More Bonuses = Better Online Casino?

[Grace333]

Number of bonuses means nothing. It might show that casino has enough funds to share profit and be generous. It might also show that casino is struggling to get new customers and money, because customers had to fight for their bonuses by doing wagering tasks, what means casino isnt really giving anything easy or for free. Even hard to call casino as better than others, because various factors influence on that and gamblers treat casinos individually. For example I dont pay much attention to bonuses and does not make casino I gamble as worse than rest

You have a point, the casinos use bonus offers as a way to gain the attention of customers, this is all a strategy to grow their business and it works just fine for them because lots of players don't ignore bonuses when they see one. I normally take advantage of bonuses but I don't chase them from one casino to another because they aren't really worth chasing especially if the wagering requirements makes it difficult to win from. Gamblers that are experienced know that bonuses are not the main thing that needs to be focused on, there are lots of other features that are important.

Those bonuses in online casinos, cashback and free spins, are like the make-up that women use to make themselves more attractive to those who meet or look at them.

So of course, we men, when a woman's make-up is beautiful, we get easily attracted to them, so it's the same here in crypto gambling casinos, that's why the others are almost the same, just the level percentage is different. So I can say that it's really their marketing strategy.

Gamblers that are experienced know that bonuses are not the main thing that needs to be focused on, there are lots of other features that are important.

Indeed and hence the idea that the site that is given bizarre amounts of bonuses are the ones one should be going towards, is fundamentally wrong. Dont consider the bonus as the factor to choose but only as something that the site is using as a marketing tool.

Previously casinos would run trivia and quizzes in the trollboxes sponsored by the mods, so that only active people there will get some bonuses and tips, there was no such thing a bonuses being given monthly or weekly.

So understand what is good for yourself as the gambler and then decide what to use or ignore.

obviously, and there's nothing wrong with that because you men like well-made-up women
nothing changes in substance, the presentation changes
When you have to go to an event do you dress in shorts and a dirty shirt? No! you dress well but inside you are still you
so rightly so.

It is said to be very important, but it is not. However, when a bonus is given for free, whether it is a free spin or a deposit bonus, it is an attraction in itself for gamblers. 
Bonuses can be used to try out a new casino. Gamblers will consider it important because not many gamblers are willing to spend a lot of money just to try a new casino. 
After the bonus is used up, gamblers will compare it with their own experiences.

When a casino gives us a bonus, we should use it as intended, especially since it is free. However, a casino offering a lot of bonuses is not necessarily a valid sign that it is a legitimate site. We should investigate further and be more cautious about this tactic.
Many casinos have been giving huge bonuses to attract people to register on their sites. Then, once they reach the wagering amount or the target value they expected, they may suddenly close the site, which can be a sign of a scam tactic.

So, I can't say that a casino offering more bonuses means it is better than the others. In fact, some of these casinos may turn out to be among the worst in the end.

When choosing an online casino, how important are bonuses to you? Do you normally check the wagering requirements first, or does a big bonus percentage still catch your attention?

And would you rather take a smaller bonus with easy conditions or a huge bonus with tougher wagering requirements?

Bonuses are very important for me, it's one of the few things I check in newer sites before signing up, but i'm not willing to chase bigger bonuses if they come with stricter rules. Sometimes they're good with reasonable conditions, other times i'm better off skipping those with 20-30x wagering requirements.

I always take the small ones, because it could only be for a limited time and i'd rather not lock my bankroll for bigger bonuses unless I know I can clear it before the deadline.

Well, anyone will really skip claiming bonus with that much wagering requirement. 20-30x is too hard to reach just to claim and withdraw the bonus.

I experienced this one time to claim a bonus with a 40x wagering requirement. The amount is 500$, so I need to wager 20k$ before I can complete the requirement and withdraw the bonus. I only manage to reach up to 6x before my balance was drained. I really felt how hard it is to reach that 40x wagering requirement.

Luckily, that bonus is completely free and no deposit needed.

I agree. A bonus can be seen like a free food sample offering compared to the food court at the mall. Sure, you can try a small portion for free and you might discover that you actually like it. That leads you to buy the non-free larger version.

A casino bonus is really the same principle. It is advertising in disguise as a gift.

I'm a risk-taker, but I don’t like chasing the impossible. Get me a bonus, which the requirement is easier to meet than for me to be given a bonus which will take me hours without being able to fulfil it, and at the end of the day I walk away with game experience and hours wasted without a single withdrawal to account for. Sometimes I settle for no deposit bonus at all just for me to be able to play without too much attached to me.

Absolutely. the goal is just to get you to signing up for their platform and eventually you will still find out that they are not different from other casino that are not offering that kind of bonuses to her user. if what draws you to a casino is just the flashy bonuses they put out there, it only means that you can be easily blinded by things that looks good on the surface but inwardly are far from what they represent. a good casino is one that gives you the best of user experience and don't bring up stories when it is time to pay you. every other flashy thing is just done to compete with other casino that are rendering such or similar services.

[Anyarowell]

I think the bonus itself is less important than the conditions attached to it. A big percentage can look attractive, but if the wagering requirements is too high, it doesn’t really add much value. I’d rather have a smaller bonus with clear and reasonable terms.

It depends on which kind of bonus we're talking about, but given that most of them come with high wagering requirements ^{[like you said]}, those numbers have little to no impact on shifting my attention.

• And would you rather take a smaller bonus with easy conditions or a huge bonus with tougher wagering requirements?
  

  Easily achievable conditions are far better than a so-called huge bonus that can mess with your head.
  

[Mr. Magkaisa]

Theres a lot of bonus that served as trap, I was a victim of this before having 100% bonus on your deposit and I did not read it carefully and I need to have a 20x wagering.
When I Knew I immediately contacted the support but too late. all the winnings and wagered will be deducted on my deposit and nothing will be lef if they will  take out the bonus
There are some bonuses that will get you doom and there are some that can give you real dollars ... so always read the condition.

[Shinpako09]

It's not just about the bonus to say it's a better casino. Maybe a better bonus, but it doesn't mean it's a better casino already. There's withdrawal, support, etc. before you can say it is a better casino.

I may be one of the players who don't care about bonuses. If I'm not mistaken, I have never chased a bonus in my years of gambling, especially those welcome bonuses. What I only care about is winning. Bonus, from the word itself, is just a bonus for me. Whether I get it or not, it's not a big deal.

It's mostly promo contents and how to make users stay with them, that's why they offered all of these services. They know that people love it when they double their water opportunities. I don't care about all of those you mentioned because most of the time they are limited time and some are offer to new users. You can have all of these from a casino and they going to give you a reason to deny it or when you win they are going to give you a reason for cheating the system.

I'm very much interested in casino with tokens and two of them I know that are successful. The Shuffle and Rollbit, they distribute their casino tokens to top wagers account and these has nothing to do with whether you won or you lose, they give the tokens based and volume wager. The tokens are reserved as community tokens and sure if your wager is reasonable, you can get your shares. You can choose to hold it or sell and bring the money to water again.

Tbh I can’t blame these casinos for offering flashy bonuses or promotions, it is not as if they’re forcing anyone to sign up. It is just them strategizing ways to attract new customers and retain old/ current customers.

If you as a new customer pick interest in the bonus percentage, you can choose to ignore it or look beyond the promotion to see the full picture like terms and condition, then decide on your own if you want to use the platform or not.

Yes, this is the main issue. What we often forget while being greedy. You will never be given a bonus for free by the casino. There are specific terms and conditions attached to it, which many gamblers lose a huge amount of money in fulfilling. Externally, the same has happened to you, but you were hesitant to take the risk because the bonus amount was high. Many of us face this mistake and come to our senses after losing money.

However, the cash bonus is a different matter because it does not require the gambler's own money to be mandatory. But I am specifically looking into several casino bonuses. After depositing money there, you have to fulfill the wagering conditions with that money. This significantly increases the risk of players losing.

Bonuses is never a sign that a casino is struggling, it is a marketing strategy which is used by both leading casinos and new ones. In other words, bonuses does not define the integrity of a casino, they are just tools to attract players to their platform and some are used to reward loyal players who have met certain conditions. Rakebacks, cashback and even FS are some ways casinos offer bonuses to their customers to keep them motivated in using their platform. I don't chase bonuses but that does not mean I don't value them.

This is why they are luring gamblers out with big bonuses. They want you to play and play until you got hooked and forgot about your true goal which is to get the bonus from the casino without losing money. Big bonuses always had a string attached, even reputable casinos had the same strategy before like 300% deposit bonus with absurd wagering requirements. Always remember that casino want to make money, getting us hooked with attractive offers is part of their strategy.

This is why I don't care about attractive deposit bonuses unless there are fair requirements attached to it.

Not too surprised by the large number of bonuses offered by new casinos to attract the attention of gamblers. As they grow and continue to get many visitors the bonuses offered are also decreasing. Who is not tempted by a 100% deposit bonus, especially without a wager or only a 1x wager. But the truth is we're going to lose more than that.

I remain rational in choosing a casino, when they offer massive bonuses but on the other hand its reputation is much questionable. That could be an early warning. Hence prefer bonuses that are reasonable, not excessive and the reputation of the casino is already widely trusted by gamblers. Bonus for me No. 2, the main thing is the reputation about the guaranteed safety of the gambler's funds.
