very diverse, they have game rules that make me dizzy after winning, there are betting requirements to be able to withdraw winnings and so on, in essence I am still at a loss when using the bonus.

I am sure that if you want to experience the bonus better, you will know for yourself how the bonus is treated for the users themselves, doing it and experiencing it yourself is more enjoyable, you will feel the good and bad of the bonus.

Aside bonuses, if casino want gamblers to remain active in using their platform they need to provide good customers services and ensure their customers are treated fairly. I certainly won't have a second thought to exit a casino or a betting platform with mischievous act like denying players their payout with unnecessary reasons or even their bonus. I've had an experience with a casino that after making my deposit to claim their bonus i was denied the bonus without any valid reason or explanation.

I don't hunt for bouns , because I believe those bonus attract other things,there are a lot of Casion who offers such bonus ,so hunting it you will end up in so many Casion ,I used to be excited about it but not anymore again ,I don't gamble because of the bonus offer,placing your mind so much on bonus, you may  end up in different Casion site,and sometimes having access to it can be a little bit difficult,so it's best one don't chase or hunt for those bonuses.

Exactly and it can also make one to become addicted to the game because its a trap that lure people into gambling and before they know it, they will start spending more time and more money into it. That is why I completely agreed with you that chasing or hurting for bonuses can actually damage their lives as things might be going the way they don't planned and casino bonuses has a unique way they do lure people into betting in their casino and if one its not careful enough, they can fall into their traps as they might scam them or makes their stay difficult one for them both in their withdrawals or depositing.

Many who are addicted started from chasing bonuses,and some Casion has a way of luring people into gambling,just as you have said if cares is not taken ,one many go overboard and spend more than their expectations,if they are not discipline,no essence of hunting for bouns instead you stick to the one you have been on , sometime even if you win from the bonus they many give you time to withdraw and you many end up using that same money to gamble more and lose out.

Of course, bonuses are not special for addicted gamblers. Because they will not withdraw the bonus easily and will start betting again and will lose again due to wrong bets. Therefore, discipline in gambling is a very big and special quality. If a gambler does not have proper self-control, then he can lose any money due to wrong decisions. If there is no self-control, gamblers make wrong decisions based on emotions in the hope of big returns. But disciplined gamblers can withdraw any bonus very easily. Because disciplined gamblers never stop withdrawing and go gambling again, no matter how long it takes to withdraw.

For those who have tried it, is hunting deposit bonuses from new casinos really profitable?

I stopped doing it because the wagering requirements often prevented me from claiming the bonuses, resulting in me losing money instead of winning them. From then on, I lost interest when I saw wagering requirements that were difficult to meet. Yeahh I'm bad at chasing wagering requirements, for example like a $20 deposit bonus must wager $200.

Bonuses are attractive but a on a closer look you will find out that they are not entirely free because of their various degrees of requirements so if a gambler is chasing bonuses they shouldn't be too excited when they see a juicy one they should also consider the requirements. Presently I'm not into chasing of bonuses, if I want to explore a new casino it wouldn't specifically be because of their welcome bonus because if I observe closely their will always be a clause before I will withdraw wins. Bonuses are attractive but we should concentrate on our bankroll for gambling so you will know that if you win there won't be any restrictions to get credited and withdrawals.

It's okay to hunt bonuses depending on the wagering amount, but if the required amount is too high, then definitely we should avoid it than look forward on it.

After all, casinos are only doing this for their own advantage, so its clear that even if we comply with the wagering amount, the chances of winning is still poor. They won't dare giving us free money, but if we bite with their offer, it may turn that we are the ones giving free money to them.  So I'm not really into this hunting bonuses, I go for new casinos also but I don't think chasing bonuses is a good idea.

[cakir1]

Of course mate. That will not be lost and in fact, one of it was me . I'm not usually after the deposit bonus though but only those bonus that are completely free and only has a very low wagering requirement. That is of course for me to not waste time because the chance for me to withdraw something out of them were also high.

If ever I participate in a deposit bonus, that will also be the ones that don't have wagering requirements, or if I already complete the wagering requirements and I only require to deposit some amounts to finally cash out my money. It may seem scam at first but there's actually legit casino that has this weird rule like that.

Well its part of the marketing of any casino however users might be tempted in these offers and perks. Bonuses are one thing to be great as a benefit of a casino and likely one of the reason to used it.

But not for all cause sometimes the terms are usually in their favour. Youc can feel it if the bonuses looks transparent and not just some cash grabs or bait for us to use them. Spending actual bonuses might be good when you are new to platform cause it might change the perspective and feedback on their platform.

It's quit understandable that every business has a marketing strategy,bonus is also one marketing strategy that can bring more people into the gambling site, because many like free things , forgetting even on a free table there is a price to be paid,all the same ,I only wish people are discipline enough to know what to do,and not get carried away with every free thing that comes on, gambling requires so much discipline,so bonuses should not be the reason why one jump from one casino to another.

[Vaculin]

I do hunt bonuses before, it made me more excited to explore new casinos and bet on them. But what I realized is that I'm only giving them free money when there are no guaranteed returns. That's when I stop hunting for bonuses, it only made me lose my money without making sense.

Now, I still go for new casinos and enjoy their exciting games. But I don't chase bonuses anymore, even if the required wagering amount is not that high. Still, that would be a loss of money if ever.

[topbitcoin]

It is possible that it is still there and I do not want to be naive because on several occasions I have also tried to do it but have not made this a priority.

When there is if in accordance with what I want where the promotion supports to get a bonus and I want to try then I do it regardless of whether in the end it works or not it's a matter of later.

It's just that this is very rare I do because for me the bonus is not everything because gambling we also still have to be in control so don't let bonus hunting actually make us pass the gambling limit besides that I also want to play as an initial intention not as a bonus Hunter so even though I have several times followed things like this it's just that I don't make this as my reference in gambling.

[Floxynice]

We know that there are a lot of new casinos now, and even the existing ones are very competitive when it comes to promotions. Most of them offer deposit bonuses just to attract new players and make them try their platform.

So I’m just curious, does anyone here really focus on hunting these deposit bonuses and find it profitable?

I know some bonuses look attractive, especially when a new casino gives a big welcome bonus or deposit match. But of course, there are usually wagering requirements and other rules before you can withdraw. So it is not really free money. Still, maybe there are gamblers who know how to choose good deposit bonuses, read the terms carefully, and use them to get some advantage.

For those who have tried it, is hunting deposit bonuses from new casinos really profitable?

Ofcourse people create multiple accounts just to claim bonuses. The casinos are aware of this that is why they put in measures to make sure that the bonuses are not abused. This is not something new, gamblers do it alot and I think that it is profitable that is why they are always hunting bonuses, and the casinos on the other hand are also trying to make sure gamblers don't earn unjustly.

[Myleschetty]

I believe that 63 percent of gamblers worldwide hunt bonuses, even though there isn't a single statistic on the subject.

How did you believe then if there is no statistic to back it up?

I simply calculated it based on the fact that all gamblers enjoy receiving freebies, particularly when their loyalty and participation in casino games are rewarded

Bonus are appreciated actually but not all type and  I don’t think gamblers really hunt for the type OP mention that much..

Maybe I don't understand the bonus the OP is talking about.

yet, who knows , you could be right, I don’t have the stats to back mine up either.

Before I completely started gambling online, I did my research on how to be a profitable gambler. One of the things I read was that gamblers should think about using casinos that offer bonuses.

I don't think it's the bonus, it's what the player does with it. If you have made a plan to make a deposit and know what you are getting into with the bonuses, then it can be beneficial. The issue is, people sign up for multiple casinos just because of great promotions and without reading the conditions or playing within a specific budget. That behavior can be easily understood to cause unnecessary gambling and disappointment. A well disciplined gambler should never make the decision to play because of a bonus. And should always consider bonuses as an added element of the game.

[fruktik]

For me, I consider bonuses to be nothing baits, used to attract people love freebies. People would only get to realize how useless bonuses are when they really see that meeting their requirements of cashing out from bonuses are pretty high, and if one invests the time they use of meeting bonus requirements on gambling with their own money, they’ll literally make more profits than wasting their time and skill on bonuses.

Why is it a worthless bait? There are casinos that offer daily free spins. The higher your account status, the more you get. There are no conditions for withdrawing winnings. Withdrawals are possible without any problems. There's only a minimum. These are all minor details. If you want to find a decent casino, you shouldn't have any problems with this forum. It's all about the desire.

[angrybirdy]

Hunting bonuses imho is a stupid idea and way to gamble. It can be tried once or twice to get them, or during special events when rules and wagering requirement are simple. But on a regular basis that is a huge waste of money and time. We have already talked about how difficult it is to complete wagering requirements. Only bonuses that are worth hunting are from tournaments where gamblers compete who wager most (and even then it is risky). With enough funds gambler can try to win it. Some users from forum have managed to be rather successful in such tournaments, but with time they got banned anyway.

Yeah right, Much better to hunt a legit gambling sites that will surely provides a good services and prizes rather than hunting bonuses, one reason to avoid bonus hunting is the risk of scams. there's so many fake bonus promotions and phishing links are shared across social media platforms, tempting users with offers that seem too good to be true. These scams can lead to stolen personal information, financial losses or even compromised gambling accounts, sooo, Instead of chasing every bonus you see, focus on playing responsibly and using trusted platforms where your time and money are better protected.

I agree with you. Gamblers should not gamble with the expectation of bonuses and with them because if a gambler reads the terms and conditions that casinos add more than once, they may not be interested in the bonus. Gamblers may not benefit much by becoming a member of the casino through signing up and fulfilling the requirements given by the casino for the bonus. Rather, I think that gambling normally and with discipline without expecting bonuses will benefit you from gambling.

[junder]

I like to do slot type gambling and I find many casinos that surely they do the same thing i.e. marketing in the usual way or offering bonuses and promotions. That is a natural thing because indeed the casino is a business that is built for profit and the way it is marketed is reasonable. Apart from that although I like to gamble and often find casinos that offer bonuses, but I did not take it and the reason is short because lazy with the rules that are different.

[AprilioMP]

For those who have tried it, is hunting deposit bonuses from new casinos really profitable?

The deposit bonus I received also didn’t quite give me what I wanted. I tend not to think about bonuses, even though deposit bonuses are part of the casino’s marketing strategy. Rather than a deposit bonus, I’d rather wait for the weekly bonus—even if the amount isn’t much—depending on my playing pattern over the course of a week. Even though it’s not much, that bonus should be viewed in a positive light. At least it can be used for betting.

I think casino deposit bonuses aren’t something you should wait for if your goal is simply to play and enjoy the games while waiting to see if you’ll win.

I also agree that sometimes it's not worth the effort to do these bonus hunts, particularly because many are wagering based, which might not be easy. Bonuses do help when there are special events or tournaments, but they shouldn't be the deciding factor when you select a gambling website. But theres also the possibility of being enticed to fake promotions. And phishing scams that can target players seeking easily obtained rewards to me it's more. Beneficial to stick to legitimate gambling sites that have a solid history, a fast payout tempo and fair games rather than all the bonuses they offer.

I'm actually very cautious when it comes to new websites. Most of the time, I don't visit them because of attractive bonuses, I do it only after seeing genuine reviews from real users.There are simply too many scams designed to steal personal information, including banking details and card credentials, through phishing schemes and other fraudulent methods.That's why I prefer to wait until a platform has built a trustworthy reputation before using it.
